The Biofield Anatomy Map: A Sound Approach to Healing

This post explores Eileen McKusick’s discovery of the Biofield Anatomy Map, her philosophy behind Biofield Tuning, and how she’s revolutionizing the field of sound therapy.
Biofield Tuning: A Path to Health and Harmony
Biofield Tuning is an innovative sound therapy method that uses tuning forks and vibrational frequencies to promote relaxation, balance, and harmony in the body and mind. By working with the biofield—the energy field surrounding the body—this practice may support emotional and physical well-being by addressing energy blockages and stress. The vibrations produced by the tuning forks encourage the nervous system to respond, potentially releasing subtle energy and restoring flow.
Eileen McKusick’s Journey Mapping the Human Biofield
Eileen McKusick, the founder of Biofield Tuning and author of “Electric Body, Electric Health” and “Tuning the Human Biofield,” has studied the human body’s electrical system for over two decades. Much like neuroscientists map the brain, McKusick has meticulously charted the biofield, offering insights into how emotional patterns, mindsets, and traumas may reside within this energy field. Her fascination with vibrational healing led her to propose that our memories are stored in standing waves within the biofield, like a personal cloud storage system surrounding the body.
Driven by her deep curiosity, McKusick began using tuning forks, similar to sonar, to explore the energetic space around the body. After three years of research, she identified a structure now called the Biofield Anatomy. Her work suggests that emotions may emit distinct frequencies and tonal qualities, detectable with tuning forks. She also explored the temporal aspect of the biofield, proposing that the magnetic field surrounding the body may be intertwined with the mind, possibly encoding memories in a vibrational format. This discovery of the Biofield Anatomy has demonstrated remarkable consistency across individuals.
Exploring the Biofield Anatomy Map
The Biofield Anatomy Map can help identify and release specific emotions, traumas, and ailments within the biofield. It’s especially helpful for clients Integrating Biofield Tuning sessions. Understanding this map may provide valuable insights into the origins of physical, mental, and emotional imbalances, which are often thought to be rooted in trauma. For example, recurring soreness in the right hip might indicate a tendency to overthink or excessively plan for the future. Becoming aware of this connection may help you relax both mind and body in the present.
The Biofield Anatomy Map allows for the exploration of potential imbalances in the seven major chakras, as well as the chakras located at the knees and feet. Each chakra is believed to be associated with specific emotions and states of mind. By understanding this map, you may gain insights into how emotional and mental patterns could relate to physical issues, such as accidents, injuries, or illnesses. These physical challenges are often linked to underlying mental or emotional imbalances and past traumas. Identifying these connections may help address and release energy blockages within the body.
Now, let’s explore the chakras and the emotions or states of mind commonly associated with each one.
Earth Star Chakra
Located beneath your feet, the Earth Star chakra is thought to connect you to the grounding energy of the Earth. Acting like a “battery terminal,” this chakra may help you discharge excess energy and establish a deeper sense of connection with the Earth’s stabilizing forces.
Foot Chakras
Right: Often associated with the next steps in your journey, your direction, and how you feel about where you’re headed.
Left: May relate to feelings of being stuck or mired in a situation, wanting to move away from a stressor but feeling unable to.
Knee Chakras
Right: Often associated with challenges in moving forward, confusion, or encountering obstacles.
Left: ay relate to difficulties with attachment and challenges in letting go.
Root Chakra
Right side: Often linked to feelings of busyness, overdoing, and overthinking.
Left side: May relate to desires for things you want to be doing, being, or having, as well as unmet needs.
Sacral Chakra
Right side: Often associated with feelings of guilt and shame.
Left side: May relate to frustration and disappointment.
Solar Chakra
Right side: Often linked to your relationship with your father, feelings of anger, and is connected to the edge of the Adrenal Field.
Left side: May relate to your relationship with your mother and feelings of powerlessness.
Heart Chakra
Right side: Often associated with saying yes when you mean no, caretaking, and accommodating others.
Left side: May relate to emotions such as sadness, grief, loss, and depression.
Throat Chakra
Right side: Often associated with speaking but feeling unheard.
Left side: May relate to things you do not say or express.
Third Eye Chakra
Right side: Often associated with thoughts about the past.
Left side: May relate to worries about the future.
Both sides: May be linked to experiences of concussion or head injury.

Often associated with your relationship with time and nature.
Sun Star Chakra
Located above your head, the Sun Star is thought to connect you to the positive descending energy of the sun and cosmos.
“The sides of each chakra are like file drawers containing records of a specific emotion or state of mind.” — Eileen McKusick
Beyond Chakras: Ancestral River, Parent Zones, and More

A Biofield Tuning session goes beyond the major chakras, exploring additional areas such as the Ancestral River, Parent Zones, and Common Ditches. This tuning process may also extend to specific cells, organs, body systems, and scar tissue. Each area is believed to influence overall well-being and may offer opportunities for shifts toward greater harmony and energetic flow.
Ancestral River
Did you know that you may have inherited more than just physical traits like eye and hair color from your ancestors? Their mental and emotional tendencies—such as depression, anger, or anxiety—may also be passed down through generations. Although it may seem unrelated, your ancestors’ physical, mental, and emotional experiences could have a significant influence on your life. By tuning into the energetic patterns within your DNA, you might be able to remove the noise, change the key, and shift how these influences express themselves in you, your ancestors, and your descendants. As you move toward greater harmony and flow, it may positively affect others as well.
Mother and Father Zones
The Mother Zone (left) and Father Zone (right) are believed to reside on the sides of your biofield, potentially holding energetic information related to your parents.
Left and Right-Hand Ditches
Energy may become stuck in the left and right-hand ditches located on the sides of the body, which can lead to attachments to old patterns. The central energy channel is thought to balance feminine and masculine energies, and any imbalanced expressions of these polarities might result in feeling energetically stuck on one side or the other.
The left-hand ditch is often associated with more feminine, passive, yin-like imbalances, which may include frustration, disappointment, unmet needs, sadness, stifled expression, and powerlessness.
The right-hand ditch is typically linked to more masculine, active, yang-like imbalances, such as anger, aggression, blame, overdoing, overthinking, and self-righteousness.
