Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind are deeply connected — together, they influence your survival, your sense of security, and your financial stability.
The root chakra is your base chakra, located at the bottom of your spine. Even its physical position reveals its meaning — it’s your foundation. Without a stable base, you can’t feel grounded or safe. That’s why this chakra governs your basic survival needs: money, food, shelter, and emotional safety.
When your root chakra is blocked, you may struggle with:
- Anxiety about the future
- Fear of not having enough
- A constant sense of insecurity — especially around money
But here’s the deeper truth:
Your root chakra energy depends on your subconscious mind.
If your subconscious holds positive beliefs and memories about money, success, and self-worth, your root chakra stays strong, balanced, and energized. It helps you feel safe and automatically attract abundance and opportunities.
On the other hand, if your subconscious is filled with fear, scarcity, or past trauma related to money, your root chakra becomes weak or blocked — causing ongoing financial and emotional struggles.
In this post, I’ll help you understand how the root chakra, subconscious mind, energy, and financial health are all connected — and how you can start healing by yourself, step by step.

What is the Root Chakra?
The Root Chakra (Sanskrit: Muladhara) is the first energy center in your body, located at the base of the spine, near the tailbone. It represents your foundation — your connection to the Earth, your sense of safety, survival, and stability.
This chakra is associated with the color red and the earth element, grounding you in the physical world. It is formed energetically between the ages of 0 to 7, which means your early childhood experiences — especially those around money, safety, and emotional security — shape the energy stored in this chakra
Connection between Root chakra & Subconscious Mind:
Your subconscious mind stores everything — thoughts, emotions, habits, belief systems — all in the form of energy. This energy flows through your chakra system, starting from the head and running down the spine, forming the seven energy centers based on your life experiences and upbringing.
The Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind share a powerful connection, especially when it comes to safety, survival, and financial stability. Your root chakra forms during early childhood (ages 0–7), so if your subconscious mind stores memories of trauma, instability, family stress, or lack of shelter, this negative energy gets stored in the root chakra.
That’s how energy blockages begin.
When this chakra becomes blocked or underactive, it sends a message to the subconscious:
“You’re not safe.”
This leads to chronic fear, anxiety, and survival-mode thinking, which deeply affects your relationship with money and stability — the very foundation of life.
Signs of Root Chakra Blockage:
- Anxiety about the future
- Fear of not having enough
- A constant feeling of insecurity — especially around money
- Difficulty feeling grounded or safe
- Struggles with trust and stability
Why Root Chakra Energy Depends on the Subconscious
The state of your Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind determines how grounded and secure you feel.
If your subconscious is filled with positive beliefs about self-worth, safety, and abundance, your root chakra stays strong, balanced, and open, helping you feel secure and attract prosperity naturally.
But if your subconscious is filled with scarcity, fear, and unresolved trauma, your root chakra becomes weak or blocked, which results in emotional instability and financial blocks — no matter how much money you have externally.
Real-Life Example:
- A person raised in a rich household but constantly feels insecure, fears loss, or compares themselves to others may have a blocked Root Chakra.
- A person raised in poverty, but grew up feeling grateful, emotionally supported, and satisfied, may have a balanced Root Chakra — because their subconscious stored feelings of safety and worthiness.
So remember:
It’s not about your bank account, but about how safe and supported you feel within.
Because the Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind are connected, healing one helps heal the other.
Neurological Connection with Root Chakra:
There’s a deep neurological link between the Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind — more than most people realize.
Your Root Chakra is associated with your adrenal glands, which sit just above your kidneys. These glands release stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, especially when your body senses danger or fear — even emotional or financial fear.
This entire stress response begins from a part of your brain called the amygdala, which is responsible for processing fear and triggering the fight or flight response. The amygdala is closely connected to the hypothalamus, a part of your subconscious brain that controls your body’s basic survival functions — heartbeat, breathing, hormones, and more.
Now here’s the connection:
If your Root Chakra is blocked, it means your subconscious mind has stored fear, insecurity, or trauma — especially related to money, survival, or stability.
