9-Part Intensive Sound Healing Training
This broad topic is being offered as a Sound Healing Certification Course. At the request of many, I have organized my 15+ years of experience into a comprehensive learning journey. If you are interested…
Welcome, Sound Healer Apprentice…
Many of us have experienced moments when a greater calling begins to stir inside us and we realize we are looking for someone, a mentor or guide, to show us what we have already known in our soul. Something powerful wants to manifest in us. We are ready for the next teacher and our next phase of our life is about to rollout in front of us.
If working with sound is what has stirred your soul, you have found the right course. The power of sound and its ability to heal ourselves and others has only recently been considered viable and legitimate by western science and medicine after decades of discrediting rejection. Healers through time have known that sound is the oldest form of medicine, and today, it has become a “new therapy” or “the medicine of the future.
“Sound or vibration is the most powerful force in the universe. Music is a divine art, to be used not only for pleasure but as a path to Awakening.” ~ Yogananda
Learn from a non-traditional sound mentor who journeyed to many places and studied with many teachers who shared their native or intuitive sound remedies, therapies and healing practices. These resources were the foundational blocks that have supported a long sound healing study.
You can learn to access the power of sound for personal expansion or to use with clients seeking assistance with their conditions. Relying heavily on intuition, but integrating the science and practical knowledge of sound placement, as a healing maestro, you will learn to lead a body symphony of sound awakening in multi-cultural rhythms and methods. Your calling is turning curiosity into reality, as you find yourself composing healing therapies on ancient and modern hand instruments along with the healing and wellness power of the natural voice.
Sound Awakening is a full comprehensive online course in the ancient spiritual path of sound healing, offering everything you need to begin your apprenticeship as a healer and therapist in wisdom lineages that stretch back through the history of all civilization.
The art and science of Sound Medicine is not a New Age fantasy: it is a tradition that traces its roots back to ancient civilizations, and tribal cultures. The heart of this “sacred science” will change your consciousness immediately as you acquire new insights and energy beyond our self-imposed limitations.
As you follow the coursework in Sound Awakening, you will begin to master such practices as performing healing ceremonies and rituals, creating medicine music, mastering vocal techniques for brain expansion, and using sound trance (an ancient form of guided meditation) to commune with cosmic healing guides. You will learn ancient listening techniques for inner exploration, as well as practical skills that you can use in a therapeutic healing practice. Through sound wisdom you will bring your own body into balance as you uncover your unique talents, then follow time-honored traditions for amplifying your abilities.
Whether you have a gift for physical or emotional healing, spiritual insight, untapped reservoirs of creativity, or even psychic abilities for seeing energies, perceiving the past and future, or working with body wisdom, this training will help you fulfill your untapped power in sound and vibrational medicine, the medicine of the future.
This is a remarkable journey. To navigate it, you will need to have remarkable teachers.

Shara Gardner — An Elder in the Medicine Mysteries of Sound and Voice
Shara is a cosmic explorer who, when presented with a near death experience, consciously chose to linger and learn, then return to her body and pursue a new path, following the call of Sound in hidden corners of consciousness and the far reaches of the physical world.
On this learning journey Shara will share what she has learned from her mentors and guides as she explored sound with some of the most profound sound healers in the world, not the least of which have been teachers who connected with her while she was out-of-body, and who became her divine pantheon of illumnaries, her Spirit Faculty comprising some of the most profound and gifted healers and teachers who practiced sound healing during their earthly lifetimes.
Shara was taught sound wisdom through the lineages of such spirit legends as Native American, Essie Pinola Parrish, Hungarian Shaman, Jooska Soos, and more recently, Hawaiian Kahuna, Aunty Aka.
Additionally, Shara studied with devoted earth-bound sound teachers such as Jill Purce, Silvia Nakkach, Tom Kenyon, Chloe Goodchild, Jonathan Goldman, Randy Masters, Alicia Bonnet, Mouna Wilson, Alba Lirio, Eliana Gilad, John Beaulieu, Eileen McKusick, Wayne Perry, Sharry Edwards, Don Campbell, Kae Lui-Thompson, Fabian Maman, Frank Coppeiters, Mona Delfino, and more. Creating a magical blend and an inspiring synthesis of all these teachers and their methods and practices, Shara will be your guide and mentor as you undertake the most comprehensive and diverse training available for home learning.
With a thorough curriculum in sound and music healing for the home practitioner, Shara has preserved the essential wisdom transmissions of the teacher-student relationships she experienced on her own sound journey.

Sound therapies for dynamic wellness arose from many cultures that practice the arts of living well, as opposed to getting well, but include both. Sound practices that have come from around the world that existed over thousands of years in India, Africa, South America, Oceana, Australia, Europe and the Middle East region. In Sound Awareness, you will learn practices and principles from many great paths, including wisdom from:
Aboriginal Didgeridoo player
• Aboriginal: In stories told by Australian Aborigines, spirit beings sung Creation into existence in the Dreamtime, a time and place beyond present, past or future. Dreamtime stories date back many thousands of years, and the didgeridoo, one of the most ancient instruments in the world, plays a part in those stories. Aboriginal people have played the didgeridoo to re-invoke the Dreamtime connection. Today, practitioners around the world use the didgeridoo to induce health for the player and the listener, and to form their own connection to the Source of Creation.
• Indian and Tibetan: The ancient source of unmatched tools for elevating consciousness, purifying your energies, and navigating the transition between life and death through Chant, Mantra, Raga, and sacred utterances.
• The British Isles: Originating with the Celts, many pagan practices that help us connect to the natural world and the spirits of the unseen realms, the devas, fairies, and plant spirits who share sound magic within all earth elements.
• Africa: Powerful techniques for healing emotional longing and divination soundings to call the spirits of the enslaved ancestors for reconnection, healing and wellness.
• Oceana: Water and sound together create optimal sound healing results, spiritual wisdom, and the recognition that humans are 70% water, and therefore connected to all marine life and water wisdom as viewed through the study of the Cyma.
• Central Europe: Wisdom of sound and animal lore, vibrational alchemy, cathedral and monastery chanting reminding us of our ancestral connections
• South America: Key philosophical foundations for the voodoo magic of sound, as well as rituals that embrace aspects of Candomble, Santeria, Yoruban, dance and music expression, drama, music, and the arts as healing modalities
• The Middle East & North African Sephardic cultures: Berber, Bedouin, Tuareg, and Gnawan sound practices using astounding vocal techniques of longing and keening
• Egyptian Sound healers of the Pyramids and North Africa: using advanced technologies, this work is still not understood by scientists
• Cosmic Sound: Music of the Spheres, Planetary Origins of Tone through time and space, understanding of the way we are suspended in our universe that is suspended in a galaxy that is suspended beyond vast space. Think of it like this… a tiny ant cannot perceive our huge body and our consciousness. What are we missing in considering the enormous cosmos in which we live? Sound is just the beginning.
• What About Other Paths? Sound Awakening embraces knowledge from all sources and uses that learning to enrich and elevate the practice of wellness, including yoga, Buddhist meditation, indigenous shamanism, and modern science.
You will receive a complete “taste” of all healing sounds and music of the world and the ways you can use it for self-healing or as a practitioner. Without limits to one teacher’s specialty path or another, without limits of right and wrong for methods, techniques and motivations, this course, “Sound Awakening” brings you to a wide open doorway of options.
