Boundary Calls

August 24, 2016 / Celia Bockhoff

A key aspect to vocal recovery is establishing a safe, secure place from which to express oneself. The second ‘note’ of 7 Notes to Freedom  – a step by step path to vocal reclamation – is called Boundary Calls. Many among us have experienced the trauma or hurt of having our unique voices (core expressions […]

52 Card Pickup

June 27, 2016 / Celia Bockhoff

I have been moving through a transition these past few weeks, and perhaps I am not alone. So much seems to be in flux these days in the world, and I hear uncertainty and fear voiced by many in daily conversations with friends and clients. My own transition has been a very positive one: I […]

What Rory Told Me.

December 13, 2015 / Celia Bockhoff

Many many years ago I had a dream. The details of the dream have faded, but one scene remains clear. I encountered a wise woman, in the form of blues guitarist/singer Rory Block. (The unconscious mind is a creative genius!) I asked Rory what I should do with my life. “Why am I here?” She laughed, and […]

Silenced Maidens and Vocal Presence

September 27, 2015 / Celia Bockhoff

I have become more and more aware lately of the interface between presence and voice. How one goes with the other. How vocal expression has the potential to be the embodiment of a self that is fully present. How silence (when not present organically in a relaxed state of well being) can represent living evidence of […]

Plan A and Plan B

October 1, 2014 / Celia Bockhoff

I made a promise to my client yesterday. I rarely do that, because it is very tricky to promise someone, especially a client, an absolute in a world that in a world that is stubbornly and perennially relative. I promised her that I would not abandon myself. And then I amended it. “I promise you […]

The Singing Bowl

July 20, 2013 / Celia Bockhoff

I have a beautiful big crystal singing bowl in my Boulder office. I often ring it… or let it tone… as a way to center with clients in session. Sometimes we tone along with it, in harmony. I love this bowl, and am coveting many more. They are costly, but oh so restorative and sweet. […]

Grace in Action

April 9, 2013 / Celia Bockhoff

Dedicated to Patricia Monaghan, 1946 – 2012 Every spring I think of Patricia Monaghan. She passed away just this past November (see Wikipedia), leaving us without her divinely inspired presence, but gifting us with the brilliance of her exquisite words. Monaghan was a teacher and a seer; she brought us the gifts of goddess wisdom […]

Beyond Ideas

November 17, 2012 / Celia Bockhoff

Yesterday was the second session of four in an ‘adventure series’ I began called “The Essential Voice Experiment,” or “EVE.”  A small group of women have joined me on this adventure, brave souls embarking onto unknown waters of creative expression and voice. (And incidentally, I am just starting to use that word “adventure” in this […]

What We Call and What Calls Us.

November 9, 2012 / Celia Bockhoff

I often contemplate the process and the steps involved with creative expression. It has always felt to me that creativity is nurtured when we make a specific time and a space for it to happen.  But that clearing looks different for each of us. Creativity is a funny thing. It does not really adhere to […]
