    344: Heal Your Chronic Stress With the Power of Sound

    In this episode of the Ancient Health Podcast, Dr. Chris Motley explores the profound effects of sound on the body and mind. He discusses how sound can be both beneficial and detrimental to health, the mechanisms behind sound therapy, and various techniques such as tuning forks, binaural beats, and gong baths. The conversation delves into the role of the pineal gland in spiritual connection and the importance of music in healing. Dr. Motley emphasizes the need to be mindful of the sounds we expose ourselves to and how sound therapy can be a powerful tool for wellness. Research Shows This Works!  2017 study of Tibetan singing bowl meditation found stress and depression-reducing benefits (Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine https://doi.org/10.1177/2156587216668109) This study found low-frequency sound stimulation helped people with fibromyalgia sleep better and feel less pain (10.1155/2015/375174). Takeaways Sound can affect the body positively and negatively. The body records sensory experiences in the subconscious mind. Traumatic sounds can trigger fight or flight responses. Sound therapy can aid in healing chronic pain and stress. The pineal gland is sensitive to sound frequencies. Tuning forks can help heal specific areas of the body. Binaural beats synchronize brain activity for relaxation. Gong baths can create a calming atmosphere. Music has the power to heal and uplift the spirit. Sound therapy can enhance overall wellness and emotional health.

    342: Release Trapped Emotions with EFT

    What is EFT Tapping and how can it help you? Join Dr. Motley as he unpacks how Emotional Freedom Technique works for releasing emotions today on the Ancient Health Podcast. Our bodies store trauma which can cause all kinds of issues with our health and wellbeing. Tapping is a powerful therapeutic technique that can be used at home on yourself and even your pets!  #EFT #Tapping #biofield #frequency medicine #german new medicine Takeaways Trauma can be stored in the body and brain, affecting physical health. Emotions can trigger biochemical changes that influence behavior. The body records emotional trauma through sensory experiences. Each organ is associated with specific emotions, such as grief and anger. EFT tapping can help process and release deep-seated emotions. Integrating EFT with other therapies enhances emotional healing. Homeopathic remedies can support emotional release during EFT. The meridian system plays a crucial role in energy flow and emotional health. Regular practice of EFT can create new neural pathways for healing. More resources:  What is EFT Tapping?
