    Situated in the base of the throat, the fifth chakra is considered home to self-expression and your ability to communicate. It also serves as the “seat” of emotion.An overactive throat chakra can significantly impact your relationships and ability to function in life.

    • ear aches
    • neck pain
    • laryngitis

    When balanced, the throat chakra fosters clear, concise communication. You have no issues being honest regardless of the situation or company you’re in. However, when the throat chakra becomes too active the complete opposite happens.
