This powerful set focuses on the throat or Vishuddha or the throat chakra. It will physically work the thyroid, neck and shoulders creating ease and releasing tension, as well as your personal expression and communication. The throat is often called our truth centre and this practice can create a beautiful release for those who have not been able to fully express themselves.

Hi Marlene, I really love your all classes and your instruction. I have practiced them many times. I know I need them for myself. The problem that I get stuck is sitting posture. I think when we do pranayama, we need a strong, stability and comfortable posture but I have never got it. I feel compress at lower back, front of body open( I think lower ribcage) open, a little tension at neck shoulder. My head tends to lean back. I also follow your talking, adjust my position but don't fell good at all. I feel my body stiff when I adjust. Please, tell me your experience. You really inspire me.
Namaste.

Hi Thuy, thank you for your comments. Are you sitting to close to the edge of your meditation pillow? In that case, maybe move a little more to the center, and if you need, place a blanket or blocks under the legs. That should help with strain in the neck, shoulders and lower back. Also, try hero pose, http://www.yogajournal.com/pose/hero-pose/ maybe with props like shown in the picture. This is for most people and easy way to maintain a strong back. Let me know if this helps! <3 Marlene

Thank you Marlene! This was quite emotional for me, but with calm pace I was able to just follow what's happening. Beautiful meditation too. <3
Marlene13.06.2016
Hi Helena, beautiful to hear! It seems a good idea to revisit this practice a couple of times and see what it does for you. <3
Gesine01.05.2016
Thank you very much, Marlene! I was very delighted today for being able to to this practice.
It is very difficult for me to feel safe enough to express my truth, so I felt very anxious throughout the set ,especially during the mantra-movement-meditation because I felt somehow threatened. But I will try to do this set for a longer period of time to see if anything changes.
Marlene04.05.2016
Hi Gesine,
Yes sometimes our body has set up a system that is used to being that way for a long time. When you start shaking that system, it feels like a threat sometimes. Just keep going bravely and remind yourself that outdated patterns no longer serve you and it's time to 'download' a newer version for your internal 'software'. Hope this helps <3

After a bicycle ride with a lot of hills yesterday, I woke up with very tense, strained muscles in my neck and shoulders. The weekly round up newsletter was in my email, and this class was linked through a list of neck/shoulder classes. Not only did my physical strain find release, but this practice provided a lovely release of energy, leaving me feeling more grounded overall and ready to move into my work day. Thank you!

Ooohhhh! Marlene ☺️
I do love the way you teach and WHAT you teach, the lessons you offer us.
I often restrict my "voice/truth" so that others feel comfortable - less so nowadays - and this practice just released a locked facet joint - that became restricted yesterday - all through the movement and expression of sound.
?❤️?❤️

Hi Marlene
Beautiful practise! Thank you so much. Anita

Thank you Anita! <3
Melinda06.05.2016
This was good! I carry tension in my throat and I found that I had to work hard to keep that area relaxed during this class. No doubt this may indicate a need to practice this more!
Namaste.
Marlene11.05.2016
Hi Melinda, yes sounds like it. It would be great if you could do this class a couple of times and see how it serves you. ❤️
Kristi09.06.2016
What a gorgeous class! Thank you. I can't wait to do another of your classes tomorrow morning.
Marlene13.06.2016
<3 Thank you Kristi!
Ulrike24.07.2016
Wonderful class, I tend quarrel with people perhaps this practice will help me to stay focused and calm and just speak my truth. Thank you Marlene, love your classes
Marlene26.07.2016
Hi Ulrike, see how it goes :) Love to hear from you! <3 Marlene

