Yoga
of Sound Training Certification Course

Dr. John Beaulieu
N.D., Ph.D. and Thea Keats Beaulieu
January 25 - 31, 2009
Course Details
In the Yoga of Sound Training you
will discover the importance of sound
in yoga tradition and learn different
methods to integrate sound and healing.
When yoga traditions are united with
modern science the result is an accountable
approach for using sound in the healing
arts and a greater understanding of
the use of sound in yoga practices.
Yoga of Sound Training integrates
Cymatics, the science of wave phenomena,
molecular research, and yoga philosophy
into a practical and effective approach
for working with sound.
The training begins
with teachings on the universality
of vibration and how to perceive ourselves
as beings of sound through the practice
of special methods of observation
and evaluation. Special emphasis is
given to understanding and perceiving
the universal movement of sound and
rhythm in all aspects of life, and
developing the skills to evaluate
these movements into quantifiable
behaviors. These behavioral categories
were given the names Ether, Air, Fire,
Water, and Earth in yoga philosophy
and were used as the basis for the
application of sound, music, visualization,
movement, and dance in healing and
yoga practices. Students will learn
how to evaluate and work with the
five elements for healing and increased
well-being in all aspects of life.
Specific methods are taught to tune
the nervous system and balance the
five elements. These include the use
of BioSonic tuning forks, toning,
five element voice, movement and music
analysis, visualization, and the art
of mantra. Special emphasis will be
given to the effect of "OM-ing"
and other uses of sound in yoga classes.
The material presented
emphasizes the relationship between
the healing arts and the practice
of yoga. Sound and yoga teachings
can be integrated into the practices
of medicine, nursing, massage, acupuncture,
energy healing modalities, psychotherapy,
osteopathic and chiropractic medicine.
Understanding the relationship between
sound and yoga empowers the practice
and teaching of yoga. If you have
ever wondered about sound and music
and how it effects yourself and others
or if you want to learn how to use
sound to help yourself and others
--- then this course is for you.
BioSonic Repatterning™
training is world recognized and represents
the highest training standards in
the field of Sound Healing.Certificates
recognised worldwide will be available
for all graduates of the course. Please

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
The ragas are the most important link
to the essence of Indian classical music.
The appreciation and experience of the
raga becomes profoundly meaningful to
spiritual seekers as well as to the
trained musician. The word “rag”
is derived from the Sanskrit “raga”
which means “color,” or
“passion.” Ragas, therefore,
may be thought of as an acoustic method
of coloring the mind of the listener
with an emotion. Ragas are not just
musical scales or modes, they are described
by master musicians as divinely inspired
melodic entities.
This class focuses
on the main characteristics of several
ragas by cultivating familiarity with
the pitches and tonal movement of the
alap or their introductory melodic phrases.
We will discover the beauty of the shrutis
(micro-tones that are revealed in the
space between the notes), and the transformational
power of the rasas (a rasa is that which
gives “taste” to the mind),
which relates to aesthetic sentiments
such as love, joy, devotion, wonder,
heroism, peace, and detachment evoked
by the rendering of the ragas.
We will experience
raga-based styles of devotional chanting:
Dhrupad singing, Saregam, Khyal and
Kirtan. Students will be able to appreciate
different ragas, create a vocal practice,
learn about vocal technique, and get
acquainted with various modalities of
music healing applications informed
by devotional chanting. Ragas are the
greatest music teachers, because through
the traditional practice of call and
response, these awakening melodies stimulate
our memory, while refining our senses
deeply and delightfully.
Into The Core of The Raga &
Rasa System,
we explore the architecture of music
and emotions,
unfolding the art melodic movement,
and deepening the experience of MANTRA

