The Throat Chakra is connected to your ability to communicate verbally. So you hear and speak the truth and express yourself with clear intent.
What are Chakras?
Chakras are the “Subtle Energy” center and part of your “Energy Body.”
Throughout history, several philosophies, mystic traditions, religions, and alternative medicine frameworks include the concept of state,s that they are connected to overall health and the evolution of consciousness.
Chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning wheel, disc, or circle and refers to the shape of this subtle energy structure.
However, accounts seen through clairvoyance describe them as a cone with a tip close to a person’s skin.
As non-physical structures, they belong to the extra-physical dimension.
Therefore, you cannot feel them using your physical senses, such as touch or sight.
Detecting their existence involves perceiving your bio-energies (subtle energies) through psychic ability.
And yes, you can learn and perceive yours through study, technique, and persistence without including religious beliefs, rituals, or innate skills.
The number of Chakras and their position varies considerably depending on which source you are consulting.
In conscientiology, a neo-science of consciousness, the model adopted includes seven main ones while acknowledging that the number can be in the tens of thousands when counting the secondary and peripheral ones.

When the Throat Chakra is Blocked
A blocked Throat Chakra primarily manifests in an inability to say what you want to say. As a result, you may feel stuck holding onto secrets.
Similarly, you may believe that people don’t want to hear your thoughts or that you can’t find the right words for your feelings.
A small blockage may mean you only struggle with self-expression at work or with a particular friend.
Meanwhile, a significant misalignment may mean you constantly feel thwarted in communication.
In addition to having trouble speaking your truth, you find it hard to pay attention and stay focused or fear judgment from others—which can further hinder your ability to keep it accurate.
Physically, this blockage can manifest itself as a sore throat, thyroid issues, neck and shoulder stiffness, or tension headaches.
Symptoms of a blocked Throat Chakra include the following:
- Difficulty saying what you want to
- Lacking the vocabulary to describe your emotions
- Feeling like you’re holding onto too many secrets
- A sense that people don’t know the “real you.”
Physical problems caused by a misaligned Throat Chakra can include one or more of the following:
- A sore throat.
- Erratic fluctuations in hormone levels.
- A stiff or achy neck.
How to Open the Throat Chakra
- Cross your fingers on the inside of your hands without the thumbs.
- Let the thumbs touch at the tops, and pull them slightly up.
- Concentrate on the Throat chakra at the base of the throat.

Balancing the Throat Chakra
A balanced Throat Chakra is capable of communicating truth. Therefore, there are no misunderstandings or missed connections when the Throat Chakra is open.
The voice of someone with an open Throat Chakra can change the world with words, pitch, and vibration. For the Throat Chakra to open, the message must be so authentic,
Here are ways to balance your Throat Chakra.
Physically
- Practice the Cat-cow yoga pose.
- Begin in a table-top position on your hands and knees.
- As you inhale, arch your spine toward the ground, dropping the belly; gaze up and create a backbend shape in the backbone for a cow pose.
- The neck extends at the end of the movement, opening the throat.
- As you exhale, pull the navel back toward the spine, arching the spine toward the sky for a cat pose.
- The crown of the head drops at the end of the movement, closing or gently constricting the throat.
- As you inhale, the whole front of the body opens, and as you exhale, the front body curls in, and the back body opens.
- This complete spine movement creates compression and opening in the throat.
- Move slowly with your breath for three to seven minutes.
Mentally
- Communicate with awareness.
- Share your current life goals and dreams with a friend.
- As you speak, become aware of when your language choices become obstacles to manifestation.
- Notice where you are saying, “I can’t,” “I haven’t,” or “I am not.”
- Correct yourself whenever you make a statement that does not reflect your goals as a reality.
- The more you practice this, the more your language will become a vehicle to manifest effectively.
Emotionally
- Sing to yourself as a child.
- Singing is one of the best ways to explore your voice.
- However, singing can also bring up a lot of emotions, including shame, discomfort, and embarrassment.
- So start by singing alone at home, and choose songs that elicit many memories and emotions.
- Next, visualize yourself as a child and sing your childhood self a lullaby.
- As you become more comfortable with your voice, share your singing in public while walking down the street or sing to your family and friends.
- Notice the range, words, and pitch most comfortable.
Spiritually
- Practice a mantra.
- Chanting a mantra aloud is a great way to consciously direct vibration into the world.
- “Sat Nam” is a powerful and famous mantra in Kundalini yoga.
- It means “truth is my identity.” Practice chanting “Sat Nam” for three to 11 minutes daily.
- You can also get creative and make up your mantra.
- Choose a positive affirmation that supports your current life goals.
- Chant it aloud daily.
