relaxed, which generates a certain condition of energy and can be enough in itself to induce a slightly altered state of consciousness.























The friction comes from area L (for larynx)
• The throat friction is more comfortable and more efficient when it comes from the back of the throat, not from the mouth and palate [area M on the figure - M for middle of the mouth] nor from the area close to the teeth [area F - F for front of the mouth].
If you were to produce your friction from the middle [M] or the front [F] of the mouth, the sound would be higher-pitched and somewhat shriller or even whistly. Experiment and compare each one.
• The correct friction comes from the larynx and the lower pharynx, meaning the lower part of the back of the throat [area L on the figure]. Then the (correct) sound is lower pitched, deeper and more internalised than if it came from the front of the mouth.
• Another possible mistake would be to generate your friction from the upper pharynx (nasopharynx), meaning at the back but at the top of the throat, behind the inner nasal cavity [area N on the figure]. In that case, which is incorrect, the friction would resonate more in the nasal sinuses than in the throat.
