Sound can be viewed as a healing modality that can be used alone or combined with Meditation, Reiki, Reflexology, Acupressure, Massage, etc.  It is also safe to combine with Western medicine and known to shorten the recovery time. 

Everything is energy and everything vibrates.  Einstein’s E=mc² shows that energy can be converted into matter and vice versa.  Everything vibrates, whether in the form of energy, like sound, or in the form of matter.  I like Jonathan Goldman’s comparison of the human body being like an orchestra where the sound of each organ and each function combines to create the music of the body. When one aspect of the body gets ill or out of balance, the whole orchestra may give off disharmonic waves, causing disease.

By Tuning In To Sound you actually hear and feel the sound and vibrations beyond just your ears.  Sound resonates throughout your body and even on a cellular level.  Negative experiences and negative emotions such as fears are held in the body lowering our vibration and eventually manifesting as blocked energy in the body, and if these blocks aren’t released, this can bring on an emotional, mental and physical imbalance and dis-ease.

The Sounds and Vibrations from Aromatherapy, Color Therapy, Drumming (percussion), Ganta (bell), Gongs, Singing Bowls, Tingshaws and Tuning Forks resonate throughout the body and even on a cellular level.  The Sounds can fairly quickly R-E-L-A-X and harmonize the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual bodies.  Some of the benefits of a Sound Healing include:  reverses some of the impact of stress on your DNA, improves circulation/blood pressure, releases endorphins, increases mental clarity, expands consciousness and increases your overall health and well being.  Sound can also awaken or enhance your creativity, passion, joy, intuition, and inner wisdom, and strengthen your spiritual sense and aura.

Aromatherapy and Color Therapy Tip – Rose essential oil has the highest measured frequency (320 MHz).  The Color Rose resonates with Unconditional Love.  Love is also the highest emotional frequency we can emit!   Rose Essential Oil and the Color Rose can be used to balance the body, mind and spirit.  Interesting:  It takes about 180 lbs of roses to make one ounce of rose oil.  The Magical Musical Message associated with the Frequency of Rose is from a song by Willie Nelson called “Angel’s Flying Too Close to the Ground.”  The lyrics “Love is the greatest healer to be found” resonate with the Rose essential oil and color vibration of Rose.
