Moaning and groaning are cleansing sounds that come naturally when aches and pains are being released. High-pitched, penetrating sounds or even fierce screaming can help break up energy blockages that may have led to emotional and physical armoring. Release the sound that you feel from within. It may be a bloodcurdling, terrifying scream that could go on for several minutes, until they actually end in laughter.Releasing a scream that has been held in for decades can be a joyous, liberating experience.
Soothing and relaxing:
Through toning, you can provide a soothing environment for the release of tension. Humming can be calming to the nervous system, and help you to breathe deeply. You may feel inspired to sing words of support and encouragement, or even to break into familiar bars of music or pop tunes. Trust the impulse; it often turns out to be surprisingly appropriate.
Toining for the pain in your body:
Stand with your feet about shoulder length apart, and your body relaxed. If you prefer, sit at the edge of a chair with your back straight. You can stand up and move around whem the energy gets moving. Inhale through your nose and draw the breath down to your abdomen, so you can actually see your abdomen rising. Exhale through your mouth, making a slow moan, or whatever comes naturally. Through this 10 times. Whenever you feel pain or tension, bring your attention there and consciously breathe into it. As you exhale, release tension from that part of your body.
Breathing into your voice:
Lie down on the floor on your back. Place one hand on your chest, the other on your belly. feel your hands, rise and fall as your body expands and contract naturally while you take in and release air.
In order to feel the full expansion of your body, place your hands right above your waist line at your side, and enclosing the areas between your thumb and the other fingers. Push in forcibly against the diaphragm muscle as your body expands. As you continue to resist, improve your ability to expand, maintain the expansion, and breathe fully will improve.
Try singing a tone or a familiar melody as you breathe in this position. Listen for the difference in your voice between the way you usually sound, and the way you sound now. Let your voice express whatever you are feeling in the moment.
Making room for your voice:
As your stand or sit, stretch your spine. Reach for the ceiling with the top of the spine, reach for the floor with the bottom. Let the crown of your head reach for the ceiling as well. It is often helpful the picture and imaginary string that goes from the ceiling to the top of your head through your spine, and down to the floor. Imagine a hand gently pulling up the string. Release your shoulders and arms so they can swing freely,Make sure your knees are unlocked.
You will know you are aligned incorrectly if your shoulders are rounded, your chest is caved in, flat or jetting out, or if you’re abdomen or rear end is tightened or protruding.
Try sitting in a straight back chair so that you can focus on your spine. Feel the difference between your usual posture and this one. Breathe fully and gently without throwing your body out of line. As you breathe, feel of the muscles in your abdomen and back expand. You may be able to feel your back push against the back of the chair.
From this position, try yelling and letting a sound emerge. Do this a few times, until your release. Then, while fully expanded, begin to sing a familiar tune. Try singing with “ah” or “la” at first. Listen to the quality of your voice. What does it feel like to hear yourself singing? When you feel ready, add words. Close your eyes, stay fully expanded, and release your voice.
19,389 Americans do THIS “Brain Trick” Every Morning
Did Your “Genius Brain” Get Switched Off?
Most Seniors Don’t Realize This…
Getting older doesn’t have to mean your brain gets slower…
According to researchers, there’s a tiny but important part of the brain that gets “switched off” with age…
…And most people have no idea this is even happening to them.
Deep inside your brain sits a tiny structure called the hippocampus — basically your brain’s control center.
Memory, focus, mental sharpness… it all runs through there.
And according to neuroscientists, in 99% of adults over 50, it’s almost completely dormant.
Which explains things like:
❌ Brain fog
❌ Blurry memory
❌ Sudden blanks mid-conversation
None of that is “just aging.”
Your hippocampus is simply switched off.
Here’s where it gets interesting, though…
A neuroscientist recently discovered a “7-Second Brain Trick” that switches it back on.
People who’ve tried it describe it as “the fog suddenly lifted.”
So far, 19,389 Americans are doing this every morning and are reporting:
🧠 A sharper memory
⚡ All-day-long mental clarity
🎯 The “sharpness” from their younger days returning
