The body is listening to its environment - and communicating back to the mind, feeding it data to which the mind responds.
Not just what it picks up on the outside, but what it’s tuning into on the inside, too.
Which means: the body is influencing our thoughts… and therefore, our beliefs.
So if we find ourselves stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, unfocused, or stuck in overthinking - it’s time to get into the body and ask what it’s calling for.
To move.
To release.
To rest.
To connect.
The more we intentionally make that connection with the body, the clearer the communication channel becomes with the mind - leading to clarity, peace of mind, presence, and relief.
That’s exactly what we’re doing when we come together and play.
As kids, we were much more connected to our bodies - we expressed what needed expressing, in the moment.
But over time, we’ve been conditioned to think purely in terms of logic, rather than feeling.
Yet our thinking is being shaped by a dysregulated body…
So how logical is it, really?
And this line from the post I’m sharing stuck with me: “Soon we may use sound as medicine.”
If our cells can hear and respond, then through the practice of using sound as prayer, we can heal the body - and therefore the mind - through the intention we’re communicating.
Sound as medicine isn’t new technology.
It’s ancient.
Our ancestors knew it, lived it, drummed it.
It’s our over-logical minds that expect healing to come in the form of a device, or a pill, or a potion.
But maybe it’s as simple as playing the drum. 🤔

In a surprising breakthrough, scientists have discovered that human cells can actually hear sound and respond to it. Research shows that certain cells detect vibrations and convert them into biological signals, influencing their behaviour and function.
This groundbreaking finding challenges previous assumptions that cells operate independently of auditory cues, revealing a previously unknown layer of communication within the body. Cells exposed to specific sound frequencies demonstrated changes in gene expression, growth patterns, and even signalling pathways, suggesting sound could one day be used to influence health at a cellular level.
The discovery opens exciting possibilities for medicine and biotechnology. Future therapies could harness sound waves to promote healing, improve cellular function, or even target diseases with unprecedented precision. Scientists are now exploring how different types of sound affect various cell types and how this knowledge could lead to non-invasive treatments.
Understanding that our cells can “hear” may revolutionise the way we approach health and disease, offering innovative tools for therapies and preventive medicine. The human body may be more attuned to its environment than we ever imagined.
