Instrumental Music
for Massage and Energy Work

Sound and Energetic Alchemy to Wake Up, Balance, and Re-Align Your Whole Self
Instrumental music has a greater amount of flexibility contained in its structure and use of moods and intentional changes. Without a voice as the focal point telling the story it is telling, instrumental music is free to wander. The story it tells is based on the response of the listener. There is no directive guidance per se. It lets the listener wander. Sure there is rhythm and melody and key and chordal structure, but the composer is free to experiement with all of the above as well as the texture. Instrumentation can be more creative without the vocal taking up the space.

In creating my instrumentals through the years I have followed the same chakra based principles with which I write my vocal songs and intentional music. I like to brainstorm ethereal and new agey titles that reflect a conscious human living fully in the multi-dimensional soup. The title may point to a chakra. The chakra may invite a feel and a rhythm. That feel gives birth to the melody. The ornamentation is based on inspiration and the extensive palette of sounds available via the many synthesizers, both real and virtual.

The instrumental often takes longer and it may be a challenge to know when it is "finished". I love it when I am moved by a sound into a musical realm.

All of these creations can support meditation and guided journeying. Rhythmic, up-tempo songs can be just as meditative as a slow moving many mood composition. Much depends on my intention behind the creation as that energetic is infused in the playing and recording. The invitation is to use each as a vehicle to cleanse, clear, and align your frequency signature in real time. As you allow that you will develop a new relationship with sound and its capacity to dance with your cellular self.

Follow the links for each song and see which speak to you in 30 seconds. Then purchase those songs and make a compilation. Or simply trust your impulse to download or get the CD for any of the current six titles available thus far.
Instrumental music, without words, can engulf you in a wash of sound and vibration. Depending on the key of the song it can impact specific chakras to assist in clearing and rebalancing. Songs in a major key will bring you outward, putting thoughts and feelings and intentions into action. Use them as catalysts for putting thoughts  and decisions into action. A variety of styles and instrumentation will provide you with a wide palette of music to serve your body, emotions, mind, and spirit. All keys are served, so, with an awareness of the key notes of each chakra, you can use a specific song to stimulate and energize that particular energy center.

Instrumental music, without words, can engulf you in a wash of sound and vibration. Depending on the key of the song it can impact specific chakras to assist in clearing and rebalancing. Songs in a minor key will pull you inward to allow a personal relationship with the moving energies. Use them to assist you in releasing energies that are moving, stimulated by the moments of living. A variety of styles and instrumentation will provide you with a wide palette of music to serve your body, emotions, mind, and spirit.

Divine hands were at work in creating this CD. A friend who was going through a surgery wanted higher frequency music to support her healing. She called upon a doctor friend of hers who was also a psychologist and had done work with the music business. This friend reluctantly listened to the “New Agey Music” to put them in a sequence. The more she listened the more she connected until a story, a journey, began to take shape. She wrote down the elements of the story as vignettes, suggestions, a mind set for the listener. She then took it to a Northwest hospital where she convinced an associate in the therapeutic pool to use it. Some amazing things happened… vibrational healings and openings occurred consistently. This Cd can support you in a myriad of ways. It is predominantly instrumental

Down the Road

Over a period of a year, I created instrumental songs on my vast array of analog and digital synthesizers. My intention was to create songs for all of the 12 musical keys as I was just beginning to discover the use of music as a healing tool. Each creation is a musical flavor and evocative journey. I paired each song with a descriptive mindset so that each could be listened to with an inner intention, like a short guided journey. Use it when you need a diversion from your own forms of living. Play them in the background to allow the changing keys and major, minor structures cleanse your energy bodies. Let the music serve you in deep ways that are working cellularly to cleanse and amplify your deep, inner well-being.

Movement is a powerful and necessary remedy for sluggish energy. When the chakras feel clogged or blocked then one needs to get up and improvise. Here is a special set of 9 rhythms designed for each of the 7 in body chakras as well as the Earth Star below the feet and the Soul Star above the head. Choose one and, while focusing on the particular chakra, allow yourself to start moving. There are no right steps here. Follow your impulse. Do off the wall randomness…with one arm doing this and the other doing that.for your body, mind, and spirit. Select the one you need or experience them one by one in a sequence that brings you back to the frequency of you, uninterrupted.
