As we look at the solar plexus qualities of leadership, decision-making, discernment, self-empowerment, and joy, Dr. Maclin shares how she is a leader, foremost, that she always shows up as 'the head and not the tail' because of the types of decisions she has to make on behalf of people's lives. She further shares how her role as a doctor brings her joy knowing that her confidence, knowledge, skill, and peaceful disposition creates a safe space for her patients to share their concerns and confirm they are heard, especially for people of color.

A pioneer, Dr. Maclin, is blending her western knowledge of medicine with eastern and energy-based treatment modalities to help provide holistic diagnosis and treatment options. She also shares some health challenges she experienced related to the body parts (the digestive system) associated with the solar plexus chakra when she was not on path with her life's work.

Join me for a SPECIAL EDITION of 'As The Chakras Spin' where I share my decades-long personal journey of healing my sacral chakra. Here, I provide a snapshot of some of the tools, exercises, supplements, modalities and procedures I used and underwent to heal my mind, body, and spirit, overall, and, specifically my womb, from sexual and emotional trauma I experienced in high school; the presence of uterine fibroids in my late thirties/early forties; and how I attempted to prepare my womb for conception in my early forties.

I talk about the importance of the health of the sacral chakra, that its functions and qualities go beyond conceiving and birthing babies, but conceiving creative ideas and birthing life's experiences - big and small.

In this honest account of my story, you'll witness vulnerability, embarrassment, strength, light-heartedness, discipline and its lack-of, growth, and healing. And though I don't speak on it directly, you might sense the implication of forgiveness of self and others wrapped in a growing love for self (above the ummmms, under the pauses and behind some of my smiles).
