The seventh chakra, the crown chakra, is centered at the widest spot of the fontanelle that you had as a baby.  Associated with the pituitary gland, the seventh is your instrument of direct communication with the Divine.  This communication stimulates your evolution toward at-one-ment is mostly temporary.  However, it grows more and more lasting as your seventh chakra becomes open, clear and active.  Your consciousness becomes such that you comprehend the variety and complexity as well as the connectedness of all things.  You are in wakeful contact with each plane of your existence, and have the integrity and courage to deeply examine each of your inner worlds.  Your personality is also very strong, yet gentle.  You're able to manage earthly elements and to flow with forces beyond our earth, yet you do so with ample kindness for humanity.  Meanwhile you maintain a rather detached perspective on yourself and your many little ways.  At the time of your death you remain totally aware, knowing that you are dying and going ahead with it anyhow.  

The evolved consciousness of an open crown chakra, together with good function and balance in the other major centers, may be called self-realization.  Self-realization does not come about unless all the chakras are equally active.  One may have a wide-open seventh, but rarely will one be able to take responsibility for mundane tasks.  There are others who may be creative geniuses, whose seventh, sixth, and fifth are their only fully functional chakras and who consequently require someone else to look after them and care for their earthly needs. Kind of likened to the "absent minded professor."

When the seventh chakra is closed up, you create or perpetuate a condition of limited growth.  In some cultures, men and women alike wear head coverings that tend to restrict seventh-chakra activity and curtail personal unfolding.  To keep on living a limited life is the most severe form of inner dishonesty and delusion.  For many people the only experience of access to the Source occurs at the moment of death.

A closed seventh leads both to a fear of dying and a fear of enjoying life.  The delusion takes hold that if you really enjoy life, you're bound to lose it.  So you cling to the closed attitude that "life is suffering, and then you die."  This delusion can be likened to someone with a victim mentality.

Few of us are clear in the seventh chakra.  For some of us, it's enough merely to be aware of the fact that we have a seventh chakra.  To take the first steps toward opening and using the seventh calls for great courage and dedication, because there's no turning back.  Once you begin the process, you'll never again be content with devoting yourself to conventional, mundane goals for their own sake.  No degree of wealth or status or worldly achievement will give you a sense of fulfillment, unless you can manage this while realizing your seventh-chakra perceptions and priorities.

It's far preferable to open the seventh very gradually, by the natural means of meditation, prayer, essential oils, and the use of crystals.  As you do so, meanness and selfish ambition melts away.  You'll find it increasingly difficult to act "unconsciously" or "with diminished capacity," above all toward another person.  This doesn't mean that you refrain from anger and other strong emotions.  It means you are able to use anger appropriately and constructively as a tool for self-defense or for sparking another person's higher self.

When you start living your life according to seventh-chakra consciousness, you enter into the realm of unconditional love - within yourself and with other sentient beings.  Unconditional love is the greatest power in the Universe.  It burns negative karma and can enable you to do ten years' worth of growing in a fraction of that time. 

For opening and balancing the crown chakra, the most recommended single oils include: .  Oil blends include: Frankincense, Myrrh, Jasmine, and Lavender.  Oil Blends that are highly recommended are 3 Wise Men, Gathering, Inspiration.  Apply one drop with one drop carrier oil on the top of the head.

Young Living Essential Oils is about health and how essential oils like Basil, Geranium, Eucalyptus and other Aromatherapy Oils sooth, clear, rejuvenate, stimulate, and even strengthen mental focus and concentration.  How essential oils affect deeply has been proven time and again and these days, more and more people resort to oils instead of drugs, knowing that oils go beyond merely relieving a person of the symptoms of disease. They go deep into chakra levels to balance energies that overburden or under-utilize the physical body.

You can use essential oils that rejuvenate and give the body a boost of energy after a long day’s exposure to the pain of fatigue. Of course, prevention is still the best cure, and there are oils for that, but for the average human, one cannot avoid exposure due to the need to earn a living or when we take on stress in any way.

