The second chakra, known in Sanskrit as Svadhisthana, is located in the lower abdomen, just below the navel. It is the energy centre linked to emotions, sexuality, creativity and pleasure. A balanced second chakra allows living with spontaneity, enjoying intimate relationships, expressing yourself and accepting emotions.

The stones that work on this chakra are mainly orange, but also warm tones like peach, pink or amber, which resonate with the energies of joy, sensuality and creation.
