Williams Welcome to today's meditation.
Today's practice will continue on the theme of the seven chakras and we will deal specifically with the fifth chakra,
The throat.
The throat chakra,
Very appropriately located at your throat,
Is often associated with speaking one's truth.
When we have blockages in our solar plexus and in our heart,
We often have blockages in our throat.
So it works very nicely to imagine the light that comes from your throat stretches down into your heart,
Down into your solar plexus,
Where you gain the confidence to speak your truth.
It is in our throat that we manifest a true essence of communication,
Creative expression,
Peace,
Truth and knowledge.
If you're meditating with any crystals or stones or if you feel that there's many times where you simply can't speak your truth,
Holding a blue stone such as turquoise,
Blue topaz or aquamarine can have very healing properties.
If you're lying down to meditate,
You can place your stone at your throat,
Wear it on a necklace or you can simply hold it in your hand.
Whatever works for you,
Whatever placement feels right to you.
When we bring our awareness to our throat chakra,
Much like the other chakras,
We may feel a physical tingling or have a distinct need to cough or clear our throat.
This is the releasing of negative energy that is built over time.
It is perfectly okay to feel a variety of sensations or to feel nothing at all.
This is your practice and is individual to you.
While we are all the same,
We are all very different.
At this time,
If you want to set an intention for your meditation,
Go ahead and do that now.
Perhaps it is releasing the fear of speaking your truth,
The worry of hurting others with your words,
A lack of confidence in standing up for yourself.
Whatever your intention is for your practice,
Set it now and at any time that you feel distracted,
Bring it to mind.
Let it be your guide today.
With each breath that you take today during practice,
We will cleanse away negative words and ignorance.
These words may be the ones that we speak to ourselves,
The ones that we think mentally in times where we're feeling a little less than,
The ignorance that we hold to our own feelings when we bottle them up and push them aside.
Allow your hands to rest at your sides,
On your hips or at your heart,
Whatever is comfortable and feels right to you today.
Visualize a pure,
Clear and pale blue ray of light coming from your throat.
Allow it to provide balance,
Breath and clarity to you today.
Let the light linger here at your throat,
Growing in intensity,
Growing in warmth,
Spreading down to your heart,
Mixing with that beautiful green light,
Opening your heart to possibility and love.
Traveling down to your solar plexus and mixing with that golden yellow light,
Releasing your confidence and giving you a safe space to speak your truth today.
Bring your awareness to your throat.
In today's practice,
We will focus on releasing judgment,
Negative words and ignorance.
We will acknowledge our truth and wisdom,
Integrating peace and loyalty into our being.
What value do you place on the words that you speak?
This is something that we don't often consider,
Especially the words that we speak to ourselves,
If they hold a lot of power.
Are your words beautiful and kind?
Or do they hold hostility,
Ignorance and negativity?
These words that you speak,
Are they your divine truth?
Or are they simply masking your fears?
In what ways today can your words be wise?
Can you accept?
Can you be gentle and kind?
How will you awaken and transform these areas today in your practice?
When we fail to speak our truth,
We weave lies and deception,
Often unknowingly.
This may be out of fear or to aid in self-protection or out of worry of hurting someone else.
However,
What does it actually accomplish?
When we open our throat chakra and allow our truth to flow freely,
We're able to access this divine wisdom and integrate peace and understanding into our words.
Hold yourself in a place of peace today.
Be gentle and kind with yourself.
Breathe all of your awareness and energy through your throat.
Feel connected to your truth,
Acknowledging it as an integral part of your being.
Place ignorance in those negative words.
Clear them from your mind,
Acknowledging that they serve you in no positive way.
Their purpose is lost.
And replace them with positive affirmations that allow you to speak your truth.
Our affirmation for the throat chakra today is,
I speak my truth.
I am able to communicate effectively with compassion and awareness of myself and those around me.
I create a knowingness and am connected to my divine self.
With a confidence to speak,
An open heart.
Our truth comes freely,
Unapologetically and from a place of good.
As you hold your awareness here at your throat,
Be grateful for this moment in time.
Grateful for acknowledging that you have a truth and you are deserving of that truth.
You are a creative and knowledgeable being.
This truth that you possess is a divine gift and it lives only inside you.
May you have the confidence to speak your truth.
Acknowledging that you communicate effectively with a compassion and awareness for yourself,
A compassion and awareness for those around you.
You have a distinct knowingness and you are connected to your higher self.
You can stay in these beautiful moments of truth today for as long as you would like.
Sinking into them deeper,
Sending away the negative thoughts and negative words that no longer serve you.
Repeating the affirmations and becoming one with your truth.
Whenever it feels right for you,
In your own time today,
Bring your awareness back to your body.
Wiggling fingers and toes,
Gently rocking your hips from side to side.
Releasing tension in your jaw and open your eyes.
As long as your muscles connect to your Bars.
