Throat Chakra Smoothie 5/25/2022
In this great spiritual awakening that everyone is currently experiencing, it is of the utmost importance for us to share the knowledge that we are all starting to remember. This can be especially challenging since many of us have a blocked throat chakra. If you are struggling with this issue I have a powerful Throat Chakra Smoothie recipe that I will share with all of you in this article. After drinking this smoothie you will be able to speak your truth.
To begin the secret to making one of the most powerful throat chakra smoothies is by utilizing one of the strongest phenomena in this universe. This phenomena is the placebo effect. Many people are aware that this effect happens, but they never use it in their everyday lives. For this smoothie we will most certainly be taking advantage of it. It would appear the placebo effect has different levels of strength. Based on a research study called, Components of placebo effect: randomized controlled trial in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. In this study 262 people who had irritable bowel syndrome were placed in 3 groups. The first group simply had their bowel syndrome observed over the course of the study. The second group every so often would visit a doctor who would prescribe them a fake acupuncture session, a session where fake needles were used, which in theory should have no effect on bowel syndrome. The third group was similar to the second, but had much more encouraging interactions with the doctor. The second and third group, but especially the third group, had significant relief from irritable bowel syndrome.
It would seem that the more steps done to help the patient the more the patient believed they were being helped. This intern managed to help their irritable bowel syndrome more. For this smoothie recipe we will include many additional steps that most likely aren’t in your everyday smoothie, to increase your placebo effect, and thus more effectively heal your throat chakra.
The energy vibrating in your throat has a wavelength of the color blue, which is why blue is commonly associated with the throat chakra. Many of the ingredients used will be blue, and that way when it turns into energy in the body it will go to the throat. The physical body, and the spiritual body are two sides of the same coin. If your physical body is unhealthy then your spiritual body will be unhealthy and vice versa. So foods that help your physical throat will help your spiritual throat, your throat chakra. For most ingredients the better the quality, such as freshness, the greater effect it will have on the throat.
Ingredients
Fresh Blueberries: Blueberries contain omega 3’s, anti-inflammatories which can help reduce neck pain. Blueberries have astringent tannins that help a sore throat. Overall they keep your throat hydrated and protected, which will help the chakra.
Blue Spirulina: Blue spirulina is an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-angiogenic agent. Antioxidants help prevent your cells against free radicals. While the other properties help in preventing cancer. It reduces bad LDL cholesterol while raising good HDL cholesterol. In a study called Anti-Cancer effects of blue-green alga Spirulina platensis 52 people were given one gram of blue spirulina a day, had LDL cholesterol decreased by 10.1%.
According to a new study utility of spirulina as protein source and immunobooster in covid period. Spirulina has the highest amount of protein per gram than any other substance. It can enhance the body’s ability to make new blood cells, bone marrow, and stem cells. It was also concluded it can help fight itchy throats due to allergies.
Overall Blue spirulina is omnipotent, and you should most certainly include it in your smoothie.
Honey: Honey is rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties, antimicrobial capacity, anticancer activity, anticancer activity, antiviral activity, antifungal properties, and antidiabetic properties.
So overall it can help with almost any illness. In a study called honey for acute cough in children. The study pointed to showing that honey can relieve cough symptoms better than a placebo, and diphenhydramine. However the results were not statistically significant. What was statistically significant was coughing suppression in each one.
Blackberries: Black Berries contain a lot of vitamin C, K, and E. As well as anthocyanins which reduce body inflammation, protect brain health, regulate blood pressure, and enhance cognitive function. Blackberries like blueberries have astringent tannins that are helpful for sore throats.
Blueberry yogurt: Many different options can be used for this. I prefer using greek yogurt since it is protein- rich, and usually contains less sugar than most other yogurts. Also in study called Dairy and Bone it was found that dairy yogurt is great for your bones due to calcium, protein and potassium, that are in far greater quantities than plant based yogurt.
The most important thing to watch out for is added sugar. Most yogurt has far too much sugar. Find one that is low. Also make sure the yogurt comes from organic and grass fed sources, instead of coming from industrial milk. There haven’t been too many studies on the benefits of plant based yogurts, but a plant based yogurt can be used as a supplement. Just make sure it doesn’t have too much sugar.
Plant based milk: Many different options can be used for this. I prefer to use unsweetened organic coconut milk. Just make sure when you purchase a plant based milk it is low in sugar similar to that of yogurt. If you do decide to use dairy milk make sure it is farm feed, and organic not from factory farms. I prefer not to consume a lot of dairy since our ability to consume dairy is a fairly new evolutionary ability. For example if you live in areas where dairy wasn’t a relevant part of your diet like west africa, and china many are lactose intolerant. Even most people that aren’t lactose intolerant develop lactose intolerance starting at age 20. Right now the human race is not made to consume large amounts of dairy, and since I use a lot of milk in my smoothies I like to use plant based milk.
