Everything in the universe, from the air we breathe to the clothes we wear, is composed of atoms that vibrate at different speeds. This vibration is what we refer to as frequency. Although a large part of these frequencies lies beyond the scope of human perception, frequencies can be measurable and scientifically verifiable. The study indicates that the frequency of a healthy human body rests at 100.
When the frequency decreases below 100, it could imply a disruption in the body's natural balance, potentially leading to various physical and psychological symptoms.
So what does “frequency” mean?
Energy, light, and matter all exist on a vibrational continuum. A tiny portion of this continuum is the electromagnetic spectrum, and of that spectrum, a tiny portion is visible light.
All physical matter consists of vibrating atoms, which we call “energy” or “frequency.”
Physical matter — including your body, a table, or a computer — only seems solid due to the vibration of the atoms.
Matter is 99% empty space and only feels solid due to the vibration of atoms.
Throughout millennium, human beings have been aware of other energy fields/frequencies which aren’t visible to the naked eye, or measurable by current scientific devices.
The human body —functioning optimally — is a highly attuned extrasensory instrument, far more perceptive to spectrums of energy than our most advanced technology.
When we understand that all physical matter has different vibrational qualities, we can ask, “Is it possible that these different vibrations have positive or negative effects on our health?”
I believe so.
I think it’s possible the high frequencies of fabrics like linen and wool bring energy to the human body, and support the body’s healing process.
In 2003, Dr. Heidi Yellen ran a study to examine the frequencies of different fabric. She used a machine called the “Ag-Environ machine” which had been used to measure the “signature frequency” output of plants and the human body.
The machine’s inventor, Bob Graham, found that the human body had different frequencies based on its level of health. The healthier the body, the higher the frequency.
A healthy human body registered a frequency of 100, but a very diseased body had a frequency of 15.
The study suggests a relationship between fabric frequencies and human health. High-frequency fabrics like linen, hemp, organic cotton and wool impart energy, while low-frequency synthetics might drain it. This interplay invites us to consider the materials we wear and their impact on our energy and wellbeing.
Yellen’s study reported the following “signature frequencies” different fabric:
Linen: 5,000
Wool: 5,000
Mixed linen and wool: 0… it appears that the frequencies cancel each other out. Perhaps this accounts for the ancient instructions not to mix these fabrics.
Organic cotton – 100
Cotton – 70
Silk – 15
Polyester – 15
Rayon – 15
While I don’t have as much details as I’d like regarding this elusive study, the information reinforces what I’ve intuitively felt about natural fiber vs. synthetic fiber clothing.
Even before I heightened my awareness around the materials/products I used on my body, I gravitated towards natural fibers like linen, cotton and cashmere. I felt a restrictive quality to fabrics like polyester, even if the clothes were loose-fitting.
Other Problems with Synthetic Fabrics
When we wear fabrics like rayon, nylon, and polyester, we’re essentially wearing plastic. These fabrics are shown to shed microplastics into the water supply when laundered.
Further, it raises the question: can these microplastics be absorbed by the skin?
Are the other toxic chemicals used in synthetic fabrics be absorbed through the skin?
And can working out in plastic fabric (i.e. polyester yoga pants) cause increased exposure to the fabric’s chemicals and microplastics, due to increased moisture and heat?
Additionally, some athleisure clothing (including Nike, Athlete, and The North Face) is shown to contain BPA, a toxic chemical used in plastic manufacturing. BPA has been found in polyester/spandex fabric blends.
Chemical testing of yoga pants from popular brands like Athleta and Lululemon reveal the presence of PFAS, toxic chemicals also found in many personal care products and non-stick pans.
Viscose is a fabric made from chemically-processed wood pulp, and sometimes bamboo fiber. Wood and bamboo has to go through a lot of chemical processing to become a soft fabric!
This raises questions like: are the chemical residues in the fabric absorbed into the skin? What environmental consequences result from disposing of the chemicals used for fabric processing?
Linen: The High-Frequency Healer
Linen fabric, as ancient as civilisation itself, is the standout fabric in Yellen's study with a staggering frequency of 5,000. This is significantly higher than the human body's frequency, which averages around 100. Linen's high frequency suggests that it could impart energy to the wearer, potentially boosting vitality and well-being. Historically, linen has been revered for its healing properties, often used in bandages, linen sheets and clothing for its natural resistance to bacterial growth and fungi.
