2007 Programs Ending August,
2007
For New Level I 2007-8 programs, beginning Sept, 2007, click here
Zacciah
Blackburn is a
sound healer trained in
classical healing and shamanic traditions, and sacred sound cultures,
and is
practicing in Ascutney, VT, at the Center of Light.
Zacciah is also Co-Director, Board and Trustee member, and Director of
Education for the New England Sound Healing
Research Institute (NESHRI,) a worldwide community of healing
practitioners
broadening the
awareness of sound healing through networking, education, and
scientific research. He is also
co-founder of the World Sound Healing Organization, and the All One Now
network of organizations furthering world peace, healing, and
transformation of human consciousness through simple ceremony,
broadcast live via the internet (www.worldsoundhealing.org,
www.allonenow.org.)
Zacciah has created a broad range of trainings in sound healing
practice, which
couples his deep cognitive and intuitive understanding of sound in
therapeutic
application. These programs are an
in
depth study of the nature of sound and its healing effect on the human
system,
with cognitive and experiential training designed to better our
understanding
of, and therapeutic application in, the use of sound.
Zacciah brings with him a warmth and
radiance that exudes through his
work.
We invite you to join us in this insightful and uplifting program for
personal and professional development.
These programs are offered in
8 weekend trainings, offered one
weekend/month for 8 months beginning January 20-22,
2007; (our 5 day trainings are not currently being offered in
2007. If you have interest in these being provided in your
region, please contact us.)
We recommend
participation in all trainings for the best and
most complete understanding of the nature, use and application of sound
therapies.
However, you may participate in any or all of the
programs.
Zacciah offers a unique understanding, depth, and application of sound
work. We have not found another program with this level of
expertise in all areas covered. We will be guided through the
process of how sound is used, and what the process of healing is, in
oneself and others. We offer the fundamental understanding that
the pathway to becoming a healer is the pathway of one's own
healing. Thus, we will explore the internal and external
dimensions of healing, in ourselves, and in others. We will be
given the opportunity to enter and further this path of understanding
wherever we are upon it, through practical application. And, we
will be given the opportunity to explore how the appropriate and
skilled use of Sacred Sound can bridge consciousness into unseen
dimensions of experience and understanding. The focus is upon
practitioner training, but it cannot come without personal experience
and understanding. While Zacciah is an excellent experienced
facilitator and educator, he believes we are our own best
teachers.
No
prior experience is necessary to fully participate in these
classes. Intuitive sound healing is a process principally of the
heart. No
prior vocal or instrumental training of any kind is necessary to
participate
fully. The classes are appropriate for novice and practitioner,
for those whom wish to
learn or improve their meditational skills, their practitioner skills,
experience healing, and how to heal, in a
fundamental, yet potentially profound manner, and those who wish to
build community. Skilled practitioners will find moving
information, and compelling
exercises, to further their practice. Novices will find skilled
assistance in comprehending, experiencing, and utilizing skills
offered. We are each contributors to this process, in each
training. What we bring with us, and how deeply we are willing to
explore, will bridge the potential to our own infinite understanding.

Certificates
of training
are given to those
completing each phase of this training, with
a special presentation at the end of each series.
Certificates will indicate the level of training completed. The
Level I
programs are a foundation for, and a requirement of, higher level
studies, which will integrate
deeper experiential practical application in therapeutic
settings. See
Advanced Level II program information here.
Additional Program Information
What Others Are Saying About These Programs
Those
wishing to further an Earth based
understanding of sound in ceremony, working with Earth based
energies
utilizing more shamanic methodology, may follow up with our Return
to Beauty programs in Vermont and elsewhere each summer, or our
tour of ancient
Sacred Sites of Great Britain, in
April and May of 2007. We recommend all of
our
sound healers' training programs for those wishing to understand how to
access the subtle
realms of consciousness, to attune, create relation with, and express
deeper awareness in sacred sound, with voice, or instruments. In
2007 we shall begin advanced Shamanic training for those participating
in beginning programs.

create
sacred space, and why? Does the holistic practitioner &
workshop
facilitator have an inextricable responsibility to insure sacred space
is
utilized and maintained when opening clients to sacred mystery, or to
greater
personal awareness? We will explore these and other questions, discuss
professional ethics and care, and learn to couple
intention with a variety of vibrational techniques for creating sacred
space in our
personal and professional place.
July
13-15, 2007: Sacred
Sound Transmissions
3
days, $295
When we attune to our
own sacred nature, and
voice this in resonance with clarity and trust, we come into contact
with our
very essence. Zacciah uses sound coupled
with sacred intention to invoke the essence of higher being. This allows us each to enter more readily
into a sacred space, more ready to explore the deeper nature of
ourselves, and
relationship to that which we personally hold as sacred, and learn to
better voice it.
The invocation of sacred sound streams, which
Zacciah calls Sacred Sound Transmissions, creates the groundwork which
assists
us in walking through a rich tapestry of unfolding experiential
insights into
our essence. We will explore together
our inherent ability to discern and channel these sacred sound streams
through
voice and intention.