Essential oils hydrate, oxygenate and detoxify by boosting circulation and minimizing obstructions. They are not invasive but will penetrate the skin, rather quickly, and enter the bloodstream without hampering the natural functioning of the other organs of the human body. They only require delicate application, sometimes by mere smelling, and will still be powerful and effective especially when it comes to dealing with stress-related physical ailments. They can calm the heart while boosting circulation. They can improve and enhance digestion and liver functioning and one very interesting benefit is how oils affect the chakra and energy balance in the body. 

Oils have a direct connection to yoga and yoga techniques in that they help achieve what yoga wants to accomplish, via the asana and meditative practices, for energy balance in the body. Yoga and essential oils, together, will give the practitioner a myriad of physical, spiritual and mental benefits that shame the way drugs work. Oils are natural and there are increasing indications of appreciation in the use of what is natural in the body. Oils have been used for thousands of years in Yoga practicing countries, as well as in many parts of the world, for health and to bring balance in the chakra system. When mixed with coconut or olive oil, to rub the feet or the physical locations of the chakra, they’ve been known to promote mental peace and interior balance and therefore heightened spirituality. When used for meditation, these oils enhance tranquility and the practitioner of yoga is able to achieve concentration quickly and with ease.

• For the root chakra – use patchouli for grounding and stability
• For the Sacral Chakra – use sandalwood and Ylang-Ylang for improved sexuality and reproductive system as well as creativity.
• For the Solar Plexus chakra, use cinnamon for improved self-confidence
• For the Heart Chakra, use rose for combating depression and enhancing sleep.
• For the Throat Chakra, use eucalyptus to clear the sinuses and enhance self-expression.
• For the Third Eye, use lavender for instant calm. Also great for headaches and spiritual enhancement.
• For the crown Chakra, frankincense for mental peace and clarity and a heightened sense of oneness with the universe.

Aromatherapy oils trigger the limbic factor in the brain which is connected to memory.  When used repeatedly, aromatherapy oils work more and more effectively because the body automatically responds with every new application. Thus, merely smelling this oil creates a soothing, rejuvenating and clearing effect, in addition to its numerous dermatological benefits.  For instance, lavender creates an instant calming effect and can be an antiseptic that protects the skin naturally. Another is Tea Tree which is also an antiseptic with powerful aroma-therapeutic effects. I say powerful because the essences of these oils go into the bloodstream and urinalysis will reveal the depth of their penetration.

Here are some oils that affect the mind and body. 

1. Basil sparingly applied – is best for concentration and mental stimulation
2. Eucalyptus - excellent for mental stimulation, concentration, and for combating fatigue and rheumatic pain
3. Geranium - The aroma of Geranium instantly lifts the emotions from suffering anxiety thereby balancing the mind that is frequently bombarded by stress.
4. Peppermint - for the relief of mental fatigue
5. Rosemary - a stimulant for memory and brain enhancement.  Best used in the morning but should be avoided by pregnant women, people with hypertension, and epilepsy.

Merely smelling these oils, using a cotton ball or tissue or directly from the container will provide great benefits.  Some people use these oils as perfumes and apply wherever they wish.

At Young Living we believe in the holistic approach to health.  Oils are safe, effective, and natural when applied according to directions.

Spring cleaning isn't just for the home, it can also be done to our bodies once in a while. Detoxifying is one of the best ways to clean out the toxins and most of the time it is done to keep organs working great as well as keeping toxin levels to an all-time low. Some do it to get rid of negative vibes, some detox to lose weight, while some people do it just to be fit and healthy.

Nowadays, our way of living (no matter how clean we choose to live) contributes to the level of toxins our body accumulates over time. It is only fair that we detox once in a while so we enjoy more energy and overall wellbeing - which is also good for one’s mental health.

Detoxifying with essential oils is one of the most relaxing ways to do it.  Knowing the right kind of oils to use will make you feel better physically, emotionally and mentally - way better than popping a pill in your mouth.

The following are the kinds of oils you can use to help yourself detoxify:

Juniper Oil
Has a great antioxidant property. Keeps the digestive system working smoothly. Juniper oil relaxes the mind so you can sit back and chill while getting rid of pain. When it comes to its diuretic magic, it helps get rid of toxins, water weight and too much sodium in the body.


