INTERMEDIATE LEVEL

Heal Your Life® Teacher Training (South Africa)

Learn to Teach the Art of Self-Healing.

Prerequisite: Completion of EQ101 & Ethical Practices (50 Hours)


Who is Louise Hay?

Louise Hay was a pioneer in the science of the mind-body connection. Her best-selling book, You Can Heal Your Life, has sold over 50 million copies worldwide and has been translated into 42 languages. She didn't just write a book; she started a revolution in how we understand the link between our thoughts, our health, and our success.


Join a Global Movement of Change
A Community Without Borders. When you train as a Heal Your Life® Teacher, you aren't just taking a course—you are joining one of the largest and most respected wellness communities on the planet.

  • Thousands of Licensed Teachers are currently working in over 70 countries.
  • Millions of lives have been transformed by these exact methods.
  • A Proven Science: While the work is deeply compassionate, it is built on the "Metaphysical Science" of how our belief systems create our physical reality.

By bringing this world-class training to South Africa, we are giving you the keys to a global heritage of healing. 


This is a 100-hour professional training,  divided into two parts. It is for those who have finished their foundation and now feel ready to lead others. This training prepares you for a license to teach Louise Hay’s world-famous healing techniques.

 

What You Will Learn

Part 1: The Teaching Foundation (70 Hours)

In this part, we get practical. You will learn how to use the official  Heal Your Life® Teacher Manual and Louise Hay’s books to empower others for self-healing.

  • Planning Lessons: Learn how to put a lesson together so it makes sense for your students.
  • Safe Guidance: Use the listening and observation skills you learned in the foundation level to hold a safe space for people’s emotions.
  • Professional Skills: Learn how to help a student to "unpack" their challenges without getting overwhelmed.


Part 2: Life Systems (30 Hours)

We look at the five main areas where people usually get stuck: Health, Relationships, Work, Success, and Money.

  • Finding Blocks: Help your clients see the "old stories" or beliefs that are stopping them from moving forward.
  • The Roadmap: Create a clear plan to help people change their habits and their thinking for good.


Who Is This For?

  • People who feel called to help their community heal.
  • Practitioners who want an official license to teach and reach more people.
  • Anyone who has finished our first two courses and wants to make this their work.


Professional Licensing & Certificates

Doing things the right way. This training is authorised by Hay House, Inc. and follows high international standards for quality and ethics.

  • Your License: This is a legal requirement. Once you finish your training and your first two case studies, we will apply for your license. This gives you the legal right to use the Heal Your Life® trademark, logo, materials, and textbooks, and links you to this world-famous brand.
  • The Portfolio: In South Africa, we believe in "learning by doing." To make sure you are a great teacher, you will complete a "Portfolio of Experience" (practical work) after your classroom hours.
  • The Certificate: You will receive your final Certificate of Completion once you have finished both your classroom training and your practical portfolio.

 


Training Logistics: The Journey of Growth

A Paced Approach to Mastery. 

Because the Teacher Training is your most immersive year, we do not rush the process. We pace the learning to give you enough space for theory, lesson planning, and, most importantly, your own personal healing and growth.


  • When: We begin every year the weekend after Easter.
  • Format: A blend of online sessions and deep personal study.
  • Weekly Schedule: * Saturday Mornings: Our primary group learning sessions.

Weekday Mornings: Optional additional sessions (offered when we have enough participants for a group).


The Experience: This is a "Slow-Growth" model. We ensure you have the time to settle into the new layer of your self-growth journey before you begin leading others.

The Pathway Forward

Ready for the next level? Expand Your Impact

While you are busy building your professional portfolio and completing your case studies, you don't have to wait to keep learning. 

You can enrol in our Heal Your Life® Workshop Facilitator Training next.


From Lessons to Immersive Experiences. This training is a natural expansion of your skills. While the Teacher Training focuses on lessons and talks, the Facilitator level teaches you how to create deep, immersive experiences, such as:

  • Full-weekend "Love Yourself, Heal Your Life" workshops.
  • Multi-day retreats.
  • Advanced group processes.

This is where you learn to hold space for a true transformation over several days. It’s for the practitioner who is ready to move from "teaching" to "facilitating" a life-changing journey. 

Heal Your Life® Workshop Facilitator Training

Heal Your Life® Workshop Facilitator Training (South Africa)

Master the Original Art of Transformation.

Prerequisite: Completion of EQ101, Ethical Practices, and Teacher Training.


Before there was the book You Can Heal Your Life, there was the workshop. This is the original, powerful experience that Louise Hay created to help people change their lives in real-time.

This 7-day, in-person intensive is the next step in your journey. It moves you from teaching individual lessons to facilitating a full, immersive weekend experience. You will learn how to hold a "High-Frequency" space where a whole group can move through deep healing together.


Training Highlights

The Science of Group Transformation. This is a hands-on, practical week where you step into the role of a leader. We focus on:

  • The Signature Workshop: Learn to lead the world-famous "Love Yourself, Heal Your Life" weekend workshop exactly as Louise intended.
  • Managing Group Dynamics: Learn the science of watching the "Relational Field" of a whole room. You will learn how to support one person without losing the attention or safety of the rest of the group.
  • Mastering Presence: Practice being the "Anchor" in the room. You will use your listening and observation skills to guide people through their own self-healing in a group setting.
  • Intensive Preparation: Build the professional confidence to host your own retreats and workshops with total integrity.


