The Colour of Sound Institute now has students and sound therapy practitioners in more than 20 countries across 6 continents – so we can rightly say, for the first time, WE’RE GLOBAL!

Our vision is to facilitate a dynamic, international network of students, practitioners and teachers, to reduce pain, suffering and illness with sounds, and create the conditions for life to flourish on our beautiful planet!

To help realise this vision, we now have a framework in place for people who’ve qualified with our Diploma in Sound Therapy to become Associate Teachers.

This means that we can hold more workshops in a greater number of locations, and also provide better support to people who are following our on-line courses.

The first people to join as Associate Teachers are:

 

tessa greer sound healing spa

Tessa Greer (Sound Healing Spa) in Northern Ireland, UK

Tibetan Singing Bowls in Glastonbury

Roise O’Caollaidhe (The Sound Sanctuary) in the Midlands, UK

anne ridgway sound bath

Anne Ridgway (Blue Mountains Sound Therapy), in New South Wales, Australia

They will all be running sound therapy workshops with the Colour of Sound Institute in 2015, beginning in Northern Ireland in July.

Tessa has 4 dates planned in the Clotworthy Arts Centre, Antrim:

Saturday 4 July 2015 – 10.30 am to 5.30 pm

Sunday 19 July 2015 – 10.30 am to 5.30 pm

Saturday 1 August 2015 – 10.30 am to 5.30 pm

Sunday 23 August 2015 – 10.30 am to 5.30 pm

Content will include:

  • Theory of Sound as a Therapy
  • The use of  the Voice for Health and Wellness
  • Basics of Tuning Fork Therapy
  • Basic uses of Crystal and Tibetan Bowls in Sound Therapy
  • Use of other instruments, including shamanic drums and gongs in Sound Therapy

We’ll be posting more details, including costs and how to register your interest for this course soon….

Becoming an Associate Teacher provides a great opportunity for extending your services in sound therapy and for generating extra income.

During a Sound Therapy with Tuning Forks Workshop held in Glastonbury UK in April 2015 by the Colour of Sound Institute, Tony Nec interviewed Eileen McKusick live from Vermont, USA.

Eileen has over 20 years experience of working with tuning forks. She’s the author of “Tuning the Human Biofield” and is currently studying for a PhD in which she is researching among other things, the effectiveness of distant healing with tuning forks.

In this video, Eileen talks about the techniques she has developed for assessing imbalances in the human biofield and how to correct the imbalances.

She also outlines the 3 levels of training that she offers as well as some of the results she’s had already with distant healing with 1-2-1 clients and groups

Tuning Fork Sound TherapyFollowing our tuning forks workshop in Dublin last week, we received this very positive email from Sheila OBrien, who was one of the course participants:-

Hi Tony,
Wanted to say thanks again, I really enjoyed the seminar!
Also wanted to let u know that after I came home I used an app to measure my husband Jonny’s heart rate variability (HRV) before and after the tuning fork protocol for general well being and nervous system balance. His HRV had been very low lately due to over training for a triathlon. It measured 55 before and went to 76 after!!! And has stayed up since with some slight variation. Cool!!!!
Sheila

The app Sheila used is called ithlete and it requires a finger sensor.

HRV is the gold standard medical test for measuring stress in the autonomic nervous system. A low HRV score indicates a high level of stress.

The US Federal Government, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), says that 90% of all illness and disease is related to stress.

The Harvard Medical School says:

“Too much stress for too long creates what is known as ‘chronic stress’ which has been linked to heart disease, stroke, and may influence cancer and chronic respiratory diseases. And illness is just the tip of the iceberg. Stress affects you emotionally, as well, marring the joy you gain from life and loved ones.”

‘Stress Management: Approaches to Preventing and Managing Stress’; Harvard Medical Publications, Harvard Medical School.

Sheila’s research shows that working with the tuning forks protocol developed by John Beaulieu for general well being and nervous system balance helps to reduce stress.
