Root Chakra affirmations
The first chakra is about having ground under you — money, housing, health, the sense that you are allowed to take up space.
The test of an affirmation is not whether it is positive but whether you can say it without an inner voice objecting. A line you argue with rehearses the objection. These are pitched just inside the edge of believable, which is where they do something.
How to use them
Take one, not six. Say it in the morning and at the moment the relevant thing happens — for the root centre, that is when money anxiety that does not track your actual balance shows up. A week of one line does more than a day of all of them.

Questions
What are good root chakra affirmations?
I have a right to be here. My body is a safe place to live. I have what I need for today. The principle is believability — an affirmation that the mind argues with reinforces the doubt instead of the statement.
How often should you say chakra affirmations?
Daily and briefly beats occasionally and at length. Most practitioners use one line for a week rather than six lines once, because repetition of a single believable sentence changes the default thought faster than variety does.
