Can sitting meditation treat tinnitus?

Tinnitus is mainly a phenomenon caused by the flow of qi and mai (energy channels) reaching the ear faculty area but being unable to pass through. When one sits in meditation and the mind becomes calm, the qi and mai flow smoothly, the ear faculty is no longer blocked, and the tinnitus will disappear. One can also first find the cause of the tinnitus. If it is due to kidney deficiency, one should at the same time address and regulate the kidney deficiency, then eat black-colored foods to nourish the kidneys, and practice the "swaying ocean" exercise while sitting. For kidney deficiency, one can also visualize Buddha-light shining on the kidney area, expelling the black qi. One's own intention is very important; when meditative concentration is good, the power of intention is strong. If the qi is blocked at the back of the head, then while sitting one should recite the Medicine Buddha mantra and visualize Buddha-light shining upon the back of the head—golden Buddha-light entering, black and gray qi going out—and the tinnitus will disappear.