Who This Training Is For

  • Licensed Heal Your Life® Teachers: Those ready to expand from short talks to full weekend workshops and retreats.
  • Leaders: Practitioners who want to gain deep experience in leading transformative group programs.
  • Space-Holders: People called to create a safe, empowering environment where real growth happens.


Professional Membership & Certificates

Global Recognition. Since you are already a Licensed Heal Your Life® Teacher, you do not need a new license. Instead, you earn a Membership Upgrade.

  • Global Profile: This qualification is added to your international profile on the global Heal Your Life® directory, showing you are now a certified Facilitator.
  • The Portfolio: Just like your Teacher Training, your professional standing in South Africa depends on your "Portfolio of Experience." This ensures you have practised these skills in the real world.
  • The Certificate: You will receive your Facilitator Certificate once your classroom hours and your practical portfolio are both successfully finished.


Standards & Integrity

This training is authorised by Hay House, Inc. and is self-regulated.  As a facilitator, you commit to a strict code of ethics and professional integrity. You will leave this training fully prepared to empower others to overcome their limits and change their lives, the Heal Your Life® way.

Training Logistics at a Glance

When: An annual event every September or October.


Where: Hosted in Johannesburg 


Format: 7-Day Intensive, Non-Residential.

The Pathway Forward

Ready for the next level? From Group Leadership to Individual Deep Support.

As a Heal Your Life® Workshop Facilitator, you have mastered the art of holding a room. But as your community grows, you may find that certain participants need more than a group experience. They may be navigating deep Grief or complex Inner Conflict that requires a more focused, one-on-one presence. 


Why take this step? 

The Emotional Support & Supportive Counselling certification is the natural evolution for the advanced practitioner. It allows you to:

  • Deepen Your Observation: Move from "managing the group" to "seeing the soul" of the individual in distress.
  • Stay Within Your Ethics: Gain the professional language and referral skills to support people safely without overstepping your role.
  • Professional Alignment: Prepare your portfolio for independent registration with bodies like the ASCHP, giving you a formal professional identity in South Africa.

Emotional Support & Supportive Counselling Training

Emotional Support & Supportive Counselling

Advanced Skills for the Professional Practitioner.

Prerequisite: Heal Your Life® Teacher or Facilitator Certification.


In the world of self-healing, we often encounter deep topics like Grief and Inner Conflict. To lead these sessions safely, a practitioner needs more than just a teaching manual; they need a professional "Safety Net."


This 60-hour certification is designed to provide that net. It bridges the gap between being a Teacher and being a Supportive Counselor. You will learn the science of observing emotional distress and the ethical tools to provide grounded, responsible support.


Core Training Pillars

1. Identifying Emotional Distress

Learn to recognise the early signs of emotional overwhelm. This allows you to support a student during a workshop before the distress escalates, ensuring a safe environment for everyone.

2. Supportive Counselling for Grief & Conflict

Grief is not something to be "fixed," but something to be witnessed. You will learn:

  • The "Steady Anchor" Presence: How to stay grounded while a student processes deep loss or conflict.
  • The Metaphysics of Release: Understanding the somatic (body) signals of grief.

3. Ethical Referral & Boundaries

The mark of a professional is knowing when a situation requires a Psychologist or a clinical specialist. You will master the "Warm Handover", learning how to refer a student to professional help responsibly and compassionately.


Professional Pathways & The ASCHP

Bridging the Gap to Professional Recognition.

In South Africa, the ASCHP (Association for Supportive Counsellors and Holistic Practitioners) provides a professional home for those working in fields that go beyond traditional government accreditation—such as spiritual, metaphysical, and holistic counselling.

  • Independent Membership: Please note that the ASCHP is an independent professional body. They handle their own onboarding and applications. They do not "affiliate" with training schools, but they align with our high standards for ethics and professional integrity.
  • School Validation: As a graduate, you apply for membership directly with the ASCHP. To support your application, the School of Applied Metaphysics will provide a formal confirmation of all your hours—from your Foundation levels (EQ101) through to Teacher and Facilitator training, including your Portfolio of Experience (PoE) hours.
  • The Benefit: This process allows your "non-accredited" (but highly structured) learning to be recognised by a professional body, giving you a formal identity as a Supportive Counsellor in the private and spiritual sector.

Training Logistics at a Glance

Availability: This course is offered periodically throughout the year once a sufficient group of practitioners is ready for this advanced level of study.


Duration: 60-Hour Certification.


Format: A 12-week online journey combining live interactive sessions with self-study and practical application.


Focus: Advanced observation and ethical support for deep grief and inner conflict.


Prerequisite: Open only to Certified Heal Your Life® Teachers and Facilitators.

The Pathway Forward

Ready for the next level? From Emotional Support to Transformational Coaching.

As a certified Supportive Counselor, you have learned how to be a steady anchor for those in distress. You know how to hold space for grief and inner conflict. But as your practitioners grow, they will eventually move past the "crisis" and start asking: "What now? How do I build the life I actually want?"


Why take this step?

The Advanced Coaching level is the final evolution in our pathway. While counseling focuses on support and stability, coaching focuses on purpose and forward movement. It allows you to:

  • Master the Shift: Learn when to stop "supporting" the old story and start "building" the new one with your client.
  • Deepen the Science: Move into the highest level of Applied Metaphysics—learning how to help others consciously architect their own reality.
  • Professional Mastery: Complete the 2-to-3-year journey that turns you into a senior leader in the field, with the hours and experience to prove it.
