Chakras 101: The Fifth Chakra – The Throat Chakra- Vishuddha

Physical Location: In the middle of the throat

Color: Blue

Element: Ether

The Throat Chakra is the first Chakra from The Chakras of Spirit. This little energy center regulates your self-expression in all senses. That means the way you are perceived by others while you speak and conveying your deepest self to the world, it is all regulated by the Throat Chakra.

Such a simple place and yet hold such power over us. Just imagine, when this Chakra is properly aligned you will feel able to say what you mean, you will be well understood by others and you will speak the truth in an appropriate way.

We should all strive to do this and now with paying attention to your blue wheel of energy you can!

As you might assume when the Throat Chakra is not balanced out all kind of things can go wrong. Some of the symptoms are:

• Difficulty saying what you want to

• Lacking the vocabulary to describe your emotions

• Feeling like you’re holding onto too many secrets

• A sense that people don’t know the “real you”

• A sore throat

• Erratic fluctuations in hormone levels

• A stiff or achy neck

If you have noticed any of these you already know how to fix it. Just pay special attention to this blue energy center in your next meditation session.
