	Mission Statement
	The Centre For Pure Sound is conceived as a multi-denominational not-for-profit 'virtual ashram' dedicated to research into and practical application of the use of pure sounds-sounds that do not produce overtones-for personal and planetary healing, meditation and ascension, incorporating all aspects of the worlds wisdom traditions that relate to these modalities, e.g. overtoning and Tibetan bowls, and newer techniques and tools that have been made available to humanity at this time of crisis and/or opportunity for evolution, e.g. crystal bowls. It has no membership fees or structure, is an 'invisible school' and wants to stay that way, but welcomes unofficial links with all individuals and groups working with true integrity and healing intent (rather than an eye for 'success' in a corrupt market-place) in the field of healing sound and/or music, and indeed all individuals and groups working under the above 'illumined obedience to the Higher Will' in whatever way towards global peace, healing, evolution, spiritual renewal, ecological sustainability, respect for all life forms-the 'New Jerusalem'. We do not believe that any one ethnic group or culture has all the answers, but that all the world's wisdom traditions reflect ultimately a shared pool of deeper knowledge known as 'the Perennial Philosophy' which lie at the core of their apparent disparate and separate forms. We also believe in a movement back towards this unity of vision and a reconciliation and rapprochement of what have become splintered aspects of knowledge: thus THE CENTRE FOR PURE SOUND incorporates as a sub-heading of its mission a move towards a 'New Pythagoreanism' where the disparate branches of sound, mathematics, sacred geometry, gematria, language, physics, music, harmony, medicine, healing, poetry, architecture, literature, the visual arts, and so on, are re-united and found to be in at-one-ment. For details of soundbaths, talks, overtoning workshops, 1-1 healing sessions, space-clearing, ceremonies, etc visit THE CENTRE FOR PURE SOUND

11-06-08	Healing Power of Pure Sound
Weymouth	Speaker: Dean Carter

01-06-08	Unleash the Power of your Voice
Childe Okeford	One day introduction to overtoning Facilitator: Dean Carter
	Vocal overtone chanting is a uniquely powerful form of meditation and thus self-healing, and/or can be used for the healing of others. The pure sounds already inherent in our voice when made audible have a specific effect on the body/mind to produce what has been called the RelaxationResponse, the direct opposite of the fight or flight response that most of us in the West are plagued by. At the *Centre for Pure Sound* we believe that all mantra-based meditation was originally a matter of vocal overtoning. I guarantee that by the end of the session even a novice will have produced audible overtones. This introductory workshop will then qualify you to participate in later intensive workshops which deepen the process. Vocal overtoning is the most empowering practice we know of. You will also in the course of the day LEARN THE TRUE PRONUNCIATION OF OM! PLUS we end the day with a healing crystal/ Tibetan bowl and overtoning soundbath. Venue: OASIS HEALING CENTRE, CHILDE OKEFORD nr. Sturminster Newton. Cost: £20 booking deposit required, £40 for day (concs £20). The secrets of overtoning and the true pronunciation of OM!
