Yoga teaches us that the body is a place of worship and the senses can bring ecstasy and enlightenment. Lower back pain, tight hips and digestive disorders can be physical symptoms of Sacral imbalance. To open up this chakra and release any negative energy stored there, practice a deep hip opener and poses that strengthen the muscles around the pelvis, hips and buttocks. I attach a few of my favourite poses to balance Sacral chakra 🧡
