Calling all Keepers of Frequency
- Do you feel called to step into your leadership and support your community more fully – especially during these potent times of transformation & change?
- Are you ready to deepen your relationship with Sound?
- Do you want to feel confident in your relationship with your body as you navigate both resonant and dissonant frequencies in all areas of your life?
- Do you feel called to offer Sound Ceremonies to support the collective as we move through this time of shift?
- Do you want to feel calm, centered, and confident in this process?
- Do you have Sound Healing instruments that you don’t use that often?
- Do you want to have a deeper understanding of the mythological journey that occurs within a Sound Ceremony, and confidence in your ability to navigate all facets of the journey?
- Do you want to have a basic understanding of the Astrological influences that are available to collaborate with and call upon in your ceremonies?
- Are you ready to feel confident & supported in your ability to create beautiful and transformational Sound Healing Ceremonies for both in-person and online offerings?
Even when it feels like the world is spiraling out of control, Sound can help you find your center.
It’s empowering to know that you have the tools to help calm yourself, raise our collective vibration, as you support others through transformational ceremonies & experiences.
That’s why this course is called the Shamanic Star Sound Certification: we intentionally work with things that make us feel uncomfortable in a very safe way, such as dissonance and Silence, in addition to resonance and Sound.
When you learn how to facilitate Sound Healing experiences for others, you feel more in alignment, more in service, like you are responsible for holding a particular kind of frequency that is essential for our collective transformation right now.
With the Shamanic Star Sound Certification, you will have the tools and the confidence to support yourself and your community as we move through this evolutionary shift.
Sound can carry information into places where light cannot go. It penetrates us to our very core. It is in the darkness that we can feel safe to let go, to surrender the stories of pain, suffering, and fear, and to allow a new story to emerge.
Sound rearranges our molecules, literally forging a new existence within us – this is the medicine of the future.
I have witnessed Sound guide people through the loss of a loved one, the healing of cancer, the birth of a child, letting go of an addiction, building a business, and so much more.
Sound Medicine is BIG. There is a wave of frequency shift RISING within us, and Sound can lead the way into new harmonic ways of being.
Now, more than ever, we need calm, centered, and confident Keepers of Frequency to serve the Medicine of Sound to support us in this SHIFT.
ARE YOU READY TO BECOME A KEEPER OF FREQUENCY?

Sound will be the medicine of the future.– Edgar Cayce
Hi, I’m Rakai’el!
When I was a child, I would lay on the grass after sunset and listen to music that seemed to come from the sky itself, and sounded like Angels. When I finally found the crystal singing bowls, I found I could reproduce these angelic songs once more.
From 2013-2014, I mentored with Erica Sandstedt who is an incredible Shaman, Sound Healer & teacher, who taught me so much about how to hold space and facilitate potent transformational ceremonies.
As an acupuncturist at the time, I began weaving Sound into my healing sessions with tuning forks, small bells, and a Tibetian Singing Bowl. I longed to become a ceremonial Sound Facilitator, but it seemed like my life had other things in store.
Then I was called to move to Hawai’i, where I received a profound activation of my voice. It was through the magic of sharing my song that I was initiated into ceremonial facilitation with my partner at the time, Mikaya Swabb, and gifted my first set of Crystal Singing Bowls. Ever since then, my whole life has changed.
Since 2017, I’ve had the great honor to collaborate with so many incredible Sound Healers and artists, release an EP of my Light Language toning, co-created a Sound Bath album, been flown overseas to share Sound for everything from moon circles, weddings, and corporate & private events.
Now after teaching Sound Healing to over 350 students from around the world, as well as leading over 275 Sound Journeys for groups as large as 80+ to individual Sound Healings, I want to share it ALL with you.

If you’ve been with me for a while, you know that Shamanic Star Sound was originally an 8-week All-Levels course in 2018.
Now, after 5 years of teaching over 350 students from all across the world, the Shamanic Star Sound experience has transformed into a 9-month Certification Program, complete with homework assignments, exams, accountability partners, LIVE classes & labs, and so much more!
We have now been offering Shamanic Star Sound as a full fledged Certification program for 2 years, and the results have been astounding! Please visit our list of official Certified Shamanic Star Sound Healers here. You will also be featured here upon completion of the Certification program.
I am so honored to share this evolution of the incredible gift it is to walk beside you as you deepen into your devotion to Sound Medicine and step into your role more fully as a leader in your community.
It is my intention that by the end of this experience, the depth of your relationship with Sound and your confidence
in your ability to hold clear, supportive, and safe transformational ceremonies
will resonate from every cell in your being.
This Certification is a deep offering from my heart to yours.
May it empower you in ways you never thought possible.

