What is Toning and how does it support Healing Touch?
Toning is one of the most important, useful and effective tools I use daily to restore harmony. I use it to:
- clear and balance my chakras
- reduce pain
- calm emotional upsets
- strengthen my immune system
- strengthen my field and energy
… and so much more.
Toning is the natural voice of the body. It comes from the body rather than the mind. We make these sounds all the time. We just don’t call it toning.
A sigh is one of the body’s natural ways to release negative energy or pent up emotion it no longer wants to hang on to. A sigh is more socially acceptable in Western society than moans and groans for example, which are often discouraged.
Examples of other sounds that flow from the body’s natural voice are ahhh, oooo, ohh, eeee, uhhh, hah. I’m sure you can think of many more.
These are all natural sounds of the body to help bring it back into tune. These sounds also stimulate the brain to release endorphins that help the body heal itself or manage pain.
In her book, “Toning, The Creative Power of the Voice,” Laurel Elizabeth Keyes states:
“The purpose of all toning is to restore the vibratory pattern of the body to its perfect electro-magnetic field, so that it will function in harmony with itself. . .” (p. 10)
Using Toning to Clear and Balance your Chakras and Entire Energetic System
One of the systems of toning I love to use is the system of using vowel sounds to affect the chakras. This system was created by Jonathan Goldman in 1986. It has become the most widely used system and is easy to learn.
There are several ways you can explore the toning the chakras:
- tone the notes of the scale from C, root chakra to B, crown chakra with or without a musical instrument.
- tone the root chakra with the lowest sound your voice can make. As you tone up the chakras, the sound of your voice gets higher with each one until you tone the highest sound
you can make for the crown chakra. - tone all of the chakras on one sound and create a clear intention as you tone each one.
Using the sacred vowel system with Healing Touch
As you work with the chakras using Healing Touch, tone the vowel sound for that chakra. Make sure your intention for the toning and touch is clear.
The sound of your voice works at the physical level as it pushes against atoms and molecules and sends them into a state of vibration. At the same time, the healing touch is working at other levels.
Sound and touch support each other in such magnificent ways!
Is there a way to tell if a chakra has come more into balance?
How does that area of the body feel? As you tone, listen for where the sound changes. Does your voice crack? Does it become clearer or stronger? Is the sound softer or louder? Does it feel different? If it feels that the chakra we are focusing on has cleared or is balanced, then use the rest of the tones to strengthen it.
Toning Moments to Remind You How Profoundly Your Own Voice Heals
Every day on my personal page on Facebook, I share a Toning Moment as a reminder of how simple it is to use your voice. And how profoundly it heals.
Your voice is the most powerful healing tool you have. It resonates every cell of your body with every sound that you make. This creates actual physical response in your body, emotional response, mental response (like more focus), and spiritual connection – your voice is the expression of your soul. The toning moments cycle through the sacred vowel sounds associated with the chakras – a different chakra each day. A moment of sacred sound, created by you, to enhance health, harmony and your brilliance- every day!

Let’s take a look at the software that handles stress or relaxation. The autonomic nervous system has 2 divisions that work like a teeter-totter. One division takes control, and the other yields. And then the other takes control.
Perceptions are most often formed in our childhood, and often before age 6. They are like sunglasses that filter our responses based on our experiences, and largely on messages from those we trust, including who we trust. When faced with a situation, our stored memories, and our interpretations of them are the foundation of our perceptions. It is important to note that not all of our perceptions serve us. A memory of a dog chasing you as a child make place a fear of dogs in your memories, yet it may be that the dog simply wanted to play. 
In 1998, Robert F Furchgott, Louis J Ingnarro, and Ferid Murad won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for the discovery that our cells puff and release nitric oxide. Nitric oxide, is a gas that acts as a signalling molecule in the body. Since its discovery, the U.S. government and the pharmaceutical medical complex have spent hundreds of million of dollars investigating this gas. As a result, medications are now widely available to support cardiovascular disease, and others.
