Unblocking My Sacral Chakra: What Actually Worked for Me

When it comes to chakras, I truly believe intention is the key to unlocking and unblocking the energy inside us. Having a tool that reinforces that intention makes everything feel more real. It helps me trust that what I’m looking for is looking for me too.

The sacral chakra is one I’ve needed the most work with over the years.

My Own Sacral Block

I remember a powerful shamanic sound session in Tulum, Mexico. Without me saying anything, the shaman told me my sacral chakra was blocked. It confirmed exactly what I had been feeling.

I felt a deep lack of passion and creativity. New ideas just wouldn’t come. If something did spark, I had zero drive to follow it. Even with my partner, I felt disconnected. There was no sensuality, no spark to reignite.

I knew these feelings clearly, and it started a whole chapter of trying to open that energy center again.

How I Started to Shift It

That journey really began with my sacral chakra crystal singing bowl and an orange carnelian crystal.

I made it intentional, which is one of the most important aspects to sound bath. Every day, I played my bowl for five minutes straight. Long, deep breaths. Crystal in one hand. Imagining glowing orange light rising from my spine and swirling through the area just below my navel.

Then I paused for two minutes in silence.

Then another five minutes of playing the bowl.

I repeated that cycle for about twenty minutes total.

What I Actually Felt

Something amazing happened. I started feeling tiny muscle spasms right in that exact spot where I held my focus. Real physical releases.

Day by day, I noticed change in my life. Whether it was the bowl, the crystal, the breath, or all of it together with intention, stagnant energy was moving again.

Deep down I knew the pure vibrations from my singing bowl were traveling through my cells and shaking loose what had been stuck for so long.

Where I Am Now

Today I can say with confidence that my sacral chakra flows in harmony with the rest of me. It took conscious effort to clear it, but I did the work and it responded.

A Lifelong Flow

Energy moves through stages. It flows freely, then life happens and it can stagnate again. Keeping our chakras clear is a lifelong dance of opening and closing.

The more we practice, the easier it gets to come back into balance.

For me, my singing bowls are my greatest allies. I know there will be times when another chakra falls out of flow, and I trust my bowls to be there when I need them.

If this resonates with you right now, I hope you find a singing bowl that matches what you need most in this season of your life.

I appreciate you so much.
