Speaking your truth … communicating in an open easy manner with others … expressing yourself creatively
These are a few examples of what it feels like if your throat chakra is nice, clear and open.
What do I mean by clear? Visually, a chakra is generally a round sphere of energy. If there is any issues or things blocked, there will be gray spots or shadows in the energy of the chakra.
The Throat Chakra is located in, well, your throat and neck region. Sometimes it is referred to as Vishuddha or the 5th chakra. It is related to speaking as well as hearing … the things you need for proper communication.
A nice clear blue for the throat chakra
It is a nice clear blue color. By simply wearing the color blue, wearing blue jewelry or carrying blue stones or crystals in your pocket can help heal this chakra.
Interestingly, the mantric sound associated with the throat chakra is ‘hum‘. Singing, humming and speaking all help open this chakra.
A blocked throat chakra can lead to health issues that include your throat, voice problems, teeth, mouth issues, etc. Another sign is that you find it hard to communicate how you really feel or you may feel unable to express yourself creatively.
I enjoy working with the chakras. One weekend out with a group of girls, we talked about balancing the chakras. I had brought my chakra healing collection with me. It includes a pendulum, essential oils and my list of positive affirmations. The process includes checking the percentage of closure for each chakra before and after using the affirmations and essential oils.
Surprisingly nearly everyone that day had a closed or nearly closed throat chakra. Today, I came across a throat chakra healing video by Carol Tuttle and I remembered this weekend away. This synchronicity inspired me to write this blog post.
The essential oil I used for the throat chakra is called Whisper, a doTERRA essential oil blend. It smells wonderful since this blend includes true rose essential oil.
Throat Chakra Affirmations ~ As you focus on the throat chakra, say these statements aloud, clearly … with meaningful intent.
I speak my personal truth from light and love—and with love, I communicate clearly. I support my voice. The force between the heart and mind is balanced. I am able to express my feelings.

A couple of weeks ago when I started posting on chakras, I was doing research and came across Carol Tuttle, she had a chakra test, and I took it. I was suprised at the results all but my crown were closed, I thought bs, she is a chakra healer and just wants to sell me something. So I called a friend to check them using her pendulum. I have one but wanted an objective person. Her results were the same, so there you have it. Through the meditation work I have done though the chakras are in better order.
So, so many bloggers decided to write about chakras at the same time, Facebook too. Synchronicity and unity.

You are right. I have seen a lot lately too. I have been thinking about this blog for weeks. Once I saw her video, it was perfect. That is cool that the pendulum worked too! We all are growing and healing! ♥♥♥

This is so important especially because, like the carol says, many kids are trained to speak only the truths of other people. Thank you for sharing this!

disashisoul ~ I agree. Kids are so honest with everything. It is sad that many adults quell that openness and more inadvertently.

This was great, I loved the video and Carol’s techniques, especially the writing exercise she suggested, as I find inner child/truth writing to be very effective. This is how I started to heal my thyroid dis-ease. Also, wearing turquoise is great – I got my own push to wear a turquoise necklace after a dream about one. Spirit is always nudging us in subtle, or not too subtle ways
