When your Root chakra is closed too far, you may actually feel that your feet don't seem to really touch the ground.
This is an exercise to strengthen this connection to the ground.

Stand up straight and relaxed.
Put your feet shoulder width apart.
Slightly bend your knees.
Put your pelvis somewhat forward.
Keep your body balanced, so that your weight is evenly distributed over the soles of your feet.
Sink your weight downward.

Keep in this position for several minutes.


Contracting bottom muscles

By contracting the muscles that are between the anus and the genitals, the Root Chakra is stimulated. At each inhalation, contract these muscles inward, at each exhalation, relax. Do this for a few minutes.

This can be done while sitting, standing or walking.

Thanks for the tips TwoRone. I should have thought that something was askew when during my 3 times a week, 5 kilometer power walk along this beautiful tree lined pedestrian jogging path, I feel as if I can leap up and touch the tips of the trees. It's a wonderful feeling.
But we also know that it is important for all of our chakras to be open and allowing energy flow.
In my case though, I think that it is more about overcompensation. Over the past couple of years I decided that it was time to nurture my higher chakras more. I think that I might be overdoing it.
