Therapeutic Music and Music-Based Self-Counseling
Jeff offers Muzoracle castings—music-based, guided self-counseling sessions—and Swenakailo, the therapeutic music bath experience that works in tandem with them— at The Seventh Harmonic, his healing space in Palm Desert, California. Muzoracle castings are insightful, creative, and empowering; Swenakailo, which employs custom-tuned crystal bowls and bells, electronics, Jeff’s voice, chanting, and Reiki energy, and is deeply relaxing, balancing, and grounding ... and can set the stage for self-healing. Both the Muzoracle and Swenakailo are of Jeff's invention.
Private Muzoracle castings and Swenakailo are available by appointment. Jeff also gives talks on music and mysticism and performs group castings and music baths fairly often—be sure and join the mailing list below and he'll keep you apprised.
