retreat style
SOURCE RESONANCE is a next-level training and journey through the healing power of sound and the sacred power of music, converging ancient wisdom and ground-breaking science in a universal paradigm of vibrational medicine. It is this convergence of science & spirituality that illuminates universal aspects of our humanity and reality, opening up new possibilities of existence and evolution.
In this training intensive retreat, we shall be initiated into this new paradigm of an energetic, vibrational and multi-dimensional reality and learn why sound healing is one of the most significant emergent medical fields. Our journey will reconnect and root us to the ancients and their 'sonic mysticism' and sacred musical arts in a diversity of global cultural expressions. We shall learn basic and advanced skills of sacred sounding with the voice to foster an individual healing practice, as well as learn how to conduct Soundbaths and Sound Journeys for groups and therapeutic environments. We will delve into the exciting potentials of one-on-one Sound Therapy with Tuning Fork modalities that merge Chinese Medicine & Yogic technique to heal the body on a fundamental, energetic level. We will also explore mantra work and the Yoga of Sound from the ancient Vedic culture of India. And we shall embark on the recovery of the sacredness of music as a force to uplift, transform and connect the world and foster community.
“Attending the Source Resonance Training Intensive has been a profound and magical experience. I am deeply humbled and so grateful for all the teachings I have received from Darren Austin Hall, as well as the unity of so many beautiful souls. I submerged myself into the world of sound where the healing and rebuilding was in a constant flow. We experienced Temazcal, Sound Healing, Song Catching, Cacao Ceremonies, Yoga, Qigong, Ecstatic Dance and much more together as a tribe, where support and compassion was in abundance. I am now ready to transfer all this wisdom into practice.

a taste of what this magical space offers:
"Our main lodge is the result of nearly 20 years of careful planning, design and construction. Down to the detail, this spacious and open-air palace is the epitome of jungle luxury and will provides plenty of space to relax in your down time. In and around the lodge is where the dining room, kitchen, lounge area, yoga platforms, massage rooms, gift shop, and tea infusions bar are all located.

testimonials
“I have had the benefit and pleasure of hearing Darren’s astonishing sound healing music and sacred tones at several events I have facilitated. Darren’s contributions leave me awed and inspired and that much more present for the task at hand. I always look forward to our collaboration.”
"Dear Darren
Your bowls are singing and you are bringing
The voice of the divine to life
To everybody/every mind
To the Soul
From a bowl to the Soul
Carriers of sacred sounds speaking with the voice of an angel
Yes, you fly
And with that i remember to use my wings of the spirit descending
It is me, oh God
I recognise
bow
To your bringing and singing of bowls
For taking me in and understand the deepest of myself
sacred, native
Yes, I do"
- Wim Hof/the Iceman
and from graduate's of previous Source Resonance Trainings
“Connection is one of the most fundamental of human needs. The Source Resonance Intensive establishes a safe space for that connection to occur. It will allow you to reconnect with your soul, inspire you, free you, touch you, and allow you to return to unconditional self-love.
It will invite you to dig deep, release and love yourself and everything around you again, genuinely and authentically.
It will allow you to expose the beauty of your soul at its best, raw, unapologetic, and real. Every day will be a gift. Every meal, a reverence. Every morning, a delightful ritual.
You will learn more than how to make beautiful sounds that heal your spirit, but also create and incorporate loving rituals into your daily existence. To say that it’s life-changing, doesn’t even begin to express what an incredible journey this was for me.
Definitely, not your average workshop, not your average facilitator, not your average anything. Every moment, every detail, was conscious, yet flowing and loving.
