What are Solfeggio Frequencies?
Solfeggio Frequencies are a set of specific sound tones believed by many to influence the mind, body, and spirit in powerful ways. From promoting relaxation to supporting emotional healing, these frequencies have gained a lot of popularity in sound therapy and meditation.
Before showing you this set of specific tones, let’s see what is a frequency?
Frequency is a measurement that represents a fundamental property of sound. It is how many vibrations or cycles a sound wave makes per second, which directly creates the pitch we hear.
The unit for frequency is Hertz (hz).
For example, 10hz equals 10 cycles or waves per second, 400hz equals 400 cycles per second.
The higher the frequency, the higher the tone/pitch we hear and vice versa, the perceived tone is lower if the frequency is lower.
A sound cycle consists of one compression and one rarefaction. Multiple cycles per second create a continuous sound.
