Mooladhara Ajna Chakras Balance These Chakras for Deep Sleep Mental Calm Dr Hansaji

In this video, Hansaji shares how chakra balancing can improve sleep by working on the Mooladhara chakra (Root Chakra) and Ajna chakra (Third Eye Chakra). When stability and survival fears disturb the nervous system, cortisol remains high and melatonin release becomes slow, leading to insomnia. Through simple yogic practices, you can restore balance naturally.

Why sleep gets disturbed
• Constant exposure to traffic, deadlines, and screens keeps the nervous system alert
• Chronic stress increases cortisol, delaying melatonin production
• Overthinking overstimulates the brain at night
• Lack of stability at the root level creates inner insecurity

Understanding the two key chakras
1. Mooladhara Chakra (Root Chakra)
Location: Base of the spine
Represents: Stability, survival, physical security
When imbalanced:
• Body feels unsafe or restless
• Stress hormones remain elevated
• Sleep becomes light and disturbed
Practices to balance Mooladhara
• Sit quietly and breathe into the lower abdomen for 5–7 minutes
• Mentally affirm: I am safe and protected
• Practice Yogendra Malasana (gentle squat) for 30–60 seconds
• Warm oil massage on feet or lower back
• Eat a warm dinner around 7 pm
• Sleep by 10 pm
Benefits of Malasana
• Grounds the body
• Calms excess Vata
• Stabilizes the nervous system
• Creates a sense of physical security essential for sleep

2. Ajna Chakra (Third Eye Chakra)
Location: Space between the eyebrows
Represents: Mental clarity and thought regulation
When imbalanced:
• Overthinking at night
• Difficulty switching off
• Increased mental activity
Practices to balance Ajna
• Avoid screens and bright lights one hour before bed
• Sit comfortably and bring awareness to the space between the eyebrows
• Slow, natural breathing without force
• Practice Yogendra Yoni Mudra for a few minutes
• Journal your thoughts before sleep
• Listen to calming sounds or devotional music
Additional holistic tips
• Take morning sunlight to reset your biological clock
• Walk barefoot on safe natural ground to ground the nervous system
• Maintain regular meal timings
Sleep is not just a night activity. It reflects how balanced your nervous system has been through the day. When the Mooladhara provides stability and the Ajna becomes calm, melatonin flows naturally, cortisol reduces, and deep rest follows effortlessly.
