On July 6th, 2023 we worked on both sides of the throat chakra as well as specifically on the thyroid gland.
The throat chakra is the fifth energy center of the body. Named Vishuddha Chakra in sanscrit, which means “especially pure." It signifies the purification of our thoughts, words, and actions, enabling us to embrace our true selves and communicate with clarity, honesty, and compassion.
Emotional signs that the throat chakra may be blocked are feelings of depression, anxiety, or low self-esteem. You may experience tension in your throat, clenching of the teeth or stiffness in the jaw. A blocked throat chakra can manifest as an inability to self-express with confidence; one might feel that they have nothing of value to share with the world when the throat is blocked; you lose confidence in your voice.
I started on the right side of the throat, which becomes impeded by energy related to speaking but not feeling heard or seen in relationships throughout our lives.
When we got to the left side the emotions felt heavier. I also felt that I was working on the left shoulder and neck tension. The left side of the throat gets impeded by unprocessed emotions related to not feeling like we can express ourselves. There were some early childhood spots in this energy that felt like our times at school, where sometimes we were told to be quiet. Also, this felt like relationships where full communication caused difficulties. When I got closer to the midline of the body, I found many people had an energetic construct of a throat filter. These are constructs we subconsciously create when we feel we constantly have to check what we say before speaking. These constructs are created for a reason that may have served us or may continue to serve us but they take up a great deal of our energy. For those in the group who felt they had a throat filter and were willing to let it go, I invited them to imagine the filter dissolving, then filling the space with light. Alternatively, participants could put them aside for now and see how they felt or keep them, knowing they could let them go in the future when they are ready.
Next the energy of the thyroid gland came up to be treated and this was very intense. It felt overwhelmed with the energy of not speaking our truth fully in our lifetimes. I spent a lot of time treating it but felt I could have spent hours on it. When we finished it turned out that a number of people in the group had specific thyroid issues.
This session was especially intense for me, even after all the work I've already done in this area! I was exhausted for days after this treatment and had some detox symptoms. However, my neck is now hardly stiff at all (it was normally all the time), my jaw is looser, I'm still clearing mucus from my throat and best of all I've felt perfectly confident in dealing with a few difficult confrontations I've dealt with since. It is as if I can now better compassionately disagree with others and not shy away from difficult situations.
