Carrot juice

Ginger Juice

Garlic and Honey are is very simple. Peel 2-3 pieces of Garlic. Bowl Garlic for 5 minutes. Then add honey as needed.

Proteins: Eggs, meats, beans and nuts are all high protein foods that are very grounding and nourishing for the root chakra. My favorite meat is goat and oxtail. Though I am not 100% no mean from time to time I do make a tasty oxtail and curry goat. I do eat more beans, to make up the difference.

Red foods: It probably comes as no surprise that the colour of the chakras and the colour of foods are inextricably linked. It is believed that eating a wide range of red fruits and vegetables are great for balancing the root chakra. Strawberries, cherries, apples, pomegranate, tomato, Sweet Red Cherry Peppers, Red Jalapenos and raspberries.