Plant based protein powder: I prefer to use plant based protein powder over whey protein powder, for similar reasons to why I use plant based milk. Also plant based protein powder was found to have the same ability to promote muscle thickness as whey based protein powder in a study called Pea proteins oral supplementation promotes muscle thickness gains during resistance training.
If you worked out the day you are making this, there is no reason to not add protein powder to make your muscles stronger. I would use vanilla flavored protein powder since it goes better with blueberries.
Oatmeal: This is a personal preference of mine. Oatmeal is super cheap, has a lot of calories, and is very healthy. I struggle with gaining weight so I always include oatmeal in my smoothies. It was found that oatmeal reduces total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations without affecting high density lipoprotein cholesterol or triglyceride concentrations in a study called State of the Art Reviews: The oatmeal-cholesterol connection: 10 Years Later.
Enchanting your smoothie
Now in order to maximize this smoothie to open up your throat chakra it’s time to add some additional steps, to increase the placebo effect. The best way to do this is to add a ritual to it. Add some of your own personal beliefs and faith into this smoothie. For example, if you believe that crystals hold power, add some lapis lazuli to your throat smoothie at the end. Leave the crystals in the smoothie for a couple of minutes, then remove it. Another example is if you believe that the moon holds power, leave some fruits you use in moonlight the night before. If you believe praying to be powerful then pray. The more things you can do the better, so you can come up with your own additional step that you believe would work then add it!
Something to invest in is an enchantment table/ alchemy table and create the smoothie on top of this table. I will have an article going in detail on how to make one. But essentially it is very similar to something you would see in a movie or game, just a little bit more tricked out for cooking. Witches have used alchemy tables to cast their spells, and brew potions for eons. When someone prays in front of an altar/shrine to God that altar/shrine is acting very similar to an alchemy table. So if you have an altar or shrine it can easily be turned into an enchantment table. An altar is a place of sacrifice and a power point to draw spiritual and supernatural strength (Genesis 8:20-21). By preparing your smoothie on the altar you can draw in energy from the supernatural and the table to use in your smoothie.
Use the power of words. In movies and games sorcerers always say words when producing a spell. This is not far off from what many religions do today. In Hindu and Buddhist religions they use mantras to help improve whatever they are doing. In Judaism, Christianity, and Islam they use words in prayer, and during baptisms, calling on the holy spirit. In a study called Effect of rosary prayer and yoga mantras on Autonomic Cardiovascular Rhythms: Comparative Study 23 healthy adults were required to say rhythmic formulas such as saying the rosary and yoga mantras to see if it can reinforce inherent cardiovascular rhymes and modify baroreflex sensitivity. There was significant evidence of enhancement in heart rate variability, and increase in baroreflex sensitivity. This is just evidence to show that when you say words arithmetically there is power there.
I like to pray a throat chakra prayer 3 times into my smoothie, then ask the holy spirit to allow this smoothie to purify my throat 6 times, and then chant the throat chakra mantra, HAM, 9 times. Watch out! You may find yourself being a priest or a yogi shortly after drinking this smoothie if you start going this route.
Next up you can purely meditate on the intention of the smoothie to heal/open up your throat chakra. In a recent study called effects of distant intention on water crystal formation a triple blind replication scientists placed stem cells in a media that contained water. One media had monks that were concentrating on the water to make the stem cells proliferate more. The other had no outside influence. The one that the monks concentrated on proliferated much more. Now you aren’t a monk, but the power of intention is real, it is demonstrated again, and again in science. The only difference is monks are able to tune out thoughts of doubt, and distracting thoughts from their head for a long period of time making it more effective for them. However if you understand how to meditate properly you can still produce a measurable effect. I like to meditate, and just simply picture the drink glowing blue, and what it will make my throat feel like, for 10 min, and yes 10 minutes straight.
With any of these things it’s best to have people help you, for example, a significant other. A significant other who helps prepare the smoothie with you will only amplify these effects, especially the meditation one. Lynne Mctaggart studies the power of group intentions, and finds when many people are all focusing on one intention that intention gets far more powerful. This has been demonstrated when many people will meditate on peace in certain places, and crime rates will drastically fall during the meditations. By having multiple people speak mantras, prayers, and perform rituals the effects will be greater.
Lastly when drinking the smoothie focus on the intention of it opening up your throat, feel the drink flow down your throat, and see if you can remember this feeling. Many of us when eating/ drinking think of other things. Doing this for the smoothie will be a waste, prepare yourself before drinking it to concentrate on the taste, and the experience. Make sure you can remember the taste and feel of it 5 min after drinking it.
Drink this smoothie a couple times a month, and I guarantee that your communication skills will skyrocket.
