💙 Throat 💙
This is the fifth chakra of the seven main chakras. It's located in, you guessed it, the throat. This is our source of expression and our ability to speak our highest truth.
When you are balanced in this chakra, you feel peaceful, able to express your truth, a sense of purpose and living in integrity. When out of balance, you might feel shy, anxious, unable to tell the truth, or not able to listen to others.
My favorite way to get back into balance is to use your voice. Sing, yell and scream, laugh, make noise! Write a letter to someone or to yourself. Call a friend. Say NO if that’s what you feel.
Other ways are through mantras. The throat mantra is "I speak".
- I speak the truth
- I speak with integrity
- I speak with kindness
- I speak with love
- My voice is strong
- I have an opinion
Food can also help. Since the color blue is associated with the throat chakra, eat lots of blue fruits and veggies, such as blueberries, blackberries, purple potatoes or carrots, as well as mushrooms, tea, seaweed and kelp.
