Songs have natural healing properties. These don’t only refer to curing the wounds of a broken heart or a bored mind. Professionals have acknowledged the meditation and healing powers of natural tones and chants, treating mental and physical problems.
Have you ever been stuck in heavy traffic and felt yourself getting angrier by the second? Have you been under so much pressure that, at any given moment, you feel yourself losing your wits and lashing out at anybody? Unfortunately, the world is brimming with stressors you are constantly exposed to. Without you noticing, you’re slowly picking these stimuli one by one, gradually filling your threshold until you can’t take it any further. That’s when your system crashes, and you get frustrated.
When you’re under this much stress, how do you calm down?
Some may choose to doze this anger off and sleep their stress away. They find serenity in slumber, shutting everything and everyone out. On the other hand, others plug in their headphones, watch movies or tune in to their favorite songs until the tension subsides. Suddenly, they’re in their world, worrying less about what’s before them, focusing only on the beautiful tune in their ears.
Music as a Companion for Meditation and Healing
Without a doubt, listening to music is one of the most relaxing and entertaining things to do. It’s one of the most popular pastimes when people need the space and time away from their stressful duties and responsibilities. This universal inclination for people to lean into music during stressful times is unsurprising, given that it’s been found that music has numerous medical benefits. Professionals have used it to slow people’s heart rates, thus decreasing their blood pressure. Studies have also found that listening to music for at least 30 minutes can lower people’s anxiety levels.
Hence, beyond making people move and groove, music can naturally soothe and heal people. However, the music that offers this medical effect can be pretty limited since this mainly depends on the tune and beat. For instance, typical pop or rap music might not have this influence on people’s health compared to those meditative tunes people listen to relax.
These tunes for meditation and healing have grown popular these days. Various books talk about the countless benefits people can get from meditation. One is Linda Decoff’s Songs of Eternity Treatments and Meditations on the Word of God. While the book incorporates religious concepts in the discussion of meditation, the author primarily aims to shed light on how listening and tuning to meditative music benefits the human psyche. Linda, along with numerous authors and believers, has acknowledged that while music is music, it can also be healing depending on how its beats and tunes are arranged.
Scientifically-Proven Meditative Tones
On the topic of music as a meditative assistant, the term Solfeggio Frequencies is popular yet might also be foreign to listeners. When people look into meditation music on media platforms, they’re typically led to compilations of instrumental music or other frequencies. Listeners are less likely to discover the Solfeggio Frequencies unless they specifically search for them or look into the benefits of the different hertz frequencies used for meditation and healing.
These Solfeggio Frequencies are specific tunes and sounds that promote people’s mental health. These frequencies are included in the olden six-tone scale incorporating sacred music and beautiful Gregorian chants. All of these elements are established to impart spiritual blessings, balancing energy, the spirit, mind, and body in complete harmony.
Now, many might question how music can influence the human body.
Previous studies have tested and found that music impacts human DNA differently. Scientists measured how much UV light can be observed in the body when each type of music is played. They found that the Gregorian chants absorb the most UV light, providing the most positive and healing effects. This shows that the Solfeggio frequencies have emotional, physical, and mental effects.