Peppermint Oil
Commonly used in the baths, consumed orally and applied on skin. Some choose to drink it with their detox smoothie and sometimes adding it to water works just as well. It keeps and maintains your level of concentration and helps soothe the digestive system.  Frequently mixed with other oils for better results.

Grapefruit Oil
Though most are used to eating the fruit itself, the oil helps the body better especially when it comes to detoxifying. It is known to kill viruses in the body as well as the microbes. Like any detox oil, it also cleans the body by getting rid of all the toxins and wastes.

Rosemary Oil
Not only is it an amazing herb to use when cooking but its oil has amazing detox effects as well.  It helps improve one’s digestion, circulation, has anti-inflammatory benefits as well diuretic properties. It is known to ward off cancer and memory loss. You can inhale the oil (by aromatherapy), use it in a bath or use it as massage oil.

Orange Oil
Orange isn’t just for quenching your thirst; its oil is highly beneficial as well.  It helps relax muscular and nervous spasms, provides relief from inflammations and it even increases one's libido. It boosts one's immunity, gets rid of toxins by promoting urination and constipation. 

Lemon Oil
Known to have astringent properties that lemon has been known to have, it has the ability to prevent cancer, clean the lymphatic system as well as the respiratory system. It can reduce inflammation as well. Adding the oil in baths or in detox shakes adds that zest to keep you going.

Patchouli Oil
This oil is known to help boost ones mood and can even improve one’s sex life. Add this oil to water or tea and even in your bath, with epsom salt, and let it soothe your mind. 

Hyssop Oil
Its greatest benefit is for your digestive system because it sorts out the problem and it helps improve digestion.   It is a great way to kick-start your detox day.

Helichrysum Oil
Most of this oil’s benefit is for the skin because it keeps it healthy and hydrated as possible. It aids in regenerating cells as well as lowering the amount of inflammation on one’s body.

JuvaCleanse Oil
JuvaCleanse oil is a mix of Helichrysum, Ledum, and Celery oil. This blend is used to improve liver functions by cleaning it as well as keeping the skin and nervous system in tip top shape. Detoxifying using this oil will not only help your body but will also harmonize and balance the mind. This is one of my all-time favorite oils!

5 day nutritive cleanse
The total package! Best option if you choose to go all out when it comes to detoxifying your body. (which is advised do 3-4 times a year). Has the following: Ningxia Red - helps in giving you energy and keeping your body replenished. Balance complete- provides you with amazing energy and nutritive cleansing. Digest + cleanse - soothes gastrointestinal discomfort and aids in healthy digestion.

​Stronger love frequencies are noted today.  Are you feeling it?  I’m receiving the energetic messages of the entrance of freedom to a more expanded love.  Also, the message that Light Workers who’ve felt separation, misunderstood, used to not belonging within your tribal origins (your biological families in particular) because of your ability to hold space of unconditional love - are being called to recognize your worth and accept the higher frequencies moving you from holding the space of love to the more expanded space of JOY for humanity.  The Universe is “upping the ante.”  And, Light workers, it’s your time to shine.

Many of you find yourselves moving back and forth from higher vibrations to the lower vibrational frequencies because you are attempting to pull people you love, who are stuck in lower frequencies, up and along with you.  Many of you are already seeing this as evidenced in your communications with others who cannot “hear” you, who continuously misunderstand you, who have judged and labeled you the villain when you mirror truth, who can only interpret you through their heavier filters.  This may be manifesting in arguments, disagreements, denigration, hypersensitivity, frustration, confusion, fuzziness, vanity, co-dependency, insecurity, etc., in either or both of you.

Here is where you have the opportunity to trust what is happening.  The more you try to control your relationships out of need, the worse they will get.  This is a sign as the Universe is giving you the opportunity to decide what your priorities are.  Are your priorities love, joy, happiness and expansion?  Or are your priorities the lower frequencies of money, war, alcohol, drugs, sex with those whom you do not resonate?  The perpetuation of separation through engaging in distractions such as politics?  Greed?  Envy? Comparing?  Competition?  Remember, you have the gift of free-will.

The more you hang on to that which weighs you down and keeps you mired in the heaviness of lower vibrations, the more you may suffer.  

