We know the vibrational wavelengths within which our brain operates, namely Beta (approx. 18-36 Hz), Alpha (approx. 18-7.5 Hz), Theta (7.5-3.25 Hz) and Delta waves (less than 3.25 Hz). Beta is our conceptual thinking capacity; Alpha is a slow, meditative state of mind, all the way down to Delta, which is deep sleep. These frequency levels are measured in Hertz or “cycles per second” and are a standard measurement. Perhaps you have heard of the “Schumann resonance”, the frequency of the earth's oscillation.

With the help of a low-frequency measuring coil, researcher Dr. Philip Callahan measured the frequency of the vibrational state of trees. He discovered that tree consciousness works up to 24 Hz, which means that it falls within the spectrum of human consciousness. When he noticed that a human had sent unconditional love to a tree, he discovered that the consciousness of both human and tree were phase-delayed - demonstrating that a connection had been made. This experiment and all research at Damanhur University in Italy and the University of Florence illustrate, on both a conventional and a scientific basis, that we can communicate with trees.

The consciousness of a tree and that of a person are very different on one level but alike on another. As humans, we tend to focus most of our energy and consciousness on what we can see with our own eyes and what we can communicate. A tree “sees” everything in its surroundings as a shape, a snapshot of every moment. It is synonymous with the perception of light, temperature, water, moisture, soil qualities, air qualities, etc.

The teachings or blessings we receive from trees are always what we need at that very moment. They are delivered to us in a way that we can understand them, always in a multidimensional framework that allows us to expand our consciousness through interaction.

It is a wonderful experience to communicate with a tree and also very easy. We just have to reach into our hearts, clear our minds and ask!
