At times you run into situations where you feel that others take advantage of you. It could be situations like:
– At office, people pass on their works to you and take the credit for themselves
– In friendships, you feel you are always there for them in times of need but when your time comes, they seem to be too busy
– You find that you give time, efforts and money or anything material to friends, relatives, business partner/associates etc., but never get it back or in turn you get betrayed
Feelings of being taken advantage of express themselves as below. These fears and emotions affect the Swadhisthana Chakra which is the seat of the ’self’, located two inches below the navel.
– negativity, low self-esteem.
– Feeling overpowered by others
– Feeling cheated, less, unsafe and lack of inability
– Feeling helplessness to protect what is due to your or protect your boundaries
The Swathisthana chakra
An individual with a healthy Swadhisthana Chakra holds the energy of money, joy and taste in life, power of relationships and demonstrates creativity. The blockage of this Chakra produces insecurity, resentment, lower back issues and fear of the unknown. This Chakra communicates how to eliminate our need to resist and control everything in life and surrender ourselves to the flow of life.
When energy is not flowing freely in Sacral Chakra, some of the following physical symptoms arise:
• Fertility Issues, Endometriosis or PCOS in women
• Lower back pain or Muscle pains
• Emotional Instability and Depression
Reasons for Chakra blockage
This Chakra gets blocked when a person:
• Does not honor himself
• Does not protect his own boundary
• Allows others to dishonor him or encroach upon his boundaries
The reason why a person does not honor himself is self-doubt, self-rejection, comparison with others and feeling lesser as well as feeling that others are more important than him.
When a person does not honor himself, he becomes dependent on others for acknowledgement, guidance and sustenance. This dependence on others sets a stage for him to be taken advantage of. He is unable to protect his boundaries out of fear of losing favour of those who support him. He is then unable to say ‘No’ or protect himself or protect what is due to him. A relationship of dependency leads to expectation, control and the person is not able to see the truth behind the actions of the other persons.
Lessons of the Swathisthana chakra
To balance his Swadhisthana Chakra, one has to learn the vital lessons of
-Self honor
-Defending one’s self
-Standing up for oneself
-Making his environment in his favor
-Realizing his unique identity independent of others
Only when a person honours his unique identity he is able to understand himself and make himself understood. It is identity that makes you realize your power and right to act assertively and stand up for yourself.
