Powerful Silence Powerful Sound

Sound And Silent Frequencies Can Stimulate Healing and Increase Learning Potential





"Wow...!"  I exclaimed in a rattled whisper.  

"Do you hear that?"  I asked my friend Jeremy.

"No.  I don't think so."  He replied.  "What is it?"  

"Silence"  I answered.  

We were on a hike through the Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge just south of Cheney, Washington.  

I was 31 years old and it occurred to me it was the first time I had really heard real, for real silence.  

"It's deafening," I said.  

He laughed in agreement.  

Powerful silence






It was around this time that I realized how affected we are by sound.  

I have always had a love, passion even, for music, but the vast ways its sound can turn our days and nights around never really crossed my mind until then.  

It can make or break us.  

Some sounds make us tense.  

While others soothe us.  

Some can even put us to sleep!


Not long after the powerful sound vacuum experience in Turnbull, I started experiencing chronic pain.  

I went through years of physical therapy and landed in a pain management situation to be told to sit still and breathe, basically. 

I was extremely frustrated.

I have been into and out of a yoga practice for years.  

So, I have known about chakra balancing.  

I started messing around with and listening to different frequency videos online and found a really cool YouTube channel that I really enjoy.  

Overtime, I put together this chakra balancing playlist that has helped me tremendously.  

It is something I have been starting when I fall asleep for a while. 

Because of the duration of the videos I haven't been quite able to get all the way to the crown chakra and have been dealing with jaw related pain for a while.  

If you don't know about chakra alignment, you have to line up each lower chakra, starting from your root, for energy to move easily up to the next chakra, all the way out through the crown.  

On the way to the dentist one day recently I listened to the crown chakra frequency video at a consistent 485 hz. 

(I took transit that day.  I do not recommend driving while listening to these frequencies.  They can be hypnotic.)  

I had amazing sensations of pain and tension breaking up and leaving my body through my crown.  

Until this moment, my time spent with the playlist, ideally, might have moved some energy up through my body, but had gotten stuck somewhere around my throat or third-eye chakra.  

The vast majority of pain I have been experiencing has been in my jaw, neck, and shoulder. 

All of the areas are considered to be within the higher chakras.

These chakras, like I mentioned, are the final chakras through which energy passes.

It really felt like the pain had slightly dissolved and gone out of my body through the crown of my head.  

It was momentarily gone.

I mentioned all this to my dentist once I got there.  

He found it fascinating and brought up an incident where I was in extreme pain from a high frequency caused by an instrument he had used while working on my teeth in the past.  

It wasn't the instrument or what he was doing that caused the pain.  

It seemed to be the sound frequency created by the instrument hitting my tooth, and according to Psychology Today, sound could stimulate touch fibers that affect pain perception. 

Man did it hurt!!!


I have spent a lot of time over the years since the day in Cheney studying, in a sense, different sounds that are comforting to me.  

Here is that playlist I have put together and amended over the years.  I really like this YouTube channel.  

I hope you enjoy the playlist and find it useful.




As I mentioned before, I had not realized the vast ways that sound can have an affect on us.  

It can even take hold on our ability to learn.  

Studies approved by Michigan State University showed that sounds including traffic noise can be distracting and have a negative impact on children’s memory and reading level.  

Isn't that interesting?


Another study done at Stanford University proved that hearing pleasing sounds helps develop skills more easily.  

For example, hearing the sound of the letters C, A, and T helped children develop the skill to spell the word cat more quickly than just learning the word cat by itself.  

The sounds made by pronouncing each of the letters individually seemed to be more pleasing during the study than the hard, harsh-seeming, consonant sounds created by pronouncing the word, fully.


There is some evidence that listening to music with loud bass could cause our bodies to get to high levels of excitement.  

If you have ever been to a football game where heavy bass music is played right before the team comes out, you know what I mean.  

The bass causes the players and the fans to get pumped for a more energetic experience during the game.

High levels of excitement, physiologically, are the same as high levels of anxiety, however.  

I guess who you are determines how you are affected by this.  


There is an interesting product called  Genius Wave that has been endorsed by Stanford.  

I am trying it myself and can tell you the results so far are noticeable.  

I am more alert. 

 I think more clearly.  

I seem to require less sleep.  

It is astounding!

During a 3,000 day NASA study performed on a set of children with Genius Wave, scientists found that 98% of them performed at genius levels.

That is astounding!


Sound and silence are extraordinary.  

They can cause great stress, or put our minds at complete ease.

They can help us perform at extremely high levels, or they can create our detriment.    

There is power in silence in a world full of noise, as said by Thich Nhat Hanh.  

Powerful Silence Powerful Sound

Namaste
