@Moca55 it's difficult to explain, but in this popular saying, the word sound comes from a much older British English use of the word. In that context, "sound" means something like "alright", "correct, as it should be", and sometimes "healthy".
Another saying you may hear that uses this version of "sound" is; "I am of sound mind" where it means being mentally healthy.
