The throat chakra lies in the center of our neck just where our throat is. It includes the neck, jaw, tongue, throat, mouth, vocal cords, and the Thyroid gland. The throat is also known as the sound chakra, hence vocal cords!! It is also known as the Vishudda for “purity.” When the throat is balanced, you feel a sense of empowerment because you feel heard, your communication skills are strengthened, and it seems you always know just what to say and how to say it.
