Studies and observations have revealed that chanting OM (ॐ ) has an effect on our hormonal system as the thyroid gland respond to the vibrations while chanting. Om creates vitalizing vibrations all through your body – especially in your lungs, heart, neck, jaw, tongue and brain. Chanting of Om as a form of thyroid cure is attempted by many people. The success of it can only be known through experience as there are no study conducted purely on it.
When we recite OM (ॐ ), you touch the palate with your tongue. In the palate, there are 84 meridian points, 64 in the hard palate and 20 in the soft palate. This vibration goes from the hypothalamus, the one that directs the actions of the pituitary gland, and governs the endocrine systems, or, the one in charge of releasing chemicals and hormones throughout the body, to the brain. This vibration (frequency) releases chemical hormones that balance the body, and have healing effects, emotional effects, and effects on one’s well being.
How To Chant Om For Thyroid Cure?
Close your eyes for a moment and say the sacred mantra Om (or Aum) out loud and clear three times – and hold the tone as long as possible. Om ((ॐ ) is pronounced “AAUUMMMMM” and it creates vitalizing vibrations throughout your body.
Regular Om chanting for 15 – 30 minutes gives a good progress.
Some Other Interesting Facts
The natural humming energy of Om exists all around us. Om vibrates at the frequency of 432 Hz, which is the same frequency as everything in nature. Useful sounds that are particularly beneficial to the body are a clean “A” or “O” sound which will make the chest, sternum and neck vibrate. Vibrations in the sternum will stimulate the immune system because the oscillations boost the thymus, a small gland in the chest which controls the production of the body’s key defense cells called T lymphocytes.
Vibrations in the throat will stimulate another important gland, the thyroid. This gland produces hormones that regulate metabolism and thus the body’s energy consumption and body weight. In addition, it also assists in strengthening heart function.
