35-Hour Aligned Sound Bath Practitioner Certification and Training
This immersive, comprehensive training will have many opportunities to learn and practice how to facilitate meditative spaces with sound. The Aligned Sound Bath is focused on creating safe spaces through sound and meditation, allowing your students and clients to align and realign to the being within. This is about tuning into the space within using sound as a guide. Sound is a powerful meditation tool for others to cultivate a deep connection to the self.
Together, we’ll explore, learn, experience, and practice:
The impact of meditation on the body
Meditation techniques - how to share these practices with others
Cymatics - the study of sound made visible
Frequency, resonance, and entrainment
Basic music theory - how to use sounds and musicality to ease the body into a meditative state
Harmonics and chords
Overview of instruments used in sound healing - bowls, gongs, chimes
How to play quartz crystal and Tibetan singing bowls
Basic gong playing techniques
How to pair bowls together for harmonic, beautiful sound baths - how and where to buy bowls, access to special student 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
