I think plants absolutely vibe to music! And plants make their own sounds as well. Recently I saw something about research showing plants make a sound when they are cut. (yikes!) Which just leads back to (I think) talking to plants as you're working with them. Kinda like I do when I'm brushing my dog or (I hope) my dog-washer does when clipping her nails. Everything needs soothing.

I have heard that about plants screaming! It always haunts me as I prune a tree or give my herbs their haircuts. I hope they realize I'm doing it out of love!!

I totally agree that everything needs soothing. I think it was William S. Burroughs who said all pleasure is a form of relief. Soothing is a form of relief for sure.

It makes me wonder about plants.... there is so much we don't know.