while refining our senses deeply and
delightfully.
Ragas
are not just scales, ragas are inspiring
melodies that have the power to refine
your voice quality, balancing our nervous
system, shifting our emotions, and transform
consciousness
immediately, deeply and delightfully.
Ragas are "alive", have no
history since they are renewed each
time they are performed, becoming the
best music teachers.
The raga
is the most important concept that any
student of Indian or Western music should
understand to seep listening, improvise
& compose music. The Hindi/Urdu
word "rag" is derived from
the Sanskrit "raga" which
means "colour, or passion".
It is linked to the Sanskrit word "ranj"
which means "to colour" (Apte
1987). Therefore rag may be thought
of as an acoustic method of colouring
the mind of the listener with an emotion.
Musically, ragas are melodic arrangements.
Their origins is ancient and sacred,
they were composed by celestial beings
and channeled by Indian Masters and
lineages of musicianship through oral
transmission. There are 75.000 ragas
and they developed through a modal structure.
The slow development of the melody is
the heart of this music. The haunting
melodies an the microtonal intervalic
logic are regarded as the “color
of the mind” , being the result
of tonal arrangements ruled by cosmological
and aesthetic laws related with dimensions
of light ( i.e.: night and day ). A
raga is complete when it achieves its
tonal taste or “rasa” which
is another element in classical Indian
music.
Rasa
is perceived as a sentiment, which could
be described as an aesthetic experience.
Although rasa is unique, in practice
we distinguish several “savors”
according to the emotion which colors
it : erotic love, pathetic, devotional,
comic, fearful, repugnant, horrific,
heroic, fantastic, furious, peaceful.
The individual feels immersed in that
mood to the exclusion of all else including
himself. Thus, aesthetic experience
is a transformation of not merely feeling,
but equally of cognition, “ a
condensed understanding in the mode
of ecstasy “; the ecstasy of the
intellect, an ecstasy itself inscrutable
and illuminating. In the Vedas the experience
of rasa is described as a flash of super-worldly
blinding light, which appears to whom
the knowledge of ideal beauty is innate
and intuitive. It is an experience impossible
to analyze.
We will explore the
meaning of rasa through images of taste,
relish, essence, something like the
nectar of the fruit, the best or finest
part of it. It is like perfume, which
comes from matter but it is not easy
to describe or comprehend, since has
non-physical properties, often yielding
pleasure. In its subtlest sense, rasa
comes to signify a state of heightened
delight, the kind of bliss that can
be experienced only by the spirit (
“ananda”). It is a pure
delight that only the presence of a
work of art can make as feel. It is
perceived as an emotional pleasure,
which Hindus refer to as the “taste
of the mind”, or the delight of
reason, an inspiring energy which is
experienced by sharing a feeling and
suddenly understanding the essence of
a work of art. Therefore, rasa describes
a state of enhanced emotional perception
produced by the presence of musical
energy and is applicable to all creative
expression, being particularly powerful
in the art of healing with sound and
music.

HERE’S WHAT
A 2006 CIIS GRADUATE AND A STAFF
MEMBER HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE VALUE
OF LEARNING SOUND HEALING AND ABOUT
SILVIA NAKKACH, THE SOUND CERTIFICATE
CREATOR & COORDINATOR:
“My own
experience over many years as a
yoga practitioner and teacher, as
well as a Vedic chanting and Carnatic
music student, has led me to seek
out teachers and guides who really
understand the field of sound therapy
as practitioners as well as scholars.
Silvia (Nakkach) is a leader in
the world of healing with the voice,
and is able to transmit her knowledge
on multiple levels. Every class
I was fortunate enough to participate
in with her was filled with laughter,
sweetness, and a deep sense of connection
to the source of sound. She is a
pioneer in her ability to incorporate
various traditions, and really express
the heart and core of each one with
great integrity, wisdom, and a sense
of playfulness. Most importantly,
she has an incredible ability to
connect with each student and to
bring out his or her highest potential
as a healer.”
Jake Pollack, 2006
Graduate, MA, Integrative Health
Studies
"I am thrilled about the
new sound healing certificate program.
As a hypnotherapist and past student
of Silvia Nakkach, I’ve learned
how to use sound as a container
for clients’ healing and how
sound carries the client deeper
and more inward or from one state
of awareness to another. Personally,
sound healing has been libratory
as it has helped me to move out
of the mind’s habits and perceptions
during the highs and lows of my
life. The primary realizations I
have had about how sound can function
in community, in the client-therapist
relationship, and individually have
been priceless. I'm excited about
what else I will learn".

Silvia
Nakkach and the Yoga of the Voice
at Sivananda Yoga Farm
with Swami SitaRamananda
Yoga
of Voice
06/26/09 to 06/28/09
Taught by Sylvia Nakkach

Just as activation
of subtle psychic centers of the body
can lead to an experience of transcendence,
the contagious bliss of devotional chanting
generates a sensation of boundless radiance
and openness—nurturing the intense
yearning of the heart to unite with
the divine, liberating energy, and providing
us with the opportunity to alter unwanted
feelings and to restore vitality instantaneously.
Embark on a beguiling sound journey
as Ms. Nakkach introduces shakti practices
for sound and vocal improvisation to
pacify the mind, balance the body, and
transform consciousness. These practices,
based on Nada-Yoga, Tibetan incantations,
magic mantras, shamanic songs from Native
American, Afro-Brazilian and Amazon
traditions, Indian ragas and vocal meditation
exercises, can be applied to sound healing
modalities, yoga practice, chanting
circles, and psycho-spiritual growth.
The voice wanders through an ocean of
trancelike empowering sounds, creating
optimum coordination between left and
right brain hemispheres that results
in decreased muscle tension, lower blood
pressure and improved circulation. As
the voice puts the body at ease, we
enjoy relief from stress, emotional
harmony, increased mental acuity, and
enhanced creativity, fostering progressive
resonance with the path of the shamans,
the artists, the children, and the yogis.

