Details of this retreat
SOURCE RESONANCE is a next-level training and journey through the healing power of sound and the sacred power of music, converging ancient wisdom and ground-breaking science in a universal paradigm of vibrational medicine. It is this convergence of science & spirituality that illuminates universal aspects of our humanity and reality, opening up new possibilities of existence and evolution.
In this training intensive retreat, we shall be initiated into this new paradigm of an energetic, vibrational and multi-dimensional reality and learn why sound healing is one of the most significant emergent medical fields. Our journey will reconnect and root us to the ancients and their 'sonic mysticism' and sacred musical arts in a diversity of global cultural expressions. We shall learn basic and advanced skills of sacred sounding with the voice to foster an individual healing practice, as well as learn how to conduct Soundbaths and Sound Journeys for groups and therapeutic environments. We will delve into the exciting potentials of one-on-one Sound Therapy with Tuning Fork modalities that merge Chinese Medicine & Yogic technique to heal the body on a fundamental, energetic level. We will also explore mantra work and the Yoga of Sound from the ancient Vedic culture of India. And we shall embark on the recovery of the sacredness of music as a force to uplift, transform and connect the world and foster community.
"Attending the Source Resonance Training Intensive has been a profound and magical experience. I am deeply humbled and so grateful for all the teachings I have received from Darren Austin Hall, as well as the unity of so many beautiful souls. I submerged myself into the world of sound where the healing and rebuilding was in a constant flow. We experienced Temazcal, Sound Healing, Song Catching, Cacao Ceremonies, Yoga, Qigong, Ecstatic Dance and much more together as a tribe, where support and compassion was in abundance. I am now ready to transfer all this wisdom into practice."
— Natalie Juul, Source Resonance Costa Rica Intensive participant
This training intensive is taking place at the beautiful and sacred Posada Natura, a water sanctuary for spiritual awakening in Southern Costa Rica, surrounded by beautiful jungle and the sounds of flowing rivers. This will be a most amazing space for us to be in the healing harmonic power of nature to take us deeper into the Sound Work. We will spend lots of time in nature attuning to its healing harmonies. A perfect rejuvenation experience!
A taste of what this magical space offers:
"Our main lodge is the result of nearly 20 years of careful planning, design and construction. Down to the detail, this spacious and open-air palace is the epitome of jungle luxury and will provides plenty of space to relax in your down time. In and around the lodge is where the dining room, kitchen, lounge area, yoga platforms, massage rooms, gift shop, and tea infusions bar are all located. A few steps from our dining area is a beautiful pool oasis. If you’re craving something a little more wild, a 30 second walk will bring you to the banks of the Naranjo river, which is safe for swimming and one of the cleanest fresh water rivers in the world."
