Sacred Sound: It's All Frequency - Healing Through Sound
On the path of my spiritual awakening, I naturally and always utilized sound.
I remember many Sundays, sitting in church, feeling the vibration of my own vocal cords blending with that of the congregation.
I didn't have conscious awareness, then, that certain tones created certain physical effect. I didn't know that we were, as a group, working "medicine" for healing. I only knew that it lifted me up and brought me great joy. Such great joy, compared to the rest of the service, that I felt for years as if I were being egotistical and missing the point. I would leave church, not caring what the preacher had said but totally transported by the sound.
Now, I have the perspective of realizing that the reason those old gospel hymns have been around so long, and the reason they are such a comfort, has to do with the tones they produce. It has to do with the frequency of them, particularly when all the harmony parts are represented by a group voice.
When I began my work as a healer, I just as naturally found sound being employed to gently vibrate congested areas to a point of release, to flush the auric field, to allow validation of traumatic experience through the sounds of emotional release. It was as spontaneous a choice as breathing. There were tones. There was speaking in tongues. There was primal screaming. There was what I call Cosmic Language. All helped facilitate different aspects of healing within myself and, as a healer, for those with whom I worked.
The reason sound works so phenomenally as a healing tool is that it cannot be resisted by the ego, or personality, self. Nor does the mind have defense against it. It penetrates, and it does the work without analysis and without intellectual understanding.
Speaking of "speaking in tongues," there are at least three ways this happens with me. One is that I will speak in what feels to me a real language, that is a language known on earth and capable of interpretation by anyone from that part of the world.
The second way is that I will speak in what is known to me to be language from other realms, like the angelic realm or the extraterrestrial realm.
The third way this gift of speech is employed is what I call Cosmic Language, which refers to a conglomeration of different languages. This is a very, very strong acceleration for the session in which it occurs, because it involves integration of past lives for the person who is receiving the healing. Perhaps they were oriental in one life, Native in the next, African in the third. There is sometimes a thread of imbalance which continues through more than one lifetime and this kind of "Cosmic Language" addresses whichever lives are threaded together in the patterns that need release or healing.
Many times, when I speak in tongues during a healing session, the other person will answer me. We have a conversation. It is a healing conversation where things that needed to be said at some past point, are communicated.
Tones are also very significant in the work Spirit does through me. Some vibrational tones break apart congestion and may feel annoying or even slightly painful. Others clear the congestion that has been broken loose, and generally feel uplifting. Still others open, expand, or balance specific chakras and/or transmit data to the person from other realms.
Primal screaming, crying, wailing, etc. have also been vital to the process which Spirit uses in the sessions I share. I have been told by another healer that, were I able to balance myself better, this kind of empathic release would not be necessary. They say I'd be able to transmute the trauma without the physical manifestation. I have prayed about this and what I know is that we are living in physical form.
To respect our own physicality, we sometimes need to heal through it. For many, the physical expression of emotional release allows the body to let go of it. I believe it to be vital at certain stages and for certain people, particularly those who have been abused as children. This is my knowing. Others may feel as they wish and make their decisions based on their own awareness.
I was also shown that, as early as 1997, there would be those who began to channel pure sound for healing. I know this to be a tremendous gift. If you are one of those so-called, thank you.
