Abstract

The objective of my thesis is to understand the scientific basis of ancient shamanic and yogic sound healing techniques. The basic principle of Naturopathic philosophy is that healing happens from top down and in order of spiritual health, mental, emotional and physical health. The healing power of sounds vibrations affect energy centers, chakras also called points of higher consciousness which are associated with particular organ systems. This can explain how sound can be used to cause deep healing within our consciousness which reflects in improved physical and emotional health . Important findings from literature reviews that sound healing techniques can stimulate auricular branches of vagus nerve, synchronization of Right and left hemispheres and cause deep brain relaxation. This explains neurological basis of sound healing.