Continuous release will help you stay in your center and move you up the wrung of the ascension ladder to JOY.  But, remember, more and more souls on this planet are still working on and attempting LOVE.  If you have already internalized and embodied the LOVE frequency, it is now time to move into JOY.  You may find that being with those who are still working on LOVE no longer resonates with you, in the same way, because you are moving into the more ethereal JOY vibration.  Trust this discomfort.  Allow it to come in and settle into your be-ing.  Do not resist it.  Because, it is in the surrender and acceptance of this discomfort, that it no longer has power over you and you dissolve and release lower vibrational frequencies which will move you into a better place.

Once you get to that place of JOY then you will be holding the space for others to be in that resonance along with you. And, you will attract more and better that mirrors who you really are. 

Since we are spiritual beings and since we are connected to all that is, we are doing those who are still working on accepting LOVE a disservice by holding onto them as we now become their distraction to their own SELF-LOVE as evidenced by the communication issues, I spoke of earlier, that you may be having.  It is time for Light workers to stop enabling those to stay mired into that which weighs them down.  Love is freedom. Love takes no prisoners. Love is constantly releasing.  

Releasing a situation, releasing someone, releasing old emotions and baggage - all serve love and joy.  This does not mean you have to completely disassociate yourself from certain people or situations, it just means your “relationship” to those people and situations take on a different form.  This is possible for the more highly evolved who can release quickly and stop holding on to attachments while remaining centered, within their be-ing, and continuing to love that person or situation regardless of what form the “relationship” takes.

It is advised that we all look at what needs to be released.  Trust the Universe (or God, or whatever you want to call it). Go with the flow of what is happening.  And just let go. 

Wishing you love, blessings, peace, and JOY.

The sixth chakra (the third eye) is your line to creative energy, and to the kind of comprehension that transcends intellectual knowing.  Its two principle functions are intuition and inspiration - access to knowledge that is not learned externally, hunches and visions beyond the reach of the five senses.  The sixth is therefore the main channel for all the creative arts.  Though sixth-chakra impressions are primarily pictorial, the sixth also acts in combination with the other chakras to turn concepts into worldly reality.  The sixth and fifth, working together, enable you to hear original melodies and songs in addition, to details of songs remembered.  When you dance with an open sixth, you are the dance - creativity in physical motion.  The energy just pours through you.

Since the sixth chakra is the organ of subliminal vision, the way to "see" past, present, future,  and entities on the "other side" is through the third eye.  When the sixth is open and balanced, clairvoyance results.  Those who wish their psychic and creative abilities to expand are advised to work slowly and lovingly at opening the sixth for themselves.  On the other hand, consistent failure to honor one's intuitions inevitably causes a shrinking of the sixth.

Blockage of the sixth chakra can lead to an ultra-rational attitude, or, in combination with a restricted first chakra (root) to a diminished and negative self-image.  Hallucinations and spiritual exhibitionism are symptoms of imbalance.  Excess is personified by the "God-playing Guru, or by the kind of person who is both intensely overbearing and psychically sapping. In our culture, people routinely fog up and impair their sixth chakra envisioning by steady use of alcohol and/or processed tobacco.

It's very difficult to keep in touch with your own intuition unless you remain clear and receptive in your third-eye chakra.  Almost all the messages you send and receive are interpreted through the sixth.  So it's of utmost importance that you develop it and protect it.  Once you begin developing and protecting it, you'll be able to open up your third eye with full confidence that you won't be invaded or hurt.

With respect to your general well-being it isn't necessary that you have perfect balance in the sixth chakra, or in any of the chakras.  Certainly you'll want to keep advancing toward this end, but in the meantime perfection is not a prerequisite to accessing your third eye.  I encourage you to utilize the powers of the sixth chakra to the best of your capacity.  On that note, here are the oils that will best help you open and balance the third-eye (sixth) chakra:

Single Oils include: Lavender, Rosemary, Clary Sage, Patchouli, Helichrysum.  Oil blends include: White Angelica, Awaken, Dream Catcher, Transformation.  Apply one drop with one drop carrier oil between the eyebrows.

