THE SACRAL CHAKRA
The Sacral Chakra is located just above the pubic bone and is responsible for passion,
sexuality, intimacy, money, creativity, and joy.
The balance of the Sacral Chakra allows us to improve our relationships with ourselves and others. The planet MOON is associated with the sacral chakra and element is WATER.
As humans, it is part of our nature to create. This creativity can be expressed as procreation but the second chakra energy is certainly not limited to making babies. When we cook, bake, or garden, we are creating. We create when we find a new solution to an old problem. Any time we take raw materials, physical or mental, and transform them into something new, we are using our creative energy.

Do some hip-opening movements
The sacral chakra is located right below your belly button so any hip-opening
movements and poses will help get the energy flowing in that area. “You can do this by
allowing your body to flow through dancing or dance-like movements, stretching your
hips, and different yoga asanas or poses