The
Mysticism of Sound
and Musical Mindfulness
Silvia Nakkach
Join composer and vocalist
Silvia Nakkach on a journey through the
transformative power of music, and experience
firsthand ancient and contemporary sound
tools as a healing modality. Since time
immemorial, sound has been used as a gateway
to transcendence and the exploration of
consciousness by shamans, yogis, mystics,
artists, and scientists. Sound expresses
the relationship between human and cosmic
orders, and it can deepen our experience
of sacredness and love.
This course offers a comprehensive
and systematic understanding of how sound
underlies our most fundamental existence,
and how music and intention can be used
to assist psychospiritual insight and transformation.
The coursework integrates the power of mantra
to transcend the mind’s limitations.
Participants also explore spiritual healing
with sound, involving instruction in the
music of the Sama Veda, Sufi teachings,
Indian ragas, and Rudolph Steiner’s
studies on the etheric tone. Through chanting
and awareness practices, participants gain
knowledge of how sound can induce ecstatic
states of consciousness as it enhances ritual,
shamanic journeys, and meditation.
Silvia Nakkach,MA,
MMT, is an award-winning composer, a former
therapist in Argentina, and pioneer in the
field of sound and transformation of consciousness.
She is the founding director of Vox Mundi
School of the Voice, which is dedicated
to teaching and preserving sacred musical
traditions. She is also a teacher and the
academic advisor for the Sound, Voice and
Music Healing Certificate at CIIS. For more
than 25 years, Nakkach has studied Hindustani
music with Maestro Ali Akbar Khan and dhrupad
singing with Ritwik Sanyal, PhD. Nakkach
leads retreats in sacred music in the United
States, Brazil, India, and Spain.

Alchemical Divination and Yogic
Chant
Conducted by
Ralph Metzner, Ph.D., and Silvia Nakkach,
M.A.

photo by Ralph Metzner

Silvia & Ralph at Ions
dinner, photo by Sergio Lub
Alchemy, akin to shamanism
and yoga, is the ancient art and science
of elemental transformation – at physical,
emotional, mental and spiritual levels.
Divination is a structured inquiry to access
inner knowledge of the past, for healing
and problem solving; and of the future,
for visioning and guidance. We work in the
spirit of the Roman deity Janus, god of
doorways and passageways, whose two faces
are turned to the past and the (probable)
futures. We use concentrative light-fire
meditation, supported by sounding and toning,
to raise consciousness beyond the usual
timespace framework and facilitate the integration
of the insights received.
As part of the sacred sound
experience of this workshop, we explore
Indigenous shamanic traditions that use
rhythms to induce altered state trance journeys,
and 'spirit songs' for healing, as in Amazonian
medicine ceremonies, and Yogic traditions
that use mantras or sacred seed syllables
(like OM) to bring about one-pointed concentration
and deep inner states of absorption. As
we delve into the transformative qualities
of devotional chant, we learn about Nada
Yoga (seed sounds), Shabda Yoga (mantra),
Bhava Yoga (raga), Tibetan Tantric chant,
and other practices of consciousness transformation,
healing, and divination, facilitated by
sound.
Ralph Metzner, Ph.D., is
a psychotherapist, workshop leader, and
professor at CIIS who has been involved
in the study of consciousness and transformational
practices (including psychoactive plants
and substances, shamanic journeys, toning
and chanting, and light-fire yogic meditations)
for more than 40 years. His books include
Teonanácatl, The Unfolding Self,
and Green Psychology.
For more Information on Alchemical Divination
visit: http://www.greenearthfound.org
The Metzner Alchemical
Divination practices have been developed
by Ralph Metzner on the basis of extensive
experiential research on altered states
of consciousness. These practices have been
applied and tested over the past twenty
years in the contexts of psychological work
with individuals and groups. This is the
first time they are being taught for those
wishing to learn to use them with others
as well as themselves.
Divination is practiced
in many traditions and is generally recognized
as a process of obtaining intuitive spiritual
insight. In essence, it involves a structured
inquiry into questions of the past, for
healing and resolving problems, or the future,
for visioning and obtaining guidance. Alchemy
is the ancient art and science of elemental
transformation, which in modern times was
re-interpreted by C.G. Jung and his followers
as psychospiritual transformation using
symbolic or imaginal processes. Combining
these two ancient traditions with a unique
blend of contemporary depth psychology and
shamanistic spirituality --
The Metzner Alchemical
Divination practices are rooted in:
• the transformational teachings of
psychospiritual alchemy
• core East-West teachings of humans
as multi-dimensional Beings of Light
• shamanistic principles and practices
of connecting with the spirits of nature
• a scientific systems worldview describing
the interconnected Web of Life
The basic purpose of these
divinations is to help individuals obtain
deeper experiential understanding, problem
resolution and visionary inspiration for
their life path in its intrapsychic, interpersonal,
professional, creative and spiritual dimensions.

