Free Your Voice, Sound Your Soul: Part 2: The Innocent Expression: Healing the Silenced Inner Child)

Shamanic Journeys of Vocal Reclamation Retreat Workshops

Part 2: The Innocent Expression: Healing the Silenced Inner Child)

“ If there is one workshop that i recommend you attend this year, it is Faye's Sound Your Soul. It changed my life!  Sarah ”

Sound is a powerful form of healing and clearing. We are all vibration and the voice has been proven to be the most powerful form of vibrational healing around, especially using your own voice on yourself. Our voice is the blueprint of our souls. Come and discover, unlock and reveal your true blueprint. Make friends with your voice. Grow in confidence. Empowering you to use your authentic voice confidently. This is a transformative and deeply healing workshop/retreat.

"One of the best workshops I attended in 2019 was Faye Bradbury's 'Sound your Soul & Liberate your Authentic Self' workshop. I would highly recommend Faye as a practitioner & this workshop to anyone wanting to experience the powerful healing benefits of sound. Faye is an expert in this field & has a fun teaching style." Emily

Many of us experience some levels of reticence or blockages around our throat chakra and expressing our needs or ourselves can cause consternation, hesitation or complete closure of our throats. Many people struggle to hear their voices back in a recording or on a video. It is one of the deepest levels of self-acceptance (accepting yourself in its entirety on video is another). It takes many people that come to this workshop a lot of courage to even get in their car to drive to it, but, without exception, every single person that took their courage in their hands and made the journey, made a courageous, self-empowering step into future freedom. Many had significant physical shifts in their lives and all had internal shifts. ♥

"I attended the Vocal Workshop on Sunday 20/1 and it was amazing and spectacular all in one. Enabling me to find my inner ‘howl’ and rip away the lack of self confidence within. My throat chakra opened well and truly. A most empowering session with support and love throughout. I highly recommend this workshop to everyone.♥" Natalie

One of the things I have noticed in many of my sound baths and 1:1 sessions over the years, is how much energetic throat healing I do for groups and individuals before and during a session, accompanied by my instruments. ​

Free Your Voice, Sound Your Soul has evolved into a 4 part series of retreat day workshops, giving you time in between each one (if you decide to attend all 4) to integrate and practice and to complete personal journals on your journey’s progress. Each one may also be attended as a stand-alone but please be aware that the work gets deeper as we go forward so it would be beneficial to come together as a group and form a bond of trust between you as we go forward into deeper work. These then culminate in either/or/and: a retreat over summer solstice to the Temples in Malta/a residential weekend in the UK..​

My questions for you are these:

• Do you ever feel a physical lump or a blockage in your throat when you want to speak your truth?

• Do you stop yourself from speaking up and then hold that energy inside?

• Does your voice shake when you set a boundary or do you keep quiet rather than set them?

• Do you dislike the sound of your own voice when it is played back to you?

• Do you speak in a rush, in fear or anxiety, and the words come out all wrong and then spend ages agonising about it over and over it in your head?

Your voice is the primary instrument of your soul’s manifestation, it carries the vibration of your soul which affects our physical, mental, emotional, etheric and spiritual bodies. Vibration is powerful; a manifestor, a healer a releaser, a recallibrator. What we say, especially to ourselves, matters, yet life has often taught us to quieten our power to keep the peace or because we have been criticised or are staying small and so on.

If any of the above resonated with you, I invite you to step across the threshold into Free Your Voice, Sound Your Soul—a dedicated, 4-part series of deep somatic and shamanic day-retreats designed to systematically unblock, release, and manifest your authentic expression.

Please note: This is nothing to do with singing. You do not need to be musical. This is about raw, unfiltered energetic reclamation. It is about learning to let your soul make sound, without judgment and the first workshop retreat day is a taster and the first step onto a path of reclaiming your voice and hearing your soul speak clearly through it.

​On these retreat workshop days, I invite you to step away from the noise and enter a sacred, historic container designed to unblock your creative fire, release old conditioning, and awaken your authentic expression.

