Your throat chakra is responsible for your self-expression, your ability to manifest love through creativity, and to connect the unconnectable.
It is the center of your “authentic voice.”
I would like to share with you one of the exercises from the training «7 Keys of Mindfulness» for activating the throat chakra using mantras.
In this case, it is the mantra of **Joy**. Specifically, as performed by Gaiavata with hand movements.

The mantra of Joy is a practice for activating the throat chakra, which is responsible for self-expression, creativity, and the manifestation of love. It is used within the framework of the “7 Keys of Mindfulness” training and helps the practitioner uncover their “authentic voice.”
The mantra is chanted while seated. Hands begin on the knees with palms facing down. On “Om tare” – the right palm turns upward, on “Tu tare” – the left palm turns upward, on “Tu re” – the right hand is parallel to the heart with the palm facing down, on “So ha” – the left hand is parallel to the stomach with the palm facing up. Then both palms join at the solar plexus, rise above the head, cross onto the shoulders, and return to the starting position.
It is recommended to chant the mantra of Joy daily for a minimum of 10 minutes. During the practice, it is important to focus attention on the throat center and write down your sensations to track your progress.
