Humanity keeps the pelvis contracted.

Why?

Remember playing with your genitals when you were only a few months old?

How will you? No one can.



But everyone does the act!

And every mother immediately stops her kid from doing the act.

The kid, though s/he doesn't yet know the language, gets her message from the tone of her voice.

The tone is threatening.



The kid shudders.

And as s/he shudders, s/he contracts her/his pelvis.

You can yourself verify the same by imagining a shudder and acting it out on your body.

As s/he contracts the pelvis, the instinctual drive to play with the genitals fades away and loses its vividness.



S/he withdraws her/his hand.

The mother is happy and the same is conveyed to the kid through the tone of her voice.

She moves away.

But the instincts can't be tamed so easily.



They strike back!

The kid repeats the act.

The mother sees it again.

The whole story is repeated, not only once, but time and again.

Through repeated contraction of the pelvis out of the insecurity given by the shudder, the kid tends to form an unconscious habit of keeping the pelvis contracted for more often than not.

The body settles down in a contracted pelvis; and the mind, in the fear of the shudder.

The body loses its sexual sensitivity. The mind starts thinking about the pleasure got out of playing with the genitals rather than really getting it here and now.



The root chakra gets established!

The energy gets trapped on the way and is stopped from closing the loop.

Opening the root chakra entails undoing the unconscious habit of keeping the pelvis contracted, not as an exercise but as a way of life.

Vision therapy not only opens the root chakra but all the 7 chakras through a very subtle on-off switch in the body in one single go, since they are all connected anatomically as well as physiologically.