Effects of stress, as a result of bad memories and experiences, grief and loss, are devastating. We cannot underestimate the need to let go of old baggage, old relationships, outdated belief systems, and people who have hurt us in the past.  The majority of people have something that bogs them down emotionally, something that takes toll  of their lives mentally and physically, and when we have not dealt with it, the consequences can lead to devastating effects. Old emotional baggage can be a result of several factors, it could be a nasty situation or a person which you encountered in life that hurt you terribly,  it could be plans that you were holding onto that suddenly went awry, it could be a trauma that you faced while you were young and possibly this trauma has somehow not been released from your energy field.  Perhaps you have tried many methods and none has helped.  I'm here to tell you that  one should not lose hope because there are many ways to release.  One of the services I provide is to guide people with emotional baggage through guided meditation coupled with essential oils to help identify and release that which weighs you down from moving forward in life.  
 
Essential oils have been proven, in my healing practice, to work and eventually empower my client(s) to lead happy, more fulfilling lives. But it's a process.  A very rewarding process.

For my clients who value full body and full emotional wellness, a chance to deal with a problem or a belief system which keeps one stuck that  might have taken its toll in one's life has been gratefully accepted and welcomed.  We are all aware that there is no greater wealth than good health and most people  would do anything in their capacity to ensure that they achieve optimal health. Essential oils are meant to do just that: to help us in attaining our best form by raising our vibrational frequencies. Aromatherapy (therapeutic use of essential oils) is something that has been around for many years and has  been tried and found to be effective.   Those who have used these products have  learned of their intense power and a special kind of energy that can only be found in these kinds of oils.

Therapeutic grade essential oils are extracted directly from the plant , so those who may be having thoughts of being harmed by the oil need not worry as they are suitable for human consumption. The fact that they are obtained in their natural form means that they have life force energy that can be used for certain intentions. Conventional wisdom concurs that the amount of energy contained in the oils is high enough to release all the negative energy stored in our bodies. Here's how it works on a spiritual, energetic level:  Basically, everything is alive, everything is constantly changing and everything has a meaning.  Our bodies are a dense culmination of Karmic energy and, therefore, each of us "vibrates" at our own frequency based on all that we have accumulated and released up to now.  Therefore, certain organs in our bodies carry certain emotions through our energy systems called chakras.  The way essential oils work is they seep into the emotions and can change our frequencies for the better.   They are known to be transmitted directly to the part of the brain which is known as the emotional control center. This is the point where the decision on where emotions are to be stored in our bodies are made. This may seem like a very complex process but understanding it is easy especially when this has been part of life experiences.

When it comes to the application of the essential oils, you need to do it in the recommended way which ensures that you achieve the desired result. Be sure to follow the instructions and be assured you are on a journey to achieve full and balanced positive energy. When done in the right way, under the right regime  you are assured that the feelings will be awakened, you will feel those feelings as you release them, and then you can be left with a feeling of courage, excitement, well-being and even joy.

It is also important to make sure you inhale by diffusing the essential oils appropriate for release, allowing the therapeutic aroma to massage your inner spirit.  It is important to stay aware and allow your emotions to surface without attempting to distract yourself from them, to stay present with them - because the more you do this the quicker you will release negativity.  Otherwise, this process will draw out very long and you may be discouraged to continue on.    Note that this one process will not be wiping your slate completely clean, but will be making yourself ready to start afresh, once again, by clearing the way for new and better to come into your life.

If you have been carrying old baggage, it is high time you let it go, they will continue weighing you down unless you do something about it. Most clients say it is so refreshing to let the dead weight off their shoulders.  Essential oils have been tried and tested and found to be very effective along these lines as you will not only feel energized but also feel like a part of some huge load that has been weighing you down has been lifted. There is so much joy in doing this as the quality of your life will be truly enhanced.

Applying essential oils for release will help you open the inner self as you will feel traumatic and negative past experiences melting right away.  When this happens your inner voice will slowly come back, giving you the energy that has been hidden inside and, based on my own experiences with essential oils,  it is an experience that has positively changed my life for the better. The sweet fragrance will stimulate your memories helping in reconnecting with authentic self. Once you have managed to open the true self , you will have successfully completed an important step in finding the emotional balance that perhaps has been so evasive.

