Professional Sound Healers Training

The Center of Light Institute of Sound Healing

Sound Healers Practitioner Series

Level II:  Applications ~ 5 Primary Weekends  

We offer ever broader and more explicit range of trainings in sound healing practice, which delve into greater personal & professional awareness, and outlines of the application of sound in therapeutic practice.    Level II trainings require completion of Level I, our Foundation Training.  Consideration may be given to those completing most of Level I with completion of Lev I in the next class cycle,
or with additional professional skill development outside of class. 
These experiential programs will take the practitioner to ever deeper levels of cognitive and experiential understanding, enriching their lives and practice.   We create a coherent team of practitioners which carries into other avenues of your well being, and prepare for a third year of explicit supervised trainings.   Second year graduates receive a certificate of completion of studies, third year graduates receive a certification from the School as a Sound Practitioner.
