In this article, I’ll discuss Brain Wave States, the History of Tuning Forks and the method I use.
Brain wave states are based on cycles per second or hertz system. So for Example; 174hz moves at 174 cycles per second!
5 BRAIN WAVE STATES; GAMMA, BETA, ALPHA, THETA, DELTA
GAMMA: This is very alert state of awareness, high Brain Wave activity, ranges from 30hz+(great for driving or classes)
BETA: This is the awake state of awareness, ranging from
14 to 30hz
ALPHA: This is the between state of awareness, the external and internal worlds, ranging from 8 to 13hz. One feels very light, but still cognizant of the external world.
THETA: This is the state of visions and dreams. We have no cognizance of the external world, and ranges from 4 to 8hz
DELTA: It is associated with deep sleep ranging from .5 to 4hz. And here there’s a lack of conscious awareness. People in comas are said to range at less than .5hz. So Brain waves states can be measured!
Now An electro-encef-al-ogram (EEG) is a test that measures and records electrical activity in the brain. Humans can hear sound at frequencies from about 20hz to 20,000hz, though we hear sounds best from 1,000hz to 5,000hz. So this work is physics, you don’t have to believe in it to work, it just does.
HISTORY OF WHERE TUNING FORKS ORIGINATED
Tuning Forks actually originated in the early 1500’s but it wasn’t until 1711, Royal trumpeter & luteist (which is a tiny guitar) from England, John Shore; created the first tuning fork based on German Physician Schelhammer’s discovery using a common cutlery fork. It was made of steel and had a pitch of 423.5hz. (And they do look a like pitch forks, and haven’t changed since then).
BRAIN WAVE CHART
This Brain Wave Activity Chart, shows Brain Wave activity from Gamma Waves to Delta Waves. Gamma being high-speed waves close together, An individual is very alert & has high concentration. Delta, being very low speed waves, appearing more elongated, represents a lack of conscious awareness. People in comas are said to range from less than .5 hz. So when we use Tuning Forks (or crystal bowls) it actually brings a person to Alpha State. They may feel Light, Relaxed, Mellow. So we are actually “listening” for the pitch change while working in the Biofield (aura). This tells us there’s in-coherence or stuck energy in the field OR static noise the body doesn’t recognize. Once we introduce a tuning fork, the body recognizes the distinction and goes to action to help balance and recalibrate itself.
THE USE OF FORKS
There are two types; weighted and unweighted.
Weighted forks we use on the physical body. Very helpful for muscle Knots in Neck and Shoulders, Lower Back pain and Sciatic Nerve discomfort. I have had a lot of success in these difficult areas. Unweighted forks these we concentrate on the Biofield or the Aura around the body. This area is a little tricky. The field of energy around the body has a compartmentalized membrane that has encoded memory, like a backup file on a computer. The information stored in this area is the same for everyone, Male or Female, it’s the Timeline that differs.
For instance, the emotion of sadness, grief and loss is stored on the left side of the Heart in varying stages of life, depending on when something took place for the individual and is not limited to just death information. It can simply be great sadness or grief endured. Like the loss of a job, a divorce, a move across country etc… So when we start a Biofield Tuning session, we start at the 5foot edge away from the body. That being the birth line and comb through the field toward the body with the fork, that being the journey of life. Ending at the physical body, is present day.
So in this field of energy around us, we can create static energy from challenges, stress and traumas we experience during the course of life that remains stuck and out of sync. And at times, these can become heavy, forcing our organs to work harder or even become ill, if out of sync for extended time….So in the Biofield, the forks will balance the nervous system, improve energy flow, bringing balance by removing static and in-coherence to entrainment and heighten our spiritual connection.
Science and Holistic Alternatives are catching up! In the last several decades they were used to tune musical instruments, but because they generate such strong vibrations, they were also adopted by Healers, Massage Therapists, Chiropractors etc…
