In my years of practicing sound therapy, I've seen first-hand the remarkable effects of Solfeggio frequencies when using tuning forks on my yoga and Reiki clients. Often, these Solfeggio frequencies elicit profound physiological and emotional responses. One of the most striking reactions to Solfeggio frequencies I observe often (in about half of clients) is an involuntary reflex of fluttering the eyelids with the tuning forks’ vibration. Clients consistently report feeling an overwhelming sense of peace and calm after their sessions with these healing frequencies.

Curious about these powerful reactions? Let's dive into what Solfeggio frequencies are, how they work and how you can explore Solfeggio frequencies for your own healing and relaxation.

What Are Solfeggio Frequencies?

Solfeggio frequencies are a set of specific tones used as sound therapy to promote energetic healing. Each Solfeggio frequency resonates with energy centers, or “chakras” in the body, helping to balance and align us physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

These healing frequencies can be experienced through various sound healing practices, such as listening to music tuned to these tones, using tuning forks or participating in sound baths.

Solfeggio Scale: Hz for Healing

What does Hz stand for? In sound healing, "Hz" stands for hertz, which is a unit of measurement for the frequency of sound waves. It measures the number of cycles per second of a sound wave. For example, a frequency of 528Hz means the sound wave completes 528 cycles in one second. Different frequencies are associated with various effects on the body and mind as our bodies sense this vibration, making Hz a crucial part of sound healing practices.

Where Did Solfeggio Hz Frequencies Come From?

In 11th century Italy, music theorist Guido of Arezzo invented a notational system derived from the Latin hymn to John the Baptist, "Ut queant laxis.” Arezzo introduced a set of six tones that follow the hexacord derived from the first stanza of the hymn: UT, RE, MI, FA, SO, LA. These tones were foundational in Gregorian chants, which used these specific frequencies to create music that evokes a spiritual response. The Gregorian chants’ use of these tones reflects how sound frequencies were deeply respected for their spiritual properties. Even today, Solfeggio frequencies have withstood the test of time as sound healers use tuning forks and other instruments to create these healing vibrations.

Solfeggio Sound Frequencies

Solfeggio sound healing frequencies work to stimulate the chakras, the body's energy centers. Each specific frequency in hz resonates with a particular chakra of the body, helping to balance and align vital life force energy. By tuning into these frequencies, you can experience healing, emotional release and spiritual growth.

Here is a list of the Solfeggio healing frequencies for all of the Chakras:

396Hz - UT - Root Chakra

Listening to 396Hz can promote healing of the root chakra, which is essential for grounding and emotional release. This frequency helps to liberate feelings of guilt, fear and grief, enabling you to let go of past traumas and deep emotional blockages. By tuning into 396Hz, you can experience a deeper sense of security and stability, offering a solid foundation for personal growth and wellbeing.

417Hz - RE - Sacral Chakra

Listening to 417Hz promotes healing of the sacral chakra. It helps us let go of old patterns and negative situations and call in positive changes. This frequency connects to our creativity and helps us in manifesting our desires. This frequency also can stimulate our sexual energy and reproductive health.

528Hz - MI - Solar Plexus Chakra and Heart Chakra

Listening to 528Hz can promote healing of the solar plexus chakra, which is enhances personal power and transformation. This hz frequency is known for its transformative effects and ability to facilitate DNA repair, helping to restore and rejuvenate on a cellular level. By tuning into 528Hz, you can experience a deeper sense of inner power.

528Hz is also considered by some to be the "love frequency,” also healing for heart chakra. In the heart chakra, the love frequency facilitates emotional healing, DNA repair and offers a sense of overwhelming divine love. The Love Frequency is a popular choice in sound healing practices aimed at fostering deep healing or trauma and positive transformation. Listening to music or sounds tuned to 528Hz can help create a nurturing environment for emotional balance and improve the flow of energy in the solar plexus and heart chakras.

Listening to 741Hz can promote healing of the throat chakra, which is essential for clear communication and self-expression. Th 741Hz frequency promotes problem-solving and emotional stability, and helps to clear away negative self-talk and obsessive thoughts.

852Hz - LA - Third Eye Chakra

Listening to 852Hz can promote healing of the third eye chakra, which is the chakra for intuition and spiritual insight. This Hz frequency awakens inner wisdom and enhances the ability to perceive higher truths, helping to deepen your spiritual connection. By tuning into 852Hz, you can experience a heightened sense of imagination, intuition and clarity.

963Hz - Crown Chakra - The God Frequency

All of these Hz frequencies can be reduced to the sum of the numbers 3, 6, and 9, which Nikola Tesla famously regarded as key to understanding the divine, creative power and the energy fields of the physical world. So the 963hz frequency, or “God Frequency,” stimulates the crown chakra for spiritual connection.

432Hz is a natural frequency often associated with calmness and harmony in the universe. Many people find that listening to music tuned to this frequency promotes relaxation, reduces stress and balances your energy, making it an ideal frequency for meditation and sound healing instruments, such as crystal bowls.

You don’t need to understand complex musical theory or be able to distinguish the vibrational nuances between Hz frequencies to enjoy healing benefits of Solfeggio frequencies. You simply need to relax and listen to the healing tones.

Tips For Healing With Solfeggio Frequencies

Set Aside Ample Time For Your Session. There is no right or wrong amount of time as long as you can remain relaxed and comfortable and in a state for receiving the healing benefits. I suggest starting with 10-20 minutes for beginners and gradually increasing your sessions to 30-60 minutes as you become more comfortable.
Find A Comfortable, Quiet Place. Choose a peaceful spot where you won't be disturbed. You will want space to sit comfortably or lie down and relax. Prepare the space with any pillows or blankets you might need to be comfortable.
Choose Your Listening Device. You may want to use headphones to help focus the frequencies and block out surrounding noises. If you are listening to a speaker, try to listen to two speakers in stereo so that you can benefit from exploring binaural beats. Whatever the device, choose a low to moderate volume that allows you to hear the relax.
Select A Frequency. You can find a wide selection of Solfeggio Hz frequencies to listen to online. I recommend the Aura Health app for thousands of healing tracks. Select the Solfeggio hz frequency that intuitively sounds good to you. The goal is to listen to music and tones that are soothing and peaceful.

Try Solfeggio Frequencies For Healing, Relaxation And Sleep

Let listening to Solfeggio frequencies be an effortless experience. Simply be present with the sound vibrations as they flow over you and help you unwind. Keep in mind these tones are relaxing, so it's best not to listen to Solfeggio frequencies while performing tasks that require your full attention. However, you can choose to listen to the tracks while sleeping, allowing the vibrations to permeate your subconscious.

Solfeggio frequencies can greatly enhance relaxation and improve sleep quality. Exploring Solfeggio frequencies on the Aura app can be a peaceful way to reduce stress, improve your mood or facilitate deep emotional healing.
