Release blocks between creativity and action
Simple meditative healing sounds for the solar plexus
Minor 2nd dissonance to release blocks and move stagnant energy between the Sacral & Solar Plexus chakra
In this simple recording, you’ll hear the sounds of a low, large Tibetan singing bowl along with vocal toning. With my voice, I create two tones to engage both the solar plexus and the sacral chakra. These chakras sit next to each other in the body. The solar plexus chakra (just as it sounds) sits right at the solar plexus, the sacral is below in the pelvic area. With sound, we can work with the energy flow between these centers by using the interval of the 2nd.
The vibrational quality of the dissonant 2nd (major or minor) is great for initiating movement and creativity. It helps disperse excess energy, and unhelpful cyclical thought patterns. The pitches, or frequencies, and vowel sounds used in this recording target these centers.
Each chakra center has a measurable sonic frequency. The frequencies of certain pitches align with these centers. In this case, the solar plexus chakra’s frequency aligns with the pitch of E and the sacral chakra aligns with the pitch of D.
The singing bowl I use in this recording is at the frequency of 161hz, or about the pitch of E in our tuning system. First, I tone in unison with the bowl to resonate in with the solar plexus chakra. Then, I tone a minor 2nd below (about the pitch of D/D#) to resonate in with the sacral chakra. As these frequencies sound together, the dissonant minor 2nd emerges helping to get energy moving and flowing between these two centers.
Different vowel sounds have specific frequencies as well, and these also align with the chakras. In this case I tone the vowel sound OH to resonate with the solar plexus, and the vowel sound Oooo to resonate with the sacral chakra.
How will this recording be helpful?
The solar plexus is our center of discernment, will power and discipline, but the sacral chakra is where our creative ideas and sense of self begins. Before we can bring ideas, dreams and goals into action - we first have to allow ourself to dream, to feel, to get excited and inspired to do something. Also, we have to have a healthy sense of self to feel okay to move the energy of our creative potency to the next level.
So, listening and feeling the dissonance in this recording might be helpful if:
Are having difficulty bringing creative ideas into form.
Feel like you have so many ideas, but don’t know where to focus.
Feel creatively blocked.
Feel guilty spending time on your creativity, or ideas/projects that feel meaningful to you.
Feel like your inner critic/editor is constantly shutting down your creative efforts.
How to listen to the recording
Become as quiet as you can.
Bring your awareness to your solar plexus, your sacral chakra (below your belly button) and the area between these two centers.
Deeply listen to the sounds, and try to ‘hear’ them with your body.
Notice any subtle organic fluctuations or oscillations of the pitch. Envision these waves of energy pushing and pulling each other and see the energies of your field and body doing the same. These different vibratory textures may bring up different thoughts and feelings, just meet them all with awareness and curiosity.
As you hear the singing bowl and the OH tone, feel or ‘hear’ these vibes in your solar plexus. Feel your solar plexus becoming one with these sounds.
As you hear the dissonant Ooooo come in underneath, feel this in your sacral chakra. Feel your sacral chakra also becoming one with the sounds.
In your mind’s eye, see this dissonant interval shaking up any stuck energy or obstacles between your sacral and solar plexus chakras.
See any energy that feels confused, chaotic, tight, dense or self-doubting breaking apart, melting and flowing away.
If you feel called to tone along, please do so! Don’t be shy and take any pressure off yourself. Remember: this is not about making art or making music, it’s about making sounds and vibration.
Stay for as long as you need to, allow all these old energy patterns to fully drain away.
After several moments tune into the sensations of these centers. What do you notice?
Perhaps you feel clarity, lightening, bouyancy, inspiration, ease.
Note whatever you feel and enjoy the clear channel you have created between your center of creativity and your center of action.
