Since then, Jonathan has put his intention and focus into the exploration of the healing potential of music and has given talks and workshops on vibrational sound therapy at TedX, national spiritual living conference and more. His vibrational sound therapy tracks, can be streamed on Spotify, Pandora, SoundCloud, YouTube and the InsightTimer app. They are also used by Golds Gym nationally in Centergy and yoga classes.  He continues to explore ways in which sound as therapy can to help people to relax, de-stress, enjoy deeper meditations and feel great.
