Sound Healing Mastery is a Sound Healing Practitioner Certificate Program offering 9 individual classes as well as a weekend retreat designed to build a solid foundation in vibrational  or sound therapy. In this groundbreaking series you will learn the art and science of sound healing, from how it works, to experiencing it through immersion. You will also learn to use the tools of Sound Healing, from focusing your intention to using Tibetan bowls, tuning forks, crystals, crystal singing bowls, drums, light and color, sacred geometry, music and movement, and using your own voice to heal as you practice both giving and receiving the healing power of sound.

Sound Healing is a form of energy medicine or vibrational therapy. Every living thing has a frequency or vibration. When we harness the power of these frequencies and add new ones with conscious intention, we create a positive, healing reaction, not only in the body, but also in the realms of energy, mental, emotional and spiritual.

You’ll also learn the ethics of vibrational therapy, and how not to project your own issues into a healing session. How to create and maintain good energetic boundaries is also included so that you can keep your energy strong and clear while you help others, instead of feeling drained.

In the final class, you’ll learn exactly how to conduct a sound healing session, and be introduced to heart based business practices, to create a solid foundation for your healing work, whether you use it for friends and family, or as the foundation or addition to a thriving client practice.

Using sound and vibration with attention, awareness and positive intention helps us create greater harmony and happiness in our lives, our communities and the world, as we connect to the power within us and use it to raise our own vibration to the highest level we can imagine.

Sound Healing Mastery Certificate Program:

INTRODUCTION CLASS: Sound Healing Basics Friday 6-8m; February 3rd, 2011

Discover how sound healing works and why it is emerging as a highly respected and invaluable treatment method in the field of integrative health and wellness. Learn to use basic sound healing tools to shift into any state of being you want, and find out how sound is used to clear mental, physical and emotional roadblocks, and to harmonize with your environment. Experience an introduction to Tibetan Singing Bowls, Tuning Forks, Crystals, Drums, a Sound Bath, and your own Voice to create a circle of healing sound.

CLASS 1: The Healing Power of Sound – Foundation Sat 9am – 4pm; February 4th, 2012

Explore the art and science of Sound Healing through immersion and hands on experiential learning. We will cover the how and the why, as well as an overview of the chakras and the Human Energetic System as it relates to Sound Healing. You’ll learn how to connect with your Higher Self and to trust the guidance it brings. We’ll cover the ethics of vibrational therapy, and how not to project your own issues into a healing session, and the importance of doing your own healing work on yourself. As you are introduced to the tools of sound healing, you’ll practice giving and receiving mini sound sessions, and learn some simple yet powerful practices to incorporate into your everyday life, including the use of your own unique sound signature.

CLASS 2: Sounding the Earth – Drums, Dance & Didgeridoo  Sun – 9am-3pm; February 5, 2012

Sound healing has been around for thousands of years, and many of these methods are just as powerful today as they were then. From tribal or ecstatic dance, to rhythm, drums and the didgeridoo of the Australian Aborigines, these ancient sounds connect us to the Earth in a primal way, as the vibrations make us want to move. Shamans have used drums to anchor those traveling into other dimensions, while others have used drums to call in a state of being, create a ritual, raise energy, or to release a stuck or stagnant energy. You’ll learn to use drums, movement and earth music to feel more grounded, and to let go of anything that is not serving your highest good.
Guest co-teacher: Hanakia Zedek: with Inner Voice & the Talking Woods.  Visit Hanakia’s website HERE.

CLASS 3: Voice I – Your Soul Signature Sat 9am – 4pm; March 3rd, 2012

Intention is everything, but what if you’re not aware of them all? Learn to recognize when something is honoring your authentic Voice, and when it is not. Uncover unconscious “ counter intentions” which may be blocking you from your highest potential. Use your voice to shift your energy with sound toward greater harmony and toward what you DO want, while letting go of whatever is no longer serving your highest good. We’ll explore the ancient art of chanting and sacred mantras to experience this first hand.

CLASS 4: Voice II – As a Healing Tool Sun 9am – 3pm; March 4th, 2012

Your voice is the most powerful of all the sound healing tools. Learn how to tone to clear and balance the energy centers in yourself and others, as well as how to use the voice to dissolve physical, mental, emotional or even spiritual blocks. We’ll practice how to use toning to do distance healing and healing with groups of people. We’ll also cover using the voice as a diagnostic tool, and an introduction to overtone singing, also known as vocal harmonics. You’ll learn how to use your voice effectively without hurting your throat or vocal cords.

CLASS 5: Singing Metals – Tibetan Bowls, Chimes & Tuning Forks Sat 9am – 4pm; April 14th, 2012

Learn how to use Tibetan Bowls to balance the energy centers, to clear blocks and to entrain a person into a state of peace and calming. These amazing metal singing bowls can also be used to determine where a block may be in the energy system. Tuning forks, Metal chimes and Ting-Shas are additional sound healing tools from the singing metals family; learn how they work and practice some great self-care methods as well as ways to work with others to balance and harmonize the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies. You’ll learn to use tuning forks both on the body at acupressure points, as well as off the body, in the energy field, depending on the desired outcome.

