Here are a few things you migh like to know:

- I am the only Tibetan Bowl practitioner Certified through the state of California, a Polarity Practitioner and member of Sound Healers Association and Healing Music Organization. I offer private sessions at my home office and when I am on the road for concert tours.

Diane- I have had ZERO pain since I left you.  No Tylenol.  No pain.  The work that you do is amazing and powerful.  If I hadn't experienced it I wouldn't believe myself. You are way better than Tylenol and Vicodin.   Feel free to quote me on that.  Thank you -  Victoria

- I am a Sounds True recording artist, author, practioner sound healing expert featured in the video series- Tao:Living in Balance, to be released in the Usa and China. Offering concerts feel like prayer moving through me.

"Over the years I have heard many different concerts and meditations using the Tibetan bowls and I have to say that Diane Mandle is in a class by herself when it comes to creating a Divine experience for those who are present at one of her sound healing concerts."
 Will Scott, MA, Sacred Intuitive Healing for Mind, Body and Spirit 

-As an Internationally recognized authority on Tibetan Bowl Sound Healing, I have appeared on NPR television and radio, published twenty ebooks on sound healing (Kindle & Nook) and released a major book Ancient Sounds for a New Age. This book is a culmination of 20 years of practice and experience in my field.

Diane has the unique capacity of helping patients enhance thier selfe of well being and quality of life, especiallay in the midst of going through significant medical challenges including cancer. Diane does her healing work with great compassion, wisdom, devotion, love and deep care for those she is supporting. I can't wait for her new book to become available to anyone who wants to increase their knowledge of the poser of Tibetan bowls to enhance healing, innter peace and sense of well being.

- A gift of my bi-cultural background (French mother and American father) allowed me to spend my childhood traveling between Southern France and the US. This was fortunate in that it gave me two languages and two cultures to draw from, so early on I developed a sensibilty to sound and rhythm in a very practical manner. As I matured and was attracted to dance, I was very drawn to the poly rhythms of African and Latin music and traveled extensively learning to dance in these cultures.

My undergraduate degree was in Theater and Dance through Stevens College in Columbia MO and the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, MA . I obtained my Masters degree in cross cultural communication at the School for International Training in Brattleboro, VT. with a thesis on African music.

My interest has always been to build bridges through the arts and communication as a way to help people on a deep level.Later, in my work as a Life Coach there was still something missing for me that needed to be integrated and that brought my love of movement,sound, multiculturalism into my every day life. My work as a Chamber of Commerce Director in Amherst, followed by Regional Director of the American Cancer Society for Western MA, was rewarding financially but my soul needed nourishment.

I was certified and individually mentored by Sonam Dorje (Richard Rudis), founder of Sacred Sound Workshops, and a pioneer in the arena of Sound Healing. When Richard retired from conducting healings and devoted himself to teaching instead,he passed the 'sound healer' torch on to me. I have been practicing Sound Healing since 2000, and obtained certification through the state of California in 2004. I traveled to Nepal, India and Tibet to immerse myself to further my studies and understanding of the culture these instruments come from so I can bring that knowledge to my sound healing practice.

I believe that our memories, in the form of energy, are stored in our muscles and cells and organs. Many of the attitudes, beliefs and behaviors that drive our lives are in our cells but just out of reach of our consciousness.When we are out of energetic alignment, (which we mostly are), our blocked or weak energy creates dis-ease. We can access these stored memories though sound to release and then strengthen areas that need healing. My treatments offer a pathway to reconnect with essence and wholeness.

I worked almost four years with at the San Diego Cancer Center as part of their Integrative therapy team, then developed and implemented a program of sound healing and meditation for encarcerated veterans with PTSD.
