Signs of Overactivity in the Throat Chakra
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.
Common physical symptoms of an overactive throat chakra can include mouth and jaw problems, chronic sore throat, and colds. Additional physical ailments associated with an overactive throat chakra include:
- 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.
Speaking rudely, out of turn, or maliciously are common indicators your fifth chakra needs attention. Looking down on others, you become highly critical of minute details. The slightest, most innocent comment from someone may strike you as intentionally rude. You may even speak negatively about yourself, or others, to the point it borders on verbal abuse.
Additional common non-physical signs of imbalance include:
- gossiping
- non-stop talking
- arrogance
- condescension
Cleansing and Balancing An Overactive Throat Chakra
The calming color blue is commonly associated with confidence, truth, wisdom, and faith. All of which are also attributes tied directly and indirectly to characteristics associated with the throat chakra.
In most cases, incorporating positive changes into your lifestyle can help immensely, including eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly. When simple lifestyle changes aren’t enough, consider introducing aromatherapy, yoga, or sound therapy, such as singing, to your situation — yes, singing — even if it’s just in the shower. Exercising the vocal cords can dispel blockages in the fifth chakra.
Depending on the severity of your chakra imbalance, consulting with an energy healer is also something to consider.

Focus on your Throat Chakra when you meditate. Think of the color blue and possibly get any blue minerals/Gemstones such as Lapis Lazuli or Sodalite. There are tons of them. Meditate with the stones and do the physical work that was mentioned in the article. I hope this helped.

Hello
I am seeking information on the activation of the throat chakra without the thyroid gland being present,
The thyroid has been removed medically, with regret!
Is my throat chakra now in danger with its ability to activate?
Many thanks in advance
Kay
Great post with lots of imntroapt stuff.
Your thyroid was removed, not your chakra. The chakras are energy centers. Bring awareness to this chakra when meditating. There are many guided meditation you can listen to. Your thyroid issue may have developed as a result of an unbalanced throat chakra. So put the work into improving yourself as in the areas in the article. Look deep within with honesty of what you need to change. Meditate and use the crystals associated with this energy center. But continue with your medical regime associated with your thyroid removal. Don’t stop taking medication without a physician approval. Having thyroid removed will likely result in a replacement for it in medication. Balance is what you need now.
