Releasing doubts & fears from your chakras

Imagine being able to release your doubts and fears—not just push them down or pretend they’re not there, but truly free yourself from their grip.
What if the key to that freedom was already within you?

The truth is, it is. That power lives in your energy body—specifically, your chakras.

Every time we go through a painful or challenging experience, the energy of that moment gets stored in our system. Not just in the mind, but in the body, the subconscious, and the chakras. Each thought, emotion, and belief leaves an imprint. Over time, these imprints can create emotional patterns, trigger limiting beliefs, and even show up in the physical body.

Often, these energetic blocks have been there so long—sometimes even carried from past lives—that we don’t realize they're running the show. We just feel heavy. Off. Sad or anxious without knowing why. We start to notice that something isn’t quite right… even if we can’t put our finger on it.

But why does this happen?

When we’re hurt, abandoned, or treated poorly, we internalise those experiences. Even if we think we’ve moved on, many of those emotions get pushed down, hidden in the parts of us we don’t always want to look at.

But just because we’re not actively feeling them doesn’t mean they’ve disappeared.

They stay with us—shaping how we think, how we feel, and what we believe about ourselves and the world.
You might start doubting your ability to succeed, to be loved, or even to be truly seen.
You might carry fears of rejection, failure, emotional vulnerability, or even of your own dreams and desires.

So you try to push those feelings away. You pretend they’re not there, tell yourself they don’t matter, or label them as “bad” or “wrong.”

It’s natural to want to protect yourself. But sometimes, the very walls we build for protection end up becoming the blocks that keep us stuck.

So what can you do?

You can heal.

The incredible thing is—your body and energy field want to release what no longer serves you.
All those old doubts and fears? They’re held in your energy body—your chakras, your subconscious—and even in your physical body: your muscles, tissues, organs… even your brain and gut.

And the best part?

With the right tools and support, those layers can be released. You can clear space for more clarity, confidence, and ease.

Ever had a gut feeling about something?

That inner knowing, that sense in your belly that something’s off—it’s real. It’s your body and energy speaking to you, trying to guide you toward alignment or warn you when something isn’t right.

But what happens when that internal guidance system is clouded by past pain?

What if the fear that rises up isn’t about the present moment at all—but about something unresolved from the past?

Maybe your father abandoned you as a child, and now—without even realising it—you fear intimacy. A part of you believes that if you open your heart, the same thing will happen again. So even when someone loving and safe comes along, your body says “don’t trust it.” And your mind believes the story.

How can you move forward when your nervous system is on high alert?
How can you open to love when your subconscious is convinced it’s dangerous?

The answer is: you heal the past.
You release the fear. You shift the belief. You let your body and energy system recalibrate so it can support the life you actually want—not just protect you from the one you fear.

Because here’s the truth: life reflects your inner world.
Your thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and energy shape your experience—so it’s vital that they’re aligned with your truth, your desires, and your healing.

That’s where your chakras come in.
Your chakras are your internal alignment system—seven powerful energy centres that influence different aspects of your emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.

And each one has a unique relationship to the doubts and fears that hold you back.

The amazing thing about chakras is how responsive they are. They’re not fixed or static—they’re designed to move, shift, and heal. They can release old blockages, outdated beliefs, and heavy emotions. And they can absorb new energy, new programs, and a whole new way of being.

One of the most effective ways I’ve found to support this is through energy healing.

It’s actually pretty incredible how quickly and deeply the chakras respond when we give them the attention they need.

During a session, I tune into the chakra that’s connected to the doubt or fear you’ve been carrying. I read the energy, listen to what’s there, and begin gently shifting the blocks—clearing out what no longer serves you and helping your system realign.

Let’s say you’re struggling to believe you’re worthy of a loving relationship. I’ll work with your heart chakra to see what wounds, memories, or energetic patterns might be holding that belief in place—and we’ll release them together.

Each chakra tells a story. So let’s explore the major ones and how they relate to doubts and fears.

Base Chakra (Root)

This chakra is all about safety, stability, and your foundation in the world.
It governs things like family, finances, home, and your basic sense of security.
When this chakra is blocked, you might feel anxious, ungrounded, or stuck in survival mode.

