AUM THE UNIVERSAL SOUND?

Why OM you may ask?

I have been known to howl at moon, show my teeth when angry, and now I find myself OM-ing around my yard. A few of these oddities have been passed down from my parents, possibly even further generations. My mother often would honk her horn when driving past colorful trees in the fall and I defiantly have heard my father bark at people. Now my niece is hissing at strangers and I am sure my own child will come up with her own little oddities as well. Seems to be a family trend.

So back to the AUM or OM. I started to OM which is actually sounded out as A AA UUU MMM every morning. I would chant to my plants and to spread positive vibes around my house. But does that really work? Here is what I found out after a little digging through the world wide web.

Benefits of OM

  • purifies the environment around you

  • calming

  • increased concentration

  • spreads positive vibrations

  • allows the heart to beat in rhythm

Call me a nut bird if you want or go give it a try yourself. Have neighbors close by? Remember by chanting the vibration of OM it also benefits the people/ things around you. It is after all the Universal sound and if you are real quiet and listen closely you may just hear the Universe itself OM right back.
