Private Sessions

One-on-one sessions with Jonah

In person or worldwide via Zoom. You bring what you're carrying. We'll sit together and let the rest do its work.

What actually happens in a session is simpler than people often expect — and harder to explain than almost anything else Jonah does. His essential function is to help remove the blocks to awareness of our deepest being and live from the peace that pours forth. You are warmly invited towards this.

The session proceeds depending entirely on the needs of the individual who has come. Jonah is likely to invite you to take a few deep breaths together and sit with you in stillness. He may ask if it's okay to place his hand on your head.

What unfolds is not so much the application of a technique. It is merely a setting down, for a moment, of the egoic frame of reference that separates — and a recognition of the underlying wholeness innate to all being. Some form of this awareness can arise within you, in a way that is accessible to you, and is frequently very healing. Sometimes healing is manifested outwardly, and sometimes — always, actually — inwardly at the level of perception, because perception is where suffering actually lives.

This is the heart of what Jonah calls Healing By Divine Principle.

In that stillness, intuitive information often arises — and this, together with whatever questions the seeker has brought, frequently opens into a longer conversation that becomes a meaningful part of the journey. Much of Jonah's own path was built on the recognition that Truth is what sets us free, and that self-inquiry in many forms can lead there. That often features prominently in his work with others.

People arrive by many roads. Some carry physical conditions that haven't responded to anything else. Some are navigating grief, illness, or a life that has broken wide open. Some are long-time meditators who sense they're close to something they can't quite reach alone. Some simply feel a pull toward this and can't explain it — which is, in its own way, the clearest sign.

All are welcome. There is no required background or belief. The only invitation is to come as you are.

Wherever Jonah Travels

In Person

90 minutes

Jonah works with people in person wherever he finds himself — Seattle, D.C., New York, and beyond. You sit or lie down comfortably. There is often little talking — mostly a shared stillness in which Jonah works gently with the field of awareness around and within you.

In-person sessions are available by arrangement.

Worldwide

Via Zoom

90 minutes

Remote sessions via Zoom are just as effective as in-person work. The field of awareness is not limited by physical distance. Many people who have experienced both report no difference in depth or quality.

Zoom sessions are available globally.

"There is a deeper ground of awareness in you that has never suffered. That is where we meet."

Jonah

What tends to shift

Sessions are different for every person. Jonah doesn't prescribe what will happen — but across many years of working with people, a few patterns have emerged.

Physical shifts

These happen in roughly a third of sessions, and sometimes dramatically. Irregular heartbeats have normalized. Chronic nerve pain has dissolved. Migraines that had persisted for years have disappeared. Jonah doesn't claim to cause this, and makes no promises about it. What he observes is that when the mind's relationship to a condition changes — when some block to perceiving it clearly is removed — the condition sometimes changes with it.

Psycho-spiritual shifts

These happen to some degree in virtually everyone — sometimes subtle, sometimes profound. Something that was being carried quietly gets put down. A perspective that seemed fixed turns out not to be. Jonah understands every shift — including the overtly physical ones — as, at root, psycho-spiritual. Our experience of everything, including our bodies, flows through the mind.

Deep peace

This is the most common result of all, and perhaps the hardest to describe without underselling it. It isn't relaxation. It is a quality of quietude that settles at an unusual depth, in which nothing feels wrong — even if the circumstances that brought someone here are completely unchanged. Many people report that they have simply never been that quiet before.

Not every session is dramatic. Sometimes the work is very quiet. Sometimes the effects become apparent only in the days following — a lightness, a shift in perspective, something that was heavy feeling less so.

In their own words

"When Jonah touched my head there was a sense of expansion. Instead of a "little self" with a small center and a border around it — the border exploded and the little center expanded, filling in everything, all around. There was a sense of everything rather than the usual, small sense of self. The expansion was in all directions, followed by the most vivid quietude."

"When you put your hand on my head, it felt like the neurons were being re-wired. It was pleasant and also somehow intensely quiet — like a surge of gentle energy was coursing through in tremendous volume. The following week was extraordinary. I have been overwhelmingly grateful for this experience ever since."

FAQ

No. The only requirement is willingness — to sit still, to be open, and to see what arises. Many people who come to Jonah are skeptics. That is perfectly welcome. Skepticism does not close the door to direct experience.

Sessions are quiet and unhurried. Jonah will sit with you in stillness. He may ask a few questions at the beginning. He may offer a word or inquiry during the session. Most of the work happens in the silence. People report sensations of warmth or tingling, deep peace, a sense of being held, unexpected emotions, inner visions, or simply a quieting of the mind.

There is no prescribed number. Some people come once and find it complete. Others return regularly over months or years. Jonah does not create dependency — his aim is to help you recognize something in yourself that you do not need him to access.

No. This is not therapy, counseling, or any form of medical treatment. Jonah does not diagnose, treat, or advise on physical or mental health conditions. If you are working with a therapist or doctor, please continue that work alongside this.

Yes. Zoom sessions are available to anyone, anywhere in the world. The quality of the work is not affected by distance.

Nothing elaborate. Come as you are. You might find a quiet place where you won't be interrupted. Wear comfortable clothing. It can help to arrive a few minutes early and take a few slow breaths. But there is no preparation that is necessary.

That is fine. Not every session is dramatic. Sometimes the work is very subtle. Sometimes the effects become apparent only in the days following a session — a quietness, a shift in perspective, something that was heavy feeling lighter.
