Throat Chakra
Vishuddha · The throat
The throat chakra, Vishuddha, sits at the throat and is the centre of communication, truth and self-expression. As the first of the upper, spiritual chakras, it is where your inner truth finds its outer voice.
Wat het beheerst
The throat chakra is read as the centre of truth, voice and expression — your ability to speak honestly, to listen, and to express who you really are. When it is open, you communicate clearly and authentically; it is the chakra of the honest, well-spoken voice.
Wanneer het in evenwicht is
When the throat chakra is balanced you feel able to speak your truth clearly and kindly, to listen well, and to express yourself authentically — saying what you mean without fear or aggression.
Wanneer het geblokkeerd is
A blocked throat chakra is said to show up as difficulty speaking up, fear of judgement, talking over others, or feeling unheard and unable to say what you really think. The authentic voice gets stuck.
