232: The Root Chakra in Survival Mode - From Hypervigilance to Trust

Why do we feel such a strong need to stay in control, prepare for every possibility, or constantly scan for what could go wrong? In this first episode of our new series, The Survival Strategies of the Chakras, we explore how the Root Chakra develops protective patterns like control, rigidity, and hypervigilance in an effort to keep us safe. You'll learn why these survival strategies form, how they influence your thoughts and behaviors, and why they persist long after the original threat has passed. Most importantly, we'll discuss how to move from fear-based control to grounded trust by helping your nervous system rediscover what true safety feels like. If you've ever wondered why relaxing feels harder than staying prepared, this episode is for you.Theme Music by Daniel Michael
