It must somehow. Saint once said So Below helped Libertine when cycled.
And in my experience, energy really rests in the “root chakra” like a coiled serpent that when awakened shoots up through your “crown chakra.” 
I don’t really understand energy. Like kundalini didn’t help me in any tangible way I could discern other than feeling completely unencumbered but I didn’t have a teacher. I felt so extraordinary for a months time, I thought maybe I would be able to do things like manifest but I was unsuccessful there; and also was unfruitful in the dating arena. I believe my fears shut down the circuitry. Everything is symbolic but has a real physical relationship to the body.
And I don’t know anyone else who had the experience I did, despite knowing many who practice different meditations and yogas. My parents are wayyy better at both than me. I just feel things. I intuit things.
