Individuals, Couples, Families

Individual sessions allow time, space, and safety for some of the deepest revelations and healing possible. Sessions for couples and families can help harmonize  relationships while bringing what's most authentic forward for each person. In these types of sessions there are typically three stages:
  1. Preparing for singing (10-20 minutes)
  2. Singing (20-40 minutes)
  3. Discussion and strengthening discoveries from singing (20-30 minutes)
The exact length of time depends on the needs of the individual(s) present in each session. For families and couples we usually sing to each person present as well as the whole unit. A personal, couple, or family session promises to be an exciting voyage of discovery for all involved. Contact us for pricing information and other details regarding these sessions.

Small Groups

For groups up to about 25 people we take a few minutes to sing to each individual in the group. Most small group sessions last 2.5 hours. People in attendance consistently report that the songs sung to others in the group benefit them immensely. The structure for small groups is as follows:
  • Introductions, rules, creating sacred space (30 minutes)
  • Group preparation and meditation (15 minutes)
  • John and Robin sing to each person in the group (1 hour)
  • Group toning (15 minutes)
  • Silence (5 minutes)
  • Commitments and closing (25 minutes)
The above times are approximate depending on the needs of the group. In order to create a safe space for everyone involved we take great measures to make sure all involved are in control of their degree of participation. Some people choose to opt out of being sung to directly and soak in the songs of others. There is a consistent experience of profound communion by the end of the group toning which makes the following silence something remarkable - as if the group has become one. Contact us if sponsoring or participating in a small group sparks your interest. Click here for a more thorough description of our small group events.

Large Groups

In the large group format we sing to the whole group as one entity instead of singing to each individual. We were surprised, at first, to receive feedback that, on the whole, large group participants obtain similar benefits to those in the small groups - although some missed the direct two-to-one singing. Here are some of the advantages of large groups
  • Most benefit for most people
  • Shorter time (event can last from 15 minutes to 1.5 hours)
  • More flexibility in format depending on group needs
The greatest benefit seems to come when there is ample time for the group to resonate with the Singing Medicine. More time provides opportunities for all involved to drop the usual patterns of daily life that are often mistaken for the self and to soak in the resonance of their deeper being. Therefore, our minimum time for any group engagement is fifteen minutes. One half hour will double the effectiveness for your group. The increase in benefits after one half hour are usually more subtle but can be substantial. Much depends on the nature of the particular group. Contact us to discuss what would be most beneficial for your group.

Workshops

In Singing Medicine workshops we combine singing with our other areas of expertise (Craniosacral, coaching, expressive arts, enlightenment) to design an environment that creates opportunities for major life shifts, awakenings, and discoveries that are fully embodied. These events are only for those dedicated to personal awakening. Workshops take an entire day. It is also recommended that participants give themselves a day of rest after Singing Medicine workshops in order to integrate the experience. Contact us if you are interested in participating.
