Namaste and welcome to the Spirit Room's daily podcast,
In the Flow with Lori Elmert,
Where we discuss spirituality,
Meditate,
And allow positivity to envelop every aspect of our souls.
Welcome!
You know,
I kind of wonder if it's possible or wise to have a favorite chakra.
I know that sounds kind of bizarre,
But you know,
I mean because they all have specific and more,
I didn't say more,
But they have specific and important things about each of them,
Right?
And they're all different and they're important in their own way,
Right?
But I feel like that sometimes,
Like I'll go through periods where I have a favorite.
I know that sounds weird,
But I know that might sound weird,
But I think depending on what is going on in your life might make us sort of feel what is happening with,
Like you might feel like you understand a particular chakra during a particular time.
I hope that makes sense,
Right?
For me,
The throat chakra is kind of not just important to me,
But more like sometimes I feel like it maybe sparkles a little bit brighter,
You know?
Now I know that the chakras can be,
Right?
Okay,
They can either be,
They can either be overacting,
They can be underacting,
Or they can be balanced.
They can be balanced,
Okay?
And just properly so,
Right?
Balance is definitely what you want your chakras to be,
Obviously,
Right?
Which is why we meditate on them,
Okay?
Makes sense,
Right?
But the throat chakra is so exciting to me.
I know that sounds silly that I would get so excited over a chakra,
But I do.
I have,
You know,
Sometimes it's like,
Oh my god,
The crown chakra is everything,
Right?
And then sometimes the solar plexus is everything,
Right?
But to me,
The throat chakra is exciting because I feel like it represents our lives,
Right?
It,
This is the chakra about communication and speaking our truth.
Not just the truth,
But our own individual truth.
Who are you really,
And how do you feel about that,
You know?
When all the crap and all of the junk is pushed aside,
Right?
Like I get tired and I get judgmental and I get this,
I get that.
When all of that stuff is pushed aside,
Who are we deep down?
Honestly,
I love getting to the bottom of this.
I know that sounds kind of crazy,
But I do.
But how,
Here's the bottom line.
How do we keep the shock,
This particular,
The throat chakra,
In balance?
How do we keep all the chakras in balance?
Well,
First you have to know that it's not exactly balanced if you fear expressing your truth or your thoughts or you get worried about speaking how you truly are.
That would be sort of an imbalance,
Right?
Now,
Before you get all freaked out about it,
You know,
Understand that we're all works in progress,
Okay?
So we hide a lot from ourselves and our loved ones.
That's just what we do,
You know?
We get caught up in trying so hard to fit in in the world that sometimes we lose sight of our truth.
But here's a few things about this.
Number one,
We're all the same this way,
Right?
You are not alone if you worry about one chakra or another,
Right?
And there are ways to begin to be your truth,
Right?
There are ways to begin to be your truth,
Right?
There are ways to begin to be your to begin to be your truth,
Right?
There's lots of things that you can do,
Okay?
Now,
Right now,
I'm just specifically talking about the throat chakra,
Okay?
There are ways to sort of give a little bit of oomph to certain chakras,
But today we're talking about the throat chakra,
Okay?
So a couple of interesting things that you can do to sort of give that little oomph to that to the throat chakra,
Right?
You can wear blue.
I mean,
It's as simple as that,
You know?
Wearing blue and it's like,
To me,
That goes into the conscious or the subconscious mind.
When you wear blue and you sort of see the blue,
It's sort of a,
Again,
Conscious or unconscious mind.
You remember truth,
Truth,
Speak your truth,
That sort of thing,
Right?
You can wear crystals.
Lapis lazuli is like my favorite.
Lapis lazuli or turquoise or aquamarine,
Right?
Now,
The next thing you can do to help with this,
This is really important and it's an interesting one,
You can journal,
Right?
For those that might think it's,
They might be concerned about speaking their truth.
You can always speak your truth in your journal.
You can start out that way.
You can start out that way,
You know?
Journaling is so important on so many levels.
It's important in manifestation,
Obviously.
It's important in speaking our truth because you can be anything you want to be in your journal.
And you know what?
I never got that.
You know what's really fascinating about that?
I never got that until,
I don't know,
Maybe 10 years ago,
You know?
I never quite understood that,
But it's important,
Right?
To be and speak your truth,
Right?
So what we're going to do is we're going to focus today,
We're going to focus on meditation.
I've got this amazing amazing meditation.
Of course,
I always say that,
Right?
We are going to focus on balancing of the throat chakra and I'm going to infuse a little bit of throat chakra energies,
A little bit of,
A little bit of,
Yeah,
Some energy in there,
Right?
So that we can create and feel and be our authentic selves.
I'll say it properly,
Right?
Oh my God,
My mom,
My mom was an English teacher,
So whenever I say something wrong,
It just kind of hits me like,
Okay,
Okay,
Okay,
You know?
So yes,
So we can be our authentic selves.
So let's do this.
Let's do this.
Let's get ready and do this meditation so that we can feel our truth.
I love the idea of just feeling our truth,
Right?
So let's sit quietly.
Let's get ourselves sitting in a very comfortable place.
Close your eyes when it feels right for you and start to feel the breath moving in and out of your body.
Very slow,
Methodical,
Feeling the breath,
That life-giving force.
So right now,
Just listen to my voice and silently repeat after me.
I am strong.
I am strong.
I trust myself.
I am truth.
I speak with courage and am aligned with the universe.
I am confident.
I live truth.
I speak truth and I am truth.
My throat chakra is pure,
Clear,
And balanced.
I am confident in the knowledge that any challenge that comes my way will be met with grace,
Truth,
And purity.
I invite in authenticity,
Positivity,
And creativity.
I am fully self-expressed.
I communicate clearly,
Openly,
And from a place of pure love.
My joy is my creativity.
I speak and listen from my heart.
I am courageous.
I am truth.
I am love.
Let's take a nice,
Long,
Deep breath in.
And release.
Namaste.
