If I was tuning wind chimes, I would probably use Just intonation, not equal temperament because a wind chime play in different keys.

Exceptional circumstances excepted of course.

ECEOC?

I have used 'BOCTAOE' (but of course there are obvious exceptions) in the past, but, guilt by association, kinda stopped all that.

Had to look up "Solfeggio Healing Frequencies".

There are plenty of 9-hour long YouTube videos (example [1]) cycling through the frequencies. Apparently to be played while you sleep.
