In the post-Covid world, many are turning to spirituality. But the roots of sound healing run far deeper from Vedic chants to Tibetan singing bowls, from the pulse of shamanic drums to the natural rhythm of the earth itself.
For some, healing comes by way of medication or therapy. Physical injuries require ointments, pills, or physiotherapy. Emotional wounds take people to counsellors. Beyond these approaches, there exists another ancient method: the art of sound healing, a practice built on vibration and resonance. It is considered one of the oldest forms of healing that humanity has known.

Sound healing has long been in use within the Buddhist monasteries, where certain tones and frequencies are believed to ease emotional and physical distress.
Neuroscience states that certain frequencies guide the brain into alpha and theta states, associated with calm, creativity, and heightened receptivity. These states raise neuroplasticity, helping the brain rebuild connections and break long-standing stress patterns, improving focus. In that sense, sound healing is not just relaxation; it is a scientific process for mental reconditioning.
Explains sound healer Tamojit Gangopadhyay,
According to my personal experience, the vibration of sound reaches the body and mind in ways that medicines often cannot. When I do a session, I don't simply play instruments; every frequency and resonance I use has a specific therapeutic purpose. Each vibration is deliberately directed to calm the nerves, shift the brainwaves into alpha state, or awaken the cells from within.
Sound healing overlaps considerably with music therapy, which is now employed in many hospitals. Sound frequencies are being used for pain management, the easing of anxiety in cancer patients, and the treatment of insomnia. Just as upbeat music energizes workouts or soft melodies help one fall asleep, the intentional use of sound can affect the nervous system.
That makes sound healing suitable for everyone: children, adults, working professionals, homemakers, and even the elderly.
Tamojit adds, "By blending Vedic chants, Tibetan bowls, and modern neuroscience, the therapy I’ve developed has helped many. Some see relief from insomnia within a few sessions, others find their long-term anxiety easing, and in some cases, body pain or skin irritation reduces within minutes of sound resonance."

He says that even ten minutes a day at home can regulate heartbeat, balance hormonal output, and reduce anxiety. If done consistently, this can improve sleep quality, reduce restlessness, and provide lasting emotional stability.
Just as the natural world is full of vibration, so too the human body is a living, breathing instrument of frequency. When the right tones align with the body's rhythm, the mind and body respond together - quietly, safely, and naturally.
