This is an introduction into the Listening Voice Process, a 9 step journey of descent into the body through sound. You start by shifting the awareness from the mind to the breath and connect to your central channel. You move out of survival breathing and into full-bodied sensation. As you drop deeper resistance will rise to the surface. The voice helps us to move this resistance. From stagnation to movement, you will release the limitations and outdated conditions of the mind.

It is from a place of connection that you retrieve denied, shamed and frozen expressions and bring them home. Moving away from the concept of ‘training’ the voice, instead you will come into relationship with your honest expression of the moment. This expression reveals itself through sensation, leading you to your natural alignment.

Central to this practice is a deep trust in the intelligence of the body and the natural expression of your sound. You will remember how to use your voice to clear the noise in your system and allow your body to re-organise itself back to harmony.

We will explore the voice in all of its forms, from creative expression and improvisation, to methods of release work with sound. We will sing old songs and we will listen to the songs that want to be born of the moment.

This work is for those who wish to explore their voice and body to release constricted energy and connect to their authentic creative expression. You do not need any previous vocal experience to attend.

This workshop is for you if ::

• You want to explore your creative expression through improvised sound and voice work

• You work with the body in a therapeutic way and want to incorporate sound into your practice

• You have a curiosity about how the voice can move stagnation and energy in the body

• You hold space for clients and want to access more depth in your listening skills

• You want to explore your voice in a new way that is not based on traditional training but about a release of your authentic sound

• You already have a healing practice (cranio-sacral, massage, trauma work) and you know that the voice holds a key to accessing another level of healing with your clients

• You want to release your natural voice and bring more harmony into your body

This process is not about forcing to heal, but about listening, presence and a surrender into the emergent nature of the moment.

Together we will peel back the layers of control and quieten the noise in our mind in order to step fearlessly into our full expression and power.

We will sing and sound until everything becomes what it always was:

Music.