So whenever life triggers you — like an unexpected bill, job uncertainty, or even lack of support — your amygdala gets activated, pulling up all past memories of “I’m not safe” from your subconscious mind.
The result?
-Sudden anxiety
-Fast heart rate
-Overthinking and body tension
-Emotional instability
That’s why people with blocked Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind energy often feel like they’re living in constant fear or stress, even if their life looks fine on the outside.
And because the adrenal glands are connected to this chakra, it also directly affects your physical energy, strength, and sense of safety.
So yes — your Root Chakra isn’t just about financial security. It’s the foundation for your overall mental, physical, and emotional stability.
How to Heal and Balance the Root Chakra
Healing your Root Chakra isn’t just about energy — it’s about healing your foundation, your inner feeling of safety, satisfaction, and connection to the physical world.
Many people earn plenty of money but still feel anxious and insecure because they’re operating from a subconscious fear of lack. On the other hand, some have modest finances but live with contentment and peace. What’s the difference?
It lies in the state of their Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind.
If you want to feel truly grounded, safe, and stable — regardless of your income — you must heal your root chakra from the inside out.
Here are 5 powerful techniques to help you heal and align your Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind:
1. Inner Child & Subconscious Work
Do you know? Most of our fear, insecurity, and money blocks don’t come from today.
They come from childhood…
From the energy we absorbed while growing up — the fights at home, money worries, lack, or being told “money doesn’t grow on trees.”
These memories sit silently in our subconscious mind, and they block our Root Chakra.
To heal this, start giving love to your inner child — the younger version of you who felt scared, unsafe, or not enough.
You can try:
- Mirror talk – look into your eyes and say:
“You are safe. I am proud of you. Money is flowing to you easily.” - Write in a journal about any childhood memory related to money, home, or fear.
- Close your eyes and hug your inner child during meditation. Tell them: “I’m here now. You’re safe with me.”
This gently rewires your Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind, and helps you release the old fear stored inside.
2. Grounding Techniques
Your Root Chakra is connected to the earth element, so the more you connect to nature, the more healing flows to your base.
- Walk barefoot on grass or soil (earthing)
- Hug a tree or sit under it
- Garden with your hands in the soil
- Breathe deeply: Inhale “I am safe,” Exhale “I let go”
These simple yet powerful actions create a deep energetic reset, anchoring the Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind back into the present moment.
3. Sound & Mantra Healing
Sound carries energy. And the beej mantra for root chakra is “Lam”.
Sit peacefully, close your eyes, and chant “Lam…” slowly.
Visualize a warm red light at the base of your spine, glowing brighter with each chant.
Use these sound-based tools:
- Listen to 396 Hz frequencies, which are known to heal fear and guilt
- Meditate daily for even a few minutes with calming root chakra sounds
This realigns your Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind, clearing emotional debris.
4. Crystals, Food & Colors
Support your healing physically and energetically. you can wear these crystals –
- Red Jasper – for stability and strength
- Hematite – for grounding and protection
- Black Tourmaline – to clear fear and negative energy
Foods & Colors:
- Eat red-colored foods: beetroot, pomegranate, red apples, radish
- Include root vegetables: carrots, potatoes, onions
- Wear red clothing to boost root chakra energy
- Add warm meals, healthy fats, and minerals (especially magnesium)
All of this reinforces a stable connection between your Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind.
5. Yoga & Movement
Physical movement releases stagnant energy from the pelvic and lower spine region, where the root chakra resides.
Best poses for root chakra:
- Child’s Pose – for surrender and grounding
- Mountain Pose – to root your body into the Earth
- Warrior Pose – for strength and stability
- Squats & Hip Openers – to release stored trauma in the hips
- Dance freely or shake your body to move energy stuck in your base
Final Words:
Remember love, when your Root Chakra & Subconscious Mind are healed, life feels completely different.
You stop chasing. You stop fearing. You start trusting life.
You feel grounded even when nothing is perfect.
You feel stable even when things outside are uncertain.
Because deep inside… you know: “I am safe. I belong. I trust.”
That’s the real abundance.
