Seed Syllable Mantra for Removing Blockages between the Root and the Throat

Pronounced GLAH-OOM, the seed syllable mantra GLAUM is used for removing blockages between the root chakra and the throat chakra.

This mantra is toned to a drone created with tuning forks and voice with the pitches of C and G.

GLAUM Toned with Drone

Tips for chanting:

Start at a comfortable pitch for you. To find this place, put your hand on your chest. If you can feel a tone buzzing comfortably in your chest without any strain anywhere - this is likely a great starting point!
You can play around with moving the pitch a touch lower if you like so you can feel the tone buzz more noticeably in the lower chakras. This is not necessary though. It’s most important to make it comfortable.
Make sure to sound through the AH, OH, and OO, bringing awareness to the heart, solar plexus and sacral chakras as you do so. It clears and purifies these channels.
Sounding the through the GL and ‘M’ will also help break up any stuck energy in the throat, and vibrate the cranium at the end which is nourishing.
You may chant this slowly (one repetition per outbreath), or more quickly (multiple repetitions per outbreath).
Visualize the channel between the root, sacral, solar plexus, heart and throat centers running clear.
