The venue is situated amidst beautiful, mature gardens with a variety of sacred spaces which provide an inspiring and nurturing environment, which together with the wholesome food provide a wonderful weekend retreat. The all-inclusive aspect of the course encourages the group to bond and offer mutual support.
In 2020 this will be the 15th year that the training programme has been successfully run at Primrose Centre. Please see the Primrose website for inspired feedback comments.

This can be an opening to begin the journey to discover our indigenous souls.

SOUND HEALING AND NATURE

COST : £205 including 2 nights single accomodation and food
VENUE : Primrose Haven, Primrose Haven, Felindre, Brecon, Powys, LD3 0ST
DETAILS : The weekend will integrate the healing power of nature into our healing voice work. We will work with the sounding traditions of people that lived close to nature and used sound to deepen their connection with their environment. Primrose Haven contains many beautiful gardens and natural spaces. The retreat will be held in the Sound Peace Chamber, the Celtic Roundhouse and in some outside spaces such as the Peace Garden, the Stone Circle with the four directions and elements, the Emissary Wheel and beside a mountain stream in the nearby woods. We will explore some of the deeper healing potential of nature and use sound to connect with this, which will encourage a sense of belonging within us.
We will gain an understanding of the qualities of the elements - fire, water, earth and air - and explore our relationships to them and the way they influence our lives.
We will demonstrate the ways that sound can be used to heal ourselves and others and the healing power of sound in nature. Nature can provide a very supportive environment in which to release pain and disharmony through sound. We will work with this potential on an individual and group level.
We will share our experience of the Damanhur projects of the Music of the Plants and Orienting Trees to help raise the global network of tree consciousness.

MASHA BENNETT · Greater Manchester — Oxfordshire — Derbyshire
GONG BATH MEDITATION
DATE : Approximately monthly, contact Masha for further details
TIME : 11:00 till 13:00 at weekends, 19:30 till 21:30 on weekday evenings
COST : £12 or £9 concessions
VENUE : Little Nine Heaven Kung Fu School, Spartan House, Unit 3, Green Lane, Romiley, Greater Manchester, SK6 3JG
DETAILS : Experience the profound healing and deep relaxation with the sounds of the gongs and other percussion instruments, in this sound meditation with Masha at the Little Nine Heaven Kung Fu School in Romiley, Stockport. Other venues, in Glossop and Hadfield, are sometimes used.
WHAT TO BRING
Bring something comfortable to lie on (sleeping bag, folded up duvet etc), a blanket and a pillow, so that you can make a cosy "nest" for yourself, which will help you feel relaxed and enjoy the beautiful healing sounds. It helps to have a bottle of water with you, as we need to be well-hydrated, especially after the session, in order to get the full benefits from the healing sounds.
BEFORE AND AFTER
It is best not to have any alcohol or any other mind-altering substances for 24 hours before and 24 hours after the gong bath. Try not to schedule any other appointments or tasks immediately after the gong bath meditation, as it is best to take it easy if you can, since the healing effects continue for some time afterwards.
FEEDBACK
Examples of feedback from previous gong bath participants:
"My first ‘gong bath’ experience - I had no idea what to expect but this was the most special, beautiful and relaxing way to see in the Spring Equinox."
"An amazing out of this world session."
"The most beautiful session to experience with Masha. Deeply relaxing and a great spiritual journey to an improved sense of health, wellbeing and connection. Such gorgeous sounds reverberated through my whole body and filled me with a sense of calm and stillness."
"For me Masha's Gong Bath Meditations have been like a rapid track into a very deep meditative state. I do not experience this depth as soon through other practices. I love it and I will be back."
TO BOOK : Advance booking is essential. Contact Masha by email at masha@practicalhappiness.co.uk

“Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in.”
(Leonard Cohen)
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
WHO IS THE COURSE FOR?
Practitioners and healers working with any aspect of sound healing or sound therapy including the voice, gongs, singing bowls, drums and other instruments. It is also suitable for other holistic practitioners such as yoga teachers, massage and reiki therapists who do not necessarily use sound in their work, but may encounter traumatised clients where the treatment could potentially trigger a trauma reaction. This workshop can be counted towards annual CPD hours for members of the College of Sound Healing.
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?
~ how to recognise the signs of trauma in their clients
~ important differences between developmental trauma and shock trauma/PTSD
~ the basic neuroscience of trauma and how to apply it in practise
~ significance of Adverse Childhood Experiences
~ the essential components on trauma healing
~ why sound healing and some other holistic therapies may be particularly effective in releasing trauma and how it may also trigger traumatic reactions
~ the risk of vicarious traumatisation in therapists and how to help to prevent it
~ a range of simple techniques and approaches that will help both them and their clients stay safe and grounded during and after the session and in between sessions
~ steps that need to be taken to assess and manage potential risk with a client who is in severe distress
~ options for referral to trauma specialists and other mental health professionals
Please note: Attendance on this workshop does *not* qualify you to *treat* trauma (for that, you would need to undertake a much more extensive course of practical and theoretical study). What it *will* do is: (a) give you knowledge and resources to be a safer, more mindful practitioner when you work with people who may have been traumatised, and (b) help you facilitate your group and individual sessions to maximise opportunities for healing / minimise chances of re-traumatisation.
FEES & PAYMENTS
The course fee is £200, with a £50 deposit to secure your place. The balance must be paid 4 weeks before the course and there will be no refunds thereafter. Prior to that date, cancellations will incur a £25 admin fee. Payment is accepted by cheque or BACS transfer. Your place will be confirmed on receipt of a deposit.
Included in the fee:
~ tuition and post course support if needed
~ comprehensive course manual in electronic format
~ CPD certificates
~ light refreshments in the morning and during the two breaks each day
~ please note lunch is not included and you will need to bring or purchase your own - there are shops in Wallingford (within a short driving distance)
RELATED WORKSHOPS
The 2-day Trauma Awareness for Holistic Therapists workshop covers very similar ground, but within a wider context of complementary and alternative medicine, and is taught by Masha a couple of times a year in different locations around the country. Please enquire by email masha@practicalhappiness.co.uk.
YOUR SELF-CARE
It is important to note that whilst some aspects of this course may be healing, it’s main purpose is educational - it is not intended as a replacement for personal therapy. As this course deals with trauma and other potentially distressing material, before booking your place, please be sure that you are able to take part in discussions that may touch on some difficult topics, without detriment to yourself. It is particularly important that you have enough sleep, do not over work, eat well, drink plenty of water and take time to connect to nature, in the few days before the course as well as after it.

“It has been a privilege to benefit from the experience of such a well-informed, connected and skilful presenter. It has been inspiring and deeply effective.”
“It was excellent! The publicity describes what you get very clearly… You held a safe, well boundaried space - I was able to be present with the information, and my own responses to it.”
"Very informative course, I feel like I have learned so much to help me with understanding why people react and what happens in the brain. You're so easy to talk to and so knowledgeable."
"I am so glad I came on this course - it has filled a hole in my knowledge that I didn't know I had before I came."
"Thank you so much. I have never been in a workshop that has held my attention all the way through. You are a remarkable teacher."

WHY LAUGHTER?
Laughter...
*Boosts the immune system.
*Reduces the risk of heart disease. Laughing expands the inner walls of the arteries which increases the ability of blood to flow around the body.
*Reduces blood pressure: When you laugh, the blood flow increases, circulation improves & your blood pressure rises. When you stop laughing, your blood pressure drops back to its baseline. This relaxing effect helps to lower your baseline blood pressure.
*Is a natural painkiller.
Belly laughing effectively ‘massages’ the abdominal organs. The blood flow to these organs is increased and their functioning is improved. Laughing instantly reduces the levels of stress hormones such as cortisol, epinephrine (adrenaline).
Laughter boosts the production of serotonin, a natural anti-depressant.
