The Throat Chakra is also called Visuddha, which is the Sanskrit term for “very pure”. True to its name, this fifth chakra gives a voice to your personal truths. It governs the mouth, tongue, neck, and throat. When this chakra is functioning at its full capacity, it allows you to express yourselves with true clarity.
Visuddha is the first of the higher or spiritual chakras on the chakra ladder. When your throat is out of balance, you'll have difficulty expressing your needs, desires, and opinions with themselves and others. You’ll be at a loss for words while trying to say how you truly feel.
But, when the throat chakra is in balance, you speak, listen, express yourselves openly and authentically.

Chakra meditation can be picked by anyone. It doesn’t matter if you have never tried meditation before. Ideally, you should practice throat chakra healing meditation once in a day for at least 10 minutes. Here’s how to get going:
Sit on a comfortable chair in a calm and quiet space.
Take deep breaths. Breathe in and breathe out for 10 times. Breathe in through your nose, and then exhale through your mouth.
Scan your body starting at the top of your head and moving down. Imagine your muscles relaxing as you go.
Once you have done this for the whole body, think of a blue (throat chakra color) colored ball spinning at the level of your throat. Imagine it glowing vibrantly.
Now see the blue ball growing bigger in size. Focus on the feeling of openness and relaxation in the throat.
Feel the energy spread through your body.
Open your eyes when you’re done and ready.
