MetaMusic Teachings
Become A Sound Alchemist
Exploring, learning, and practicing how to create resonant fields from which deep transformation, inner guidance, and healing arise.
Music is a universal language and allows us to have meta-sensory experiences, especially when combined with guided meditations, active visualizations, body awareness, and felt emotions.
The word meta means beyond, transcendent, in between. What is music a metaphor of? What is in between the notes and way beyond the musical instruments that makes music a transformative and impactful tool? What is in music that makes us transcend reality or our feelings?
MetaMusic is the development of Laura Inserra’s work around the universal, transformative, evolutive, and healing power of music. In this context music becomes experiential, personalized medicine, and metaphor of life - a tool for personal development, spiritual guidance, and integrated healing.
MetaMusic teachings are tools for personal development, a compass to navigate life, and a healing method to support each other. During this course of studies and practices you will learn how to become a Sound Alchemist, while experiencing immersive sound journeys, sacred ceremonies, shamanic vision quests, and hands-on practices. You will also learn self-healing practices to use for yourself and in your work with others.
This comprehensive body of work is the compendium of her 30+ years of studies and initiations in ancient traditions and modern schools of wisdoms like like Alchemy, Vedic Traditions, Daoism, mythology, psychology, shamanism, folk music, alternative medicines, western science as well as the direct observation of nature.
She teaches this body of work in different stages: the Foundation Course, the Training and the Modules. Let's explore more...

The Foundation Course Program
MetaMusic Course is divided into 3 Parts. These Parts are just the loose borders of a single territory but essential stages to its understanding and embodiment. As such they need to be considered, integrated, and embraced as a Unity. Here below a simple description of their areas and functional properties.
Part 1 (Source) is about discovering the nature of sound; ways in which sound becomes music; what makes music such a powerful tool for deep transformation and healing; the power carried in the intention; the alchemy between the instruments and the practitioner; what is needed to create sound journeys and sacred ceremonies; and more...
Part 2 (Self) is about discovering how to ‘tune’ to Yourself; how to show up; how to connect to Your ‘inner environment’; learning self-care practices; empowering your ‘voice’ print’; which tools can be useful to facilitate presence, personal transformation, and wellbeing; and more...
Part 3 (Self-Other) is about exploring how to extend and express yourself through your instruments; how to connect and move toward the Other; how to navigate the fields of the ‘invisible’ while being anchored in Yourself; how to trust the ‘larger orchestration’; how to become a Unity with the flow of manifestation; and more...
Inside the areas of these 3 Parts we will shine light on the below topics from different corners and perspectives. The order and the amount of topics delivered depends on each single cohort formed around its own Course. I always leave room for the group flow of wisdom to influence the information here provided - I call this working and life approach Structured Improvisation.

MetaMusic Foundation Course Required
MetaMusic Training is a series of 4-week programs of in depth learning, analyzing, and practicing sessions for those you have already taken the Foundation Course or any previous Training cycle. Every Training has a unique program and is an iteration of the previous ones, bringing new topics, tools, and discoveries.
Every session will be recorded and shared with you, so that you can review and integrate the content at your pace.
As a continuation of the Foundation Course, the structure of the Training is based on the development of the 3 main pillars:
-
Learning (Source) - we will deepen the topics of the Foundation Course while learning new perspectives and dynamics.
-
Analyzing (Self) - we will watch and analyze together Sound Journeys and learn new tools through guided listening and felt recognition.
-
Practicing (Self-Other) - we will practice sound journeys, sacred ceremonies, guided meditations, shamanic journeys, self-care practices, and a variety of healing modalities.
In order to access different aspects of this body of work, we will engage with 3 archetypal characters - the Teacher, the Healer, and the Shaman. We will use the guidance of these pathways and modalities to create a holistic approach to personal transformation and collective healing, as well as strengthen our natural skills and acquired capabilities.
MetaMusic Training is offered online and open ONLY for those who have taken the Foundation Course. We will meet and interact face-to-face via Zoom. Each session will be recorded and shared with you, so that you can review and integrate the content at your pace.

FAQ
A lot of you have asked me these questions so I thought I should share them with the rest of our community.
Q: Do I need to have a music instrument or to be a musician to take the MetaMusic Foundation Course?
A: No. You are an instrument and a sound alchemist already in your daily life. What is needed is your presence and the unique gifts you came into this life with. Just join us and, when you are ready, share that with the global community. Plus we will make instruments together... that's my favorite part of the Course ;o)
Q: What’s a virtual course?
A: It’s a great way to learn via pre-recorded teachings at your own pace from the comfort of your home! All you need is a computer, a mobile device, or a telephone. If there’s more than one person in your household taking the course, be sure to have headphones for each person during the experiential music journeys.
Q: Can you tell me about MetaMusic Network and the community around it?
A: MetaMusic means beyond music, or beyond what most often we have considered music to be. In this community, music becomes experiential, functional, a metaphor of life, and it carries inner guidance and deep transformative properties. For us Meta also means Multidisciplinary Education, Training, and Apprenticeship. The vision is to build a community with a common interest in ancient arts and schools of wisdoms like Alchemy, Vedic Traditions, Daoism, Mythology, Shamanism, Esotericism, Psychology, Science as well as the direct observation of Mother Nature. Our mission is to allow the human potential to flourish beyond any human condition or social restriction.
Q: Are there scholarships still available?
A: Yes, there is the possibility to apply for a scholarships. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. I am committed to allow the human potential to flourish beyond any monetary restriction. If you’d like to apply for a scholarship, please fill out the online form at https://www.laurainserra.com/scholarship

"I love Laura’s genuineness and warmth while sharing her experience. She draws from a deep reservoir of knowledge, wisdom, and spirit. Her willingness to experiment and ‘see what happens’ allows for letting go of the inner critic!" ~ Heidi Irgens
"This course set me on a learning curve working with sound, vibration and frequencies. It has broadened my understanding of sound in its many forms and ways of presentation and opened me up to really feeling sound in my body, mind, emotions and spirit. Laura's sound journeys were so different from anything I have previously experienced and in her space she gently allows me to experience sound in an all encompassing way.....very expansive. This course was fascinating on so many different levels and even now after completion of the course my body, mind, emotions and soul are still realigning in a new way. Stay tuned !! Who knows what will come next??!!" ~ Pat Owen
