The Frequency Factor

Healing Hertz

The connection between frequencies and healing has always fascinated me. 

Have you ever wondered how music or sound can have such an effect on our moods?

By the way, it also has an effect on our bodies.  How would it not have an effect on us? We’re made up of energy. In fact, everything in the universe is made up of energy, and that energy vibrates at different frequencies. Our bodies are no exception, and when those vibrations get out of whack, meaning they become disharmonious, it can throw us off balance and lead to all sorts of health issues. This is why frequency healing seems so logical to me. So I took a sound healing certification course and learned that by using sound and other forms of vibration, we can help bring our bodies back into alignment and promote healing on a deep, cellular level.

How does it work? Well, let me tell you what I learned. Sound healing is truly amazing. It's like a full-body massage at a deeper level. The sound vibrations can actually help shift our brainwaves, reduce stress, and even improve our immune system function. Plus, it just feels really relaxing and good.

Specific frequencies have been shown to resonate with different parts of the body and can even target specific health concerns. It's like a secret language our bodies understand, and when we tap into it, the results can be nothing short of what appears to us as magical. Only it’s not magic, it’s math.  Frequencies can be measured and calculated.

The ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras, who was a huge contributor to mathematical and musical theory, believed that music had the power to purify one's spirit and promote optimal health. He advocated for listening to music several times a day as a way to maintain emotional and spiritual well-being, which he saw as closely connected to physical health. Pythagoras and his followers, known as Pythagoreans, believed that certain musical intervals and harmonies had healing properties and could restore balance within the human body.

Pythagoras is perhaps best known for the Pythagorean theorem, a fundamental concept in geometry. But beyond geometry, he made significant contributions to our understanding of numbers themselves. He believed that the universe could be explained through mathematics and that numbers were the fundamental building blocks of reality. Through this mindset, he explored the world of frequencies through sound and music.  He discovered that the most pleasing musical intervals were produced by simple numerical ratios, such as 2:1 for the octave, 3:2 for the perfect fifth, and 4:3 for the perfect fourth. This realization paved the way for modern musical tuning systems, showcasing the harmony and order found within mathematics, such as the Golden Mean (more on that in another blog).  Basically, he taught that the goal of life was to attain harmony and balance with the self and the universe.

If sound can help restore balance, why not try it? It seems to make mathematical sense.  If you're ready to explore the power of sound and vibration, you might just unlock a whole new level of healing and well-being.
