Overview:

Become a crystal bowl sound healer and learn how to use the power of sound, frequency and vibration as a healing tool and in your personal practice. Discover how to take people on a journey of beautiful crystalline sounds, guiding them away from disharmony and into a state of peace and balance, inner awareness and deep soul connection.

Crystal bowls have a pure and ethereal sound when played, emitting healing frequencies that tune the cells in our bodies back to balance, leaving us feeling centred and clear with a deeper connection to who we are at our core.

This course is led by sound healer Holly Husler. Holly is also a yoga and wellness teacher and musician who has played and sung at studios, events and festivals around the world.

This 30-hour training, over two weekends, is open to yoga teachers, healers, therapists and anyone who wants to incorporate sound baths into a yogic, therapeutic or community setting, or simply for personal use at home. 

 

 

You must bring your own crystal singing bowl (minimum one).

 

 

Course content:

The course is a mixture of theory and practical, with sound journeys from Holly, instruction on how to play your bowl/s, practice time, and talks on a variety of topics. These include: the history and science of sound healing, energy and sound frequencies, sound and the chakras, intuition and intention, music theory, holding a safe space, how to lead 1:1 and group sessions, the power of mantra and voice, and more. See course structure below for a day-by-day syllabus.

The course is over two weekends – June 8th & 9th and June 29th & 30th. Holly asks that you spend 2-3 hours reading the recommended book beforehand and time practising at home between the two weekends. The course is in-person.

 

You will receive a manual from Holly on day 1, especially written for this course.

Options for purchasing a crystal bowl:

 

 

Option 1: 

Alchemy crystal bowls. These are the bowls Holly uses. Each one is unique and mixed with precious gemstones, metals and minerals which give them their colour and extra healing qualities. They are the more expensive choice and unparalleled in quality, starting at around £800 per bowl.

 

 

Option 2: 

Clear quartz bowls. These are quartz only and are clear. They’re less expensive but still a beautiful quality, starting at around £300 per bowl.

Please email Holly on holly@hollyhusler.com to organise choosing and purchasing your bowl/s.

You are also welcome to research and source your own, of course. People sometimes opt for frosted bowls, which are less expensive but quality is not always guaranteed. Holly works with trusted distributors whose bowls are of the highest quality.
