This introductory course on facilitating sound healing work (private sessions, sound baths, etc.) will cover what sound healing is, why it works, how vibration impacts consciousness, and will discuss ancient uses of the practice up to the present day. Participants will have the opportunity to both receive healing sound and to practice facilitating sound healing sessions. Members of Dream Seed will also share and breakdown their unique approach to using sound in healing contexts. This is an experiential workshop in which students will have the opportunity to play instruments and implement techniques discussed. Friday night will include an extended sound bath by Dream Seed.

About our 9-Month Sound Healer Training Program
The Dream Seed Sound Healer Training Program is an immersive multi-cultural/inter-tribal course designed to give people a hands-on approach to facilitating sound healing sessions. By bridging the fields of sacred music, energy work, and healing traditions, participants will strengthen their capacity as sound workers and will walk away with the skills and knowledge to be able to incorporate sound into healing sessions and meditative environments. Participants who meet the attendance requirements will receive a certification of course completion.
Throughout the course of this training, we will focus on various exercises to learn more about sound healing through intention setting, listening, giving, receiving, and developing our intuition in relationship to sound. Participants are encouraged but not required to bring their own sound healing instruments. Many instruments from around the world will be available for participants to utilize and a variety of sound-healing instruments will also be available for sale.
The training course will include a weekend intensive in upstate New York with Maestro Manuel, Taino Elder and visionary founder of Golden Drum, where participants will go deep into traditional healing practices from around the globe. Other guest teachers will be featured from the African and Indian musical traditions during various weekend modules.
