Tune your instruments to 432Hz for “A” rather than 440hz. That’s what is happening in these YouTube videos. I have my Uke tuned that way.
Another note of 432hz tuning. I’ve found sus cords is where you’ll hear the biggest difference for some reason. They feel better for some reason.

I was actually only listening to videos with the various tones being generated electronically, not to any musical instruments.
But I have heard and watched videos with instruments and ensembles where A was tuned to 432, and they mostly just sound duller to my ears. Same when I tried it at home; the instrument I tried retuning to 432 just didn’t resonate that way as well as it normally does. IMO, it doesn’t suit most modern instruments. High quality luthier-made stringed instruments are actually very carefully built, and with top thicknesses and internal parts precisely designed with the intended tuning in mind. The older ones from the baroque era needed a lower tuning, because of the gut strings they had available, and the way they were constructed with a flatter fingerboard angle, and such. Those that have survived and are used by musicians nowadays have needed to be rebuilt to accept heavier strings and more tension. Except for those all-original ones used by the “authentic baroque orchestras”, which tune even lower than 432, to around 420, if I’m not mistaken.
Same thing goes for wind instruments, but I’m not qualified to discuss the technicalities of those. Electronic instruments are another breed, of course, and can pretty much sound acceptable whatever pitch they’re tuned to. But there’s nothing inherently special or negative or right or wrong about A=432 tuning, A=440 tuning, or any other tuning. All that stuff being promulgated on YouTube about it is just a bunch of hype. And yes, there are even some amusing and sensationalist conspiracy theories that have cropped up around the subject.
Bottom line - frequencies are just frequencies, and there are an unlimited amount of those. And the frequencies that actually may have healing properties are ones outside of the human hearing range, as I understand it.
