Quick question – I just spent 15 minutes doing nothing but CH breath, slingshot out with just lips, then visualiser, mouthpiece, and leadpipe. Repeating over and over. I noticed that sometimes I will get a slight whistling sound through my lips, mouthpiece, and leadpipe, not with visulizer though. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Hey buddy, you’re the 3rd person to mention the whistle in the last week 🙂

I don’t have any issue with it but the more I think about it, I suspect it is symptomatic of lips that haven’t quite let go yet BUT also might be the more it happens, the closer you are to actually getting the sympathetic oscillation.

Stick with it! I cannot explain the amount of repetitions that it might take, 1. to discover it and 2. to implant it. The words I didn’t say but I alluded to is to “surrender to the process” from Zen in the Art of Archery.

If you read it, you will see it took the guy over 12 months to surrender before he “loosed the bow” correctly.

As I said earlier, I’ll help out however I can. I am up with the folks now so will be offline for until I get home Sunday afternoon for the launch of the #wihsc.
