In the energy body there are seven primary chakras, or energy centers. These centers can be viewed in a similar way like our organs, playing important roles in our lives. In this article we will talk about the function of the throat chakra.

Chakras, just like organs, each serve a specific role. The word chakra is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning wheel. The throat chakra focuses on our ability to communicate.

Communication is often thought of as an exchange between two people. Much of our communication focuses on our use of words. There are many forms of communication that combine the use of words with gestures and symbols, such as sign language.

Looking beyond words we use more than the symbols of words to get across our message. There is the look in our eyes, the way we move physically, and the tilt of our mouth. We use tone and volume, even silence.

The communication chakra does not work alone, but serves as the passageway for the many other chakras or spiritual centers in the body. When we use our communication skills we combine body mind and spirit through our ideas, feelings, belief system, and perceptions.

There is another aspect of the throat chakra that is called the inner voice. This ability connects us body, mind and spirit. Our inner voice is the conduit to connect to our own emotions, feelings, perceptions, knowledge and our higher spiritual powers.

Another part of the throat chakra is telepathy. While this name is often recognized many of us believe we have little or no experience with this ability. Telepathy does not use the physical means of communication, so there is no evidence of how much we really use this style of communication.

The chakra system holds no mystery, for each chakra is directly related to an aspect of our physical expression of self. Learning more about your energy system can enhance your life, for having more understanding of the chakra system will bring you to greater understanding of yourself. Since the energy body serves the physical, healing the chakra usually translates to healing the body.
