If your heart feels a bit battered… if you feel exhausted mentally and emotionally sometimes with everything that’s going on… well, here is an exercise to help your physical heart. There is always a lot of focus on the heart chakra, but right now it is your physical heart that will be taking a great deal of the strain. So, here’s something to make it feel just a little better.
You can do it for as long as you like and as often as you like. It will always help.
So will smiling at your physical heart, from time to time and sending it love and appreciation for everything it does for you … every moment of every day, even when you are not even aware of it!
Although the usual sound used to resonate the heart is AH, I am recommending another one – HAW.
AH is actually better for the heart chakra, though it is such a lovely sound it is beneficial whenever you make it and wherever you send it! And if you are drawn to use it rather than the one below, please do. It is, after all, your body and your sound!
But HAW is used in Chinese Traditional Medicine, as is the red chi mentioned below, and, together, they work really well for the physical heart.
And it is important to always remember that this is your sound, no one else’s. So make it as loud as you like, as long as you like and use a tone that suits you and your heart. You may find that after working for a while, the tone changes as the energy in your heart changes. Just go with whatever comes out of your mouth!
Your body always knows the frequency it lacks, so just give it a chance to replace it. Toning like this is a way to lend your body a voice since it doesn’t have one of its own.
So, why not give it a go?
- Ground firmly
- Sit and focus on your breath, setting your intention for your sound and breath work.
- Now connect with your physical heart. See it or sense it in the left-hand side of your chest and use your in breath to draw red chi into the organ and use your out breath to exhale anything your heart does not need – tension, stress hormones, toxins, negative emotional energy. You know your heart so you will know what you need to clear from your heart.
- And, on your out breath, make the sound HAW.
- Repeat for as long as you need to make sound.
- Ground and return your attention to your surroundings … and don’t forget to smile at your heart again!
Another exercise you can do using red chi and the Haw sound is:
- Ground firmly
- Sit and focus on your breath, setting your intention for your sound and breath work.
- Now connect with your physical heart. See it or sense it in the left-hand side of your chest and use your in breath to draw red chi into the organ and use your out breath to exhale anxiety which gathers in the physical heart.
- And, on your out breath, make the sound HAW.
- Repeat for as long as you need to make sound.
- Ground and return your attention to your surroundings … and don’t forget to smile at your heart again!
Enjoy this time you spend with your heart. It will benefit you and the whole of your physical body!
Bright Blessings!