What oils are best to use for release?  Young Living Essential Oils offers several - however, it needs to be said that this is a very simplistic guideline for "letting go," releasing, and allowing the uplifting feeling of peace and emotional freedom to root into your psyche.  Emotional health is a precious gift to our well-being because without it we are simply not living a life of fulfillment.

1. Valor - is a Young Living Essential Oil blend that is used when we need to prepare for an emotional release.  It helps balance energies within the body and helps to give courage, self-esteem and confidence.  
2. Harmony - is a great blend that promotes physical and emotional healing through harmonic balance of the energy centers of the body, enabling energy to flow more efficiently. It helps reduce stress which, in itself, creates an overall sense of well-being.
3. Sacred Frankincense - helps to regulate emotions, reduces feelings of stress, and is calming.  It eases depression around the traumatic experiences of life, whether in times of divorce, bereavement, or other emotional losses.  Promotes confidence and purpose as the feelings of negativity disappear.  It also stimulates the body's immune system.
4. 3 Wise Men - this blend was formulated to open the subconscious mind through pineal stimulation to release deep-seated trauma encoded in our DNA.  It opens the crown chakra and stimulates the limbic system, bringing a sense of grounding and uplifting through positive memory recall.
5. Release - this blend helps a person let go of the energy that comes from anger and hate held within the cells of the liver in order to create emotional peace and well-being.  Freedom comes from being at peace rather than from harboring negative emotions.
6. Idaho Balsam Fir - is a wonderful aroma that is very grounding and relaxing to the body.  It helps with the effects of seasonally affective disorders (which I have suffered from), lifting depression.  This oil stimulates the immune system, creating an increase of energy and a sense of well-being. Breathing in this aroma brings in the feeling of security.
7. Inner Child - is a blend that may stimulate childhood memory.  When children experience abuse or trauma, they can become "disconnected" from the inner child or identity.  This disconnection may not be apparent until many years later, manifesting itself as a "midlife crisis."  The Inner child fragrance may stimulate memory response, helping one reconnect with his or her fundamental identity. This is an essential step to achieving emotional balance.
8. Forgiveness - has a very high electrical frequency that can help release negative memories to facilitate forgiveness, letting go, and moving on.
9. Grounding - is helpful in situations where one is overexcited about new ideas or wants to escape into a protective fantasy.  In this kind of mental state, it is easy to make choices that lead to bad relationships, bad business decisions, and other unfortunate circumstances.  We seek for an escape because we have no anchor to know how to deal with negative emotions.  This EO helps restore confidence and peace, enabling us to deal logically and peacefully with life's decisions.
10. Hope - is a formula that helps to reconnect with a feeling of strength and optimism for the future.  Hope must be in place in order to move forward in life.  Hopelessness can cause a loss of vision of goals and dreams, making it impossible to release emotional blocks.  This may help in overcoming tendencies toward depression.
11. Joy - is a wonderful exotic blend of Ylang Ylang, Bergamot, and pure Bulgarian Rose oil and produces a magnetic energy to attract love and enhance self-love, bringing joy to the heart.
12. Present Time - this fragrance has an empowering effect that gives a feeling of being "in the moment."  It's a wonderful blend that helps those who are practicing mindfulness or "presence" and are in need of a little staying present.  One can only progress through emotional release when in the present time.
13. SARA - is an essential oils blend formulated specifically for opening the limbic system to release the memories of serious trauma connected with Sexual and/or Ritual Abuse.
14. White Angelica - is an amazing blend (men usually like this better than the EO, Joy) of 18 different oils, some of which were used during ancient times to increase the aura around the body, bringing a delicate sense of strength and protection.  Its frequency protects against negative energies and helps to create a feeling of wholeness and oneness with the Creator.
15. Take Time - while in a quiet, meditative space choose an oil of your choice to enhance this process, reflect on your goals, your dreams, and on the positive things in your life, along with the things that you are choosing to change in your life.

If you need help, I am available for consultations for the proper use of essential oils for release. I will also recommend that, if you are diligently working on releasing traumas from the past, you see a mental health professional.  Seeing a mental health professional will ensure you receive the proper support during this time of transformation.  Remember, oils may continue to work on an emotional level for several days. So, be careful not to use them too frequently because release should be gentle and handled with ease and care.