GRATITUDE
I am in deepest appreciation to all of my teachers for supporting me and guiding me on this path. My heart overflows with eternal gratitude to Mikaya Swabb, my former Sound Partner, who recognized my song as a gift that needed to be shared with the world and initiated me into holding Sound Ceremonies professionally. I am especially grateful to my teacher Erica Sandstedt for everything she taught me about how to hold a safe and sacred space for deep transformation & healing using Sound Medicine, and how to navigate the multidimensional realms. I’d also like to thank Rich Raffals and Rene Jenkins for their inspirational support and Sound guidance.
Thank you so much for exploring the possibility of becoming a Carrier of Sound Medicine and a Keeper of Frequency. Our world is moving through so many powerful shifts right now, and Sound Medicine is here as a teacher, guide, and ally during these potent times. Sound truly is the medicine of the future, and I want to share everything I know with you so that you can serve your community now. It is so important. I believe in you.
Let’s do this!
With endless devotion to your eternal empowerment,

Q: What if I decide I don’t want to take this course after I sign up? What is your refund policy?
A: I want you to be intentional in everything you do. Place your hand on your heart and take a deep breath before you complete your payment. Read the affirmation on the payment page out loud.

That said, if after 1 week from the exact date and time when the first module’s content has been released on 9/13/2023, you don’t feel like this is for you, you have until 8am Pacific time on 9/20/2023 to request a refund by sending us an email.

