Protocol from Laurie Love - Trust - Allow States of being can go far in calming a dysregulated nervous system. Quelling a brain on overdrive. This is a “simple” process that I go to when I begin to disintegrate into the mind of worry, fear and judgment. It is for me a refreshing 1-2-3 deceleration into tranquility and peace. Let’s do the countdown: Take a deep belly breath, release with the out-breath everything but “the now.” When ready… 1. Open your clothes closet in your mind's eye. There is nothing but one hat. It can be as simple or as fancy as you want. It only contains one label or word. It is “love.” Put it on. It is the only hat uniform you need. Now listen to Ohm Unison. 2. A hat of love encourages a sense of deep trust. Trust in life, and more importantly a trust in yourself. You trust each moment and even that arises this day. It flows from and thru “love.” Now place Ohm/Full Moon over the heart chakra. Move in a small figure eight to include the third chakra or “Will” center. 3. By trusting the flow, we are able to allow each moment and even in your day to arise and play out. The need to control or react is quelled. We love. We trust. Now listen to Ohm/Zodiacal . Allow the peaceful meditative expansion to enter your resonant field. Breathe out the need to judge and control. Now place Ohm Unison on Kidney I. The state of being is “love.” All I have to “do” is be loving all day long.

I wrote this protocol while Laurie and I were up in Mt. Shasta for some much needed retreat and self care. We were one hour south of the awful fires in southern Oregon, and just up the Central Valley from many other terrible fires, in the valley itself, the foothills and in the Sierra Nevada. In a fiery cauldron, but we had a magical reprieve: two days of clear air with blue sky, and astounding stars. As I was treating myself with the Acutonics tuning forks, I realized I could treat myself and treat the forests at the same time - soften my own Wood Element, calm the Shen of Humanity - because Heaven, Earth and I are one. If you are feeling powerless about the quality of the air, despair about the continued raging fires, tumult in our country, the state of COVID-19....This protocol is for you, and the Earth, right now. All intervals are mid frequency unless noted. Begin this Protocol by listening to Ohm Unison and bringing it down to the Earth chakra. Repeat with the Low Ohm unison or with Ohm Octave. Next, activate UB 10 and UB 60: these 2 points on the Yang Water Channel (Urinary Bladder) help us to be rooted like a mountain and reach up into the cosmos. We are what is between Heaven and Earth. Use New Moon 5th, followed by Full Moon 6th. If you are giving this treatment to someone else, spread the forks from UB 10 to UB 60 on each side to accentuate the stretch from upper Yang to lower Yin. Follow with Spleen 3, Source point of the Spleen, nourishing the Yin of the Earth Channel: Use Saturn/Ohm to stabilize Earth, give structure to the Earth so it can contain the fire: as an earthen fire pit. Follow with Earthday/Saturn to help encourage Earth fertility, which feeds the forest and helps it stay resilient. If you have Demeter, use Demeter, or invoke her essence at your own 2nd and 5th chakras. Keep yourself resilient, your soul rich and fecund, and open your Throat chakra to speak and sing and sound for the Earth. If we look at the Ren Channel, what I feel here is that the Opening point, Lung 7, Broken Sequence, allows us access to respiration, to fresh oxygen (including creative ideas and solutions) and to the grief that we are feeling at the forces of nature so out of balance. It also helps us access the Po, the Spirit of the Metal Element: taking in and letting go (of that we must release, that which is no longer useful) The Balance point, Kidney 6, is a reservoir of Yin, the primordial, essential component that MUST balance Yang for our eco system to thrive... or in this case, survive. Use this order of intervals in the Ren channel:
