    Thank you for your studies Dr.Bartel. Could anyone just simple listen to 40 hz each day and receive benefit or does it need to vibrate on the body?

    • @rkcannon
      @rkcannon หลายเดือนก่อน

      From what I gathered listening to sound will work just as seeing the light at 40hz. Sound goes into the brain. And if loud enough it will affect your skin too. The vagus nerve branches to the little lobes on your ears (that you can use to plug your ears) and picks up sounds too. This is also an effective path to brain stimulation. th-cam.com/video/D3TDHWhUyzg/w-d-xo.html He talks about a 5 hz frequency that is beneficial also. I have played a 38 and 43 to get a 5 hz beat frequency along with the others. I just use an online tone generator, plug my computer into my stereo and play. I have a 15" woofer that does a good job.

    Thank you for all the work you've done to prepare and post this video. I've heard storiies about the sinking of this steamer all my life (dad was born in 1908) and grew up im Meaford). The story that went around back then was that a light had been placed in the window to purposely divert the Mary Ward to shore at Craigleith, as she was said to have been carrying several barrels of whiskey. This was only a rumour, by the way, who knows, but makes an interesting twist to the story.

    In the early '80s, I picked up a piece of a Crinoid stalk (2 1/2" long X 1/2" wide) while hiking in the Sacramento Mountains of New Mexico. I never knew what it was until I finally did some research the other day with further confirmation from your well detailed video. Yes, roughly 40 years to figure it out.😄 I still have it and will check out your other videos.

    how do fossils geodize

    • @TheBlueMountainsPublicLibrary
      @TheBlueMountainsPublicLibrary 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Geodes form when groundwater filled with minerals seep into pockets in rock. The crystals form using the minerals and the water evaporates. These crystals can form around anything in the rock.
