Healing Powers of Humming

Do you like to sing?

I certainly do!

I have loved singing since I was a child.

You know how great you feel after listening, or singing along to your favorite song?

The instruments beautifully striking different emotions within.

And perhaps your favorite singer telling your story with their voice. It can change your mood in an instant.

Suddenly you feel more upbeat and hopeful, or more reflective and somber depending on the tune. Few things can touch and transform us as deeply as sound.

Sound healing has been practiced for thousands of years, in various ways, and has gained in popularity in recent years.

Whether you use singing, bowls, bells, or crystals it is well known that these sounds can stimulate relaxation and healing.

But do you know that you have the ability to heal and rebalance yourself with your own voice?!

One of my favorite ways, besides singing, to use my voice over the years is with Traditional Chinese Medicine healing sounds.

Each organ has a sound associated with it.

And when we make that particular sound it helps to release energies and rebalance that organ and meridian channel.

Here’s a brief overview of the organs and related sounds.

Liver - Shhhoo - Emotions: Kindness/anger

Heart - Haaa - Emotions: Love/hatred

Spleen - Whoo - Emotions: Trust/worry

Lungs - Ssssuhh - Emotions: Courage/grief

Kidneys - Chooo - Emotions: Gratitude/fear

Triple Warmer - Sheee - Emotions: Peace/panic

You may not be in a place where you can burst out into song.

Maybe you don’t have a bowl, bells or music available, or you don’t remember the Qi Gong sounds.

Use your own healing breath and hum whatever feels uplifting or soothing to you.

Humming is a simple yet powerful way to stimulate the vagus nerve and reduce stress quickly.

Allow the vibrations of your voice to soothe and harmonize you no matter where you are or what’s going on around you.

It doesn’t have to be loud and draw attention to you, but even lightly humming is very effective.
