Meditation techniques - how to share these practices with others
Cymatics, frequency, resonance, and entrainment
Basic music theory - how to use sounds and musicality to ease the body into a meditative state
Practice with a variety of instruments shared in sound healing - bowls, gongs, chimes
How to pair instruments - where to purchase, and access to special student-only pricing
The Arc of a Sound Bath - bringing participants in and out of the experience
How to facilitate authentic, safe experiences for private and group clients
The business of creating your sound bath offerings
…and so much more!
