7 Useful Sacral Chakra Affirmations for Emotional Balance and Pleasure
Explore your second chakra's attributes, learn to maintain its balance, and unlock its potential through activation techniques and affirmations.
Dear Spirited Earthling,
Your second chakra is located in your lower abdomen, below the belly button, known as the sacral plexus. Appropriately, this chakra is commonly referred to as our sacral chakra.
In Sanskrit, it is named Svadhisthana which means ‘sweetness’. This chakra is associated with the basic right to feel and have pleasure - connecting to your creativity, passion, sensuality, and emotional well-being.

Living with an Open and Balanced Sacral Chakra
When your sacral chakra is open and balanced, you enjoy and experience pleasure in different aspects of life, are creative, and allow your emotions to flow.
The sacral chakra is associated with your sexual energy, sensuality, and passion. You allow yourself to find enjoyment in relationships, physical activities, and art. Connecting with others on an intimate level is easier when you embrace your sensuality. You feel confident experiencing yourself sexually and feel pleasure and intimacy in healthy and balanced ways.
This chakra influences your ability to process and express emotions healthily. Your emotional intelligence determines how you manage, understand, and express your emotions. It also affects your ability to empathise and connect with others emotionally – supporting healthy relationships.
Emotions have a place and can encourage creative expression. Your creative energy is in your sacral chakra. A balanced second chakra allows creativity to flow (you can express it through painting, writing, dancing, playing music, crafting etc) and cheers you on to tap into your unique talents and artistic side.
Living with a Closed and Unbalanced Sacral Chakra
When your sacral chakra is unbalanced, inactive or underactive you likely feel emotionally numb, uncreative, disconnected from others, and have low libido.
An overactive sacral chakra shows itself as addiction, emotional instability, extreme emotional dependency, and an unhealthy obsession with pleasure.
When you think of a house, your root chakra is your foundation - your sacral chakra is a safe and respected floor for you to experience pleasure, embrace your sexuality, feel what you need to feel and allow others to do the same with healthy boundaries.
Activating and Balancing Sacral Chakra
To open, activate, and balance your sacral chakra start doing more creative activities, nurture your hobbies, practice self-care and self-love, explore your sensual side, foster healthy relationships, practice emotional awareness and expression, work with crystals (carnelian, orange calcite), practice yoga and meditation.
