"Every illness is a musical problem; every cure is a musical solution" Novalis 16th century
For Centuries man has been fascinated with the frequencies of sound and healing. Numerous scientific studies indicate that sound has a dramatic effect on our bodies, our minds, and our environment. The I Ching, Chinese Book of Wisdom states that "music has the power to ease tension within the heart and to lessen and loosen obscure emotions". In a popular book by Don Campbell it is noted that The Mozart Effect ®, which means the transformational powers of music, temporarily elevated student's IQ by 8-9 points. Now that's impressive by any standards.
One of the most interesting studies was done by Robert C. Beck. (1) In a quote from Wiki Answers we read, "Robert Beck performed his own research on electro-stimulation of the healing process and found that the human body has numerous very specific frequencies at which production of different endorphins, beta-endorphins, catecholamines, enkephalins, dynorphins, proteins, and stem cells were triggered." (2) Kate Pengelly writes in an article which appeared in Positive News, "Scientists Discover Healing Frequency in Animal Sounds" "Put a cat and a bunch of broken bones in the same room" some veterinary schools joke, "and the bones will heal." Only two years ago scientists discovered that vibrations between 20-140 Hz (at low db) are anabolic for bone growth and will also help to heal fractures, mend torn muscles and ligaments, reduce swelling, and relieve pain. Scientists from Fauna research institute have found that a cat's purr not only matches this vibration, but its dominant frequencies are 25 and 50 Hz - the optimum frequencies for bone growth and fracture healing. All cats, including larger ones such as pumas, ocelots and lions, have further sets of strong harmonics at the exact hertz (number of cycles per second) that generate muscle strength, increase joint mobility and provide therapeutic pain relief.
Author Gillian McKieth suggests in his best selling book, You Are What You Eat, then perhaps You Are What You Hear. Sound frequencies are also have a profound effect on our state of being. Today our world is full of sounds that we don't always have the ability to control. Our senses are bombarded with the sounds of traffic, televisions, phone calls, and a whole host of unseen frequencies that we would rather not know about. Not to despair. We are able to enhance our sense of harmony and well being with a few simple changes in our environment, such as playing background music that soothes the mind and relaxes the body.
You may prefer to listen to the sound of a babbling brook, the ocean waves or the beautiful songs of birds. We have found that hanging tuned wind chimes from the trees, the deck and the eaves of our home send gentle musical tones on the sail of the wind have a calming effect on ourselves and the environment. Tuned wind chimes are musical instruments in their own right and they don't require special recording equipment. The dance of the wind plays the chimes in the harmony of nature. Wind Chimes also have the benefit of creating harmonizing overtones as the tubes resonate with each other. The resonance can be achieved with one set of chimes or by placing a group of chimes near each other. It's a great way to set the tones in your life.
Go ahead and experiment with various options and find what harmonized with you specifically. Have fun, relax and the sounds that you are hearing.
Will of the Wind's Melodious Grace Note Wind Chimes — for the Wind's Every Mood
Designed for ultimate clarity of tone and resonance, these Grace Note, tuned wind chimes, feature a unique pinned suspension device combined with superior materials and craftsmanship. Grace Note chimes incorporates the use of a pin inside the tubes at the resonate node. The resonate node is the spot on the tube that doesn’t vibrate. The pin eliminates the interference of the string against the tubes. This innovative design provides a longer and clearer resonance. Buy on Line
