What is Autophonetics?

Sound Therapy using your voice, developed by Arden Wilken. Based on her investigation into the benefits of specific sounds and their effect on the body. Use as an independent technique or combine & complement other healing modalities, including any form of singing, toning or work with sound & music.

Autophonetics Workshops are experience-based courses that allow you to work with sound, not music or music theory.

With other elements of INNER SOUND, external music & sound create movement internally. Autophonetics offers a way of working with your body creating movement from the inside & bringing that movement out, helping you express through your voice.
Develop greater personal expression & work with your body to release and express your own 'inner' sound.

Course Description

This module introduces you to the INNER SOUND motifs - the basis of this system. In musical terms, a motif is a short musical phrase made up of several notes that create a distinctive rhythmic pattern. INNER SOUND is a sound healing system based on relative movement. INNER SOUND motifs have a simple musical structure using a variety of scales including the pentatonic (five-note scale), some of the Greek modes and the Western diatonic scale.

•The motifs help areas in your system to remember their basic movement of expansion or contraction
•Depending on which instruments are used to play the motifs, aspects of you are touched - whether mental, emotional, physical or energetic.
•INNER SOUND motifs can help you create movement and change regardless of where you may be in your personal development
•INNER SOUND motifs help liberate trapped or blocked energy without proposing an external structure of how you should be or act or in what direction you should develop.

Course Content:
Introduction, Uses & Enhancement Exercises for:

21 musical motifs:
Motifs include: Alpha, Birth, Centering, Child, Cleaning, Conception, Contact, Contraction, Equalization, Lubrication, Amplification, Expansion, Foot Stimulation, Front/Back Alignment, Grounding, Hemispheric Balance, Hope, Integration, Left/Right Balance, Opening, Theta
