Golden Mean Music
Golden Mean music can evoke a human brain wave response of the deepest possible awareness, namely delta waves, which have been electronically measured at 1 - 3 Hertz (Hz), or cycles per second. The 1 Hz. frequency response gives us a feeling of bliss, the bliss of dreamless sleep, that enables us to make positive changes in our lives. Delta Wave Press endeavors to publish and promote Golden Mean Music, the name given to 1 Hz. music by Joan Cobb, who is able to muscle test the frequency of her brain wave responses to the music she hears. This music is capable of releasing the stress that causes most diseases, promoting healing in the listener.
For 250 years people have been healed, and made better students, by listening to Mozart’s music. According to Joan’s muscle testing, about half of Mozart’s compositions are Golden Mean music, including most of his slow movements, his string quartets, and his last three operas and symphonies. His Golden Mean music is perfectly balanced between yin and yang (feminine and masculine) energy, the spatial and linear brain hemispheres, the heart and brain, allowing us to be totally present in the NOW, detached from the negative emotions that cause most illness. All of Mozart’s music is healing on some level, but his Golden Mean music is the most profound, bringing listeners to a state of perfect balance and harmony.
Other composers have written Golden Mean music, but not nearly as much as the prolific Mozart. There are many beautiful folk songs, spirituals, religious chants and some pop music, as well as instrumental solo and orchestral works that evoke a similar brain wave response. The sounds of song birds greeting the new day with joyful praise, of whales singing, of a crackling fire burning in a fireplace, of a purring cat -- all these are similar to Mozart’s Golden Mean music, bringing us peace and wellness.
Most music is either tolerable or nurturing on some level, but ugly, violent music can be stressful and energy draining, as in heavy metal rock. The anapestic rhythm of rock, with its accent on the 2nd and 4th beat of a 4-beat measure, goes against the triple (3-beat) rhythm of the heart. This tends to confuse the listener’s body/brain. Some doctors warn their heart patients to avoid listening to rock. The great popularity of rock over the last 50 years may contribute to the tremendous increase of children with ADD and other symptoms of the autism spectrum.