Wool: The Warm Embrace of High Frequency
Like linen, wool resonates at a frequency of 5,000. Renowned for its warmth and comfort, wool's high frequency suggests more than just physical warmth; it could also energise the wearer on a vibrational level. However, when linen and wool are worn together, their frequencies nullify, plummeting to zero due to their opposing energy flows.
Organic Cotton: Harmonising with the Body
Organic cotton stands out with a frequency of 100, mirroring the human body's frequency. This harmony suggests a natural sync with our bodies, making organic cotton a comfortable and potentially health-supportive choice. Its non-organic counterpart, with a lower frequency of about 70, lacks this vibrational alignment.
Hemp: The Sustainable Choice
Like organic cotton, hemp mirrors the human body at an impressive frequency of 100. The difference is, however, that hemp has far more environmental benefits over all other natural fibers - including linen. Hemp is very sustainable, being carbon-negative, pesticide-free and soil-enriching. In fact, hemp shares many properties of linen: it is non-static, UV-resistant, antibacterial and long wearing.
Hemp is the front runner if all natural fibers including linen. Firstly, hemp plants require less water and fewer pesticides and herbicides to grow compared to linen and cotton, making it a more environmentally friendly option. Additionally, hemp plants have a fast growth rate and high yield, meaning they can be harvested more frequently and produce more fibre per acre than linen plants. This makes hemp a more efficient and sustainable crop. Furthermore, hemp fibers are stronger, longer and more durable than linen fibers, resulting in longer-lasting products that do not require frequent replacement. Overall, the cultivation and utilisation of hemp have a lower impact on the environment and offer greater long-term sustainability when compared to linen and other natural fabrics.
Silk: The Surprising Low Frequency
Silk, a fabric known for its luxurious texture, was measured at a frequency of just 10 in Dr Yellen's study. This shockingly low frequency could be attributed to modern processing methods, which often involve chemicals.
Traditional sericulture involves feeding silkworms or silk moths mulberry leaves, which demands significant resources like water, land, and energy. Chemical usage, including pesticides and insecticides, is common in silk production, and ethical concerns arise as silkworms are often killed during harvesting. While non-violent or peace silk methods exist, they are not widely adopted. Additionally, limited availability of sustainable options and the energy-intensive processing of silk contribute to its environmental footprint. Efforts are underway to enhance silk sustainability, but it currently lags behind alternatives like organic cotton, linen, or hemp in terms of environmental and ethical considerations.
The Effect of Dyes on a Fabric's Frequency
While Dr. Yellen's study primarily focuses on the frequencies of fabrics like linen, wool, and cotton, the impact of dyes – particularly synthetic ones – remains an area for further exploration. Considering the chemical processes involved in dyeing, these additives could alter the natural vibrational frequency of fabrics.
In contrast, natural dyes, which are eco-friendly and derived from plants, minerals, or other natural sources, are likely to maintain the fabric's original frequency, thus preserving its potential health benefits.
Frequencies Beyond Fabrics
Dr. Heidi Yellen's bioenergetics study reveals that fabrics possess unique frequencies influencing our energy and health. High-frequency fabrics like linen, wool, organic cotton, and hemp impart energy, while synthetic fabrics exhibit lower frequencies, potentially draining our energy.
Linen emerges as a high-frequency healer, historically revered for its healing properties, resonating at a staggering frequency of 5,000. Wool, with a frequency of 5,000, not only provides physical warmth but also energises on a vibrational level but should not be combined with linen. Organic cotton, mirroring the human body's frequency at 100, becomes a harmonious and health-supportive choice. In contrast, silk surprisingly exhibits a low frequency of 10, attributed to modern processing methods and ethical concerns in traditional sericulture.
Rayon, synthetic fabrics, and even silk present environmental and vibrational concerns, emphasising the need for sustainable choices. Hemp stands out as a front runner, mirroring the human body at a frequency of 100, and offering superior environmental benefits over other natural fibers.
Vibrational Frequencies Beyond Clothing
Dr Heidi Yellen's exploration into the vibrational energy of natural fabrics and synthetics invites us to reconsider not just our clothing, but all bioenergetic aspects of our lifestyle. At ZONE, we only make products from natural and sustainable materials that serve to support our personal vibrational frequencies with as little negative impact to the environment.
