Are You Coming to Your Senses? Your Soul’s Sense of Sound
Welcome to the second part of a five-part series on how your soul perceives your physical senses. In our previous article, The Sense of Sight, we discussed insight — the ability to see what is beyond the physical that is around you. Insight is a well-recognized phenomenon and is commonly referred to as the Sixth Sense, the Third Eye, or psychic ability, which you can learn more about from intuition expert Sonia Choquette.
Have you ever pondered that there might be a similar soul experience for sound? What might we call such an experience? Your inner sound waves of insight? Sound that is in alignment? For the purpose of this article we will refer to it as in-sound.
Sound as a Spiritual Experience
On the human plane of existence, sound is an important part of your spiritual experience. For example, music has never been more popular than it is today. There are numerous healing practitioners who use sound therapy of some form or another with their clients. And sound-based activities such as drumming circles are gaining in popularity outside of indigenous communities as a means for humans to connect with themselves and Source.
Thinking about the sense of sound in other ways…how many humans claim to hear voices at some time or another? Almost anyone who has spent much time in nature would say they’ve imagined they heard a voice in the wind at some point. Has it ever happened that you thought you heard the crying out of a woman or child, yet you can’t figure out where the sound has come from?
Have you ever heard some sort of a tone or had a ringing in your ears when there is nothing around you that could be making that sound? For instance, there isn’t a bell ringing or a television show on in your home or the next-door neighbor’s house. There’s no phone ringing, or even an electrical current hooked up to some device that would justify you hearing something. There is nothing physical that could be held accountable for making the noise, and yet you hear a sound.
The Sound of Your Soul
These sounds or voices that we are speaking of are the voices from within. This is your soul connecting to the oneness that is around you. These are the beings, so to speak, that are in the dimensions that are all around you. This is the energy connection to your flame.
Every soul emits a tone, and all high-vibrational essence beings know you by your sound.
What is the tonality of another soul, and how do you hear that sound? You hear it through the in-sound of your own soul! You don’t hear it standing next to someone else. You can’t hear someone else’s sound by holding your ear really close to their physical embodiment and saying to them “What is it I am listening for? I’ve been told there is a tonality to you and your existence, but I just can’t hear it!”
There’s too much density to the human body in the physical. Light, which is inside of you, has a high frequency pitch to it. This is what your soul aligns itself with. You can’t hear another soul’s tone with your physical ears — you can only hear it in your soul.
The Presence of Energy
You have to remember that science can’t prove this. Science can only prove the physical. Yet science knows it exists. How? Because the energy shows itself in scientific experiments on scales and meters, even though there is no physical proof of it! Theoretically, science predicts that sound and tonality will go even higher on their scales, but they don’t have an explanation for it. Science can’t accept it as it being something spiritual because they have no understanding of that aspect.
Energy is present even when you can’t see it. Have you ever stood under a group of overhead electrical wires and heard a popping or humming sound? Those wires are carrying currents of energy that most human beings use every day, yet you can’t see the energy…but you can certainly hear it!
What we would tell you is that there is energy that is more refined than what science can even comprehend. Science has recognized tones and sound that it can’t explain, so can we call it a midway or perhaps a middle ground of acceptance?
Experience the Energy of Sound
Meet renowned sound healer and modern-day Mystic Tom Kenyon in the film Song of the New Earth. He integrates modern-day scientific advances in sound research with mystical and ancient traditions including alchemy, Shamanism, and more. Sound can heal not only us but our planet, Mother Earth.
Hearing the Voices Within
Humans have been taught in most cases to run away from their in-sound, from the voices within. Why is that? Because religions have dictated that this is an evil occurrence, that it’s your alter ego or even the Devil speaking to you. In reality, it’s just the opposite…
What you hear through your physical ear is the altered ego state, and what you hear coming from within you is the God Voice.
You must remember, though, that everything has been designed through social consciousness to dis-empower you. Why? Those in power know that if you were to become empowered, you would not continue to serve them. So they have continued to come up with threats. The ultimate threat being that of Hell and damnation if you don’t abide by the guidelines they have laid out for you in the physical.
Many people are able to gain access to their in-sound during meditation. Spontaneous chanting during meditation or spiritual ceremonies is really the soul declaring itself, aligning itself with the tonalities from within. You are accessing sounds from interdimensional worlds and bringing them forth into the physical. Before you can produce sounds vocally, you have to hear them internally. That is the inner sound we are speaking about. And that is in alignment with your soul.
To access these higher forms of consciousness and further empower yourself, try Gaiam TV’s Fractal Meditation System. It can help you stimulate your mind into enhanced awareness.
The Difference Between Healing and Emotion
Feelings are the sensory system based upon the physical. Feelings are mostly shallow and fleeting, easily changed, and influenced by what is going on around you. In contrast, the emotional sensory system of the soul is a deeply resonating experience. It is the experience that is carried with you from lifetime to lifetime, from existence to existence. These are the emotions that move, change, shift, and expand you.
Can you see or feel the difference? Will you now HEAR things differently in your life? We hope this perspective on in-sound has opened you up to hearing your soul speaking to you.

What Is Automatic Writing and How to Use It for Channeling
Automatic writing is a technique used to access information from the unconscious or the spiritual plane through spontaneous writing. This practice allows for receiving messages that do not come from conscious thought, but instead manifest through the free flow of words onto paper. In this article, we explore what automatic writing is, its connection with spiritual channeling, and how you can begin practicing it step by step.