For the 2nd 8 extraordinary Vessel, I would ask you to choose which one feels like the right one for you, or for the person you are treating. If you want me to choose one so that it is a recipe, I will choose the Chong channel. Why? For the purposes of the As Above, So Below: The Chong channel connects the Ming Men (Du 4) to your heart, and it contains the primordial DNA and cosmic blueprint of you, and by extension, of the Earth. The Opening point of the Chong, Spleen 4, (Grandparent Grandchild) holds our ancestral DNA. The Balance point, Pericardium 6 (Inner Gate) is on a Fire Channel, connecting us to our own Spirit, our own inner flame. Assessment of your own Shen here is very important - do you need cooling and calming? Do you need enlivening to bring back your own passion for your life and your work? Here, you can repeat the same intervallic pairings and order that you used on the Ren channel, and add layers of Full Moon as well:
If you need to activate your passion to get back into action as a light worker (we need you!), add a layer of Mars. Has your Mars been challenged by all the COVID 19 constrictions? Use Mars/Chiron. If you need some inspiration and the moons did not get you there, add Neptune/Ohm, then Neptune/Venus. To close: In honoring the forests, the Earth and yourself, use Vesta over your Heart chakra and 3rd Eye, affirming that you will continue to follow your own knowing. You will stay true to the Yin nature in yourself and sink your roots deep in the Earth. Use a Tibetan bell at your heart, your throat and your 3rd eye, finishing with a figure 8 and/or a Spiral, joining with the Earth and all her inhabitants, pledging to stay awake to your flares of fire, to be responsible to nourish your own Earth and calm your own Shen. How are the fires out your way?? So much trauma, new and revisited, as we now struggle to breathe the air with hundreds and hundreds of fires burning at once: Ground yourself with Ohm Unison (listening and on Kidney 1). If you have 2 Low Ohms, listen and ground with those as well. Use the Spread between Lung 1 and Liv 14 Clear congestion and burning sensation with Zodiac /Ohm: Zodiac on Lung 1 and Ohm on Liver 14 Next layer is New Moon/Ohm, which cools and moistens the lungs and creates a sense of expansion in the chest. You can also spread from Lung 1 to Lung 7 or LI 4 with Zodiac and Ohm, follow with New Moon/Ohm. If you are feeling dryness and phlegm, add a layer of Full Moon /Ohm as well. If you have Mercury, add that for its affinity with the Lung and help with clearing toxins. Use on same points above and if the air is truly hideous, with all kinds of particulates, put on your masks (the kind that filter out particles!) and add Liver 3 and LI 4. Zodiac/ohm Chiron/Ohm Mercury/Ohm Calm yourself with New Moon/Ohm on Third eye, on your Crown chakra (Du 20) at your heart and then your 2nd chakra. And ground with Ohm - for you, for your neighbors, for all those who have been torn from their homes. By Laurie Herron Written by Lake Siskiyou, looking at Mt. Shasta Listen to Low New Moon/Low Ohm and let it bring you into a contemplative state... The big energy coming in now is from the Galactic core, according to astrologers. It is as if a pause button has been pressed for your own story, and the work is now in the collective. Use Chiron/Ohm at the heart to bring you to your bridge between your small Self to your Big vast Self. Earth element represents your everyday life, and it usually keeps Water in check, like a riverbank or dam. For right now, we want to let the Water flow, to activate your inner knowing. Use Chong channel: Earthday on Spleen 4 and Sun on Pericardium 6 (you can tell this is a Laurie rule-breaker protocol!) Then, at the knees, use High Frequency Full Moon and HF Ohm 1 in a Figure 8 above and around the knees. Then at the Throat chakra, use Low Ohm and HF Solar 1: Twirl the Solar fork around the Low Ohm. You have opened a stream of unconscious information. Then write whatever comes to you after doing this process. To close it, use the Yang Wei mai on: San Jiao 5, use Low New Moon, on GB 41, use Low Ohm. On Kidney 1: Use Ohm Unison to bring you back into present time. GB 40 – A Hill mound in the Wilds of Nature