We are all born with
the innate ability to sing, to dance,
and to live a celebratory creative lifestyle.
Music is one of the most natural ways
through which we can heal and celebrate
our spirit. Singing, chanting, drumming,
and playing the piano or any instrument
allows us to nurture a loving relationship
with ourselves through music.
This workshop provides
a humorous and energetic environment
for practicing exercises that will deepen
our relationship with our own natural
musical self. Through improvisational
techniques and musical gestures from
the music of India, Brazil, Africa,
and the West, students discover how
distant worlds of music complement and
complete each other, engaging in optimally
balanced left and right brain activity.
This all-levels workshop
is designed to help you develop confidence
through creating a positive musical
experience and cultivating a balanced
approach to a long-term musical journey.

David Darling,
cellist, composer, and educator, has
been opening hearts to the mystery of
sound for four decades. He is celebrated
for his energetic, loving, and accepting
style in emancipating the musical soul
in those he teaches. He has produced
numerous recordings, as well as released
eight solo albums and more than three
dozen collaborative efforts with such
diverse artists as Paul Winter and Jan
Garbarek.
Silvia Nakkach,
MA, MMT, is an award-winning composer
and pioneer in the field of sound and
transformation of consciousness. She
is the founding director of Vox Mundi
School of the Voice and a teacher and
the academic advisor for the Sound,
Voice and Music Healing Certificate
at CIIS.

Medicine
Melodies: The Music That Healers Hear
Silvia Nakkach & Val Serrant
Val Serrant
In the Universe, everything
sings: plants, animals, waterfalls,
bones, people, the stars, the rain,
and many things we do not see; even
silence makes a sound. The shaman hears
the hidden music of the Universe and
sings it back through “medicine
melodies,” simple tonal configurations
that reflect a sacred unity with nature
and have the power to heal body, mind,
and spirit. Many people in our own culture
today are visited by such melodies—as
if spontaneous transmissions from nature
or the spirit world are “singing
in” to the person rather than
the person “singing out.”
Medicine melodies can
be found in all traditions: from lullabies
to Hebrew davennen; the kirtans, mantras,
and ragas from India; Tibetan ritual
prayers; the zhikrs of the Sufis; Buddhist
sutras and tantric chants; and indigenous
songs from Africa and the Americas.
In this workshop, we will take a musical
journey through songs from many of these
cultures, exploring how spiritual melodicism
and timeless rhythms make potent medicine.
We will listen to healing melodies within
the music of the classical Western repertoire
from Mozart, Mahler, and Bach. And,
we will experience the emotional magic
that comes from singing the Icaros of
the Peruvian Amazon Basin and other
shamanic traditions, feeling how this
music clears and opens energetic channels,
gives birth to kindness, and connects
us with love.
This day-long workshop
is for anyone who longs to work more
knowingly with music and the voice.
You will bring home a repertoire of
medicine melodies, as well as practical
guidance for developing your practice
of “singing in.” Bring an
instrument if you have one, and a journal.

Melodies. Emotional Magic & Music

THE FACULTY:
" I met Mayumi
in 1986 in an memorable artist retreat
with Thich Nhat Hanh in Southern California.
Lately, we have been collaborating as
teachers of the annual Wild and Wise Women
Retreat at Spirit Rock. We both share
the belief that artistic expression is
not only the property of artists, but
is owned by everyone. When we still the
inner voices that inhibit creativity,
artist expression is spontaneously liberated,
and the imagination is inspired, In the
experience of openness, clarity and emptiness,
drawing and chanting, become un-interrupted
expression, inner awareness, happiness
and compassion are heightened, becoming
the basic software for daily enlightenment.
This retreat offers the opportunity to
empower your confidence and devotional
self, by deepening the connection between
creative expression, grace and spiritual
practice.”
