Curious about sound healing? Want to add sound healing to your repertoire but don’t know where to start? Do you have instruments but don’t know how to play or what to do?

Adding the element of sound to your personal or professional wellness practice can help to enhance relaxation, release stagnant emotions, reduce stress and tension, improve mental clarity, revitalize the body and energy field, and leave you feeling lighter, happier, and open.

Come study with Katie Cavenagh and learn about what sound healing is (from an energetic and scientific perspective), techniques for practice, and how to safely and effectively facilitate a sound healing session.

As sound healing becomes more and more popular, understanding basic techniques and concepts will put you ahead of the game. In sound healing classes we cover an array of different instruments, techniques, and ways to incorporate the benefits of working with sound within your own personal journey.

Classes run several times a month and include: introduction to sound healing, instrumental classes (bowls, gongs, percussion, and voice), intensives, elemental sound, full 30 hour certification, and ReikiSound (must be reiki attuned). Small groups and in-depth information along with practical tips and techniques get you well on your way to developing or growing your sound healing practice.

A little learning can go a long way when working with sound to help you facilitate effective sessions. Learn best practices and what mistakes to avoid when setting up, creating, playing, and marketing your events. Just discovering a few simple exercises can bring you to a whole new level within your personal practice with sound, meditation, and your innate ability to heal yourself.

Hands-on, practical exercises will set you up to facilitate sound baths for yourself and others as well as help you develop and hone your skills for playing. Use these practice techniques to create beautiful soundscapes, and rest assured you’ll always be prepared, knowing how to build sound baths and meditations with a simple formula.

Upcoming classes:
4/12 Singing Bowls Level 1($250)
4/26 Introduction to Vocals for Sound Healing

Want to learn sound healing? Check out my upcoming classes at The Red Barn in Durham!

The use of sound as "medicine" for healing dates back to ancient times. We have been pulled out of the natural tuning of the Earth with our current music system.

Let's revisit the sounds of nature, the cosmos, and life from a new perspective that allows a deeper connection, understanding, and a return to a balanced state of love.

Hi Friends! Katie Cavenagh here with a quick card pull for the weekend 🔮

Deck: Urban Crow Oracle by MJ Cullinane
Friday Card Pull: Direction

Message: Today you are being called to reevaluate your focus. We are in a powerful time of transition and manifestation, and where your attention goes, energy flows.

What are you focused on? Is it aligned with what you desire? Is it constructive or destructive (you'll know by how you feel)?

The direction of your attention is a key aspect of your manifestations, and when you're focused on your destination, it's much easier to get there.

Sometimes you may be called to change directions, and this may be happening for you now.

It's not anything "bad", it just means that there is somewhere better for you to focus. This new direction is more aligned and offers more fulfillment, satisfaction, and opportunities for you.

Today, ask yourself where you are heading based on your words, thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and actions.

Is this the direction of building what you desire?

If so, what is one thing you can do today to foster that growth?

If not, what needs to change so you can be more aligned?

Don't forget that our Harvest Fair at The Red Barn is THIS SUNDAY, October 6th from 11-5pm where you can get readings and healings from your favorite practitioners, as well as shop local vendors and artisans!

I'm getting a new shipment of oracle decks and they'll be here in The Sacred Cocoon at The Red Barn in Durham right in time for the fair! Come check it out and say hi!

I'll also be doing readings ($30/15min), pre-book or walk-in.

Feeling heavy because of this new moon eclipse in libra? Things are being moved for us so that we can better align with our next level. This is a time to rest and surrender to the movement the universe is providing for us.

Why not take that rest and surrender to heart and join me and Deborah Page in the Soulshine Salt Cavern at The Red Barn in Durham for Reiki, Salt, & Sound - October 4th?

You'll receive hands on reiki healing from Deborah and a reiki infused sound bath from me. The experience is designed to help you release stagnant energy and reconnect with your divine light.

Reach out to either one of us to save your spot! Limited space available.
