Visualize your taste buds and a thing you love to eat; maybe a fresh fruit amid the blue skies. Visualize it entering your mouth, and you tasting it. Open your mouth with each inhale and take in pure turquoise light. With each exhale visualize the light loosening and releasing any blockages in your throat. Feel you confidence to speak your mind as it comes into bloom.Aromatherapy
