It’s Elemental, My Friend
Let’s retrace our steps back to science class in high school. Remember the periodic table of elements.
That table is the basis of understanding the formation of matter.
What’s truly amazing is that the periodic table resembles the overtone series in music. When you sing or play any note a series of overtones are created.
Here’s an example. If you play the note C, the middle C in the piano, it will vibrate at 256 hz. That’s the note you’ll hear foremost. However, when that note vibrates at 256 times a second many other notes besides the fundamental C tone are also sounding. These are the overtones.
Now let’s bring in Barbara Hero. She demonstrated the powerful effects of positive and negative frequencies by using the harmonic series.
Hero placed a mirror under a speaker system which vibrated the mirror when two different frequencies, or notes, were created. Then she projected a laser at the mirror. This laser was reflected onto a screen and created an image for each sound.
Those intervals – two frequencies – which were created by the harmonic series created shapes which were GEOMETRICALLY PERFECT. Also, these shapes, such as a circle, remained stationary for as long as the intervals were sounding.
Intervals which weren’t harmonically related created shapes that were not geometrically perfect AND their shapes decayed while the sounds were sounding.
Now you can see why how sounds are put together is critical. Just two notes, played or sung at the same time, either create harmony or disharmony. Music truly reflects our state of being. Changing to positive music is like changing to a healthy, nutritious diet. Your cells respond to both wonderfully.
Whether you’re lying in the sun, lounging on a hammock, or in your home, charge up your mind and body with some delicious sounds - it’s your instant relaxation recipe for life.
Warm Regards,

P.S. As you know, the vibrations of harmonic sounds create shapes. Try putting sand on a metal or glass plate and stroking the edge of the plate with a violin bow. Then watch the vibrating sand patterns take on amazing shapes. It’s a fun way to see a ‘live’ demonstration of the power of sound. Go hear to read more here.
