Course #201

The second-level course is designed to make the attainment of Heart Rhythm Meditation rapid and reliable. The method of breath and heartbeat is augmented by sounds that literally vibrate the heart. The sound itself is both a cause and an effect of the meditation state, so it provides feedback by which you can rapidly tune and strengthen your heart.

This course is open to all those who have completed Heart Rhythm Practice Level 1. The course material is taken from Susanna Bair's paper, "Self-Generated Sounds Used to Modulate Consciousness," given at the First World Symposium on Psychology, Vienna, 1996.

The Level 2 course is taught only in person by a teacher who is specially trained and certified for this course.

The objective is to demonstrate each of 8 sounds such that they stimulate a response in your heart and in the hearts of others. With this ability, you will have gained a set of powerful tools that you can apply to Living from the Heart. For example, one sound brings out the courage of your heart, another sound brings out your appreciation for the innate beauty of things. A third sound strengthens the insight of your heart. The sounds do much more than remind you of these states; they take you there and make it natural for you to live in that condition. By being able to create the sounds yourself, you have a resource you can call upon at any time to tune your heart as you need it to be.
