The Music as Medicine Retreat

I host an annual music retreat in the tranquil piney woods of east Texas. It’s not a performance event as much as a participatory one, although the ability to “play an instrument” is absolutely not a requirement! The retreat centers around the concept of intuitive music-making that is so integral to my own soundwork. While I offer some degree of facilitation my experience has been that each participant brings their own spark, whether they are playing an instrument that took them years to master, shaking a rattle, or simply sitting with us in process.

We come together in an intimate setting which has hosted deep spiritual work for almost 40 years, and build conscious community in a space where it is safe to be vulnerable and let sound and music evoke whatever needs to emerge. We share deep ceremonial work as well as nourishing food and laughter, letting the music weave itself as intuition and connection dictate.

The retreat typically occurs around February, and the 2020 event is currently being planned. If you would like to be notified when the next retreat is available, please get in touch below and connect with me on Facebook or Instagram.
