19 - Purring, Humming and the Healing Frequency

In this gentle yet fascinating episode, Margaret explores one of the simplest and oldest healing tools we carry within us - our own sound.Inspired by a quiet moment with her cat, she dives into the remarkable connection between human humming, feline purring and the vibrational frequencies that calm the nervous system, soothe the heart and help the body repair itself.You’ll hear how humming activates the parasympathetic nervous system, widens blood vessels, boosts oxygen flow and resets the brain. Margaret draws on her experience with Reiki and Karuna healing, where chanting and toning are used to shift energy and support emotional release, and she uncovers the science showing that cats purr in almost the same frequency range humans hum. For cats, this frequency reduces pain, accelerates healing and helps bones mend - and it may work similarly for us.This episode also includes a simple guided practice: a moment to close your eyes, breathe and feel the vibration move through your chest, throat and face. You’ll discover why this small act creates coherence between heart and brain, and why the silence that follows a hum feels so alive and peaceful.Part science, part mysticism and entirely human, this is an invitation to reconnect with the medicine inside your own voice. A soothing, insightful listen for anyone curious about energy, sound and the quiet tools that help us return to balance.You can support the show by buying me a coffee HEREYou can join the VIP, subscriber only PRIVATE podcast HEREVisit margaretdepetro.com to book a Tarot reading, explore courses, or step deeper into your own journey.Leave a VOICEMAIL for Margaret HEREEdited with precision by Mike at Making Digital Real