If you are not certain if this course is for you, please email us HERE with any questions you may have.
Q: I can’t make the live classes and/or sound labs, will they be recorded?
A: All LIVE classes & labs will be recorded – however – your presence and participation is required. If you are unable to attend any of our LIVE classes, you must watch the replays and write 3 sentences of your key insights from the class in your online workbook before the next LIVE class.
*** Q: What is the time commitment for the certification?
A: At the very least you will need to plan for:
- 6-7 hours per month to attend our LIVE classes & labs
- If you are unable to attend the classes & labs on the scheduled day, you will also need to watch the replays and plan to write out your reflections for the missed class & send them before the next LIVE class (1-2 hours per month)
- 5-6 hours per month to attend the Sound Temple Ceremonies
- Time to record your reflections from each ceremony (1-2 hours per month)
- 40 minutes per week for your 10-minute Sound practice 4x per week.
- Homework assignments will vary – probably best to plan for 2-7 hours per month. Some months will be more, others less.
- Beginning in January you will be offering Partner Ceremonies to your online community, so best to plan for 4-7 hours per month to organize & present your ceremonies.
- So in total, you’re looking at anywhere from 20-32 hours to dedicate to this journey each month (5-8 hours each week).
Q: I don’t have any sound healing experience yet, can I still take the course?
A: 100% YES! This course will be the best thing that ever happened to you as you begin your journey with Sound Medicine! I am so excited for you!!
Q: What if I’m not interested in receiving the certification, but I still want to take the program for my own empowerment and learning?
A: Of course, there is the option to just have access to the experience & material just for your own personal learning & enrichment (not to receive the certification), but it is helpful for you to know that is your path (and helpful for us & your classmates to know) so that everyone can manage their expectations, so no one ends up disappointed.
*** Q: I don’t have any sound healing instruments yet, can I still take the course?
A: You are required to have at least 3-5 different types of sound healing instruments prior to our second lab together on October 18th. You should have at least 1 instrument in the following categories:
1) Dispersive: Percussive instruments that disperse or “chop” the energy (rattle, drum, rainstick, ocean drum, etc)
2) Smoothing/Hypnotic: Instruments that create continuous, hypnotic soundscape (crystal bowls, gong, didgeridoo, handpan, Tibetan bowls, classical harp, etc)
3) Neutral: Instruments that do a bit of both (koshi chimes, bells, xylophone, crystal harp, tuning forks, etc)
You will need to have a variety of different instruments so that you have a good amount of sonic “material” to work with. The goal is to have you feeling comfortable and confident to facilitate Ceremonies that are 90 min-2 hours, so you need to have enough Sound to be able to work with for that amount of time. As soon as you sign up you will receive a video to support you in building your family of instruments. This is an advanced Sound Healing course, with practical sound labs and homework that you will be required to complete in order to receive your certification by the end of our journey. If you have any doubts at all that you will be able to obtain the necessary instruments please wait until another time to join us for the certification. If you have any questions about this please send us an email here.
Q: OMG I’m soooo excited to get some Sound Healing instruments!! Which ones do you recommend???
A: Yay!! I love your excitement!! As soon as you sign up, you’ll get access to a video where I describe everything about which instruments I recommend, where to get them, etc. I also went over the basics here.
Q: What kind of instruments do you teach about?
A: I only teach about those instruments I’ve played and can demonstrate for you (crystal singing bowls, crystal lyre/harp, crystal pyramid, tuning forks, koshi chimes, bells, drums, flute, rattles, rainsticks, ocean drum, practitioner crystal singing bowls). I will NOT be teaching about didgeridoo, gongs, Tibetan bowls, handpans – but you are absolutely welcome to participate in the class if you have these instruments! 🙂
Q: I’m already a professional Sound Healer, will I benefit from doing this course?
A: I love working with people who already have a good amount of experience, because then we get to experiment more. As a professional Sound Healer myself, I’m always on the lookout for opportunities to deepen my Sound practice and enhance my abilities as a Ceremonial Facilitator. I trust your inner guidance. You know if you are called.
Q: Do you offer a Sound Healing Certification with this course?
A: Yes. I am so happy to finally offer a certification!
Q: After this training will I be able to teach and/or certify other Sound Healers using any of the methods/information from this course?
A: No. This is a Sound Healing Certification, not a Teacher Training. We may be offering a Teacher Training in the future!
Q: Does your course have voice activation as part of the program?
A: I am so excited to finally be able to say YES to this question! I will be sharing some vocal exercises and techniques in our LIVE labs.
Q: Can I do the Sound Healing and the Astro Empowerment and/or Remembering Lemuria courses at the same time? I’m sitting with this question. I have a few bowls, I use them regularly. I want to expand but I also don’t want to crowd my learning plate completely.
A: I don’t know what all of your time commitments are, so I feel like I can’t answer this question adequately. I do know that we make time for what is important to us – so this might be a beautiful invitation to tune into your priorities & goals + considering other things that may come up along the way. SSSC is a pretty intensive experience, so it’s best to review the Course Requirements and take an honest look at your schedule to make sure you can show up fully. For those who want to weave Astrology into their Sound Medicine practice, we are excited to offer $447 off of the Astro Empowerment experience as a self-study addendum.
Q: Are your bowls 432 or 440hz frequency? Are any of them ‘pitch perfect’? Have you found it difficult to play with other people whose bowls are not pitch perfect or not the same frequency as yours? Where did you source yours?
A: I have two sets of frosted crystal singing bowls. Both are 432 Hz, and both are from a brand called Top Fund that you can find on Amazon. One set is perfect pitch (this is my main set. They also nest inside each other, condensing down into two carrying cases). It is definitely difficult to play with other instruments that are not 432hz, especially other crystal singing bowls. I’ve been able to get away with playing with 440 handpans/pantams, gongs, and metal singing bowls, but I have found it nearly impossible to play with 440 crystal bowls.
Q: Is your Sound Healing certification only for women?
A: Not at all! The Shamanic Star Sound is open to anyone and everyone who resonates with the sacred medicine of Sound! We need as many Keepers of Frequency and Carriers of Sound Medicine as possible on this planet at this time!! If you are feeling called to this collective mission, trust that!
Q: For our alumni: What is the difference between the Shamanic Star Sound Course and the Certification?
A: The original course was 8 weeks, and the Shamanic Star Sound Certification is 9 months. In this space we have the opportunity to go way deeper than we did before.
I’m teaching all of the classes live, and updating all of the subjects with everything that I’ve learned over the past 5 years since I first recorded the videos for the class that you took.
There will also be homework assignments at the end of every class, required reading, small groups for accountability, teachings on Astrology and how to weave the Astrological energies into your Ceremonies with proficiency. Students are also required to send in a 10 minute guided meditation, and a 45 minute video Sound ceremony, complete with lights & altar spaces.
Basically, by the end of the certification I want everyone to be able to offer ceremonies and hold space with the same level of confidence and proficiency that I do, but in their own unique Frequency expression.
