Ahhhh, the throat chakra; my favorite one to be honest.
It’s where a lot of our power and blockages lie due to being silenced as children.
If at home, in school, and in your social circles you weren’t given the space, privacy, emotional availability, and support to express yourself; you may struggle with public speaking, intimacy, and communication.
That’s okay.
Healing the throat chakra requires a combination of being receptive to all forms of communication, usage of the honesty policy, actively speaking in high energy, creating healthy boundaries, some form of daily emotional release activity, and avoiding false expectations.
Knowing when to speak and when to only be spoken to is important.
No longer volunteering valuable information, saying things you do not mean, fighting for causes you know you don’t believe in, and speaking lowly of self and others are baby steps to healing.
Our tone, volume, pitch, and word choice reveals how secure and healthy our throat chakras are.
Can you say the following loudly, with courage, and calmly?
“I feel frustrated because I’m not able to fully express how what was said or done to me is influencing me.”
“I’m exhausted by the lack of reciprocity between us.”
“I would like to speak to you on the phone or in person because texting is not conveying what I feel. I don’t want to be misunderstood.”
“I apologize about what I said. I was being immature because you said something to hurt me. I should’ve informed you instead of being childish. Please forgive me. I need to do better at communicating my emotions.”
Yeah? No? Maybe so?
It could all be so simple to express, expose, and expand on how we felt and feel but since childhood we’ve been through a lot of shit that made us insecure, cold, and silent.
Now that we are maturing into adults, unlearning our ghosting, gaslighting, and guilt mechanisms are vital to creating healthy connections and communication skills.
It is very unattractive in love, business, professionally, and familiarly to not be a person of your word, to lie because you can’t live in your truth, or to avoid accountability by denial.
My throat chakra was blocked for years and I only started to heal it when I was wounded in love. The years of repressed emotions had me so overwhelmed that I lost my voice and my essence for a while. I fell silent to my insecurities and the courage within was gone.
Now that I am above slander, smearing, and ghosting without clear communication of our end; I feel so liberated and connected to my heart.
Express yourself, forreal forreal.
Stop letting other people speak for you.
Stop letting other people silence your beliefs.
Stop shutting up!
Stop going to bed filled with frustration.
Write, record yourself on camera, or confide in a trusted person but please, say something or you will explode from inside.
You’ll start to feel anxious, discouraged, uninspired, bitter, and depressed in your energy. Let go and it’s not even about God.
Let go because life is too short to not tell us how you feel because I promise to somebody it matters.
So drink your tea and water, watch who you put in your mouth, change your toothbrush every 30 days, floss, and be the best throat baby you can be.
Talk to you later,
