This course is truly unique because it takes place in a unique setting that is perfect for vocal sound healing and because there is room for a maximum of 20 participants.
Molino Del Rey can’t be described – only experienced. The place is a work of life created by Anthony Arnold (Englishman) who himself has built the place up and there is a wealth of details, small sculptures and mosaics created by his wife who is a yoga teacher and is doing treatments as well. Molino del Rey has existed for more than 20 years. The scenery is unique and the spring water pure and healing – you can drink it straight.
Normally, Molino del Rey is a yoga retreat centre. The place is uniquely built into the mountain by the owner Anthony, who himself is intererest in sound healing. His Russian wife, Lidiya, has decorated both rooms, caves, small hooks, benches, etc. with the finest mosaics. Here is an opportunity to find your own unique, cozy nook with a wide view of the mountains, or to sing in the rock caves where there is dim light. The entire retreat centre is oozing with running spring water that you can drink directly from. The pool is filled with spring water and only with added salt – nothing else. The water, the acoustics and the beauty of this place complement the sound healing in the best possible way. Hiking in the evening is highly recommended. There is a tour on one and a half hour that goes through orange, cherry, avocado and lemon groves and further out into the most beautiful mountain landscape.

Education structure
The Education in Vocal Sound Therapy is based on blocks of 7-day courses with 20-30 participants per course. Each week course will have the same basic structure adapted to the needs and levels of the participants. You can sign up for one week course at a time, the training will be ongoing so you can choose week courses as it suits you. After a minimum of four week courses you can choose to take an examination. For coming into consideration as an instructor in Githa Ben-David’s weekly “The Note from Heaven & Hung Song” online gatherings (staring 1.January 2024), you must have participated in minimum one online- week course and have knowledge about meridians (eventually have taken Githa Ben-David’s week-course -“Hung Song Activation of the 12 Basic Meridians”).
Homework between the courses: Sing The Note from Heaven, group work, sound therapy with friends and clients.
A date for the examination will be set once there are 15-20 people ready to enter (with six months notice). For the examination/certification you need four week courses, to make a ten minute film with excerpts from a session with you as the therapist, thirty verified cases of Vocal Therapy sessions with you as the therapist, and to make a written examination in answering questions (without books). Githa Ben-David and two co-examiners (Lars Muhl and Jytte Johansen) will look at the whole picture and judge whether or not they find you are ready for certification. If you do not pass (but have thirty cases), it will be possible to make a new film/assignment. The examiners will be looking for you to demonstrate: the method, breathing, presence, dedication and precision. The responce of the client is also taken into consideration. When the exam papers are handed out, you will receive the censors’ response, after which the examination films are shown, while all candidates are present, so that you can learn from each other.
Introduction to the education
There is a great need for sound healing in our world. Since the research in the field is minimal, Githa Ben-David has initiated a certified education in Vocal Sound Therapy based on her four books, as well as 33 years of practical work within the field. Those who have already graduated, as well as students, contribute through their results to research in the work with The Note from Heaven. Thus Githa recommends clients to the trained sound healers on the basis of the results they have with their treatments. Some voices are particularly good at healing tinnitus, other abdominal problems or fractures. It shows quickly when you get started.
The Note from Heaven is based on devotion to sound, where the singer’s ‘true’ expression unfolds, which means that you make room to be who you are, with the result that the sound of the voice becomes filled with overtones and touches the heart. The phenomenon is described in Githa’s first book of the same name. The aim of the education is that the participants release the healing qualities of their voices. There are no two identical voices. Our work is based on a gracious and empathetic method, where the truth as a considered response is paramount.
Compulsory reading
The books are not included in the course fee.
Githa Ben-David’s books “The Ultimate Book on Vocal Sound Healing”, “Help” & “Heal the Pineal”.
