We invite you to join Sonja Drakulich for her first course with the Academy, Voice and Ritual. A course that will dive deep into the process of unveiling our essential power and freedom through the voice. We will implement vocal technique, meditation, qigong, visualization, ritual and toning, based in esoteric Daoism, western mysticism, and yogic arts.
We will be expanding and refining our voices through highly effective, liberating vocal techniques and exercises, and discovering the healing phenomena of coherence through our voice and nervous system regulation through breath and tone.
Our speech and language greatly changes our life. We will bring conscious awareness into our habits of internal and external dialogues, and implement transformational practices to ritualize our voices for conscious creation.
We will unveil our pure, natural tone, discovering overtones and the full range of our voice. We will open ourselves to grace and experience ourselves as a pure vessel for the creative force.
The creative process of the voice has the power to transform unlike anything else in this world. We only need to show up for this process while increasing our awareness. The foundation for our sound and expression lies in the increased ability and practice of sensate awareness and embodiment. In these times of being more isolated from the natural world than ever before, many of us have unconsciously learned to survive slightly outside the body, with gaps of presence of the form and function.
Practices for heightened presence, focus and expanding ones awareness will be practiced along with the art of deep listening, refining our instruments as artists and creators, and thriving in our lives and relationships.
Course content will include:
- The voice as our powerful instrument of creation
- Our connection to Logos through ancient sound technologies
