Why Sound Healing and Shamanic Sound Practices workThe One Mind is the origin mind.

The point from which consciousness springs.

It is our home eternal.

Most of us do not know of it, though many of us have heard of it.

It is the point from which pure consciousness springs, the point where it dwells, the point where we are One with All Life.  We are All Life.  The Mind of All Things.

The cognitive mind cannot fathom it.  It is beyond cognition.

It is the place of Pure Mind, where life springs from itself.  It is the Heart of each of us.  The Fall from Grace was our choice to abandon or not believe it is so.  How could "I" be "this."

How could the world evolve around my every thought of manifestation?
How could I be this powerful?

The Mind is All Things.
It is not the cognitive brain we are speaking of.

It is the Living Mind of All Things.

 









Blessings to all.

Zacciah




Zacciah Blackburn, PhD, Sound Educator
From Our Director:
The Sounds of the Shaman

People have asked me for years to offer more traditional shamanic practices through my sound healing programs.  I have taken all I have learned, and all I teach in a 3 year training program on sound therapy, to encapsulate it, and incorporate it to the best of my ability, into a 5 day Sacred Sound retreat, we call:

Sacred Earth, Sacred Sounds:  Sounds of the Shaman.

It is held in July each year, this year, July 16-20, 2014.
The focus is a comprehensive program which incorporates fundamental understanding of the principles outlined above, of sound, intent, clarity of emotion and thought, working with basic sound tools, such as drums, ratttles, Tibetan and Crystal bowls, and bells, tuning forks, and other instruments in a cohesive platform.  We integrate this knowledge in skill building exercises and practices, that do all we can, in a 5 day training, to bring sound therapies into a personal or professional setting.  We utilize shamanic principles of seeing into other worlds, drawing upon alliance and empowerment for healing techniques, and working with the elemental consciousness of the Earth, and sacred sites, to enter heightened states of awareness, realization, and empowerment.

We will be in the luscious 95 Acres of the SpiritFire Retreat Center in Leyden MA, with the option to live in or commute to the practice.  Some work will be in doors, some outdoors.

fire ceremonyIt will incorporate traditional fire ceremony.

Everyone who comes will likely find this experience more than they anticipated, more than they possibly even imagined.  The majority of participants in this work, previously, report just that.  Even those who have come for years.  (One participant, who is an advanced student, with over 8 years of practice, states the ceremony in the Stone Chamber was the most profound she has ever  experienced, even moreso than our practices in ancient sites of UK, such as, Stonehenge, or in Egypt, and Peru.)

We look forward to seeing you.

 I offer this with much love and grace.

Many blessings,

Zacciah
