I went down a rabbit hole yesterday. Sound frequencies. Sound waves. How powerful are they? Can listening to a specific tone calm anxiety? Lower blood pressure? Cause anxiousness? Heal? Help you sleep?

Many people believe that music tuned to 432 Hz is warmer and easier to listen to. In fact, if you poke around for even a minute, you’ll find websites and blogs dedicated to convincing you that the music industry is intentionally causing harm by tuning to 440 Hz when music used to use 432 Hz. You see, prior to 1955 there was no standard and different regions and different orchestras played at different frequencies. This made it hard to combine instruments and to collaborate. Then, according to sources on the web, in 1955 the standard was set at 440 Hz to encourage consistency. But, did it ruin the healing effects of music?

Frequencies and their supposed effects are listed below. Move the slider included below to try different frequencies and see for yourself. I’m not totally convinced, but it is interesting and free and fun! If you want to hear another example, here is a video of 432 Hz vs. 440 Hz – see what you think! https://youtu.be/_AuS6sI8HAE?si=ulco6iQ-Z4ubH6Yu
