We are all vibration. Our emotions, our spirits, our thoughts, and our bodies all hold unique frequencies. We function in harmonic balance — and sound resonates through our existence on a spiritual and physical level.
By now, you’ve probably heard the terms ‘sound healing’ or ‘solfeggio frequency’ thrown around. But what are these frequencies, and how do they work their magic? Let’s put on our headphones and dive into the musical world of healing with solfeggio frequencies!
What are Solfeggio Frequencies?
Solfeggio frequencies are specific tones that promote the healing of the mind, body, and soul. These tones were developed from a musical scale, dating as far back as 1000 AD. Scientific research and ancient spiritual practice both show that sound vibrations have deep healing power. They have the ability to attune your energetic and physical bodies to greater wholeness, wellness, and well-being!
You can bring the magic of healing frequencies into your practice in many ways. Play a sound bowl, tuning forks, rain sticks, or other musical instruments tuned to a solfeggio frequency. You can work with them during any sound therapy session or as you go about your day.
YouTube is also a great resource. Simply type in the frequency you’d like to work with. You’ll have lots of options to choose from for an immersive sound bath!
The Science Behind Sound Healing
In the 1970s, working with solfeggio frequencies made a resurgence. Dr. Joseph Puleo, a physician and researcher, was able to use mathematical numeral reduction to find measurable frequencies.
We can find these frequencies, or tones, throughout the planet and our own bodies. When played, the power of sound has an incredible positive effect on stress levels, brain waves, tension, aches and pains, and overall well-being.
The Solfeggio Frequencies & Their Benefits
174 Hz
174 Hz is the lowest tone on the solfeggio scale. It connects you to the core of the planet — the energy that comes from below the Earth Star Chakra.
This healing frequency is excellent to work with if you’re experiencing pain. It works like a natural anesthesia, relieving emotional and physical discomfort. Additionally, 174 Hz is useful for increasing focus and concentration.
285 Hz
285 Hz resonates with the Earth Star Chakra, the energy center that lies right under your feet. This frequency is incredibly grounding, leaving your body feeling rejuvenated and energized. In fact, it helps regenerate cells and restore tissue! Listen to 285 Hz when you’re in need of an energetic pick-me-up — it brings that feel-good restorative energy.
396 Hz
369 Hz is a sound healing frequency of the Root Chakra, your core of stability and feelings of safety. Listening to this frequency liberates you from feelings of fear or guilt. This tone helps you get out of fight-or-flight mode and some studies suggest it lowers blood pressure. It’s a fantastic tool to move through obstacles and brings you back to center in the present moment.
417 Hz
417 Hz activates the Sacral Chakra, which is your center of sensuality, passion, and creativity. This healing frequency opens doors to personal improvement and brings about positive transformation. At the same time, 417 Hz helps diminish the effects of traumatic experiences and regulate the nervous system. When you need a boost of energy, whether in or out of the bedroom, play this frequency.
432 Hz
432 Hz is the original sonic frequency. Historically, musicians tuned all instruments to this Hz for the most loving, affecting sound. We can find the number 432 repeated within our physical form, throughout the world, and across the universe. Thus, it aligns and opens all of the chakras.
We know 432 HZ as the ‘God Frequency.’ It activates your entire field, from the planetary core to the star gateways.
528 Hz
528 Hz is a Solar Plexus Chakra frequency that invokes the human will to survive. It’s the ‘musical, mathematical matrix of creation’ — a frequency of pure love.
This Hz frequency brings about notable change to your body and mind. It does this by returning DNA to its original, perfect state. If you want to activate your imagination, intuition, and creativity, 528 Hz will guide you toward your highest good.
639 Hz
639 Hz resonates with the Heart Chakra, your center of love and compassion. Listening to this sound healing frequency is rejuvenating on a cellular level.
It enhances your levels of understanding, tolerance, love, and communication. In turn, it encourages creating harmonious relationships in your everyday life. To live life from the heart, start your day with this frequency.
741 Hz
741 Hz primarily helps you solve problems — of any nature — with grace and clarity. This is a Throat Chakra healing frequency. It will help you lean into the power of self-expression, which results in stability and peace.
It’s also incredibly clarifying, even helping cleanse your cells of electromagnetic radiation. If you spend time every day on your phone or computer (which is most of us), listen to 741 Hz.
852 Hz
852 Hz activates the Third Eye Chakra, awakening intuition and unveiling the world that exists beyond our human eyes. This sound healing frequency raises awareness, enhancing your inner vision and opening a channel of communication with Spirit. It’s great for light workers, reiki practitioners, and other healers because it helps you see the hidden needs of others.
963 Hz
963 Hz is a healing frequency of connection that decalcifies and activates the pineal gland. It resonates with the Crown Chakra, your direct link to Source and the higher realms. Listening to this sound healing frequency reminds you that you are not separate from Source. It connects you to Spirit and awakens you to Oneness — our true universal nature.
