When I'm tired I'm especially prone. I appreciate so much you keeping me aware Judy and for your educational leadership in the art of the voice!

Very interesting indeed… 'blocked throat chakra'. I'm allergic to it!!
My throat also constricts when I hear others speaking with vocal fry… it helps me diagnose this vocal issue (oh what I do for my clients, hehehe)

Thought I'd share this:
My grandmother has the worst vocal fry I've ever heard. In fact, my throat constricts just listening to her strain at the end of each and every sentence of more than 5 words.

In terms of energy in the body- what many call the throat chakra- this "choking off by choice" represents repression, suppression and the fear of expressing one's self. Some people refer to it as a blocked throat chakra. I'm not surprised that its growing amongst women in a world where the constraints are deceptively looser, but are actually tighter due to massive judgements that people lay on each other in so many ways.

The internet hampers self-expression for many, ironically enough.
