Chi Kung Healing Sounds

By Claire Diab and Dennis Boyle

Chi Kung (also spelled Qi Gong) is an ancient healing practice from China dating back 5,000 years. It is the art and science of using breathing techniques, gentle movements, and meditation to cleanse, strengthen, and circulate the life energy “Chi” in and around the body.  

Chi Kung is a powerful, practical tool that people can easily learn to relieve stress and tension and replace them with energy and vibrant health. It can also help get us back in touch with ourselves and our beautiful bodies, minds, and spirits. It enables us to break the negative habits we have acquired and replace them with positive ones that support our health and well-being. Chi Kung is a natural, easy form of self-care that can make a difference in your life and how you feel every day.  

Each organ is surrounded by a sac or membrane called fascia. The fascia releases excess heat out through the skin and brings in cool life force and energy from nature. An overload of emotional or physical stress causes the fascia to stick to the organ, which then is not able to release its heat or toxins. The organs and skin can become clogged with toxins, and the organs can become overloaded.  These healing sounds release the heat and toxins.