CLASS 6: Sounding the Light; Color & Clarity Sun 9am – 3pm; April 15th, 2012

Sound waves are actually physical matter (atoms and molecules), where light waves are electromagnetic and appear as different colors when dispersed through a prism. Learn how to use sound, light and color together to create a powerful healing effect. Many healing systems connect specific colors to specific chakras or energy centers, and specific sounds to certain colors as well, while others feel that any color can be “encoded” onto any sound, as long as the intention is clear. You’ll learn to work with colors in both ways, and to trust your intuition about which method is best in a particular situation.

CLASS 7: Crystal and Clairaudience Sat 9am – 4 pm; May 5th, 2012

Crystals, whether as stones or as singing bowls, amplify, transform, store, focus, transfer and transmute energy. Our bodies also contain “crystalline structures,” as bones, and the myelin sheaths of the nervous system. This is why using crystal is so powerful as a sound healing tool – it affects us “bone deep.” Crystals also connect us to both the earth (through crystal stones from the earth) and the angelic realm, through the high vibrational and high frequency sounds of crystal singing bowls. When we master the use of crystal, we open ourselves to become an instrument of transmission and reception – of messages from those higher realms. Learn how to use crystal with sound effectively both for healing and to develop your intuition and clairaudience (the power to hear sounds which exist beyond the reach of ordinary experience, such as messages from angels).

CLASS 8: Ethics & Sound Healing Practice – Foundation Sun 9am-3pm May 6th, 2012

Now that you’ve learned the tools and gained real experience in using sound to help real people, it’s time to step into your new role as a guide and healing presence. You will learn how to conduct a complete Sound Healing session with a friend or client, from intake and regulatory concerns, to asking from the heart for your client to book their next appointment. We’ll cover the ethics of vibrational therapy in more depth, and how to create and maintain good energetic boundaries so that you can keep your energy strong and clear while you help others. We’ll discuss the importance of doing your own self-healing work, and provide useful tools for a daily practice to keep you clear and grounded, and provide resources for times when the healer needs healing!

RETREAT: Mastery of Self and Sound - Fri 4pm – Sun 12pm; March 9th -11th, 2012

Held at Cedar Cliff Retreat home, on the shores of Lake Superior, near Lutsen, MN

Discover and Enjoy:

Advanced Sound Healing tools and techniques which we will practice with each other, clearing and releasing anything that is not aligned with your Highest Good.

How to use your unique signature sound and intention to step into the vibration of what you DO want, such as happiness, grace, ease, certainty, well-being or courage.

Create Your Soul Mantra:   you will create your own sound healing mantra with your voice based on your Soul Path and purpose.

2012 Ascension Sound Journey:  A powerful sound & music meditation experience designed to anchor you more deeply in the consciousness of Love instead of fear.

A moonlight snowshoe walk under the stars to call for owls, sounding with nature herself.

How to keep your energy clear & strong and stay in your integrity when working with clients or caring for others.

A Sound Bath we create with our Voices, Tibetan Singing Bowls, Crystal Singing Bowls & Drums.

Using the Harmony Wheel; a beautiful way to connect with your own Higher Self wisdom – to KNOW whatever is right for you at any given moment.

Dive deep, bringing together all that you’ve learned, and practice the art and science of Sound Healing hands on with your fellow participants. This retreat is highly experiential; expect a transformational and healing experience as you step into the Mastery of Sound Healing. You will learn how to conduct a complete Sound Healing session with a friend or client, from intake to asking from the heart for your client to book their next appointment. We’ll cover the ethics of vibrational therapy in more depth, and how to create and maintain good energetic boundaries so that you can keep your energy strong and clear while you help others.

We’ll experience the use of music as medicine. Music speaks to both sides of the brain, logical/ verbal AND emotional/non verbal, which is why music and singing is so effective in helping people with Alzheimer’s regain some memory and even the ability to speak in some cases. The more complex music is, the more it draws the listener in as it both intrigues the mind and touches the emotions. We’ll explore music from the perspective of both creators and active listeners, and learn what kinds of music works well in different situations, from healing sessions to better productivity, to studying for tests, or reducing stress and anxiety.

Whether you plan to serve clients as a sound healing practitioner, or simply to use what you have learned to create greater harmony, healing and happiness in your life, this retreat will be an anchor of well-being, confidence and self-mastery.

You will also receive a ticket (my treat) to a fantastic concert held right in our location, given by Michael James Wachner, a Minneapolis based producer, songwriter  and musician.  Michael has an incredible way of channeling pure spirit when he plays, embodying and radiating healing energy in and through the music.

Michael’s performances are a catalyst for healing, meditation and transformation and seem to embody the beauty and spirit of the woods and water surrounding us.

His soul shines through his music, and you will never forget how it makes you feel.  He will help us to anchor the sacred sound space with a very special musical meditation as well.

This is an optional and highly recommended addition to the Sound Healing Mastery Certificate program, and is also appropriate for those who have some sound healing experience or have taken a previous retreat or day class with me.
