Sound Touches Every Cell in Our Body
Sound is a type of energy. If we accept that sound is vibration and we know that vibration touches every part of our physical being, then we understand that sound is heard not only through our ears but through every cell in our bodies.”– Integrative Oncologist Dr Mitchell Gaynor
Sound Is All Around
Mozart Effect
The most talked about sound in the 1990’s is the “Mozart Effect” to be believed to enhance intelligence. You can read reams of studies and reports. You may agree or disagree with the findings. But, what about STRESS and how it produces cortizol in the body. (Cortisol is a stress hormone released by the adrenal glands). Mozart is the most relaxing sounds of classical composers. If listening to Mozart makes you relax, then cortizol production must be effected. No stress, no cortisol. You can even go so far to say less heart attacks.
After an evening of classical music, my body is still vibrating with sounds the next morning (and I’m happy). My computer classes had 80% students that took some sort of music lessons in their youth. No studies were made of that correlation. I know this because one day, our teacher asked us out of the blue, ” Show of hands. Who in here took music lessons as a child?” Only 3 students were not musically trained.
True Fact
The physical brain develops differently when a child studies music. Better problem solvers. No ADHD children. All the energy is transferred to the instrument.
In Conclusion
Yes, if you are feeling a bit down, bored or thinking negative thoughts, then put on Mozart or an equivalent, do some stretches or get on the bike or run. Clean the kitchen and listen to Ludwig or Wolfgang. Whatever it takes.
