Vocal Healing is a method of opening the seven chakras with deep breathing techniques and toning. Chakra is the Sanskrit word for moving wheel - the chakras are like spinning energy centres along the spinal column through which our "life-force" manifests. These centres can be damaged or blocked through stress or inner conflict depending on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual activity in your life.

Vocal Healing is a simple method which can be integrated into the well-being of our daily lives through breath and vowel sounds. This is not a specialized activity for the enlightened few, it is a very accessible method for anyone wanting to expand the amount of energy that is available to them. In tuning in to subtle energies through your voice, you will discover a deep sense of well-being and relaxation as you become more familiar with the effects of opening up your chakras.  (Repeat each breathing exercise 4 times and each sound 3 times.)

 

CHAKRA  EXERCISES

These illustrations of the chakras are as seen from the inner sight through the spiritual eye; also known as the third eye. They are examples of the chakras in their perfect state. Through Yogic practices the devotee clears the chakras; also known as the gates; and experiences the awakening of the Shakti Kundalini energies. The Guru assists the devotee in progressing along this path to complete enlightenment and oneness with God.

BASE  ROOT  CHAKRA

Sink your energy down through your feet like spiral roots, deep down into the earth until you can imagine the molten fiery core burning as a primal energy source. Breathe in a stream of fire, up through your roots, into your feet, up your legs into your root chakra. As you breathe in through a small opening in your mouth for 8, pull in your root chakra muscles, hold the breath for 4 while holding the muscles tight, then breathe out through the mouth for 8, releasing the muscles. 

Make the sound of OOO.
Key Note G

SEAT  OF  THE  SOUL  CHAKRA

Put your hands over your abdomen, either in a cup shape or making a circle with your hands, imagine pulling in a stream of life-force (chi or prana) as you breathe in, forming into an expansive golden ball of light in your centre, hold the breath feeling the light get stronger, then breathe out and feel the light spread to every cell in your body. In through the nose for 8, hold for 4, out through your mouth for 16. 

Make the sound of OH.
Key Note A

SOLAR  PLEXUS  CHAKRA


Imagine you are breathing in a stream of beautiful clear energy, fresh and new, hold and tense your stomach muscles while gathering in all the sticky emotional patterns (like a fisherman throwing out a net), then breathe out all the stagnation and tension from the bottom of your lungs on the out-breath. In through the mouth for 4 (sucking in), hold for 2 and tense, out forcefully through the mouth for 6. 

Make the sound of AW.
Key Note B

HEART  CHAKRA

Extend your arms out wide each side of you in a gesture of complete trust, breathe in unconditional love into your heart bringing your hands in over your chest. Hold this position feeling the nourishment and healing, then open up your arms again on the out-breath, releasing old pain, hurt and fear, releasing out through the fingertips. In through the nose for 8, hold for 4, out through the mouth for 8. 

Make the sound of AH.
Key Note C

SECRET  CHAMBER  OF  THE  HEART

Bring your focus to the deepest center of you heart and visualize the white fire core of the three fold flame. This is the altar of your heart where the action of alchemy unfolds as forgiveness, love, and expanding light. Visualize white light expanding in the white fire core and feeding the pink, yellow, and blue flames for expansion. Practice the meditation technique Hong Sau". Let the breath flow naturally. While breathing in, mentally think of the mantra "Hong" and while breathing out, mentally think of the word "Sau".

THROAT  CHAKRA

Imagine opening your throat up like a gateway to an infinite blue sky, feeling the air come into your body through this gateway with no resistance. As you hold the breath, feeling the "cage" of any inhibition or self-doubt fall away from you, leaving free to spread your wings and fly on the out breath. In through the mouth for 4, hold for 4, out through the mouth for 4. 

Make the sound of EH.
Key Note D

THIRD  EYE  CHAKRA

Visualise the area in the centre of your forehead as source of light and knowledge. Imagine a powerful stream of bright light as you breathe in, hold and feel it get stronger, filling you completely as you empty your mind. On the out-breath allow yourself to travel into the patterns and images that emerge from inside your third eye. In through the nose for 8, hold for 4, out through the mouth for 8. 


Make the sound of IH.

CROWN  CHAKRA

Visualise a source of beautiful, blissful light above your head, breathe in a stream of love, light and awareness through your crown chakra, breathing in this light and luminosity through your whole body until you feel you are surrounded and held in a bubble of light. Breathe in softly through your mouth for 4, hold the breath for 2 and feel yourself begin to glow and then breathe this light energy back to the light source through your mouth for 4.