What Is Automatic Writing?
Automatic writing is a method of expression that allows the hand to write without the conscious intervention of rational thought. In this state, words emerge spontaneously, as if guided by an external source or an inner wisdom that manifests without mental filters. This technique has been used for centuries as a way to access content from the deep unconscious or as a tool for spiritual connection.
Many people who practice automatic writing report feeling that the messages do not come from themselves, but from other entities, energies, or planes of consciousness. The experience can vary: some people receive short phrases, others write entire pages, but in all cases, it’s about letting the body express itself without rational control. For this reason, the practice requires a state of relaxation and openness, without expectations or judgment about what appears on the page.
Automatic Writing and Spiritual Channeling
Automatic writing can also become a direct channel of communication with spiritual guides, interdimensional beings, or the higher self. In these cases, the person acts as a bridge between realms, allowing the message to be captured in words without the ego interfering in the process. This practice is considered a form of channeling when the message comes from a clear and coherent spiritual source.
In the series Channeling: A Bridge to the Beyond, available on Gaia, the various ways in which channelers access non-physical information are explored, including automatic writing as a tool to transmit messages from beyond. The series presents real experiences and testimonials from experts who explain how these practices help open consciousness and access transformative information.
How to Practice Automatic Writing Step by Step
Practicing automatic writing requires creating an adequate space, relaxing the mind, and allowing the words to flow without conscious control. It is not about writing from logical thought, but rather about opening up to a receptive state where information arrives effortlessly. With regular practice, this process becomes more fluid and clear.
Energetic Preparation and Inner Disposition
Before starting, it is essential to prepare the space and personal energy. Find a quiet place, turn off distractions, and create a harmonious atmosphere with soft lighting, incense, or gentle music if you prefer. Breathe deeply for a few minutes and set your intention to open yourself to receiving information with clarity and respect.
It is also important to check your internal state. Automatic writing is not just a technique—it is an act of receptivity. That is why it is necessary to be calm and with a neutral attitude. If you are anxious, rushed, or have rigid expectations about what “should” appear, you are likely to interfere with the process. The key is to release mental control and trust whatever arises.
Techniques to Facilitate the Writing Flow
One very useful technique is to start by writing repetitive phrases, such as “I am ready to receive” or “I open myself to whatever comes.” This initial writing acts as a bridge between the conscious and receptive states, helping calm the mind and activate the flow. Often, after a few lines, the tone of the message shifts and begins to flow on its own.
Another technique is to write without lifting the pen from the paper for several minutes, without worrying about the meaning of the words. This helps overcome initial blockages and gives way to a more natural rhythm. It doesn’t matter if at first only random words or meaningless sentences appear. What matters is to keep the movement going and observe whether the content starts to become coherent without rational intervention.
Practical Exercises to Start Channeling
One initial exercise consists of formulating a clear question before writing. Then, take a deep breath, relax your body, and begin to write anything that comes up, without correcting or thinking about structure. When finished, read what you wrote without judgment. Over time, you’ll notice the answers start to show more coherence and depth.
Another useful exercise is to write after a brief guided meditation. Spend a few minutes calming your mind, focusing on your breath, and visualizing a soft light enveloping your hands. Then, begin writing without a defined topic and allow the words to emerge freely. This practice helps you enter a deeper receptive state and facilitates connection with subtle realms.
Where Do Channeled Messages Come From?
The messages received during automatic writing can have different origins, depending on the level of connection and the intention of the channeler. These sources usually belong to higher planes of consciousness and act as guides for personal and spiritual growth. Identifying their origin helps better understand the type of information received and its purpose.
- Spiritual Guides: These are beings of elevated consciousness who accompany the soul’s path. Messages from them often offer clear guidance, protection, and support in important decisions.
- Akashic Records: They contain the energetic memory of the soul and its journey through time. Through automatic writing, it is possible to access fragments of this information to gain guidance on life processes and spiritual evolution.
- Ascended Masters: These are beings who have reached a high level of consciousness and wisdom. Their messages provide deep teachings and tools for personal and spiritual transformation.
- Higher Self: This represents the highest and wisest aspect of one’s own being. This connection allows for receiving messages aligned with life purpose and a deeper understanding of one’s path.
- Angels or Archangels: These are light energies that transmit peace, guidance, and assistance during times of change or difficulty. Often, channeled messages from these planes carry a loving, protective, and compassionate tone.
- Deceased Loved Ones: In some cases, the messages come from family members or close individuals who have passed on. These communications usually hold significant emotional value and can bring comfort or closure to unresolved matters.
Spiritual Benefits of Automatic Writing
Automatic writing is not only a tool for channeling information—it also supports spiritual growth by deepening inner connection, expanding perception, and cultivating greater emotional and energetic clarity. Its regular practice transforms the relationship with oneself and with what lies beyond the visible.
- Inner clarity: Helps identify thoughts and emotions that were hidden. This allows for more conscious and aligned decision-making.
- Connection with subtle planes: Facilitates access to higher levels of consciousness. This openness strengthens intuition and spiritual confidence.
- Emotional healing: Writing without filters allows the release of blockages and retained emotions. The process acts as a form of energetic cleansing and self-exploration.
- Development of intuition: Enhances the ability to perceive internal and external signals. This strengthens spiritual discernment in everyday life.
- Deep self-knowledge: When channeling messages, unconscious aspects of the self often emerge. This supports processes of personal transformation and expansion of consciousness.
