Hello and welcome to the Trust Your Truth guided meditation album.
This is the fifth meditation for the fifth chakra and the fifth chapter and this is all about connecting to and harnessing the power of your voice to be a vessel for truth to be spoken through you.
So in this chakra we're exploring how we can actually connect to the chakras that we've explored so far,
The roots,
The pelvis and the creativity,
The core and your sense of self,
Your heart and your capacity to feel,
To breathe into and harness all of that energy and give a voice to it to speak your truth.
So we're going to explore that in this meditation together and when you're ready you can go ahead and if it's comfortable for you close your eyes and tune your awareness inward.
And we'll begin by bringing the palms to face down on the thighs or the knees just taking a moment to ground.
If there's anything that you need here to adjust the physical body so that you can feel a sense of support and connection,
Of steadiness,
Of stability you can go ahead and make any adjustments now that feel desired or required.
Just noticing the pelvis,
The feet,
The palms facing down on the thighs or the knees and just connecting to your ability to arrive here in this body connecting to all of the lower chakras that we have explored so far.
The legs,
The tailbone,
The pelvis,
The hips,
The belly and the core,
The ribs and the heart.
And we'll begin by just engaging our throat chakra,
Our tongue,
The teeth,
The lips and the jaw.
So we're going to take three lion's breaths.
So we're going to inhale,
We'll do this together,
And then exhale,
Stick the tongue way out,
Open up the mouth,
Lion's breath.
Again,
Inhale,
Breathe into the fire of your belly and exhale a lion's breath,
Tongue all the way out,
Jaw open.
And once more,
Deep inhale and exhale a lion's breath.
So much of finding the voice and speaking truth is engaging the musculature and the freedom of the channel of the tongue,
Teeth,
Lips,
Throat and jaw.
And so connecting to your power,
Connecting to your embodied strength,
We are going to recite and repeat the mantra hum.
H-A-M,
It also somewhat sounds like hum,
Hum,
Hum.
And you can either listen to this vibration and receive the sound from me.
I also welcome you,
Especially with this chakra,
To join me in sound.
So let's take a deep inhale together.
Hum,
Hum,
Hum,
Hum,
Hum,
Hum,
Hum,
Hum.
And releasing that mantra,
The bija mantra,
Letting it go.
And slowly,
When you're ready,
If it feels appropriate for you,
We'll bring the palms to face up now in a gesture of receptivity,
Connecting to the vibration of sound,
Sound in the throat.
Noticing just this,
This vessel,
This channel of the throat,
Bringing the awareness to the breath as the breath moves past the throat,
Perhaps feeling the cool air touching the throat.
And as the body exhales,
Perhaps feeling the warm air moving through the throat.
Inhaling that sense of coolness in the To whatever degree is possible for you,
Imagine relaxing and softening the lips,
The teeth and the gums,
The roof of the mouth,
The tongue,
The lower jaw,
The place where the jaw hinges and connects to the skull,
The throat and the trachea,
Even the vocal cords.
Imagine,
To whatever degree is possible,
Maybe five or ten percent more relaxation in the muscles in and around the throat.
And just noticing the breath,
Noticing the body and considering and reflecting upon your voice as an instrument,
As a vehicle through which the truth flows and expresses itself through your channel,
Through your vessel.
And as the body inhales,
Imagine building a capacity,
Filling your tank up with breath.
And as the body exhales,
Just sense that the breath is a wave that has the capacity to carry the vibration of your voice,
Your truth,
Out of the body and into the surrounding space.
Inhaling,
You are receiving and building your capacity in your vessel.
And exhaling,
The wave of breath is this potentiality,
This opportunity for your truth to be deeply felt,
Heard,
Expressed and known in the surrounding world.
And inhaling,
Breathing into the throat and visualizing the color blue,
Crystal clear vibration in the center of the throat.
Exhaling,
Imagining that color blue,
Traveling and journeying as if your truth is making its way to wherever it needs to be heard in the corners of the earth.
Your truth has the capacity to move beyond you.
Gently begin to wiggle the fingers and wiggle the toes.
Invite the littlest bit of movement into the body.
And we'll inhale to reach the arms up overhead as if you're reaching for the truth above you.
And then exhaling,
Gathering that truth,
Bringing it right to the center of the heart and bringing the hands just a little bit higher today,
Resting towards the top of the chest.
Thumbs are a little bit closer to the throat.
And we'll take a deep inhale together and as we exhale,
We're just going to hum and feel the vibration in the throat.
Deep inhale.
Exhale,
Humming in the throat.
And bowing the chin to the chest,
Honoring and acknowledging the throat chakra as this link between the mind,
The head and the heart.
May we have the courage and the freedom to allow the wind energy,
The air of truth to move through this body and this vessel.
May we speak that which deeply desires to be heard and felt and expressed and known.
May that expression come through,
May it resonate through the cells of our bodies and may that vibration of truth reach all of the souls who would benefit from receiving this vibration of peace,
Healing,
Empowerment and deep truth.
Deep,
Full inhale into the body.
And deep,
Complete exhale,
Letting it all go.
And as you're ready,
Let the eyes flutter open.
Take in the light.
Notice what you see.
And welcome back.
