5th Throat Chakra – Vishuddha – Light Blue color

What are chakras?

The word chakra comes from the Sanskrit "wheel", they are regulators of subtle energy represented by lotus flowers. Hindus count 7 of them. They are distributed from the coccyx to the top of the head. They function like valves and distribute the universal vital energy in the body. If there is a blockage or a disorder, occurring when the energy is excessive or deficient, this affects a part of the network and has repercussions everywhere else. It is therefore necessary to rebalance this point so that the prana circulates correctly. The rise of energy borrowing the chakras is called "ascension of the Kundalini"

What is the THROAT CHAKRA?

The Throat chakra is the 5th chakra , blue in color, it is located at the base of the throat.
In Sanskrit, “ Vishuddha ” means “purity”. Its element is ether and its message is “I express”.

The throat chakra is associated with creativity , communication , listening, and self-expression. Close to the heart chakra, it connects compassion and love. It controls the thyroid and endocrine system by regulating the flow of hormones and all functions of the throat and head.

Ideally open , this chakra allows one to speak clearly with kindness, honesty, truth and love.
By listening to their inner voice, these people feel strong, combative and zen, real sources of inspiration for those around them.

With a blocked chakra , people have low self-esteem, are shy, liars and unable to express themselves properly. They often suffer from depression and sleep disorders.

In contrast to the overactive throat chakra , the person tends to talk too much, to be ironic and also to be a bad listener. They seek to show an imaginary strength that in reality hides a real lack of self-confidence.

One can balance the throat chakra and become a more effective and confident communicator through meditation, for example.
