In this deeply reflective episode of Climbing the Summit, host Danny Cobin invites listeners to return to the very beginning—the foundation of who we are—with an exploration of the root chakra, or Muladhara. Symbolized by the color red and connected to the earth element, the root chakra represents security, stability, and our connection to the physical world.

Danny shares his own journey of rediscovering the importance of feeling grounded, especially when life feels chaotic. From early childhood development to present-moment awareness, he weaves together ancient yogic wisdom, modern self-awareness, and heartfelt personal insight. Drawing on the chakra system as a rainbow bridge of energy, Danny reminds us that we can’t climb toward insight or enlightenment unless our roots are secure.
