Du15 Ya Men - Gateway of Muteness

The characters for this point symbolise a gate, speech and dumb. Thus the point is used to improve speech not just in terms of the voice but all speech problems including the ability to articulate well and choose words cleverly. It may be used to reorganise speech and resolve dumbness. This point provides the energy and power to communicate from our depths to the world around us.

The other aspect of communication is listening. When we do not speak we are often more open to listening to our inner self and others. This point can also help us to pause and listen rather than shoot off at the mouth without first listening.
