To anyone who
studies science or physics, you're probably familiar with
the concept of Brownian motion. What is Brownian motion?
Brownian motion is the random movement of particles suspended
in a liquid or gas or the mathematical model used to describe
such random movements, often called a particle theory.
Traditionally the botanist Robert Brown is regarded as
the discoverer of Brownian motion in 1827. It is believed
that Brown was studying pollen particles floating in water
under the microscope. He then observed minute particles
within the vacuoles of the pollen grains executing a jittery
motion.
However it was Einstein in a paper submitted in 1905 that
first brought the solution to the attention of physicists.
He presented it as a way to indirectly confirm the existence
of atoms and molecules.
Einstein predicted that the random motions of molecules
in a liquid impacting on larger suspended particles would
result in irregular, random motions of the particles,
which could be directly observed under a microscope. The
predicted motion corresponded precisely with the puzzling
Brownian motion. From this motion Einstein accurately
determined the dimensions of the hypothetical molecules
which were theorized to exist but as yet unproven.
So what does this have to do with healing and sound..
everything. In Chinese medicine there are so many fantastic
methods to heal and one of these ancient methods of healing
is called "The Six Healing sounds" or "The
Six Syllable Secret" among others.
What they discovered was that no matter what language
a person spoke, when they had any particular illness they
all made the same sounds. Sounds such as moaning or whining
for example that were the same or very similar depending
upon which organs were involved in the illness.
For example, if a person had a problem that was determined
to be in their kidneys, they were often hunched over,
had shallow breathing and made a characteristic "Wooooooooo"
sound. This was the case no matter what language they
spoke. Since the lower back is the region of the body
associated with the kidneys, this is also another simple
visual cue that such a person has a serious energy imbalance
in that particular organ. Chinese doctors use these visual
cues and many others such as sound, skin color and tongue
appearance, the eyes, voice, smell of the persons skin
and many others to determine the location, severity and
type of illness the person has.
This is akin to how everyone in the world all makes the
same "ha ha ha" sound when we laugh regardless
of the language that we speak. Because humor generates
a strong "E-motional" response in the body and
mind which of a "fire" nature. E-motions are
not just feelings but they are "Energy In Motion".
Chi is flowing more powerfully through the various meridians
when you laugh. This fire energy needs to be expelled
from the body and the body does this by making a "ha
ha ha" sound. The heart is the fire organ of the
body and it so happens that laughing is a fire sound.
The sound Ha is actually one of the many sounds discovered
to purge the heart of excess fire chi. This is why we
laugh when something strikes us as funny.
Each of the five major vital (Yin) organs of the body
of which the heart is one of them has it's own characteristic
sound associated with it. The five vital yin organs are
the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys and spleen. There is
actually another sound which corresponds to all the organs
and is a sixth sound completing the set. Whenever we breathe
out while gently making one of these six sounds were purging
that organ system of excess fire energy. This has a strong
calming and powerful cleansing effect on the organ which
actually helps to detoxify and strengthen it.
These techniques and sounds alone have been known to cure
many serious diseases. There was even a man who had terminal
heart disease yet laughed himself to a cure by watching
old "Three stooge" reruns constantly. The continuous
laughing purged out the excess fire chi from the heart
and body, thus alleviating his heart disease by balancing
out the chi of the heart.
This can be true for any and all of the sounds associated
with each of the five major yin organs. If there is any
weakness or excess fire energy in these organs, making
these sounds will help to purge the organ itself, as well
as it's related yang organ of excess fire energy. Since
most diseases in the west are diseases of excess fire
energy due to stress, poor diet, foods loaded with chemicals
and overworking the body, this can truly be life changing
and life saving information.
There are also various movements and posture that go along
with these sounds and breathing that can make them even
more effective, but the sounds for each organ are a good
way to start and to begin gaining the great benefits from
these techniques.
These sounds are also known as "Vibratory Breathing"
techniques. Since all matter vibrates as specific frequencies
we can take advantage of this by using these six sounds
to purge the various organs of excess energies that are
often a main cause of discomfort and even serious illness.
Sounds and vibrations are very powerful phenomena in nature
and they are all around us. Whether they're in the forms
of electromagnetic waves such as wireless radio and tv
signals or audible sounds, vibrations and resonance waves
are everywhere and in fact critical to life itself.
It's know that plants grow larger and healthier, cows
give sweeter and more nutritious milk and people often
feel better when soft relaxing music is played as opposed
to hard, loud less rhythmic music. Since the earth's magnetic
field vibrates at a frequency of between 6-8 hertz and
is in fact the very frequency of all life, it makes sense
that music which is closer to this frequency of life would
also be beneficial, while other frequencies would be detrimental.
This is the basis behind the six healing sounds that the
Chinese have discovered millennia ago and been using since.
They knew that by making these common sounds that sick
people make they could help purge the body of the excess
energies that were causing illness. This along with herbs,
acupuncture, breathing and other therapies they would
speed up this purging process and boost immunity and restore
harmony to the system.
The
Lung Sound
TThe first sound
that we're going to cover is the lung sound. The lung
sound is almost akin to a snake but has nothing to do
with that creature.
To make the sound, start by taking a deep breath, then
with a slow exhalation you make the sound
"SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS"…
again similar to a snake while exhaling about 75% of the
air in your lungs. As you inhale imagine energy coming
back into the lungs to recharge them and then exhale again
while making the "SSSS" sound.
The sound does not need to be loud and you exhalation
should be gentle and calm. The lungs house the negative
emotions of grief, sadness and sorrow and the positive
emotions of righteousness, surrender, letting go, emptiness
and courage.
Grief is a well known association with the lungs. This
is one reason that people who are under tremendous grief
often get illnesses associated with the lungs. Recently,
Dana Reeve, wife of Superman actor Christopher Reeve was
diagnosed with lung cancer and died only 18 months after
her husband. Superman actor Christopher Reeve died due
to his injuries associated with his horse riding accident
about ten years earlier. Despite her never having smoked
and being in overall good health, she still developed
lung cancer. Her love and dedication to her husband are
well known so obviously his loss caused her tremendous
grief. This weakened the lung chi protecting that organ
and left them vulnerable to cell mutations where eventually
cancer developed.
The lung sound can also be used if you're very sleepy
and tired as it will help purge the stagnant lung chi
from the system and help to keep you awake if you're driving
or anything else where you need to stay awake.
Practicing this sound in the morning can also help to
clear the mind and help you to wake up faster. It takes
the grogginess away which is often present due to stagnant
energy in the lungs due to a nighttime of shallow breathing
as we sleep.
These sounds are very powerful additions that everyone
can and should add to their health regimen. Making these
sounds on a daily basis can go a long way to keeping your
organs healthy, even eliminating diseases, preventing
them from coming back and achieving longevity.
These sounds have many practical and daily applications
such as helping with indigestion for example. The spleen/stomach
sound helps to purge excess fire of the body that occur
during digestion and can help alleviate or cure indigestion
and acid reflux.
There are sounds to cool your body down in the summer,
warm you up in the winter and many other such applications.It`s
best not to practice these sounds more than six times
in a row when doing the breathing method alone. Anymore
than six times can purge too much energy overall from
the lungs or any other organ and can have the opposite
effect.
If you have a lot of fire energy in the lungs, then you
may notice your skin becoming red, almost as though you
have a slight sunburn. This is proof that the sound and
breathing is in fact purging the body of fire energy.
If you have any serious existing lung condition, do this
gently perhaps only two or three times but of course always
consult your doctor first.
