What We Do in Harmony Healing
The 5 main activities that help us improve mental health through music:
1. Meaningful Music: We find songs that mean something to you and talk about how you relate to the music and lyrics. Use song lyrics as a guide to learn more about yourself, feel validated, and express thoughts and feelings that are hard to name.
2. Guided songwriting and poetry: As a professional songwriter, I walk you through the creative process of writing song lyrics. Then I guide you through writing music or poetry of your own, which helps you become more self-aware and better at expressing yourself.
3. Mind-Body Awareness: Music is a mind-body empowerment experience which involves physical and mental actions. So we practice mind-body awareness exercises such as deep breathing, somatic healing, posture, coordination, and moving to music, which also builds body confidence!
4. Discover Your VOICE: The basics of vocal technique help anyone become a more confident communicator, even if you don’t plan to become a singer. Great for singers, actors, public speakers, and anyone who gets anxiety about talking to other people. Use your voice with confidence in any situation!
5. Find your SPARK: Once we build a foundation, we discover what instrument, singing, and style of music makes the best outlet to support your mental well-being. You will learn to play/sing your favorite songs with confidence.
These 5 activities flow in an ONGOING CYCLE so you can always thrive with music in your life!
Instructor Lilia: Blending Passion & Expertise
Hi, I’m Lilia Bogoeva, and I will be teaching your Harmony Healing sessions!
I am an expert at blending elements of music therapy and body awareness with the songs you love! I got into music because it helped me work through my own experiences of chronic stress, anxiety, body image issues, and major depression. So I’m on a mission to share the healing power of music with the world!
I have a university degree from California Institute of the Arts, and I am certified as a trauma-informed emotional healing coach from the Aura Institute, where I learned from some of the best somatic therapists in the USA about holistic approaches to mental health.
That is why I’m great at collaborating with other professionals to understand exactly how music can help you thrive. Since 2011, I’ve helped neurodiverse children and adults learn music, dance, theater, and creative writing. My favorite part is helping students build confidence in all areas of life!
How it Works
- We deliver more than just “sessions.” You will get a monthly program where every month we designate a certain goal that we accomplish by meeting every week, and staying engaged with fun “homework” assignments.
- This is great supplement to your mental wellness plan, but we don’t necessarily intend for it to replace clinical therapy altogether.
- What’s Included:
– Weekly sessions in 45, 60, or 90 minute blocks (meaning you can choose your session length according to budget and schedule)
– Homework assignments + email support, where you can ask questions during the week.
– Goal setter and progress tracker
– Your instructor will also take time to research your condition and collaborate with your primary mental health professional (if applicable). - RATES: A sliding scale depending on your needs, session length, and whether you get a monthly coaching plan or single sessions. We offer a FREE consultation to get to know each other and create the ideal music therapy plan for you or your child.
