The Roots of Self Love is an original piece of root chakra piano music created to support grounding, quiet reflection and a gentle sense of inner stability.
This short musical meditation combines intuitive piano playing with atmospheric sounds and visual imagery inspired by the root chakra, also known as Muladhara. You can use it during meditation, after a stressful day or whenever you would like to pause and reconnect with the present moment.
Listen to The Roots of Self Love
Find a comfortable place where you can listen without being disturbed. Allow your body to feel supported by the chair, bed or floor beneath you, and take a few slow breaths before beginning.
The music video lasts approximately four and a half minutes. You can listen with headphones or through speakers at a comfortable volume.
About This Root Chakra Piano Music
I created The Roots of Self Love using a free-flowing and intuitive style of piano playing. The piece is composed in C major and includes complementary background sounds intended to create a calm, spacious and grounding atmosphere.
The musical note C is often associated with the root chakra in modern chakra-music practices, although these sound correspondences vary between different traditions. For me, the most important element is not one particular frequency, but the way the melody, harmony, atmosphere and intention work together to support the listener.
The title The Roots of Self Love reflects the idea that self-love needs a stable foundation. Before we can grow, express ourselves and connect confidently with others, we may first need to feel supported within ourselves.
The Root Chakra and Grounding
Within chakra traditions, the root chakra is described as the foundation of the energy system. It is traditionally associated with grounding, safety, stability, belonging and our connection with the physical body.
When we feel grounded, we may find it easier to remain present, make decisions and respond calmly to everyday challenges. During unsettled periods, grounding practices such as music, mindful breathing, gentle movement and spending time in nature can provide a reassuring point of focus.

A Simple Grounding Meditation with the Music
As the music begins, place both feet on the floor or allow your legs to rest comfortably beneath you.
- Take a slow breath in through your nose.
- Gently breathe out and allow your shoulders to soften.
- Bring your awareness to the base of your spine, legs and feet.
- Imagine roots extending down from your body into the earth.
- Allow each piano note to help you feel calmer, steadier and more present.
You may wish to repeat the following affirmation quietly:
I am safe. I am grounded. I am supported.
There is no need to force a particular sensation or experience. Simply notice your breathing, your body and the way you respond to the music.

That piece was fantastic, I am so glad I came across this site. I’ve struggled alot with encephalitis ruining my memory and I used to feel a bit silly when I’d say music is the best medicine for me, but, I don’t have the words to explain it, but listening to pieces like this, well, I am so glad I did.
