Vocal Awakening

A journey through the energy centres to Awaken your voice for healing and expansion

Introduction: Intention & Permission

Welcome beautiful soul ❤️

It is such an honour to share this work with you. Thank you for joining me on this adventure!

This course is not intended to teach you “how to sing”. In fact, I’d prefer we ditch the term “course” and consider this a “sacred journey” to connect you with your divine wind instrument, your voice.

This journey is designed for sound healers, shamanic practitioners and aspiring sacred space holders who wish to connect with sounds beyond this realm and beyond the conceptual mind. Here we let go of how we “think” we should sound and allow ourselves to receive and transmit through our sensory beings. Learn how to fully open your song channel so you can create healing sounds with ease and joy, whilst strengthening your relationship with your voice.

To support us in our fullest expression, we’ll be working with the energy centres in the body and the associated sound frequencies to open our song channel and blast away any blocks that hold us back from connecting with our voices.

Let’s take a brief moment to reflect on the history of singing…

We have been singing long before language was invented. No matter how isolated or remote, there is no human culture on the planet that doesn’t sing. Not only is this sacred practice ancient and universal, but it has served as a critical function for human social connection, physical wellbeing, and a wide range of spiritual purposes (prayer, invoking spirits or gods, celebrating rites of passage, story telling, etc.).

Aside from various religious practices, the sacred nature of singing has become less of a spiritual endeavour, and more geared towards entertainment and commercialisation. My aim is to bring back the sacredness of singing and empower people to reconnect with their innate self healing abilities.

My intention, which is very alive in the work that I do as a Medicine Woman, is to raise the vibration of humanity.

Are you ready to raise your vibration and the vibration of humanity? Let’s DO IT!!

This an invitation for you to remember the ancient wisdom that resides deep in your soul. This isn’t about “sounding good” or hitting the “right notes”. This is about connecting to and building a relationship with the most healing instrument on the planet - your voice.

As we invite more space to play, we create more opportunities for source to channel sounds through us. And when allow ourselves to move beyond the “time” / “space” paradigm, we can connect with our ancestors, spirit guides and other beings of light that wish to channel healing frequencies through us.

Let us begin by giving ourselves FULL permission as we embark on this sacred journey!

Grab that notebook and pen! Write this down…

I lovingly give myself permission to share my soul through my voice LOUD and PROUD. I fearlessly allow myself to explore my divine wind instrument pursuit of activating my voice - without judgement or self criticism

I invite my ancestors, spirit guides and any other beings of the light to join me on this pilgrimage to the heart - to meet and develop my voice for my highest good and the highest good of humanity.

Let the liberation journey commence!

MULADHARA: Connecting with Your Roots

The Muladhara (or root chakra) is located at the base of your spine and is associated with safety, stability, security, home and belonging. It is associated with the earth element and the colour red.

When blocked, we can feel anxious, ungrounded or fearful. Pairing awareness and intention into this centre, we can use our voices to consciously send energy to this space to clear away any stagnant energy that is blocking us from feeling safe, grounded and supported in our lives and our ability to express our truth.

Let’s drop in and connect with this centre...

Close down your eyes and bring your full awareness to this space. Call to mind a moment (or moments) you didn’t feel it was safe to express your truth or share your voice aloud. What feelings are present in this space? What images come to mind?

Take a few moments and write down everything that came to mind.

Now jot down today’s mantra: "I am fully supported by the universe and give myself permission to share my voice with the world"

Every energy centre has a corresponding frequency, or note. In the case of the Muladhara, the corresponding frequency is the note of “C”.

Keeping the vibration of the above mantra in your heart, I invite you to sing along with the crystal bowl as I play. Focus on the area at the base of your spin and visualise an orb of red light pulsating and expanding with this light.

Remember - this is not about “sounding good” or hitting the “right note”. This is an opportunity for you to consciously send healing vibrations to this energy centre, blasting away any blocks around safe and grounded expression.

Allow yourself space to rest in these vibrations and use whatever final “whooshing” sound you would like to visualise the release and clearing of any dark energy in this centre - sending it down into the earth, through your metaphoric roots, to be served as compost for the earth.

For the next week, prioritise time in nature (preferably barefoot) and continue to tune into the vibration of the above mantra as you practice opening this centre with your voice.

Journal prompts / things to contemplate:

  • In what ways can I fully support myself in sharing my voice?

  • Imagine you are on top of a mountain, singing your wishes and dreams out to the universe. Feel the support of the mountain beneath your feet. Feel the support of the earth below you. Rest in this space and revisit this place often.

The Svadhisthana (or sacral chakra) is located below the naval and is associated with passion, creativity, intuition, pleasure, and desire. It is associated with the element of water and the colour orange.

Let’s drop in and connect with this centre...

For the next week, give yourself permission to be creative, without getting hung up on the results. Courageously explore new facets of your voice as you tune into the vibration of the above mantra, allowing the vibrations of your voice to further open this energy centre.

Journal prompts / things to contemplate:

Pay attention to your dreams and use your voice to express whatever wants to come out - let go of the desire for it to make sense or sound “good”. The more you practice opening your channel, the easier it will be to connect with the Universal wisdom and express it using your divine wind instrument.
