The Medicine of Your Voice Method™ – Voice Teaching
THE MEDICINE OF YOUR VOICE METHOD Sessions are inspired by my studies in:
- Indian Classical Music with Pandit Shivnat Mishra in Varanasi, India.
- Harmonic Sound – The International Association of Sound Therapy, Spain
- Sound, Voice & Music Healing at CIIS (California Institute of Integral Studiesin San Francisco) and my research on sound, voice and music, neurology and traumatology based on the workt of Dr. John Beaulieu, Mitchel. L. Gaynor M.D. and Dr. Jeffrey Thompson.
- Family Constellation by Bert Hellinger
- Vipassana Meditation by S.N. Goenka

- The Compassionate Inquiry Approach by Dr. Gabor Mate
The Medicine of your Voice is a therapeutic process that uses the voice, sound, song and silence to create connection and integration within ourselves. Whether we are addressing the singing voice or the speaking voice, this process supports our vocal, personal and musical development. Part of this process is the uncovering of anything within us that seems to be in the way of either expressing our truth, sharing our gifts or singing our songs. We learn to notice contracted feelings within our bodies and emotions and to transform them into expansion.
“The voice naturally expresses the attitude of mind whether true or false, sincere or insincere”. Inayat Khan
“Bettina’s The Medicine of Your Voice workshop is by far one of the best workshops I’ve ever attended. It felt raw, real, genuine, and truly magical. I learned a lot, felt a lot, and experienced so much. Taking home ancient healing/voice practices that I’ve learned and the greater confidence I now hold within myself and my voice. Thank you so much for your guidance, support and service, Bettina, I am forever grateful and appreciative of you. Truly looking forward to attending more of your workshops in the future!”

“Life will bring you pain all by itself. Your responsibility is to create joy.” Dr. Milton Erickson”
“I booked the series of 10 Holistic Mentoring sessions with Bettina and I had a specific request. I wanted to manifest more music in my life and recreate myself so that I could later have a new professional ground in order to let go of my other job. I wanted to only do what matters to me. Music! Creating songs, working with people, giving singing workshops etc. and finding the right contacts are the result of this wonderful journey with Bettina. She reflected and witnessed what is in me, is ripe and wants to come to light. She strengthened the truth, my calling and supported it with her light. I took the direct steps myself and that is precisely the gift she gave me. To bring myself into my own strength.”— Mila, Hamburg, Germany

“Her work is a masterful fusion of sacred and world music that resonates deeply, transcending the surface and touching the very core of the human experience. The music she carries doesn’t merely fill the air with sound; it moves the soul, inviting listeners on a journey of emotional and spiritual discovery. Bettina’s artistry is a powerful reminder of music’s ability to unite us beyond borders and language.”
Bettina has published one book ‘The Medicine of your Voice – Conscious Living through Singing’ and recorded 8 CDs.

“As a human being I have the potential to heal and grow and eventually expand my consciousness. I believe that the expansion of consciousness is a medicine within the realm of self healing. And beyond that a powerful tool to participate in the healing and evolution of humanity.” — Bettina Maureenji

Vision & Mission
When I was a teenager I already asked myself the question: what is the meaning of life and why are we here? My upbringing as a single mum kid did not necessarily support my education in psychology or my quest, but at the same time it did support finding my own way of study and getting to what was available to me within the mainstream way of living at the time. Life always brought me exactly to the places where I needed to be. At the age of 16 I was deeply immersed in the poetry of Rumi and Hafiz and I was fascinated by the writings of Rajneesh, also known as Acharya Rajneesh, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, and later as Osho.
I had no idea what I got myself into. By now I can say I jumped utterly unconsciously into the cold water and found myself going through the depth and darkness of self discovery as a young woman. I never felt pity or depressed but rather rebellious with a sense of being initiated into something that eventually became my life’s mission.
I left Germany at the age of 28 to live in Spain and I never returned. That move from a stable, career focused and apparently safe life into the total unknown also opened the door to inner freedom that I was longing for. I knew that denying my longing or going for comfort over intuition would make me a very unhappy person. I know that choosing freedom in that moment brought me all the gifts of the last 30 years walking on this path of personal development, inner growth, healing and transformation. I am incredibly lucky and fortunate to have met the right people and teacher in music and therapy, in the perfect moments in each chapter of my life. Without all these wonderful people, life challenges and changes I would not be so devoted to my mission and vision.
It was in my early 30ies that I decided to go to India to deepen my Yoga studies. It was then that I found the sitar and deeply fell in love with that instrument and possibly I fell deeply in love with myself for the very first time in my life. I do not feel I am a musician in a classical sense of meaning. I consider myself a creator of space that allows us to feel love and unity. It simply happens to be that I got handed the tool of music. Music, the voice, sound and silence is a way for me to bring people together and to have a place for us to be open, vulnerable and ourselves.
After my time in India I was switched on and started my studies and research on sound, voice, music and healing. It was also the time that I got diagnosed with an autoimmune issue which again was a significant moment in my life. I decided to use myself as a case study and luckily I had enough strength to move through this very challenging part in my life and study what was happening in my body at the same time. I do know by now that the focus on researching within my own body has helped heal tremendously.
For me there is nothing more potent than digging deep into ourselves, healing and transformation. For our personal lives but also to be able to support others and participate in a way that makes life sparkle. Being devoted to Beauty is not an easy path. Real beauty is felt and seen together with the beast. In order to be and create beauty I have to be able to be with the beast.
It gives me great joy to witness people change when they start to discover the potency and beauty of their beings and voices. When I hear people say they are able to create a new story about themselves or even better no story at all anymore, that is when my heart starts to shine.
I am here to introduce you to this beautiful soul work that involves 2 ways of working with people. I am combining researched based sound and voice exercises, traditional Indian vocal exercises and therapeutic modalities within the field of personal development & emotional healing. I am also passionate about bringing the therapeutic forces of sound and music into the medical institutions as a remedy for relief whether we are ill or at the end of life. And there is something really special to support people to find their voices again after severe injuries or incidences.
Being an elder by now I am truly grateful to share my voice of wisdom with all of you and to be of service to the generations to come.
With love, Bettina
“My greatest strength in life and in my voice is my vulnerability”