Thank you Marlene.
I have a thyroid condition and I've been trying for some time now to heal it naturally. Sometimes I have hope, sometimes it's difficult. Actually, I've found yoga in my quest to understand what was happening in my body :) I've found and discovered a lot and am still researching. I often visualize some kind of healing blue light entering my throat area.
I espacially loved the final movement forward-back-left-right. I make a commitment now to incorporate it as often as I can. "Truth is my name" is truly beautiful. I'll repeat that too.
Thank you so much.
Fra16.06.2016
Dear Marlene, thank you for your words :) I also wanted to tell you that I appreciate the video you did on Gratitude in tough times, and your explanation on the Neutralization of the negative energy of a situation. It's been helpful to me.
I've just come home after my yoga class and my intention this time was to stay with what was, just observing, no judgment. I've been thinking about me labeling something 'good' or 'bad' and it's just so exhausting. If something I normally label as 'negative' or 'bad' is there or comes up (like anger) I try now to Neutralize its negative energy and adopt something like, 'hey, you are here, I observe you, I don't judge you' The next step, I guess, will be, 'I make space for you, I allow you, I accept you'
Thank you so much, a big hug to you with Gratitude!
Marlene13.06.2016
Dearest Fra, I know how challenging it can be when you have a health condition. I have found when you work on it, without emotional pressure of the outcome, miracles can happen. Let me know how you get on! sending love and healing thoughts! <3
Judit28.11.2016
This has been so relaxing!! I absolutely lived this practice. One thing I find confusing though is that the little finger corresponds to Mercury. According to my fantastic book on mudras by Swami Sarananda, the throat chakra is the middle finger. I looked it up and in palmistry the little finger is indeed Mercury. Still it would be great if there was any agreement between the different ideologies. :)
Marlene29.11.2016
I know :) it does get confusing. I do tend to just feel what resonates with me most. I guess that is the only thing we can do for ourselves. <3

Cecilia04.05.2016
Thank you, Matlene. I have been looking forward to this practice and was truly delighted with it. Your voice is very soothing and I hope to gain a clearing of my throat chakra from it
Marlene04.05.2016
Yay! Let me know how you get on Cecilia! <3
Rachael20.10.2016
Lovely...thank you! My shoulders love this class also.
Marlene25.10.2016
Yes, also part of the same energetic center :)
Anjali28.01.2019
Dear Marlene,
I was wondering if you would have any video that could help with blocked throat chakra along with tight neck muscles and stiff shoulders due to decades of being in fear of not being heard and understood.
Ruth27.05.2016
That was tailor made, I have a mediation meeting today which I need to speak my truth at! Thank you, I will return to this video when facing similar. So so helpful thank you. I could feel the tension & sadness leaving my throat chakra as the class evolved. Ruth
Marlene27.05.2016
Glad to hear it Ruth! And good luck with your meeting! <3
Mary18.08.2017
Thank you Marlene for this wonderful class. I really enjoyed it
Miriam05.05.2016
Thank you Marlene for another subtly powerful practice.
Trina10.01.2017
Vers interesting session, Marlene. Thank you so much. I will definitely be coming back to it, maybe even practice every day for a period. I suffer from cervical spondylosis located around 6th neck vertebra (but with chronic strong pains in the right shoulder and arm) and should therefore not look up/lean the head back so I did the excercises without those movement but it still worked fine and I feel a lot more freedom and warmth in the shoulder and neck area. I have also suffered from many years of not listening to myself and not being able to feel or recognize my truth, so thank you so much for sharing this practice that I believe will help me on my path to balance in this area and speak and be my truth in the world. Namaste!
Marlene02.02.2017
Hi Trina, thank you for sharing that! Yes, do be careful with your neck and find suitable adaptations for your body. I am very happy you recognise all of the energetic connections to those places in the body. Let me know how you get on! <3
Deborah19.02.2017
The more of your classes I do, the more I enjoy them! I especially loved the mantra today and it's meaning, it resonated so well for me. Your kundalini classes work on so many levels and they always surprise and delight. Thank you so much, they are so much appreciated! Namaste and have a gorgeous day.
Marlene20.02.2017
Hi Deborah! That is such a joy to hear, thank you! The practice is super special, that's why I am in love with it too : )
Namaste! <3

Patricia04.07.2018
I really like the space this practice creates in the whole region of the throat chakra. It goes to areas that are often missed in my regular practice. It makes a noticeable difference. Thank you.
Pascale27.11.2023
beautiful session! really feel easing into the whole area and my sore right shoulder neck area. Thank you! Always love your classes and your teaching style.
