SOUND HEALING TRAINING
WITH CRYSTAL BOWLS
Level 1 and 2
An in depth training and transformational journey held both in person and online over three months.
You will learn the expertise and skills required to play crystal bowls with sensitivity and presence, and create healing spaces of safety and care. We will explore how to work with sound as a pathway to presence; for your own self self-care and meditation and how to share professional offerings that support true healing and transformation.
In our time together we explore deep listening, the art of playing with softness, how to hold space for one to ones and groups. We will work with the crystal bowls to alchemise stored or stuck energy in the body and energy centres, which may be blocking your personal expression and unique soul's gifts, so that you can open up and share the gift of sound for yourself, with your family and community.
This sound healing training is much more than a sound healing training, it is a pathway, home to the heart, to presence, the essence of who you are.
It is our deepest intention to support you to come into harmony with your own inner light and gifts; not just through the content that we teach, but through the frequency of the crystalline field we hold, supported by the alchemy crystal bowls.
During the training there is plenty of space for practicing, support and feedback, so that you complete the training feeling confident and embodied, so that you can step forward with this gift to share.
In between the in person meetings there is ongoing support, we meet weekly for silent sittings to root into stillness, a fundamental part of sharing sound, grounding in presence. We share online sound ceremonies for you to receive and learn through receiving, and Whatsapp group support for questions and answers. On completion of the training you are held in a sound sister group with over 300 like minded sound sisters to share, ask questions and continue to support each other's journey.

MEET CARLY
Carly is the founder of Crystal Singing Bowls Temple and a sound practitioner and guide.
In her late twenties, Carly had an awakening experience which led her on a path of deep self enquiry, connecting her with teachers and Masters who supported her journey. She lived with one of her teachers at their home and ashram in Portugal for six years, where she deepened her own inner enquiry and practice.
Today, it is her joy to combine her love of sound and presence, sharing sound as a pathway to awakening and an instrument for transmitting stillness, love and peace into the world.
MEET HOLLY
From touring in a girl band to finding peace through yoga and sound, Holly’s journey has always been guided by the music in her soul.
Now a sound healer and founder of the global Sound Sisters Community, she helps women reconnect with their light through sacred sound and embodied practice.
Her debut album Luminous Shadow and healing singles like Moment with the Sun reflect her mission: to lead the world gently back to love, peace, and inner power.

FINDING YOUR CRYSTAL BOWLS
Finding the bowls that are right for you is one of the most meaningful parts of the training.
Rather than simply selecting bowls, Carly personally guides each student in finding the bowls that are right for them. Time is taken to explore how the bowls sound together, how they feel, and which combinations naturally want to come together.
It isn't something that's rushed. There is space to listen, explore and discover which bowls you naturally connect with.
Over the years, people have jokingly called Carly a bit of a "bowl whisperer". Witnessing someone play the bowls from a space of deep listening it is felt when someone connects with their right bowl. Witnessing that moment, and supporting each student through it, remains one of her greatest joys.
Carly works exclusively with Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls, which begin at approximately £980 per bowl. These bowls are infused with precious gemstones and minerals. Having worked with them for over fifteen years, they're the only bowls Carly chooses to teach and share with.
If you decide to train with Carly, she'll personally guide you through choosing your bowls as part of the training.
Over the three months you'll be held through in-person weekends, weekly Silent Sittings, online Sound Ceremonies, ongoing guidance, and the loving support of the Sound Sisters community. On successful completion, you'll also receive your Crystal Bowl Sound Healing Levels 1 & 2 Certification.
Accommodation isn't available at the venue, so we kindly invite you to arrange your own stay nearby. There are a number of hotels and Airbnb options within easy reach of the venue, giving you plenty of choice for your stay.
