Welcome to In the Flow,
A positivity-provoking podcast designed to lift us up to that higher place to live our best lives.
We will laugh,
Cry,
Meditate,
And discuss any and all things spiritual to learn and remove any stigma surrounding spiritual gifts,
Meditation,
Prayer,
And the afterlife.
Today is,
I declare it,
To be throat chakra day.
So today is throat chakra day.
What does that mean exactly,
Right?
You guys are all like,
Uh,
Okay.
So I want to talk,
Since I've been talking about taking a day per chakra,
Today I want to talk about the throat chakra.
I feel intimately connected with the throat chakra.
I've always been really good at communication,
Or at least I feel like I am anyway,
Really pretty good at communication.
Most of my life anyway.
But when I started developing my spiritual gifts,
I found my life's purpose.
And that is what,
Well,
Communication and your life's purpose,
Figuring out your life's purpose and expressing and being your truth,
That's what the throat chakra is about.
And so I feel like,
And I'm sure that if you feel like that you know your life's purpose,
You might understand this,
You know,
That like when you start to really focus on these chakras and you understand what each one of them sort of represents and that sort of stuff,
It brings into,
It makes things more tangible to be able to like focus on something and know that you're starting,
Like if you focus on your throat chakra,
You can,
It can help you figure out your life's purpose.
I know so many people that have no idea what their life's purpose is and are searching actively for it,
Right?
So I say,
Let's focus on the throat chakra,
You know?
Right?
So what is the throat chakra?
It's obviously on your throat.
It sort of rules your throat and your thyroid and your jaw and your mouth,
Ironically your mouth communication,
You know,
It's like really cool.
It's you know,
I just love the whole thing with the chakras because it makes,
It's just,
It's so logical.
Anyway,
For something to me so spiritual,
For it to be logical is really pretty fun.
So when this chakra is blocked,
You might have issues with your creativity,
Right?
And how you feel and yeah,
Your creativity and that sort of thing,
Right?
But what you can do to help yourself sort of open up the chakra and maybe cleanse it a little bit or,
You know,
Sort of start to heal it,
Right?
You can focus on blue because the color is blue.
The color is blue and if you start focusing on blue where,
And I know I've said this about the other ones,
But exactly right.
Wear blue clothes,
Eat blue food.
I don't know.
Blueberries.
There you go.
There is blue food.
I was like,
Wait,
Is there blue cheese?
There you go.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Now that's,
Where's that sending me down the road?
Oh my God.
Okay.
So right.
So you focus on that and what that doesn't necessarily serve as a,
An important thing to do.
But what that does is whenever you see the blue or if you burn a blue candle,
When you see it,
You kind of,
Your brain goes to,
Oh,
Throw chakra.
You put your attention on there,
Right?
But what's cool is,
Is that if you want to place your attention on your throat chakra,
You can,
The crystals involved,
Turquoise,
Right?
Turquoise,
Blue topaz,
Right?
So you can wear those or just have them around.
The essential oils,
Lavender,
Which kind of makes no sense,
But lavender and chamomile.
Interestingly,
Both of those essential oils also were very calming.
And so I don't know,
And to me,
It helps me to think that it's going to,
These essential oils can help us relax into figuring out our life's purpose and our communication and,
You know,
Our living our truth.
Living and living,
Speaking our truth.
That's a tough thing.
So I know many people that can't,
That can't,
Not that they don't,
But they can't speak their truth.
Right?
So focusing on our,
On our throat chakra really can help us with that.
You know,
Open those doors or whatever.
Right?
So the Sanskrit word is vishuddha for the throat chakra.
And the note,
Because we're about to meditate on this,
The note for the throat chakra is D.
Okay?
And so we're going to meditate on this and I'm going to play the D chord on my Shruti box and the mantra,
Oh my gosh,
It's Monday.
It is,
Oh my gosh.
The mantra is ham,
Like ham,
Only ham.
Okay?
And so that is where we just go to the throat chakra and we just place our attention on it.
Okay?
So let's meditate.
Yay!
I hope everybody is feeling this,
You know,
Is understanding this energy,
What's going on and living through it.
It's crazy.
The energy out there right now is a little bit weird.
Right?
But we have to just take our deep breath,
Maybe meditate a little bit and just keep going forward.
Okay?
So I just wanted to say that because that's so,
It's such a powerful thing to do,
You know?
So,
All right,
So let's get ourselves comfortable.
You can sit,
You can lay down,
You can be whatever you want to be.
Let's close our eyes whenever you're ready.
Get comfortable.
Let's take a nice deep breath in and release it.
Oh,
That's so perfect.
So before we get started,
What are we going to talk about?
Let's place our attention on right now just a few things that we are grateful for.
What are you,
What are you grateful for?
Let's raise our vibration a little bit and focus on some great things in life.
Right?
Everybody has at least one thing that they can be grateful for,
Even in the face of all of the junk energy going on.
There's always going to be at least one thing that we can be grateful for.
What is that for you?
What is that?
So today,
In our meditation,
Let's create an intention surrounding our speaking our truth or our life's purpose.
If you're trying to figure out your life's purpose,
Let's make that our intention for this meditation.
Understanding our life's purpose,
Being better at communicating,
Speaking our truth.
So as we do this,
As we go through this meditation,
Let's place our attention on our throat chakra.
And if you feel like you need to,
You can put your hand over your throat.
That's absolutely fine.
The mantra is ham.
H-A-M,
Ham.
And you can chant along with me.
You can just listen.
It's about the vibration.
So keep going on in your head.
Ham.
You can say it out loud,
Whatever.
It's about the vibration.
Ham.
Ham.
Ham.
Ham.
Let's start bringing our awareness back to our bodies.
Let's take a nice deep breath in.
And release it.
Releasing it to the world,
Our intention that we've created.
Whenever you feel comfortable you can open your eyes.
I don't know about you guys,
But I am still vibrating.
I can feel my body vibrating from chanting.
That's so awesome.
Absolutely wonderful.
What a great feeling for today.
I am so honored that you would spend this time with me getting to know your throat chakra.
Until next time everyone,
Namaste.