2) LU 4 3) Three Treasures 4) LV 14 5) LU 2 6) HT 7 – Two movements / Heart out, In balance Essentially, treating someone for PTSD, intense recent grief, or severe insomnia is a treatment that will share core qualities. May this be very helpful to all who encounter it. The first principle in each case is to calm the Spirit. Right now, the New Moon is your best tool for gentle yet profound treatment of a Shen or Spirit disorder. This is because: The heart houses the Mind, the Heart stores the Spirit. Be sure to let them listen to Ohm. It is so important to call them back to themselves. After grounding with Ohm at the feet: Sweep at the throat with the New Moon 5th. Use the New Moon also at the 3rd eye, and you can also use it at the Crown. Keep paying attention to how your client is responding. If it feels appropriate, you may feel it is the right thing to follow with Full Moon for any of these points. You may want to use your bowl and Solar forks after opening and clearing the heart and the 3rd eye and crown. Next, Open the 4 Gates with Zodiac 3rd: Liver 3 and LI 4. You can follow with a layer of Chiron if that feels right. (If your client has started out quite agitated or angry or upset, you may use the 4 Gates after grounding and then proceed to calming the Spirit. This may already feel like a very powerful treatment to some people. Want more? Add Spleen 6 with New Moon and followed by Full Moon. This will stabilize the Earth element, which is enormously important to feel safe. It is also excellent for treatment of anxiety and insomnia. Add Kidney 3 Great Ravine with New Moon, then Full Moon. Feel free to add a layer of Chiron here. Remember that Chinese Medicine includes the adrenals in with the Kidney system. Anyone suffering from acute or longtime PTSD or chronic insomnia has some level of marked Kidney deficiency. Now for some Eight Extraordinary channels: If your client primarily has issues with anxiety and /or panic attacks, choose the Yin Wei channel (P6 and Spleen4) and pair it with Ren or Chong. If PTSD is the primary concern, the Chong channel treats the muscle memory, especially traumatic memory. Use New Moon, then Chiron, then Zodiac to release those memories from the body, the mind and the Spirit. If Insomnia is the chief complaint, choose the Yin Qiao Mai (Kid 6 and Lung 7) and the Ren or Chong. Use New Moon and follow with Chiron and /or Full Moon for Yin Qiao channel. You do not have to add two of the eight extra. If it feels like they need it, add them. Using the bowl at the feet is very soothing, as is using it on the belly. Sometimes I give the client the mallet and they use it on the bowl on their belly for themselves. If you have a bell, it is a very special tool for all of the three concerns. The bells are profound over the heart, as well as gently around the throat (not too close). It calls the Spirit back to the Heart, which is commonly needed in all three cases. Please note: I have not recommended Earth Day or Solar for any of these concerns. In most cases, the first treatment will not involve tonification in that direct fashion. There are many exceptions, but this is a guide. Always end with Ohm at the feet. Kidney 1, to help them leave feeling grounded.

Off Body PTSD Protocol This protocol works by releasing the client from the repetition of victim / wounding by shining light and bringing consciousness into the time / space lockdown that they are trapped in. This liberates the Chiron wound that causes suffering, waking them from the endless dream.
