Signs that your throat chakra may be weak: ear, nose or throat problems, respiratory ailments, thyroid problems, speech problems (stuttering), sore throat, neck pain, timid behaviour, fear of sexual power.
Signs that your throat chakra may be overactive: arrogance or self righteousness, excessive talking, bitter language towards others (and self), sexual dominance, lack of concern for global perspective, unable to relax.
"Never compromise your own truth for what you think someone else's might be."
Vishuddha is the bridge from the heart chakra to the upper most spiritual energy centers. A person with a balanced 5th chakra will express the emotions in their heart, may express their joy for life through song, desires harmonious connection with others and focuses on appreciation of global matters instead of fixating on nationality. The thyroid gland will be balanced and able to perform all of it's important functions including cell repair and the production of T3 and T4 hormones which regulate the rate of your metabolism. As you know goddesses, this determines your success with keeping a healthy body weight too. |
Your truth will set you free goddess... |
Voice uses languages, inflections, tones, choice of words to express our truth and our story. I love to sing
so I know that this chakra is a big one for me. I love the physical
sensation and emotional feeling of singing, it is very healing. I believe singing can be an effective therapy for throat chakra problems
like stuttering for example, as it teaches the brain to express freely
through the voice. Many who stutter in speech do not stutter while
singing.
One of the most powerful things you can do to become a better communicator...
...is to be a better listener.
The people in our lives are reflections of ourselves and they hold many keys to our spiritual growth. When I really listen and receive what someone is saying to me without analyzing or planning what I'll say next, I find there's always a nugget or two.
Let your conversations breathe, let them ebb and flow so each person is heard and has a chance to contribute or express their thoughts and feelings. Who is in your life right now that you love chatting with?
Speak your truth goddess....
I'm always curious to know how singing has touched lives. Were you encouraged to sing, told to stop? Do they laugh or cry? The human voice is beautiful no matter what anyone thinks. It's a powerful tool for healing the throat chakra. Sing it sister!!
