One of the easiest ways to add crystals to your every day is through home decor. There are beautiful large specimens and other accessories you can place through your home.

Chakra Bracelet from Energy Muse
Another simple way to have crystals in your everyday life is to wear crystal jewelry.
My go-to piece of jewelry is my Chakra Healing Bracelet from Energy Muse. I really don’t feel like myself when I leave it at home, which isn’t often! As we mentioned in previous installments, crystal jewelry has been worn for thousands of years. It’s a practical way to have crystals with you at all times.
The Chakra Bracelet has 21 healing crystals which relate to each of your 7 Chakras. We will discuss each of these stones throughout this series.
In this installment, we will delve into the 5th Chakra, its properties and the crystals used to help clear and keep it balanced. As shown above, crystal jewelry will be the primary method we will use to balance your chakras, let’s take a look at the wonderful array of Throat Chakra crystals.
Part 5: THE THROAT CHAKRA
The 5th Chakra is the Throat Chakra, and it is the connection of our Hearts to our minds, in other words, the gateway to reach our higher consciousness.
The Throat Chakras is associated with communication, freedom of expression and its color is blue. Eat blue fruits and vegetables to soothe your Throat Chakra. I make a smoothie using my Arbonne Chocolate Protein Shake with Almond Milk, Chia, and Hemp seeds. I add Blueberries every morning to start my day. Usually, this shake combo keeps me full well past lunch!
Verbalizing emotion is not everyone’s strong suit. Anger comes out through our voice. When this happens it means our throat Chakra needs work, there is too much energy blocked in this area. I can vouch I can feel the tightness. I try to meditate with my blue crystals and work out my blockages. For the most part, this method of using crystal jewelry and crystals in meditation works very well for me.
HEALTH ISSUE ASSOCIATED WITH THE THROAT CHAKRA
Problems with your ears, throat, nose and respiratory problems can arise with blockages in this area. Also, people can be on the other end of the spectrum too and be shy, fearful and afraid to speak up.
You can also be prone to shut down communication with others if you can’t express your inner feelings. Depression is common among those with blockages in their Throat Chakra.
Over time it has become common practice for people to visit therapists and psychologists to heal emotional issues. These sessions can help you figure out who you are and what you are meant to pursue in life. We need to work out our blockages in a verbal way, and it’s wonderful we have so many options to find an ear to listen. In short, when you talk through your problems and maybe have a cry, you release negative energy, and it makes you feel better.
The endocrine gland associated with the Throat is the Thyroid, and it’s an important gland because it controls our metabolism. It also helps the para thyroids to maintain healthy bones, nerves, and muscles. It’s vital to our overall health to balance and clear this Chakra. Physically, emotionally and mentally, this Chakra is the key to what lies between our body and our spirit. Given these points, let’s take a look at crystals we can use to heal our Throat Chakra.
THROAT CHAKRA CRYSTALSSODALITE FOR YOUR THROAT CHAKRA
You can use the crystal Sodalite to heal your Throat Chakra. It is one of my favorite healing crystals to use because it can calm my mind. For someone who is easily distracted, it’s great to link my purpose with my mind and body.
Sodalite can instill truth and makes it possible for you to stand up for yourself and your beliefs. This stone helps you verbalize your feelings. For the most part, this stone is ideal for tranquility and peace, and it can also calm panic attacks.
Known to boost your metabolism. Keep Sodalite around to help your weight management, so the next time your friends see you they will say “What’s your secret?”
BLUE APATITE FOR YOUR THROAT CHAKRA
Blue Apatite enhances group communication and public speaking. It opens the Throat Chakra and aids in self-expression on all levels.
Apatite has inspirational properties and is a stone of manifestation. It also aids self-expression, openness and social ease. This crystal helps the Thyroid as it regulates underacting and overacting issues. Furthermore, it can heal your heart and emotional distress. Keep this crystal close, I recommend a necklace like the one below.
ANGELITE FOR YOUR THROAT CHAKRA
Angelite unblocks energetic pathways and is known to connect you to the spiritual realm. It’s the “Stone of awareness” and heightens your attunement and perception of other realms.
This crystal balances your thyroid and is useful for weight control. Notice the theme of weight control and metabolism. Altogether, these blue stones are a must in everyone’s gym bag. Use an affirmation of “I live a healthy lifestyle and love to move my body!”
When you wear Angelite, you will always speak your truth but with compassion and acceptance of what can’t be changed. I find it a very soothing stone, it helps you let go of your pain and find peace. In essence, this stone will make you feel calm and surrounded by love.
AMAZONITE FOR YOUR THROAT CHAKRA
Amazonite is such a beautiful stone, there are great options for jewelry using this stone as it opens the Throat Chakra and is helpful to enhance loving communication. Equally, it dispels negative energy and is extremely protective against microwave and other harmful electromagnetic emanations.
Place between you and your cell phone, I recommend earrings.
Amazonite soothes emotional trauma and helps you to see both sides of a problem. Not to mention, it’s a perfect stone to wear to work as it aids in group environments.
DUMORTIERITE FOR YOUR THROAT CHAKRA
Dumortierite opens you up to kindness, optimism and shows you how to be confident in yourself. Wear this crystal, and you will feel an unshakable self-confidence. Likewise, it will keep you young at heart, and give you a positive outlook on life.
With Dumortierite around you take control of your purpose, become focused, organized and it guides you to overcome any obstacles productively. After all, we can all use more dive and abundance in our lives.
If you have destructive or compulsive behavior, Dumortierite will replace it with positive life changes. In my case, I choose a healthy lifestyle and to focus on my business. Generally speaking, I find wearing my Chakra bracelet, and any other crystal jewelry keeps me emotionally balanced.
In summary, when you wear Throat Chakra crystals you will verbalize your emotions positively. Instead of yelling, you may be more rational, concise and calm. Not to mention, they have an added benefit of helping with metabolism and weight management. How could you go wrong with wearing these stones?