By Katie Mink, L.Ac. Our forum teaches how to treat a cold, flu and allergies. But here is a way to avoid experiencing them in the first place. This is what I do for my clients on a regular basis, adding individual points and intervals as needed. In Level I, we teach a basic (yet extremely effective) Acutonics tune-up protocol for the Earth Moon Professional Set. This protocol contains Chiron as well as Mars and Venus for those who have those forks. No problem to omit them - you will still get very good results. This is wonderful for Self-Care as well as for your clients, friends and family. (All fork combinations are used 3 times.) Start with Ohm Unison, really listening for a good deep Ohm refresh. Do this 3 times, then bring the 2 Ohms to Kidney 1, Gushing Spring, at the soles of your feet. If you have the Low Ohm, (or 2 of them), repeat with Low Ohm. Now you or your client are on the way to feeling peaceful and grounded. A tremendous amount of research has shown that breathing deeply, even for short periods, lowers blood pressure. It also Calms the Spirit in Chinese Medicine. This is a powerful first step in strengthening the immune system. Use New Moon/Ohm in a sweep around the throat, off the body, opening the Windows of the Sky points. Next, use New Moon/Ohm at REN 22, Celestial Chimney, located at the sternal notch. This opens the Throat Chakra, as well as opening the lymphatic region of the throat. Next, to clear any stagnation or stuck energy that prevents free flow of Qi: Use Zodiac/Ohm on the 4 Gates: Large Intestine 4, Union Valley and Liver 3, Great Surge. Feel yourself feeling less constricted, more in the flow of your life. Follow with New Moon /Ohm on these points if you wish for cooling and more clearing. If you have Chiron, add a layer of Chiron/Ohm to the 4 Gates if you are chronically overworked or struggling with depression, frustration, anger, or overwhelm: each of these can lead to an impaired immune system. Chiron addresses the wounding aspect of chronic problems. Next , let’s strengthen your Qi and resilience: Use Earthday/Ohm on Kidney 3, Great Ravine (inner ankle). If you have Mars/Venus, this is a perfect spot for them: strengthening Yin and Yang of the Kidney and the whole body. Follow with Stomach 36, Leg 3 Miles: this is a premier immune point. If you have digestive issues, you can use Chiron/Ohm or New Moon /Ohm first. Otherwise use Earthday/Ohm. You can use Mars/Venus here as well. Come back up to the sternum, where the Thymus gland is located. The Thymus is said to be the “University of the Immune System”, so use Earthday/Ohm to give it a boost. If you are chronically challenged by allergies and colds, use Chiron/Ohm here first. Is the mind busy? Add New Moon/Ohm to the 3rd Eye 👁 To finish, listen to Ohm again. Sweep the Ohm Unison down to the soles of your feet, Kidney 1, to bring your energy down to the Earth, to feel your connection to the things that are truly abiding. Take a few deep breaths in Peace. You can do this every day if you wish. There are many, many ways to customize this for yourself and your clients. Come in for a session and I will be happy to give you a personalized preventive protocol as well as a treatment. Copyright © 2018 West Coast Acutonics. All Rights Reserved.
Created by Valerie Carpenter Certified Acutonics Practitioner So many people experience difficulty with all kinds of change. Even if we have organized our whole lives to avoid it, there are some forces beyond our control. The changing of the season is one of these, and for many people the dimming of the light, of the Yang time and vitality, is a cause of sorrow, and even fear the coming darkness. This is an eternal dilemma that humans remembering that we are between Heaven and Earth and part of the celestial dance have faced since ancient times. Being able to find our place on Earth, right now, always makes us feel safer. Reach for your forks to help you with your next transition:
Next, clear out any old residue or stagnation or wind from the Metal channel of the large intestine using Zodiac 3rd on L14. Add LW3 for a 4 Gates clearing, which will help release stagnation at a systematic, whole body level. During the preparation for Autumn comes a time of discerning and assessing what to bring forward into the next cycle. Chinese philosophy uses the metaphor of not wanting to pack something away in a pantry of storage that is moldy. Clean out that which is not useful now for prevention of disease in Winter and make room for fresh new growth in Springtime.
This protocol is very fast - it can be done in about three minutes using the Earth/Moon professional set of Acutonics tuning forks!
Are you feeling triggered? Have a few minutes? Got forks? This is a fast way to Pacify the Heart and Calm the Spirit, or in Western terms: Calm the brain and nervous system and reconnect to the Heart Wisdom, lower cortisol, and find your breath. Remember, you are connected to the Divine. This is also a very good way to clear the mind and create enough spaciousness to meditate when your mind is spinning. You KNOW that meditation is good for you; you hear it and read it all the time. But how to do it when you feel so triggered? Try this out!
