Listening with a Clean Ear, Hearing the Heart’s Voice Listening encompasses both hearing sounds and smelling odors. Physicians assess the nature and location of diseases by listening to the patient’s sounds, such as coughing, breathing, and speech, as well as by smelling body odors and excretions. During the listening examination, doctors must possess keen auditory and olfactory senses, along with a high level of concentration. Just as a person of integrity hears no distracting noise, they can listen to the true sounds of the world. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), listening is performed with a clean ear to hear the voice of human health.Source: Publicity DepartmentEditor: Yu Hong
