Vibrational Healing: When struck or played, bells create vibrations that are thought to interact with the body's energy field, helping to release tension, alleviate stress, and activate the body's natural healing mechanisms. These vibrations can help realign the frequencies within the body that may have become unbalanced due to stress or illness.
Parasympathetic Nervous System Activation: Sound healing, including the use of bells, can shift the body from the "fight-or-flight" response (sympathetic nervous system) to the "rest-and-digest" mode (parasympathetic nervous system). This shift can lower heart rate, reduce blood pressure, relax muscles, and decrease stress hormones like cortisol.
Brainwave Entrainment: The sustained, pure tones of bells can encourage the brain's electrical activity (brainwaves) to synchronize with the sound's frequency. This can promote alpha brainwave states (associated with relaxed awareness) and even theta states (linked to deep meditation and intuition). This brainwave shift can enhance mindfulness, encourage emotional release, and promote a sense of balance and well-being.
Chakra Balancing: Some traditions believe that bells can help clear energetic blockages and align the body's energy centers or chakras. Specific frequencies emitted by different types of bells may be used to target and balance particular chakras.
Clearing Stagnant Energy: The clear, ringing sound of bells is also believed to clear stagnant or negative energy from a room or around a person's energy field.
I miss the sound of the old church bells in the town my grandmother lived in. When I would go visit in the summer, the church bells rang every day. I wish churches would bring back the bells.

Look New Age nonsense.
Name checks out
Y'all need to read a bit more about frequency.
