We firmly believe our new Training Programme offers the most comprehensive and carefully structured dowsing tuition in the world.
BSD courses are led by our acclaimed and inspirational Registered Tutors, most of whom are members of our Professional Register. This means you are taught by dowsers with practical, current experience in their highly specialist fields of health, water divining, earth energies & environmental healing.
While recognising there are many ways to learn dowsing, we are confident in our claim to take you from complete beginner to expert level in your chosen field. Dowsing responsibly, in a safe and suitable environment, at your own pace, BSD courses are the essential ingredient to help you complete your development into an accomplished dowser. Additional knowledge from Special Interest Groups enhance your skills to make a truly rounded and practised dowser, ready to share the knowledge you have gained with others.
New to our courses package in 2009 is ‘General and Practical Dowsing'. This course gives you a comprehensive view of dowsing for tangible targets such as pipes, cables and drains. These tasks typify just the sort of jobs dowsers are asked to do in an engineering context as well as in the home, and the course includes tuition in the location of lost objects.
For Earth Energy addicts we are delighted to introduce a series of six new courses. This exciting development now features:
Environmental Healing: Foundation
Environmental Healing 1: Understanding Geopathic Stress
Environmental Healing 2: Understanding Geopsychic Stress
Environmental Healing: Techno
Earth Energies: Power Centres
Environmental Healing: Advanced
We suggest starting with the EH Foundation (which assumes a competency in basic dowsing), moving onto EH 1 and 2 if you wish to specialise in Geopathic Stress, or choosing Earth Energies: Power Centres for geomantic specialisation. These courses culminate in the Advanced Environmental Healing Course. An additional workshop - EH:Techno looks at electromagnetic 'smog', air quality and pollutants, general cleanliness etc.
Please call or email us if you would like more information or guidance, we will be most happy to help. The aims and objectives of each course are described below the course details, to explain a little of the background).
Not all of these courses are timetabled yet, but we hope to provide most of them for the first time this year.(see below) Please check here regularly - this is where the news will be appearing first!
