It's not uncommon for many of us to feel an imbalance in our throat chakra,
An energy center located at the throat,
Which is our center of communication.
This often occurs when we are in environments or times where we are told to keep our thoughts to ourselves,
Or,
At least,
We feel compelled to do so.
This can also be a huge factor.
A blocked throat chakra can present itself with feeling anxious about speaking the truth,
Or speaking and communicating altogether.
A stiff neck and feelings of doubt can also indicate a blockage.
Another possible symptom is speaking too much without saying anything of meaning.
Remember,
The throat chakra also influences listening.
The following meditation is designed to open the throat chakra for both healing of self-expression and receiving communications.
If you would like to incorporate a crystal with this session by placing it on your throat or in front of you,
Lapis,
Luzali,
Or blue calcite can be helpful,
But this practice is effective without the use of crystals at all.
Be seated in a comfortable position with your spine straight and the crown of your head pointed towards the sky.
Close your eyes,
Take several deep breaths,
And let go of any tension you might be storing in your body.
Your jaw softens.
Your neck and shoulders relax.
Focus on your connection to the universe,
Realizing that you are supported and loved as you recognize your connection to an endless source of energy.
Take several deep breaths.
As you concentrate on the flow of your breath,
Feel Reiki energy coming into you through your crown chakra or the top of your head as you envision a white protective light surrounding you.
This healing energy,
Sourced from the universe,
Slowly travels to your throat chakra.
As you inhale,
Sense the Reiki energy filling you.
Take what you need.
As you exhale,
Allow any negative energy you might be storing to leave you.
Keep your focus on your breath.
See,
Sense,
And feel that bright healing light now at your throat.
Keep your attention here as you become aware of how your throat chakra responds to the nourishment of this energy by expanding and opening comfortably.
Spend a few moments absorbing this.
Feel all fear leaving this chakra and being replaced with the ability to speak clearly and securely.
You are safe.
Your words make sense,
And they matter.
You are loved.
You are supported by the universe.
You are able to express yourself as well as receive communication from others with love and light.
At your own pace,
Feel the Reiki energy moving up from your throat chakra to your crown chakra.
When you are ready,
Give thanks for this healing energy as it returns to the universe or source.
As you begin to open your eyes,
Take a few moments to feel your throat chakra being in perfect alignment.
You might feel a warming sensation in your throat.
You might feel sleepy.
You might feel or sense nothing at all.
Regardless,
The Reiki energy is now working for your highest good,
My dear friend.
Thank you for practicing Reiki with me.
Blessed Be.
