Training and mentoring for the Sound Healing Practitioners
I have diverse experience offering hundreds of private sound healing sessions to people with all kinds of issues and ages. My youngest client was a 3 month old baby and oldest one 89-years old man. My main way of working is integrating science and intuition using my instruments as diagnostic tools. This allows me to be fully present in the sessions without attaching myself into the story of the client. I strongly believe that this way I am also able to empower my clients to take more responsibility of their own health. The only healer in the session is ALWAYS the client.
Based on direct experience and studies on the effective and affective power of sound in healing, I have created offerings for other sound practitioners.
“Minna helped me feel confident in sound healing and offering it to people because I understood how it works and techniques that I could always use. Most importantly she also taught me to listen. To really listen to what my instruments are telling me and helped me build a relationship with them. This is something that I think separates Minna’s sound healing training. She will let you find your own way. And help you interpret your relationship with your instruments. It’s really a beautiful thing that minna cultivates during the trainings. I feel that every time I talk to minna I learn something new. I cannot recommend minna enough. Meeting minna was a blessing and I am always grateful for the wealth of knowledge that she has shared with me.” Sound Practitioner Training – Jade
“Minna is a wealth of information, a kindly soul, and a wise woman who shares her gifts, warmth, and ancient knowledge openly.” Sound Practitioner Training – Janine P.
“It was super fun and inspiring to see and explore all of your various instruments and learn about the different ways you use them as diagnostic tools.” Sound Practitioner Training – Rachel D.
“I enjoyed watching Minna in action then having an opportunity to craft and practice my own sound healing session.” Sound Practitioner Training – Anna R.
“I was thrilled to be part of such an intimate, well thought out afternoon with very interesting women who are committed to learning, sharing, and exchanging ideas in sound healing. Minna is so inspiring and supportive. I picked up a few ideas that have already fulfilled many of the reasons I attended this workshop. A renewed confidence in my potential in my abilities and continued clarity of vision” Sound Healing Event Training – Fran B.
