Sacred Metals: Standing Gongs/Himalayan Singing Bowls, Bells & Shruti Songs

TRAINING CERTIFICATION: Module 2 of 3

This certification program teaches how to utilize a variety of Sound Healing techniques for your own practice as a Sound Healer. With a certificate from The Sage Academy of Sound, students should be better equipped to serve as practitioners, specialists, volunteers, interns, or even as members of a multidisciplinary treatment team within a health center or a community agency, as well as in a private healing or counseling practice.

We believe that the only way to truly absorb the teachings is by total immersion and abundant practice time. The retreat style setting limits outside distraction and enhances the deep focus needed for personal healing to occur, which in turn clears the way for the teachings to be experienced and deeply retained. Our program will bring each student to a high level of understanding and a knowledge of the practical applications of the Healing Sound.
