Sound has been used throughout history to awaken, enhance and attune each Chakra, in many cultures. Because each chakra is vibrational in nature, and resonates at different frequencies, there are specific ‘seed sounds’, chants, and pitches used for these purposes.
One of the most popular systems of sound healing therapies is the use of specific pitches to awaken or attune, each Chakra. The modern Western system of music is actually based upon ancient derivatives of sound and pitch in alignment with what the ancients called the ‘Universal Harmonies.’ It was common understanding that differing frequencies, pitches, and harmonies, can provide different qualities of healing, as well as the opposite!
These levels of understanding can take decades to truly comprehend and integrate into our own ‘knowing. So, we will not go too deeply into it here.
Sound healing was enjoyed long ago by the ancient Greeks where they used sound baths as a form of medicine to treat many ailments. The waves of sound are said to calm the nervous system and balance the subtle body.
(The subtle body refers to energy that vibrates throughout the innermost layers of the body, beyond what we typically only physically conceive of the human body).
In addition to balancing the subtle body, this holistic practice of sound healing is also known to help with stress relief, insomnia, anxiety, chronic pain and even depression.
