Voice medicine
13th - 20th April 2019
7 day Singing retreat, Lake Atitlan, Guatemala
https://youtu.be/dqvqBI4jpWE
The connection we cultivate through song is a direct link to our deepest selves, it is a joyous practice that can release emotions and restore harmony, in a way only music can. Using voice development techniques, playful improvisation and focused breath work, we will explore the healing that community singing can bring. Within a safe and encouraging environment , you will develop harmony skills, learn to bring forth your 'authentic voice' and enter into the sublime state of improvisation that produces the music of the given moment.
Immersed in the breath taking landscape of Lake Atitlan, you have the chance to disconnect from the outside world and turn your attention instead to the exploration of your unique sound, of the magical connection practiced in group music and the cultivation of your inner song.
Singing together is a part of our ancestry - ' To create a harmonious vibration is the medicine of the future.' - Pythagoras
Explore singing as meditation:
Use breath, sound and song to explore the meeting of mind, body and spirit.
The breath work required to develop and strengthen your voice is very similar to Pranayama breathing. We practice the same exercises that are used in Yoga, Tai chi, Aikido or any of the other Chi-cultivating traditions. This both simultaneously relaxes and recharges the singer, moving energy, emotion and stimulating the body and mind.
Develop harmony skills:
Singing together in harmony gives us goose bumps, tingles, as we breathe together, we connect and communicate with each other in a way scientists liken to the communal, synchronized behavior of flocks of birds or shoals of fish. When we sing in harmony with each other, we release the same chemicals as we do when we make love ! Through fun games and diverse songs from around the world, we will deepen our exploration of harmony and the healing power of resonating together.
Explore improvisation and learn the basic fundamentals of 'Circle Singing'
Improvisation within music is to enter an altered state, the roots of which belong to shamanistic past. It is a tool that allows us to access the subconscious, to enter into the 'stream of consciousness', to stimulate our creativity, to release suppressed thoughts and feelings. It is a vehicle for working with ego and to practice the unspoken communication that we cultivate when singing and sounding as one.
It is also so much fun to improvise as a group and allows us to create the 'song waiting to be sung' ! in each unique moment.
Develop and strengthen your instrument:
Your body is your instrument and your voice is a muscle, the more you use it, the stronger it gets. Using vocal techniques and breath work, we will explore the body as instrument, the benefits of daily practice and how to strengthen and improve the voice.
Daily Yoga Classes
Yoga classes are offered twice daily at the Yoga Forest, as well as a sunrise meditation.
Take part in a Temazcal/Traditional Mayan Sweat-lodge:
(Optional)
Sacred & Ceremony Singing: The Soundtrack of Modern Ritual
Song, chant and prayer have traditionally accompanied sweat lodges, giving us a way of focusing our thoughts, our prayers and our intentions. Enjoy the experience of 'shedding skin' , the de-toxification of body, mind and soul and an opportunity to leave behind that which no longer serves us. The Temezcal is a metaphor for the womb, as we enter into the darkness, guided by a rhythm, led by song, we will re-emerge out into the light of a new day.