Held in the beautiful Haywain Barn at the historic and beautiful Haywain Barn, Hellens Manor, Much Marcle, this day retreat blends somatic voice practices with deep ritual. Together, as part of the retreat workshop, we will walk the manor's beautiful gardens for grounding and integration, weather permitting.​

Part 2: The Innocent Expression: Healing the Silenced Inner Child)

​November 15th 2026:  09:45 - 16:30/17:00. The Haywain Barn, Hellen's Manor, Much Marcle, Herefordshire

​The Invitation

Let's be honest, most of us didn’t start life afraid of or disliking our own voice. As children, we made sound freely—we laughed loudly, cried openly, and spoke our raw truth. Then, society, school, or family dynamics stepped in. We were told to shush, to be quiet, to sit down, or to keep the peace. Perhaps we were bullied or shamed by other kids or siblings, teachers, neighbours or family members. We quickly learned to swallow our voice to stay safe, often growing into adults who feel a physical lump in the throat, whose voices shake when setting a boundary, or who flatly dislike the sound of their own expression or disliking their given name. We even learn to shrink back when introducing ourselves.

This is, again, not about singing, rather, it is a therapeutic, and somatic space to help you start to give your silenced inner child their absolute expression back. In addition to the deep work there will also be moments of laughter and silliness as is befitting the inner child.

​Whether you attended Part 1 or are stepping into this circle for the very first time, you are welcome exactly as you are.

The Morning Medicine: Exposing & Freeing the Silence

We gather within the warm, timber frame of the Haywain Barn to drop out of the adult mind and into the body.

• The Inner Child Guided Meditation: A gentle, deep subconscious journey to safely meet, comfort, and connect with the younger version of you who learned to hide away.

• Somatic Vocal Warm-ups: Unlocking the physical throat, jaw, and chest, preparing the body to hold sound without judgment.

• The Sound & Healing Circle: Together, we safely explore where you were silenced, when it happened, and who held the key to that silence. Within a powerfully held circle, Faye will facilitate deep emotional release and healing work on each individual, culminating in a fully channelled, unique healing song gifted to each person in the quiet space afterward.

The Afternoon Medicine: Stripping the Layers & Reclaiming Joy

• The Silent Nature Medicine Walk: We step out into the ancient grounds of Hellens Manor in total silence. With no instruments or distractions, you will practice gentle "toning" (vocalising soft, elongated vowel sounds) to soothe your nervous system, allowing your morning processing to settle. You will ask the land to mirror an object to you that represents the weight or beauty of your name.

• Deconstructing Identity ("Who Are You?"): Returning to the barn, we work in deep inquiry pairs. We speak our names over and over, reclaiming their sovereign vibration. Then, we ask the ultimate question: Who are you? Together, we peel back the labels, the roles, and the childhood programming until the name strips away, leaving you anchored in your ultimate soul essence: pure love.

• The Voice of Playfulness: We close our container by returning to the natural state of a healed inner child: pure, uninhibited joy. We will blend our voices to sing "You Are My Sunshine" as a tender, sacred lullaby to our younger selves, before rising together to sing the universal earth-medicine song "The River Is Flowing," celebrating our collective, wild, and unbound expression.

By the end of each workshop you may:

*Hear the joy of your soul's vibration through your voice

*Open up your throat chakra

*Gain confidence in using your voice, which will transfer into day to day life

*Make friends with your voice

*Boost your self esteem.

*Learn how to be silly without judgement of yourself

*Shown how to have fun with your voice

*Use voice and movement to shake off those shackles and restraints a lot of us have around our vocal chords and expression.

*You will be encouraged to express yourselves freely, wildly and marvellously!

*And to channel whatever comes through to you without thinking about it

*You will leave smiling, feeling uplifted and liberated ♥

Your Facilitator

I am Faye Bradbury, a Sound Therapist and Eco-Shamanic Practitioner and have been using my voice as a healing instrument for a number of years. I had problems with feeling unheard and expressing my authenticity vocally, like many women, and I was also scared to speak out or indeed in front of an audience... for me to be singing in front of complete strangers took me an enormous leap of faith and courage, I now trust my work, so keep channelling singing and doing what I do but it is also a work in progress. I also have my wobbles and I am still growing and learning especially around expressing my truth. I would now like to share some of this to help other women and men hear their own souls and to become more confident in expressing themselves authentically and vocally.​

I offer one on one channelled sound healing sessions and group channelled healing sound meditations, where I channel voices of the Ancestors, Galactic beings and the Seraphim collective and activate you. I have been channelling these voices all my life ♥
