I am not writing this blog post. Rather, I’m speaking it using Microsoft Word’s dictation software due to the fact that I recently fractured my arm riding my bicycle. It’s not an ideal situation but it’s better than nothing. Truth be told though, I can’t wait to get back to typing. You would think that I could speak faster than I can type but for some reason I actually think faster while typing. It’s almost as if my hands are an extension of my mind the way an octopus uses its eight arms to complete some tasks or the way a spider offloads some cognition to its webs.
But not all is lost. As of now, I’m slated to be on the shelf for three months. But there may be a way that I can return to action sooner than that. I would just have to pick the right music to listen to. Thanks to the incredible healing powers of certain frequencies.
Relax Melodies explains:
“Solfeggio frequencies refer to specific tones of sound that help with and promote various aspects of body and mind health. These frequencies are reputed to date back to ancient history and said to be the fundamental sounds used in both Western Christianity and Eastern Indian religions, chanted by the Gregorian Monks and in ancient Indian Sanskrit chants.
Physician and researcher, Dr. Joseph Puleo, rediscovered Solfeggio frequencies in the 1970s, bringing their benefits back into public awareness. In his research, he used mathematical numeral reduction to identify six measurable tones that bring the body back into balance and aid in healing.
These Solfeggio frequencies were believed to profoundly affect the conscious and subconscious mind in order to stimulate healing and promote vitality. Thanks to Puleo’s work and the renewed interest, many scientists have since unearthed more evidence supporting the positive effects that these frequencies have on the human body.”
But is there really something to it? Or is it just a bunch of mumbo jumbo #5?
“In 1988, biochemist Dr. Glen Rein made a discovery that confirmed what the ancient spiritual traditions understood when he tested the impact of different music on human DNA.
Rein exposed similar DNA vials to four kinds of music with different frequencies – Gregorian chants, Sanskrit chants, classical, and rock. By measuring the rate of UV light absorption, an essential function of healthy DNA, Rein was able to assess the effects of each type of music. And the results will make you reconsider the type of music you listen to when you want to relax.
The Gregorian and Sanskrit chants had the most positive, even healing, effects by increasing UV light absorption between 5 to 9 percent. The classical music increased UV absorption by small amounts. And rock music decreased UV light absorption, harming the DNA. Rein’s research supported the theory that sound frequencies do produce serious effects, for better or worse, on health and well-being.”
This is mind blowing. Before my injury I would actually listen to rock music while writing as it would help me drown out ambient noises and focus on what I wanted to say. But I can’t do that anymore because the dictation software would start typing the lyrics. So this injury may actually be fortuitous. On the one hand (pun intended) I’ll only have one hand, but on the other hand I’ll now be much healthier overall since I won’t be listening to rock music anymore. And you know what? I kind of like the sound of that.
Are the Solfeggio Frequencies the Greatest Idea Ever?
