GENERAL OUTLINE FOR THE COURSES
In either the Awakening Chakras Energies Through Sound or The Healing
Power of Sound and depending how long the workshop is, James will
draw upon following areas::
-
Toning the chakras. This will be done in four forms.
Pure vowels, pure consonants, Tantra Yoga seeds and adapted Western
seeds. These will be done on spontaneous tones, a collective tone
and a particular scale. They will be sounded aloud, on the breath
and finally, as in meditation, mentally.
- Taoist Healing Sounds. These sounds and movements are directed at
the principal organs of the body and are accompanied by specific movements.
- Breathwork: Development of a technique that concentrates on the belly
as the source of breath. Also other brief warm-up exercises.
- Natural Sound rituals. Particular ritualistic ways of engaging in
laughter, groaning, keening, humming and sighing.
- Breath mantra and Chanting.
- Collective Improvisation
- Discovering your own fundamental tone.
- Listening and resonating with tuning forks. These are both placed
to the ears as pairs and also placed on the body singly. The forks are
tuned purely to the overtone series.
- Much of the work is accompanied by very simple movements and gestures.
Given the time, not every area will necessarily be covered.

Susan Hale
Workshops, private sessions and training.
Susan Elizabeth Hale - Author Sacred Space - Sacred Sound:
The Acoustic Mysteries of Holy Places. Quest Books, July
2007. www.songkeeper.net
Susan Hale takes us on a spiritual autobiographical sound journey and
re-enchants the world around us. She profoundly heightens our awareness
of the natural processes and the creation of living forms through sound
while easily supplying a wealth of knowledge of the sound phenomena
and the history of the sacred sites. . She personally introduces us
to significant figures in the field of sound research and music who
offer their insights and wisdom. This is a deeply heartfelt sonic travelogue
that presents us with familiar landscapes and great architectural spaces
and transforms them into magical, enthralling temples of harmony. Like
an intuitive acoustic archaelogist, Hale writes so totally from deep
personal experience that we are brought into the living presence of
the sacred spaces from around the world. Sacred Space Sacred Sound lends
fresh meaning to the word "sacred" and is a glorious hymn
to both the ecstasy and serenity to be found in great architectural
spaces and Nature itself..
(James D'Angelo 2007)
