SpiritSong Workshop
Freeing the Voice, Sounding the Spirit

Music, song and sound have been used by countless cultures as extraordinarily effective vehicles for healing, communal bonding, and spiritual awakening. Author, composer, singer and sound-healer Shawna Carol has emerged as a leading figure in the contemporary revitalization of the art of sacred song as a transformative tool. She has developed “SpiritSong,” a unique approach to singing and toning based on a method of “singing without words;” a powerful technique that permits us to reconnect to the most primal form of singing. SpiritSong uses the voice to sound what you are feeling in the moment and this unlocks your power and unique beauty.

Kellianna is a singer/songwriter performing Goddess inspired Folk Music at venues such as The 2003, 2004 & 2005 Goddess Conference in Glastonbury, England and the 2004 & 2005 Women of Wisdom Conference in Seattle, Washington. Kellianna is experienced in the art of chant and songleading in a group setting.

The Way of Song is based on the premise that singing has two primary purposes: first, to release any disease we are carrying, and second to connect us with the Creative Source. In a sacred song circle we will create a community in song as we practice loving witness of ourselves and one another.

The act of being witness to someone’s song is s a great honor. It is a sacred trust. It is a practice of a very special kind of loving, to empower someone to be freely themselves in the moment. As we witness one another a communion of healing and unity is created. Our hearts truly open to each other as we embrace each other’s song.

Kellianna uses guided meditation, chanting and toning exercises to create a warm, safe space that allows participants to discover their own unique “essence song.” Find out why Julia Cameron say’s “This is an extremely powerful technique.” (—Julia Cameron, author of The Artist’s Way)

Shawna Carol's book about this technique, “The Way of Song: A Guide to Freeing the Voice and Sounding the Spirit” is available from St. Martin’s Press.
