The Six Healing Sounds

The Six Healing Sounds, also known as Liu Zi Jue, is a Taoist practice involving specific breathing techniques and sounds to promote organ health and emotional balance. Each sound is associated with a particular organ and an associated emotion. 

The Six Sounds and Their Associations:

Lungs: The sound "sssss" is associated with the lungs and the emotion of grief or sadness.

Kidneys: The sound "chooo" is associated with the kidneys and the emotion of fear.

Liver: The sound "shhhhhh" is associated with the liver and the emotion of anger.

Heart: The sound "haaaaaw" is associated with the heart and the emotion of hate or love.

Spleen: The sound "whooooo" is associated with the spleen and the emotion of worry or anxiety.

Triple Warmer: The sound "heeee" is associated with the Triple Warmer and promotes overall balance. 

How the Practice Works:

The practice involves inhaling deeply and visualizing the corresponding organ and element, then exhaling while making the specific sound to release the associated emotion. This is often done in conjunction with visualization and movement, as in qigong.