Sound is a

will
explore the fundamental nature of sound and healing, how sound effects
healing,
change, and growth, via the natural forces at play within our human
bodies and
psyche. We shall focus on how to use the voice in personal and
professional practice for clearing and energizing the human energy
field, in invocation,
and attunement to one’s higher self, and more, as a sound healing
tool.
We shall also learn how to better attune to
and channel sacred sound through our voice. The benefits of this
practice are immense at
building a sense of well being, connection to a Greater Source, and
vitality. We will explore more deeply,
our understanding of sound healing skills, especially in using the
voice, in
practical application, for therapeutic use with others. No prior
experience is necessary, nor is it
necessary to have a trained voice. This

Healing Practitioner series
Zacciah's next weekend series, the Sound
Healers
Practitioner
Training,
begins Jan 13-15, 2007, in Ascutney,
VT. It will incorporate
cognitive and applied/intuitive exercises, as well as sacred sound
meditations, to stimulate both our cognitive and visceral
understanding of the nature of sound, it's healing properties, how
it can deepen our awareness of self, and how we can assist others in
the process of touching our authentic and highest potential of
Self. This
is perhaps the most comprehensive course
in sound healing offered in New England, and will be the only
opportunities to participate in the full weekend program in the coming
year. The
program
is designed that you may participate in one or all weekends in the
series, though each program will also build off the previous ones.
Introductory weekends
of the
program may be offered in other areas of North America and Europe this
year. (Registration,
payment and discount
information follows.)
Check to see if we currently offer a monthly
sound circle
at the Center of Light
in Ascutney, usually to be the second Tuesday of each month, at 7:30
PM. We will explore a wide variety of sound techniques during
this
series.
Often we will offer a
preface of sound healing techniques such as you would learn in these
trainings.
We are discussing a series of NESHRI based trainings with NESHRI
facilitators as fundraisers for
NESHRI. Watch our site, or subscribe to our newsletters for
details.

Attuning the Chakras
An in depth
study of the nature and development of these
“wheels of light” within the subtle bodies & the human psyche; with
attunement exercises via alchemical practices, esoteric exercises, and
sacred
sound transmissions.
w/ Zacciah
at The Center of Light, Ascutney, Vermont
We
will be working with alchemical
streams of consciousness
to strengthen awareness and energy in the Light Body, offering toning
exercises
for the healing practitioner and lay persons, and, time permitting,
building the exercises
of the
Tibetan “Breath of Fire” practice, which serves explicitly to awaken,
clear,
and attune the chakras. Zacciah's trainings are
strongly influenced by intuitive
guidance. The
content of program material will alter from program to program due to
this guidance, based in part, on current needs and abilities of the
group. However, cognitive information on the nature of the
chakras and their role in human evolution is also an essential element
of this class.
Note: This program is now part of the Sound Healers
Training,
and focuses more on in depth cognitive information on the nature of the
Chakras, and skill development utilizing sound to balance and energize
the chakras in therapeutic settings.
Some parts of the above descriptive, such as the "Breath of Fire"
exercises, are currently not included.

Michelle Foster, Director, the New England Sound Healing Research
Institute
<>Join
us in this weekend exploration of the nature of, and use of sound and
light, in healing and transformation. What is the nature of
sound? How is it used in shamanic and sacred sound healing?
How do we connect with and channel the divine energies of light and
sound?
What is the human energy field, and how does sound interact with it in
healing
and transformation? We will work with specific techniques of
intonation,
intuitive guidance, focalization of will and intent, channeling of
light
energies, meditations to enhance awareness, guidance, and
personal
transformation, the use of sounding tools such as voice, drums,
tingshas,
and crystal bowls, the use and programming of crystals, feathers,
individual
and group healings, and more.
In
this current training, we will spend day one exploring the fundamental
nature of sound, and the neurophysiology of sound and its matrix within
the human body. On day two, we will seek understanding of the
etheric/subtle bodies, the chakra system, and the process of healing,
with sound. On day three, we will utilize a variety
of sounding techniques for transmission and healing. (As of
2005, program content may vary to this listing.)
This
is an in depth program which will benefit practitioner and novice
alike. We will create or deepen our foundation of understanding
and experience to open us to
further work with the mysteries of sacred sound in healing and
transformation. Zacciah's trainings are strongly influenced by
intuitive guidance. The content of program material will alter
from program to program due to this guidance, based in part, on current
needs and abilities of the group.

Sounds: The Voice of Awakening, w/ Zacciah
A
full day introductory program in Sacred Sound Transmissions and the Art
of
Personal Transformation through Alchemical Studies,
This program is available for those whom wish to host us in your
location
The
use of Sacred Sound comes in many formats throughout the world.
Come and explore with us its many tapestries as we work with voice,
drum,
flute, bowl and other instruments of Spirit with the use of Sacred
Sound
as a portal into deeper self exploration, greater dimensions of being
and
awareness, and transformation and integration into more complete or
fulfilled
spiritual/human beings. This is also an excellent opportunity to
be introduced to Zacciah's work. Elements of workshops may be
incorporated
into these bi-monthly circles. You do not need to play an
instrument
to participate. Zacciah uses the voice of the instruments as
doorways
to other dimensions, or levels of awareness.

A note on Sound
Healing Training: I am more than happy to help broaden your
awareness in
the community of sound healing, and explore deep and rewarding
comprehension of the use of sound as a therapeutic tool, a connector to
the divine realm, a vehicle for channeling light energies into the
earth, our bodies and
spirits. Novice and practitioners will both gain from our sound
healers
training. Please let me know your level of interest. Though
my work is always based on intuitive guidance, the more aware I am of
the
level of abilities and interests of participants in class, the easier
and
more potent the work becomes. Moreso, we are all creators in the
classroom. What we are open to, what we are ready for, what we
ask
for, and what we bring to each other, all opens doorways we might not
have
otherwise perceived. I am also working with those seeking
assistance
in their own path, in private studies, healing, or spiritual
counseling.
Please speak with me by e-mail, mail or phone.

work has broadened considerably since that article was written (in
1991,) and a link here to Zacciah's