The fifth chakra is centered in the hollow of your throat and it is your means of communicating with and ministering to the outside world.  The functioning of most upper organs - eyes, brain, ears, mouth, nose, thyroid gland, bronchial tubes - is regulated by this chakra.

When the throat chakra is healthy in size, unobstructed and working well, all your senses are sharp.  Your sincerity is obvious to those around you.  You say exactly what you mean, and what you say is well-received.  Your phrasing and tone are such that people are seldom put off or threatened or hurt by your words.  You don't subvert your own intention in order to be polite, but neither do you inflict careless verbal injury.   Clairaudience, the intuitive aptitude for hearing astral voices and music is the psychic power that arises from the unencumbered activity of the throat chakra.

On the contrary, if you ignore what your senses take in, if you are apt to feel mortified over what you just said, if you have trouble asserting yourself verbally and articulating what you mean, if there's a big discrepancy between what you say and what you do, or if you tend to indulge in rumor, innuendo, or idle chit chat,  it's the fifth chakra that needs attention.  Another common pattern of fifth-chakra misuse is that of the authoritarian who is rigid of opinion, stiff-necked, and tight-lipped in order to control the output of the mouth.  As you work on restoring balance, strength and resilience to the fifth chakra, it helps enormously to suspend critical judgments and glimpse the spark of Divinity in each person and in each facet of nature.  This includes letting go of prejudices and vengeful schemes and refraining from loose, manipulative talk.

In most cases, your fifth closes down because you won't speak up.  You don't trust the world with what you have to express, and you don't trust yourself to go ahead and say it.  If such is the situation, strengthen your fifth by finding new outlets for your expressive energy.  Let the radiance of your heart rise up and penetrate your throat.  Or try humming so that the sound resonates throughout your neck.

Sound is the key to opening the fifth chakra.  Singing your children to sleep, chanting in a circle, and singing aloud are positive expressions of the primal scream.  When your fifth is an open conduit, your speaking voice is clear and bell-like, without insinuating overtones.  It conveys an appealing richness, and if you're musically inclined your abilities are vastly sharpened.

Like the first and fourth chakras, the second and fifth are paired up - more noticeably so in women and children.  Owing to a fear of rejection, you may restrain yourself from speaking freely.  In an effort to win acceptance, you may be heedlessly verbose and given to wild statements.

Considering that the fifth chakra channels directly to every sense but touch, one of its main purposes is to keep you involved in the sensory world.  Meanwhile, your emotional life and sense of touch are nourished by the second chakra.  In general, numbness is a two-level weakness that affects both the second and the fifth.  When people shut off their hearing, fog their vision, or develop speech problems, it's often because they're allowing a pattern of emotional deadening to ride up from the sacral center to the throat center.

The third chakra also pairs with the fifth, particularly in men.  When a man's self-worth is inadequate, he lacks the "guts" to speak his mind.  People who charge into a room or throw their weight around conversationally are showing third-fifth excess.  Verbal battering is an extreme version of this. 

The fifth pairs, in turn, with the seventh (crown chakra).  In fact, good functioning of the fifth is crucial to the opening of the seventh.  It's the first step on the path to clarity:  the capacity to see through your pretensions, ambitions, errors and miseries by means of regular self-examination.  With clarity, you have the advantage of common sense, whether or not you happen to be talented in other ways.  You don't waste your energy on mythical monsters in the closet of your own making.

Unfortunately, the fifth can also be the center from which you spin worry, which is the opposite of clarity.  Worry stems from deluded sense perceptions, fed by second-chakra insecurity.  Most worries dissolve in the light of self-knowledge and self-acceptance, aided by the self-assurance that results from the day-to-day discipline of working toward these goals.  When you find yourself worrying about someone else, look to see what aspect of yourself might be at the root of your anxiety.

If you are agitated within, it's next to impossible to receive a precise reading of any message from your intuition or even the best psychic.  Even straight, loud, talking can't get through to your conscious mind.  The clarity of an open fifth chakra is what gives you an ear for inner wisdom and understanding.
