John's work with SpiritQuest retreats involves the use of sound healing and ceremony to open a doorway to "awakened dreaming," an altered state of time and space. Having worked with sound for over 15 years and by using a variety of healing instruments (which include his personally handcrafted flutes & didgeridoos, Tibetan singing bowls, bells, drums and many other healing tools) John is able to tune into the heartbeat of Pachamama (Mother Earth). Guests are invited to travel her oceans, deserts, jungles, and skies awakening their primordial essence. John also leads many shamanic sessions such as Medicine Wheel, Shamanic Journey, and astrology.
