April 17 & 18, 2027

Our next in-person Sound Healing Certification is coming up on April 17 and 18, 2027, just north of Austin!
Sound Healing is a method of relaxation and meditation that utilizes singing bowls, gongs, and other healing instruments to promote stress relief and create a space for healing.
Sound Healing is not about performance, but rather using instruments to move stagnant energy in our environment and bodies. Sound vibrations impact our nervous system, engaging our relaxation reflex and inhibiting the stress and pain responses.
This 30-hour training will equip you with the foundational knowledge and practical skills needed to begin offering sound in your practice or sharpen your current sound healing skill set. Book our in-person training below or online training here!
