While on my spiritual journey, I find myself listening to music everywhere I go. But did not fully understand why? Why does music make me feel so good? Why does music make me feel better? Metaphysically and spiritually are we able to raise our vibrations simply by listening to music? Is this made up or is it in fact true? There is something to be said about music as a powerful tool inorder to raise one’s vibration due to the ability to influence emotions, energy and the entire state of being. Which by the way, I do all the time as a hypnotherapist with my clients just not with music! Everything in the universe, including our bodies, have a specific vibration and frequency. Music especially, is composed with specific frequencies and intentions therefore we can resonate with these frequencies. The intention behind the creation and performance of music can significantly impact its vibrational quality whether it be positive or negative. Music created with positive intentions, such as love, healing, or compassion, carries that energy within it like anything else; intention is everything! When individuals listen to or engage with such music, they can absorb these intentions, these powerful emotions, leading to an elevation of their own vibration. This resonance is believed to positively impact the energetic balance of the body, mind, and spirit. There is a science to it! Although I don’t want to bore my readers, I do want to speak about why this happens without having to go in depth in the science leading up to it. 
Music has the remarkable ability to serve as a gateway to our memories, evoking powerful emotions and shaping our behaviors in profound ways. The melodies, rhythms, and lyrics of music can transport us back in time, triggering memories associated with specific experiences, people, and emotions. By tapping into this reservoir of memories, music has the potential to influence our mood, mindset, and even our physiological responses. Harnessing the positive impact of music in our daily lives offers a valuable opportunity for self-care and emotional well-being. Unconsciously, we embark on a musical journey each day, with the potential for profound emotional release and catharsis. This release of pent-up emotions, whether joy, sadness, or nostalgia, can be immensely therapeutic, allowing us to process and heal from past experiences. In turn, this emotional release contributes to a sense of lightness, clarity, and energetic renewal, raising our vibrational frequency and enhancing our overall sense of vitality and well-being. By integrating music into our daily routines with intention and mindfulness, we can harness its transformative power to cultivate greater emotional resilience, inner peace, and spiritual growth.
As a Reiki Master, my primary aim in utilizing this healing modality is to clear blockages from the body and realign the Chakras. It is widely believed that certain types of music, crafted with specific tones and rhythms, are tailored to assist in the balancing of the Chakras as well. This explains my preference for incorporating “Reiki Music” into my practice while working with clients; it naturally promotes alignment and facilitates healing at elevated states of consciousness. Across various spiritual traditions, music serves as a conduit for connecting with higher realms. Whether through chanting, sacred hymns, or meditative sounds, music acts as a bridge to the spiritual realm, aiding in the elevation of one’s vibration. This affinity for utilizing music in healing work certainly makes the process more seamless and effective, allowing me to facilitate a deeper healing with greater ease and efficiency.
Anything that boosts interconnectedness between our physical bodies and mental states is ideal in overall wellbeing and can contribute to the raise in one’s vibrational frequency. Music has the ability to synchronize with brainwave patterns and influence the autonomic nervous system. It’s called “entrainment.” By doing so, it can induce relaxation, reduce stress, and promote a sense of calm. It can even help us focus and shift to a higher vibrational state. Have you ever realized or felt that your heart rate lowers as well when listening to music? Any kind that resonates, speaks to you, that you are attracted to. Like a bike, the more you do it, the more you become attuned to the signals and sensations of our bodies. We can better understand and address our mental and emotional needs, leading to greater balance and harmony once attuned.
Music possesses a profound ability to influence and elevate our moods instantly, serving as a powerful tool for emotional regulation and well-being. When we listen to upbeat and harmonious melodies, our brains respond by releasing neurotransmitters such as dopamine, often referred to as the ‘feel-good’ neurotransmitter. This surge of dopamine not only enhances our sense of pleasure and reward but also uplifts our mood, fostering feelings of joy, optimism, and vitality. As our mood elevates in response to music, we naturally gravitate towards a more positive and expansive emotional state. This shift in mood towards positivity and optimism contributes to a higher vibrational frequency, aligning us with states of love, gratitude, and abundance. By consciously selecting and engaging with music that resonates with our emotions and intentions, we can harness its transformative power to cultivate a harmonious inner landscape and elevate our vibrational frequency, thereby enhancing our overall well-being and spiritual growth.
Engaging with music for personal expression and growth is paramount. The therapeutic benefits of creative endeavors, such as singing with music, cannot be overstated. These activities serve as potent tools for releasing stress and cultivating a profound sense of well-being. Singing, in particular, has been a source of solace and rejuvenation for many individuals, myself included. The act of singing at the top of one’s lungs, with unbridled passion, offers a cathartic release unlike any other. It’s a form of self-care that allows us to tap into our innermost emotions and express them freely. Incorporating such practices into daily routines, such as singing in the shower, can have transformative effects on our overall state of being. By harnessing the power of music to raise energetic vibrations, we enhance our vitality, deepening our sense of happiness and joy. It’s a simple yet profound act that nourishes the soul and enriches our lived experience, fostering greater resilience and fulfillment in life.
