OUR CHAKRAS:
ROOT / TRIBE
Who is your tribe? What do your existing clients have in common? What is your tribe looking for?
ROOT
Muladhara GLAND: ADRENALS COLOR: RED TRADITIONAL INTERPRETATION: root support foundation, grounding, stability, right to be here
TRIBE
We start at the base to cultivate a foundation for optimal growth. A solid business needs a platform from which it can exist and grow. Your tribe is those individuals who are passionate about your products and services. A fundamental of being in business is to serve your community. By serving them your business will grow through their excitement and network of connections.
NOTES:
SACRAL / TEAM
Who makes up your team? What resources do you need? Who can you partner with?
SACRAL
Svadhisthana GLAND: GONADS COLOR: ORANGE TRADITIONAL INTERPRETATION: ones own place movement, flow, emotions, sexuality
TEAM
A successful business cannot run in isolation, it requires knowledge and perspectives often outside of us. When we work with a team and foster community each individuals strengths get leveraged. Through specialization, respect and appreciation for each others differences, businesses will run on more than the sum of their parts opening the door for endless opportunities.
NOTES :
SOLAR PLEXUS
Manipura GLAND: PANCREAS COLOR: YELLOW TRADITIONAL INTERPRETATION: self-mastery Energy, will, power
YOU
Most of our time is spent either working in our business, working on our business, or thinking about our business. With this much-dedicated time its no longer just an activity but a relationship, one that you are intimately at the center of. A strong sustainable practice needs to be authentic so it can continue to support you long term.
NOTES:
HEART / PASSION
What is the personality of your business? What is your business known for? What are your core values?
HEART
Anahata GLAND: THYMUS COLOR: GREEN TRADITIONAL INTERPRETATION: passion love, relationship, compassion, balance
PASSION
Your business is not a job, you didnt start it because you were forced to, you started it because of an experience you had, a need you saw, or an opportunity that couldnt be passed up. This passion gave your business a soul. Recognizing this passion and how it defines your business will give it depth and an identity that will help sustain it through the changes.
NOTES:
THROAT / MARKETING
What is the voice of your business? How are you sharing your message? What do you want people to know?
THROAT
visuddha GLAND: THYROID COLOR: BRIGHT BLUE TRADITIONAL INTERPRETATION: express yourself communication, creativity, self-expression, listening
MARKETING
To be recognized in business you must share what you do in a way that your market can understand and in turn share with their network. Marketing isnt just about producing ads and developing content; its about communicating to your community, reaching them where they are right now, and building relationships for further growth.
NOTES:
3Rd EYE
Ajna GLAND: PINEAL COLOR: DEEP INDIGO BLUE TRADITIONAL INTERPRETATION: seeing in the deepest sense intuition, dreams, insight, manifestation
vISION
When we immerse ourselves in our business and get caught up in the day-to-day tasks, we often lose sight of the bigger vision. To know what your business needs, and when it needs it, requires taking the time to listen to your intuition, to those on your team, your tribe, and your trusted advisors. When you create the space to reflect on your business you will be able to make healthier and more productive decisions that are in alignment with your business goals.
NOTES:
CROWN / AWARENESS
How can you better lead your tribe and team? What are the strengths of your business? What challenges do you continue to experience?
CROWN
Sahasrara GLAND: PITUITARY COLOR: VIOLET TRADITIONAL INTERPRETATION: pure awareness understanding, unity, intelligence
AWARENESS
An aligned business has integrated the elements from each chakra and adjusts to new scenarios gracefully. To have an aligned business requires dedicating time to working on it and being conscious of what you are creating. It assumes that you are leading the direction of your business and not the other way around. When you have reached the crown chakra the cycle continues by reinvesting your new awareness back into your team and tribe by finding new ways to serve.
