This week on Embodied Success the Podcast I discuss healing and activating our throat chakra so that we can let go of the fear of being seen/heard and express ourselves more authentically.
To start the episode I tell a story of healing my own throat chakra and how it has allowed me to not only host this podcast but also show up on camera, be more relaxed about public speaking and express my truth to others.
I then go through a six step process you can use to heal and activate your throat chakra which is:
1. Self Reflection
2. Experiment with Somatic Practices
3. Practice Mindfulness
4. Breathwork
5. Sound Therapy
6. Practice
In self reflection there are some common limiting beliefs that one may have if they feel blocked in their throat chakra. These are:
1. Fear of Judgment: "I believe that if I speak up or express myself, others will criticize, reject, or ridicule me."
2. Self-Worth Issues: "I feel unworthy or lacking confidence in my ideas, opinions, or creative expression."
3. Invalidation: "I think that my voice doesn't matter and that my opinions are not valid or important."
4. Fear of Conflict: "I'm afraid that if I express myself, it will lead to conflict or strain my relationships."
5. Past Trauma: "I have experienced being silenced, invalidated, or repressed, and I fear speaking out again."
6. Perfectionism: "I believe that my expression must be flawless or 'perfect,' which leads me to self-censor and inhibit myself."
In somatic practices I discuss EFT Tapping. Here is the link to my free EFT session for Throat Chakra activation https://stan.store/Soulma