This is a powerful place to work when you’re carrying fears around money, instability, or not belonging.

Sacral Chakra

This is the energy center of creativity, pleasure, and emotional expression.
It’s where we birth new ideas, dreams, and even relationships.

If you’ve been feeling blocked when it comes to bringing your visions to life—or if self-doubt creeps in when you try to follow your passions—there may be stuck energy in your sacral chakra.

This can also show up as a fear of failure, a loss of inspiration, or difficulty experiencing joy.

Solar Plexus Chakra

This is your power center.

It governs your confidence, self-worth, and ability to take action in the world.

If you find yourself second-guessing your choices, struggling to believe in yourself, or feeling like you’re not enough (even if only deep down), chances are there’s old energy living here that’s ready to be cleared.


Healing this chakra helps you reclaim your power and feel strong and capable again.

Heart Chakra

No surprise here—this one is all about love.
Giving love, receiving love, and feeling safe enough to open your heart.

If you’ve been hurt in the past, it’s natural to want to protect your heart. But when those walls stay up for too long, they can block the very connection you’re craving.
Fears around vulnerability, intimacy, or abandonment often point to heart chakra wounds.

Working here can help you release old heartbreaks and make space for deeper, more aligned love.

Throat Chakra

Your voice lives here.
This is the center of expression, truth, and authentic communication.

If you hold back from speaking your truth, struggle to set boundaries, or fear being misunderstood, there may be energy stuck in your throat chakra.

Healing this area helps you express yourself with clarity, confidence, and ease—without fear of judgment or rejection.

Third Eye Chakra (Ajna)

Often called the master chakra, your third eye is the center of inner vision, intuition, and spiritual insight.

When doubts and fears live here, they cloud your ability to trust your inner guidance. You might feel disconnected from your intuition or struggle to make decisions because you can’t see the bigger picture.

Sometimes this fear is rooted in past life experiences—perhaps you were shamed or punished for your spiritual gifts, and now your subconscious protects you by blocking access.

Even if you deeply desire connection with your soul and guides, that protective layer might be standing in the way.

Clearing this chakra can help you trust your inner knowing again—and feel safe doing so.

Crown Chakra

Located at the very top of your head, the crown chakra is your connection point to Source, the Divine, and universal consciousness.

When fear lives here, it often shows up as resistance to fully surrendering, trusting, or believing you’re supported by something greater.

You might doubt your worthiness to receive guidance or feel disconnected from your spiritual path—even if you long for that connection deeply.

Healing the crown chakra helps open you to a higher level of awareness, peace, and divine trust.

It invites you to move beyond fear and remember that you are never truly alone.

Realigning your chakras

Rebalancing your chakras is a 2 stage process. First, you need to release all the blockages and negative beliefs and then you need to replace them with positive, empowering ways of thinking. 

Chakras are energetic cups that get full of etheric muck. They need to be cleaned out to work properly. 

Here is a simple technique you can use to release some of the negative energies of doubt and fear from your chakras.

A Simple Chakra Cleansing Technique

Want to start clearing your energy right now? Try this gentle chakra-clearing practice:

  1. Find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed.

  2. Sit comfortably and bring your awareness to your breath.

  3. Inhale slowly and exhale deeply, allowing your body to relax.

  4. Bring your focus to the chakra related to the fear or doubt you're feeling.

  5. As you inhale, imagine clean, healing light flowing into the front of that chakra.

  6. As you exhale, see the energy flushing any old, stagnant, or heavy energy out the back.

  7. Repeat this breath cycle 3 times.

  8. Now hold the light within the chakra and see it being fully absorbed, like sunlight soaking into your skin.

  9. Repeat the full process 3 times or as needed.

This simple practice can help you feel clearer, calmer, and more in tune with your energy body.

But here's the truth: your doubts and fears don’t have to control you. You can release them. You can shift into a life where you feel grounded, clear, and aligned. You are meant to fly—but life’s challenges can clip your wings if they go unhealed.

If you're ready to let go of the fear and step into your power, I'd love to support you, whether in person or online.

I’m here when you’re ready.
