About this session
- Builds groundedness
- Strengthens inner security
- Lengthens your breath
- Tunes you to vibration
Ruwan Meepagala guides you through rounds of humming the note C, first in the middle register, then low, then high. Between rounds you breathe out a little longer each time, and you tighten the ring muscles at the base of the body on the inhale, letting go as you exhale.
It suits anyone who wants to begin the day settled, or who feels shaky about home, boundaries or stability. Do it somewhere you can hum out loud and sit upright. Mornings are ideal, and the closing invitation gives you a way to stay grounded afterwards.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
Why hum the note C for the root chakra?
The session names C as the frequency of the root chakra. You hum it while keeping your attention at the root, and you're told not to worry about slipping out of pace or pitch. What matters is focusing on the vibration and feeling it, especially in the quiet just after each hum, which is when it's easiest to notice.
What is the squeezing and releasing for?
You squeeze the ring muscles for a whole inhale and release slowly on the exhale, first without sound and then with the hum. The idea is to signal to your subconscious that you are in control. The guidance links this to choice: you alone decide whether these muscles, and you, contract or relax, and what you say yes or no to.
Why does the session talk about early childhood?
Ruwan describes the root as active from birth, tied to the instinct to seek nourishment, and says you first learn to control these muscles around the time you learn the word no. He suggests that any lingering insecurity may have been imprinted then and can be released. It is offered as a possibility, not a diagnosis.
How do the low, middle and high C differ?
Middle C is the base. The low C is the vibration of putting roots into the ground: keep your belly relaxed, feel it in your chest rather than your throat, and imagine reaching your energy down into the earth. The high C is felt in the bridge of your nose, and shows how easy it is to expand and rise when you feel rooted.
What if I can't match the pitch or don't want to hum?
You can follow along with the hum, stay with middle C, or simply listen and feel. The octave rounds are explicitly optional. Pitch accuracy isn't the point.
What should I do after the meditation?
Ruwan invites you to keep some awareness of the vibration through the day, and to hum the frequency to yourself whenever you like. If something in your physical or metaphorical home is out of order and you can fix it, he suggests doing something about it today.
