While he didn’t have the benefit of today’s brain imaging technology, he just may have been right. Human brains interpret waves that fall between 20 to 20,000 Hz as sound. The vibration, usually carried by the air, enters our ear, eventually stimulates the auditory nerve , which sends a signal to the brain.

Your Brain on Change. The first thing we need to understand about the human brain is that it evolved to keep us safe in a dangerous world, where our ancestors met deadly threats at every turn. For those of us who are responsible for change management, we need to consider how the brain responds to change. by Margie Meacham.
