5th Chakra
Throat Chakra - Visuddha
Our fifth chakra focuses on all forms of communication (internal/external) and the expression of our creativity. Associated with speaking our truth and listening, this chakra is at the base of our throats, vibrating a beautiful teal color.
The benefits of balancing the throat chakra
When the throat chakra is too active, one may be too talkative, MANIPULATIVE, or insincere or engage in frequent lying. If this chakra is underactive, one may behave passive-aggressively or overly shy with a fear of speaking. However, when the throat chakra is healthy and open, we are comfortable with speaking clearly, fully listenting, and expressing ourselves authentically. To keep this chakra in balance, journal instead of speaking, sing outloud and take the time to intentionally listen to others.
