Wand hat IS Sound Healing How Does it Work? by Jill Mattson I have worked in the field, that I feel is best called Sound Healing, for over 30 years. I have seen this endeavor grow dramatically in terms of basic understanding, applications and number of participants. I regularly speak with a broad range of people who are interested in improving their lives with Sound Energy - from experts to novices. I am always excited sharing ideas and information on this dynamic discipline. With these discussions in mind, sometimes I think it is worthwhile to go back to the fundamentals and share what I have learned about Sound Healing… specifically, I find it illuminating to examine what - at the most elemental level - IS Sound Healing and How does it work. Below are some tenets that I have assembled and have come to believe connect some of the dots that are Sound Healing… I deeply know that we are spiritual beings; composed of matter and energy with a divine aspect. Traditional medicine works on our “matter” component… on our physical bodies only. Sound Healing works on all aspects of our being - physical, energetic, emotional, intellectual and spiritual. To gain a glimpse of what we understand of the subject, we must review some important scientific breakthroughs. Science has been catching up with our complex human nature, but there is still a ways to go. Early in the 20th century physicists began to unravel a much better understanding of the universe around us. They (Einstein) proved that matter and energy were essentially the same thing and the famous equation: E=mc2 is known to all. Reflect a moment on how profound this is: Energy & matter are the same - just different forms or states of everything. To help understand this consider something not exactly the same, but analogous: ice and liquid water and steam are all different - but also the same thing - WATER. Our universe and our reality is multi-layered; entwined. Equally amazing, around the same time (early in the 20th century) other physicists formulated the theory

of quantum physics. Some of the consequences of the quantum state reveal that reality is made up of components that all have a “wave” and a “particle” nature. This is more evidence of our complex, multidimensional nature - we are particle-like (like minuscule bits of matter) and we are wave-like (frequency). Further, all energy is frequency and also, all matter is frequency. Quantum physics introduced some other amazing concepts - such as the observer is a critical component in the universe - and that distant particles can be entwined and inseparable - when you act on one particle you instantly impact the other even at great distances - however, we do not need to go into these. Just ponder … we have proof positive that the universe is far, far more than meets the eye. So what does that mean for us? As I said above, traditional medicine (especially western medicine) works only on your physical body. This is effective when you cut your finger and you need a stitch… however, it neglects tremendous possibilities. Frequency IS energy… when you run your microwave you use microwave frequencies to interact with the molecules of the food that you heat. But frequency has vastly more potential. As I said above Sound Energy can work on our physical bodies (you can apply sound energy to the body to soothe sore muscles; you can view inside the body with a sonogram; Sound can lower blood pressure) and it can work on our energetic aspects. We (us in our entirety) are a set of frequencies constantly vibrating, producing critical life support processes (the heart beats with electrical energy; the brain produces brain waves that affect states of consciousness). We need the right frequencies - in the correct quantity - in harmony! Sound Energy can interact with and affect (heal) many body systems… way beyond what you probably suspect. Frequency also affects our mental states and energies (simple examples: remember how music can impact our emotions and our intellect; how powerful can Mozart be … or a scary movie sound track). To repeat: Frequency IS energy. There are nearly an infinite number of frequencies - from very high energy to extremely low energy (X-rays are dangerous;
