Harry Edwards Academy – Healer Training & Diploma

A two-year part-taught and part-self-study programme for those who wish to become a Harry Edwards Foundation certified healer.

Those taking this course will first need to attend our In Person Foundation Course or Online Foundation Course.

At the Harry Edwards Foundation Academy we aim to assist students to understand healing energy, how it works & how they can utilise their skills in a practical & safe manner. We cover various methods of healing including Distant Healing for which Mr. Harry Edwards was celebrated. We are also unique in offering supervised practice healing in our Healing Foundation which is open 7 days a week.

The course comprises 7 module weekends over a two year period which includes personal tuition together with a workbook to evidence the practical experience and personal development required for completion. The two years also allows time for study, assessment exercises and the chance for individual tuition.

The course syllabus is quite comprehensive in nature, dealing with all aspects of healing and physiology. Upholding the finest traditions of the Harry Edwards Healing Foundation, it also studies the Code of Conduct by which every Healer abides, together with current legislation.

HEF is aligned to UK Healers and the course carries UK Healers’ Accreditation.

After completion of the two year course students are assessed and the successful graduated healer is awarded the Harry Edwards Healing Academy Diploma in Understanding and Practice of Spiritual Healing and they are included in the Harry Edwards Healer Register and are entitled to be called Harry Edwards Full Healers.

Our healer Training course is held at the Harry Edwards Foundation, Burrows Lea, Shere, Surrey, UK. We have different options to suit local, national and international students. Training courses run each year with options of weekend or weekday dates, day students or residential stays.

Testimonials

  • "Margaret has a gift to communicate with such feeling, clear thoughts & thinking, and she made every day as though it was the easiest thing to do!"
  • "I absolutely loved this course.  It was relaxed, informative and fun. A lovely balance of serious learning and creativity. It brought about awareness of each other and ourselves. Just the way it intended.   Margaret is a wonderful, warm and relaxed tutor.   I would like to do it all again!"   Emma  
  • "The 'Healer Know Thyself’ has to be, one of the most beautiful nourishing, nurturing and healing courses I have ever done, and so heartfelt, thank you Margaret."

  • I absolutely loved this day.   How it was organised was just right.

    Louise is such a good tutor.  Her tone and deliberation is easy and relaxed and she has a very good presence that allows relaxation.

    The whole day was a pleasure to be part of and the content was perfect.

    It was split into sections that just flowed into each other.    Louise was great at time keeping without making it obvious.

    The day flew by so easily and pleasurably.

  • "I decided to do The Harry Edwards Healing Course having read a lot about Harry Edwards’ healing work many years ago. He had struck me as being a very matter of fact , down to earth person even though he had proved to be a superb healer. The actual healing course very much replicated his spirit; it was very thorough, as well as being  based upon the premise of great openness and non judgmental attitudes. It was always a joy to walk in through those doors.

    I have learned much about myself and about the practice of healing; much more than I was expecting, on both counts. I  envy anyone starting the course for the first time as you have a great treat in store."

    Cassandra

  • "Each Module was very enlivened and geared to the title of this course, and Margaret facilitated, so professionally and lovingly well, each day we were all together bought out so much from each one of us, that I so wish it was a course that lasted longer"
