Heart of Sound Sanskrit Mantra, Nāda Yoga & Sound Healing ~ the best online teacher training in the yoga of sound!

10/30/2026

Honestly? This is the chant retreat I wish I’d had when I first fell in love with mantra in 1997.
Seven days in the Sydney hinterland.

Bare feet on cool grass, voices braided together until the whole room hums… and you feel the sound sounding YOU.

💕 𝐏𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐥 💕
Study solo, chant in community. In-person Chant Retreat + 200/500HR Online TT. Year-round 1:1 mentorship online + the full-body group experience = BEST OF BOTH WORLDS⁠.

It took me 30 years of chanting mantra, refining my voice through nāda yoga, and Tantrik nondual philosophy to arrive at this simply elegant true statement. Duh!⁠
⁠
Since sound is the eternal living thread that connects us to Source -- and to each other and live all around us -- when we feel that resonance reverberating back to us, that is Life saying "Yes!" ⁠
⁠
Letting the truth of that IN, to re-set all of the crap ideas we carry around with us (whatever your favorite twist on "inherently unworthy of love" is), is the transformative power of sound=love=god in action. Full stop.⁠

Honestly, I developed the Heart of Sound training in 2014 because it was what I was looking for my whole life, but never found. ⁠
⁠
I spent decades of my life and got myself into tens of thousands of dollars of debt, passionately trying to pe*****te into a direct experience of the Divine!⁠ Sound and mantra is my PASSION, and my LIFE'S WORK! ⁠
⁠
But along the way I encountered a s* of BS both living in India and teaching in the global wellness/yoga circuit. ⁠
⁠
If you know you know!! If you're on this sound healing mantra path and have not yet developed the discernment to know, I hope I can help you avoid the heartache, the "meh," and the misguided efforts.⁠
⁠
At the urging of my teachers and mentors, and with their hearty blessings and support, I created the Heart of Sound, to bring together the essential aspects of the sound yoga practice that had become profoundly therapeutic and devotional for me.⁠ And now for 500+ graduates in 65+ countries around the world. ⁠
⁠
After fumbling myself, then teaching teachers full time since 2015, we've now got an elegant, efficient, sensationally alive approach to sound and mantra. Without the BS.⁠
⁠
It’s all centered around one core value: EMPOWERMENT⁠
⁠
If that is music to your ears, we’ve got great news!⁠
⁠
I'm re-teaching the 200HR Foundational Course this year, over two weeks IN PERSON on magical Māui, and you'll never find a more affordable Hawai'i retreat training.⁠

Can you imagine a chant experience where the group is stacked with people who have had hundreds, if not thousands, of hours of training and deep personal practice with Mantra and Nada Yoga?

That’s what our Heart of Sound retreats are like.

We have such an incredible group of people from all over the world who join us on retreat... and when we get together to chant, it’s not just la la la.

It is HEAVEN. I’m in heaven.

We go so beautifully deep into the mantras and the rāgas and the pure life-transforming power of sound.

It’s really like nothing else.

The more you know, the more you know you don’t know…

Is there any realm in which this is not true?

People.

The longer you know someone, the more you realize that you have no idea what is really going on for them deep inside. They hold multitudes of mysteries, complex trauma, perceptual, differences, patterns, and habits built on foundations that you can never understand fully, because you have not lived it yourself.

Mantra.

I used to think that learning how to chant more mantras, sing more songs, do more complex, and longer chants meant that I knew more, and had mastered the subject.

I was so completely wrong that it is laughable! The endless unfathomable depths of the heart of sound, and it’s awesome transformative power, not just for me, but as a musical way of living in the world has taught me how to remain humble.

I’m no longer interested in studying scriptures, because that is someone else’s attempt to capture in words an essence, which is by nature indescribable.

I am intimate with that Soundless sound, it is my home.

The Cosmos.

Every time we get a more penetrating looking glass, we peer through layers of depth that we never before dreamed possible. The scale and magnitude of the grandeur of existence is too much for our tiny, scared animal brain to embrace and accept, much less feel an intimate part of.

Stay away from thought terminating clichés.

Don’t settle for a savior narrative that gives you a temporary feeling of safety, being cared for.

Lean into nuance, complexity, a large enough embrace of any difficult situation / tension point that includes a both/and scenario, not an either/or divisive polarizing stance.

There are no problems that we cannot solve, if we resist the temptation to need to be right.

I find safety in not knowing.

Anyone who is offering you a sense of surety is putting on front. A facade. Religious leaders, political leaders… It doesn’t matter. To be honest with oneself, and the vastness of the complex mystery, is, perhaps the only certainty that there is?

Practical take away:
Next time you are in a tension point within yourself, make it an attention point: can you find curiosity to listen

I'm completely spoiled from hosting deep chant retreats for the past 15 years (rather than touring the festival circuit and doing shorter events and concerts). The depth, potency, connection, and transformation that we experience together is EVERYTHING to me. ⁠
⁠
And Shayla's life-changing breakthrough reminds me why I do what I do. She's in the 500HR teacher training, attended a retreat in person, and had the breakthrough she needed most, which will reverberate through the rest of her life. So blessed to be able to facilitate these opportunities!⁠

One of the biggest mistakes I’ve made in my 25 years of teaching?

Failing to understand just how often students perform good for the teacher.

Here’s what I mean. The teacher is sharing something… “envision this,” “experience this”… and the student is nodding along. “Okay, yes. Oh yeah, I can feel it. Mm-hmm. Oh my god, you’re so amazing.”

But actually… it’s a facade.
It’s not a direct, embodied insight the student is having in themselves.

They’re performing good for the teacher. For the approval. The acknowledgement. The recognition. That sense of connection to someone they respect.

Communion, not performance. What matters isn’t how it looks to the teacher. It’s what’s actually alive in YOU.
Have you ever caught yourself performing good? 👇
