Start your journey

"(...) The Foundations of Sound Healing course with Zacciah and Dorothy was so much more than I had hoped for. I not only learned the science and practical skills behind sound healing and gained the confidence to create and hold sacred space for others, but the teachings also became an invaluable part of my own healing journey. Through this work, I’ve been able to walk my personal path of healing and share what I’ve learned from a place of inner truth and confidence. I’ve also taken several Evolution of Consciousness courses, and they have been truly life-changing. Zacciah and Dorothy are genuine healers and wisdom keepers. Their depth of knowledge, insight, authenticity, and kindness are rare gifts in this world. I feel deeply blessed to have had the opportunity to study with them."
