Section 1 - Developing a sensitivity to sounds
SECTION 1 - EXERCISE 1

DEVELOPING A SENSITIVITY TO SOUNDS

At this stage in your learning, a key task is to develop your sensitivity to sounds through listening with your ears, body, emotions and soul.

Developing these listening skills is vital for success as a sound healer.

You will notice that the questions are the same for each instrument audio.

By reflecting on what you hear, you will naturally increase your sensitivity to the subtleties of sound.

Listening exercise - Becoming sensitive to the sounds around you

This exercise should take about half an hour and can be done either inside or outside.
- Choose a location you are familiar with, where you will not be disturbed.
- Sit or lie down in a comfortable place and space.
- Close your eyes and relax into your space.
- Listen to the sounds around you, near and far, ideally for the full half hour. Do not open your eyes.
- Let the different sounds wash over you. Do not be attached to or concerned by any of them.
- You may like to visit the heartfulness meditation (in the Welcome and Key information module) to create an open and curious space for yourself as you relax into this exercise.
Write down your findings and experiences and answer the following questions:
Question 1.1
Question 1.1a: What sounds did you experience or hear?*

0/200
Question 1.1b: What sounds were you aware of that you haven’t heard or focused on before?*

0/200
Page 1 of 18

Question 1.2
- Here you can refer back to videos in the Introduction Course which covers the 5 Elements of conciousness.
- TIP: Don’t worry if accessing these parts of yourself feels challenging at first, just relax and be curious. There are no wrong answers.
How did the different sounds which you heard affect the following 4 (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) aspects of your being?
1. Physical *

2. Emotional *

Section 1 - Exercise 2
DEVELOPING A SENSITIVITY TO SOUND HEALING INSTRUMENTS

In this exercise, you will be developing your sensitivity to the sound healing instruments used in this course.

Sound meditation experience

For this exercise, please listen to the 6 audio recordings of healing sounds provided for each Module that are included in the upcoming pages. These can also be found on the last page in each Module.

We recommend that you use headphones to experience a greater richness of sound.
- Please carry out this exercise once.
- Wear comfortable clothing.
- Find a safe, comfortable and quiet space.
- Light some candles and/or incense if appropriate, then sit or lie down and relax.
- You may want to begin with some heartful meditation. See Module 8.
- Take some deep breaths in through your nose, then out through your mouth, letting go of any stress or tension.
- Imagine your body surrounded by a colored sphere of light (e.g., white/blue).
- If you have an intention to bring to this exercise, bring that to your mind.
- Keep your intention clear throughout the experience.
After listening to each audio sample, lay in silence for at least a minute to reflect and be aware of the silence and stillness within you.
