When You Feel Unsettled: A Poem On The Mulādhāra Root Chakra

What if the unease you feel isn’t something to fix… but something asking for support? What if restlessness is the body’s way of seeking ground?

This contemplative poem explores the quiet experience of feeling unsteady — and the gentle return to a sense of being held. It reflects on the ways we move through life without fully feeling supported, and how this can show up as tension, anxiety, or a constant need to stay alert.

Through simple, grounded language, this piece invites you to reconnect with something more fundamental — a sense of stability that doesn’t come from control, but from allowing yourself to rest.

Not to push anything away.
But to land.

A soft listening experience for moments of uncertainty, overwhelm, or disconnection — offering a quiet reminder that you are supported, even now.

A short poem on Mooladhara Before the reaching, Before the rising, There was ground. Not dramatic, Not luminous, Just steady earth beneath your weight. The body learned early to brace, To prepare, To stay ready, But the ground never asked for vigilance, It simply stayed. Stone does not hurry, Soil does not perform, They hold. Beneath thought, Beneath fear, There is a deeper rhythm, Gravity. The earth receives without judgment, Tension, Fatigue, All of it. You do not have to grip what is already supporting you. And when the body remembers this, Breath lowers, Shoulders soften, Time slows. Roots are not effort, They are contact. Here, At the base of everything, Nothing is missing. Only the quiet truth that you belong to the ground that has always been holding you. Thank you for listening. Love, Light, Blessings. Namaste.
