The Beginnings: A Childhood Marked by Sensitivity and Resilience

Othman Haddad, founder of Swiss Sound Therapy (SST), was born in Morocco into a large and loving family, but one shaped by traditional hierarchies and emotional tensions.

As the youngest of seven children, hypersensitive and hyperactive, he grew up in a challenging environment where violence in the streets and constant chaos amplified his personal struggles.

Despite these conditions, Othman stood out for his intelligence and dedication at school, encouraged by his mother, who saw immense potential in him.

 

Trauma and Revelation: A Connection to Inner Wisdom

During his adolescence, Othman experienced several traumatic events that revealed a unique capacity: an inner voice that guided him in moments of extreme danger.

  • At the age of 13, he narrowly avoided an attempted assault thanks to this inner voice, which gave him precise instructions to defend himself and escape.
  • At 16, he survived a violent attack while protecting a friend, once again guided by this inner strength.

These pivotal experiences laid the foundation for a deep connection to an inner wisdom that he didn’t fully understand at the time but that saved his life on multiple occasions.

 

Pain and the Search for Healing: A Journey of Self-Discovery

At 19, an accident during a handball match triggered chronic pain throughout his body. Unable to find answers, doctors attributed the pain to psychosomatic causes.

At 28, the loss of his mother plunged him into deep depression. This crisis marked a turning point, prompting him to question his beliefs, traditions, and outlook on life.

He embarked on a quest for healing and meaning, exploring alternative medicine, spiritual traditions, and psychology, all while continuing to endure intense physical and emotional pain.

 

Spiritual Revelations: Discovering the Power of the Present Moment

In 2008, reading The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle proved to be a life-changing revelation for Othman.

  • For two months, he experienced a profound state of ecstasy, feeling connected to the present moment like never before.
  • This experience transformed his perception of life and strengthened his determination to explore spiritual dimensions and find answers to his pain and inner struggles.

 

The Transition to Sound Therapy: From IT to Healing with Sound

Until 2011, Othman worked as an IT consultant, managing teams in banks and insurance companies. Despite financial stability, he felt deeply unfulfilled and overwhelmed by constant stress.

In 2012, he made a bold decision: to leave his IT career and dedicate himself entirely to sound therapy. This transition allowed him to combine his desire to help others with a healing method he had personally experienced.

 

The Awakening of Kundalini Energy: Harnessing Intense Power

In 2014, Othman began experiencing intense energy surges in his body, often associated with Kundalini energy awakening.

These powerful experiences required deep inner work to integrate and balance. They led him to explore practices such as Vipassana meditation, which helped him reconnect to his body and calm his mind.

 

Mediumship and Channeling: A New Dimension of Insight

In 2015, Othman discovered his mediumship abilities during training at the Arthur Findlay College in England.

  • He developed skills in channeling, altered states of consciousness, and connecting with his higher self.
  • These practices now enable him to access profound insights and guide his clients with intuitive wisdom, complementing the vibrational power of sound.

 

Teaching and Impact: A Journey Dedicated to Helping Others

Since 2012, Othman has worked with thousands of individuals through sound therapy.

  • He combines his mediumship expertise, 30 years of personal healing experience, and extensive knowledge gained from his full-time work as a sound therapist.
  • Today, he teaches sound therapy by integrating his channeling abilities and personal journey, offering a unique and transformative approach to his clients and students.
