2. Second Energy Center - Swadhishthana Chakra
The Swadhishthana chakra, also called the seat of the soul, is located below the navel. The presiding deity for this chakra is Shri Brahmadeva.
A well-balanced Swadhishthana chakra ensures vitality. The balance achieved in this energy center pervades the being, making the person an extrovert, patient, and positive, with an ability to enjoy life in all its fullness.
