What we’re about
This meetup group has been set up to connect the community of people in Dublin and surrounding areas who are interested in sound and its effects on wellbeing. This includes people who simply enjoy singing together, as well as people who specifically use sound for its healing effects. If you would like to learn more about the practice of Sound Healing, look at the 'Pages' tab in the menu above.
The Sound Healing Practitioner Training course is now offered in Ireland. It is accredited by the College of Sound Healing (UK) and recognised by the CMA (Complementary Medical Association).
The course consists of five 2-day courses undertaken over an 18 month period. This training can be undertaken by people whose intention is to heal themselves as well as those who would like to become Sound Healing Practitioners and work with others.
The initial course 'An Introduction to Sound Healing with the Voice' is open to everyone. See Upcoming Meetups for more details.
Check out the pages and discussion boards for more info on Singing, Voice Work & Sound Healing.

‘At the heart of each of us, whatever our imperfections, there exists a silent pulse of perfect rhythm, a complex of waveforms and resonances which is absolutely individual and unique and yet which connects us to everything in the universe. The act of getting in touch with the pulse can transform our personal experience and in some way alter the world around us’.
George Leonard, ‘The Silent Pulse’ Bantam Books, 1981

See all- Songs for the Great TurningCarmelite Community Centre, Dublin 2€40.00
Join us this month for a half-day singing in Dublin 2, dedicated to singing in the change we want to see in the world!
The Great Turning describes the shift from a global system based on greed, consumption and environmental destruction towards a just ecological civilisation in which all life is revered. Amidst the chaos in the world, this revolution is quietly taking place in every community in the planet.
Recognising that the Great Turning is actually happening encourages us to come alive to our truest power, look straight into the face of this time and transform despair and apathy about the world into connection and change-making, however that might look for you. Singing together brings us right back into the moment and into deep connection with ourselves and with life itself.
This workshop will be inspired by Joanna Macy’s Spiral of the Work that Reconnects, a group practice designed to reconnect us to life and to our potential to co-create a better world. The spiral will begin with songs of gratitude, then we will move to songs to honour our sadness, grief and rage. Next we will sing chants and songs to help us see things in a new way, with new eyes and finally, we will complete our spiral with the nurturing, empowering tunes to inspire and uplift us as we continue to do our best for ourselves, our loved ones, communities, fellow creatures and plant kin and the planet itself.
