We are a network of practitioners and teachers offering services in the healing arts,

We host a variety of private therapeutic services, groups, classes, workshops and more, in support of cultivating a healthier and more fulfilled person and community. Ian Wilkerson, founder and CEO of Bay Area Music Therapy LLC, decided to establish the Center for Healing and Expression in honor of his late mother, Michele Newmark, a Reichian Therapist, nutritionist, and healer, who passed away in April of 2016. Michele owned and operated a former Center for Healing and Expression in San Francisco, CA, for many years. Ian and his mother had dreamed about opening a new location that combined their work with other allied providers. With the help of Ian’s wife and business partner, Shelley Tsao, the Center for Healing and Expression has gone global, moving their main offices to Meridian, Idaho, and launching a global campaign to help others virtually via Telehealth Sessions. The Center for Healing and Expression’s logo was designed by Ian’s sister-in-law, Yu Tsao. The hummingbird symbolizes the legacy Michele Newmark has left behind and this new Treasure Valley presence will build more community in her spirit and loving embrace. The hummingbird reminds us to forever seek out the good in life and the beauty in each day. It is a reminder of how we expend our own energy, to be more present and playful, resilient and adaptable, to hold on to a lightness of being and enjoyment of life. The Center for Healing and Expression is currently accepting new clients, and is also looking to grow the centers global virtual community of allied professionals.

🐾 Happy National Dog Day!
DId you know animals respond to music in their own unique ways — some become calm with soft melodies, others perk up at lively rhythms. Shelters even use music to help reduce anxiety in dogs and cats. It’s a beautiful reminder that music is universal, spanning species and language. Does your pet have a favorite song?

🔔 Sound Bowls
The vibration of a sound bowl isn’t just heard — it’s felt. The resonant tones can help calm the nervous system, deepen relaxation, and support meditation or breathwork. As the sound waves move through the body, many people experience grounding, clarity, or emotional release. Have you ever tried a sound bowl session?

💃 Dancing
Movement is medicine. Dance doesn’t need choreography — just let your body follow the rhythm of your breath or your favorite song. Even a 30-second wiggle can shift mood and energy. When was the last time you let yourself move freely?

"📚 Music for Focus & Productivity
The right background music can sharpen focus, support creativity, and make tasks more enjoyable. Many people find steady rhythms, lo-fi beats, or instrumental tracks helpful for study or work time. Next time you settle in to concentrate, try playing music that keeps you gently engaged rather than distracted. What do you listen to when you need to lock in?"

❤️ Heartbeat Syncing to Rhythm
Our heartbeat naturally responds to music... slowing with calm melodies or speeding up with fast tempos. When rhythm and breath align, the body can move more efficiently, boosting physical performance during exercise or dance. Music literally moves us from the inside out.

What rhythm makes your heart come alive?
