The Six Healing Sounds
Sound
vibration is an important element in most Taoist healing techniques. At our
Taoist Ki Wellness Center in Harlem, sound vibrations play an important role in
both Ki Training and Ki Treatment. Part of the first training exercise during
our Wednesday night Ki Training program is learning a special chant that clears
the mind and balances the body and spirit.
In Ki
Treatments the Ki Master will use the liver sound SHHHHHH, this sound benefits
the Master as well as the person being treated. It allows the master to
maintain focus and intent; it also helps the master to transform negative
energy into positive energy. The sound helps the person being treated to relax and
decrease stressful illusionary thoughts.
Taoist
master and author Mantak Chia, writes about the six healing sounds in his
famous book Chi Nei Tsang (Internal Organs Chi Massage). Each sound
corresponds with a vital organ. As mentioned above the SHHHHH sound is used to improve
the function of the Liver and Gall Bladder. The SSSSSSS sound is used to
improve the Lungs and Large Intestine.
The WOOOOO
sound is made to improve the function of the Kidneys and Bladder. The HAWWWWW
sound is made to improve the function of the Heart and Small Intestine. The
WHOOOO sound is made to improve the function of the Spleen. With practice this
sound can also be used to eliminate indigestion, nausea and diarrhea.
The HEEEEEE
sound is the sound that brings balance to the Triple Warmer. Many are not
familiar with the Triple Warmer which is the three energy centers of the body.
The upper section (brain, heart, and lungs) is hot; the middle section (liver,
kidneys, stomach, pancreas, and spleen) is warm; and the lower section (large
and small intestines, bladder, and sexual organs) is cool. When the three
temperatures are balanced the immune system is reinforced to combat illness.
Master Chia
describes the positions one must take when making the six sounds in easy to
follow steps along with other vital organ massage techniques that can be very
useful for self-healing. You can also call my direct line at 646 329-6727 to
