New Hampshire native, with many years of experience in the music and entertainment industries. Jeff's been the lead singer and guitarists for several Classic Rock bands as well as performing solo during his career. Over the years he's played hundreds of venues large and small, appeared at shows with many notable artists and at several prestigious Songwriter Festivals/Events, most held by invitation only. In the world of music, he's quite well known and respected for his work, an extensive knowledge of industry ins and outs and willingness to be helpful to those less experienced. Music has been one constant throughout his life that has brought him happiness, many friends and at times a lifesaver. Indie Music Reviews Published The Following After Discovering One Of Jeff's Songs Was #1 In The U.S. On NumberOneMusic's "Classic Rock" Chart For 14 Consecutive Weeks, Early In 2016:

Jeff Hayford is a singer, a songwriter, and producer who has played venues large and small and at events with many notable artists. He brings realness to music. “Bad Attitude” is a well-crafted song that is accompanied by Jeff’s singer/songwriter ways. He captures the artistry of songwriting and makes things go well from the start. He does the same thing with “Hear Him Sing.” If you like artists like John Mellencamp, then you’d like this softer side of Hayford’s music. “Bounce Back” picks it all up for the whole lot. If you’re into Petty and Hiatt, check out Jeff Hayford.

At the age of 19, Jeff was very nearly killed while on a motorcycle by a careless driver making an illegal left turn. The collision left him with permanent serious physical difficulties and drastically changed his view of life and world events. He had what's referred to as a Near Death Experience at the scene which, among other things, later instilled a need within himself to feel worthy of miraculously surviving, his "second chance" and to be beneficial to others for the remainder of his second life. How to effectively fulfill this inner need became a consuming challenge.

Artist John Sloan is credited as saying, “Though a living cannot be made at art, art makes life worth living.” Remembering triggered other memories from the blurry months of 1984 that followed the accident. This was the time when Jeff first begun to feel a new inner purpose. While doing some volunteer work, he had suggested including holding a "Battle Of The Bands" show with proceeds going to a humanitarian causes. There was too much to do to make it happen, however, a seed was planted, one that nearly took root as the idea was discussed with his philosophy professor and a business development post graduate student. A non-profit business model was discussed often, with others joining in. It started off when Jeff pointed out the obvious flaw in John Sloan's statement - while Farm Aid helps communities and farmers it does nothing to help others in the music business when it really could. How many great artists could have been discovered if they had them open the shows?

Over the years that followed, Jeff continued to search for ways to fulfill the inner need that only grew stronger with time. He performed at and organized many small scale local musical benefit events, yet it never seemed to be enough. In the mid 90's in part following medical advice he and his wife moved to Florida. Where more tragic, painful events, came into his life. He had spent several years trying to help his father who after years of being a dynamo, self made success had become severely clinically depressed and gone from rags to riches to rags. Ultimately taking his own life after years of talking about it. With the sting of that still fresh he also went through a divorce and fell into a very dark time, far from being able to fulfill his inner need to be of service to others, struggling to help himself.

At a loss of where to turn, how to find happiness or what to do, music provided the answer. A friend back in New Hampshire, who was also one of his favorite songwriters released his first solo CD and quite by chance a copy of it came to his desk. The title cut "Through Your Own Backyard" hit him like the answer to a prayer, which it probably was he's been known to say. I can never thank you enough my friend for bringing me back to where I belong. Although at one event I introduced the writer (you know who) and said that, to which he took to the mic "Now I'm trying to write one to get him the hell out of here." Thankfully he hasn't yet.

Not long after his return to NH, Jeff brought his thoughts together, founding A4H(tm) "Arts4Humanity." In May of 2016 after meeting the women of his life which he refers to her as Angel he began working on his future goals, hope and dreams. Presently many of these hopes have come to fruition and his dreams are never too far from his goals. Jeff Hayford is an exceptional multi-talented and highly gifted artist. Throughout his life he has suffered through many triels and tribulations some of which many of us will never experience in a lifetime that being said his thirst for life is exceptional and greets each and every new day as a precious gift. He is the most extraordinary example of inspiration to humanity...

Archangel Holistic Readings

Archangel Readings

Celtic Cross Spread

I would like to begin by welcoming you.

It all began when I was a very little girl and had two imaginary friends. My late mother would tell me I would play in my room and serve tea with my tiny tea set to my two friends for hours. Not old enough to talk in complete sentences I would have a conversation with them using my own language to communicate. My mother never discouraged this playtime as she felt this was my own unique way of expressing myself. During my childhood I had a vivid imagination and loved Art and Ballet classes. It was in the third grade that the home room teacher told my parents I was different. She felt I was highly creative and this was the area most natural and strongly pronounced in my character & personality.

During my teenage years Astrology amazed me. At fifteen I decided to take a Summer class at Mass College of art in Boston on The Science of Astrology. I enjoy Astrology and on occasion, still prepare Solar Charts for my family and friends.

After high school I did attend a Fine Art college and received a BA in Graphic Design and Illustration.

My ability to use my intuition began when I awakened to the power of reason. I may have not known how to use this gift however when I felt something strongly I would simply say it without holding back as if it were a warning. Once I reached my early twenties intuition and clairvoyance were developing through my five senses. These senses would spark a moment of clarity and I would intuitively know. This reaction or abrupt verbal action would rub people the wrong way and they would often say you think you know it all. This was difficult for me emotionally my feelings would often be hurt and it was hard to convince people until they themselves later experienced the very issue I felt compelled to warn them about before it happened.

I did not know where this cautious energy was coming from. I thought it was careful awareness of my inner nature. Over the years I used to see Astrologers and Psychics and enjoyed their readings, much of what they told me came true. A dear friend of mine bought me Archangel cards along with Doreen Virtue’s “Archangels & Ascended Masters” book for Christmas in 2003. I asked her why she bought these cards for me and she said “learn to use them and you’ll know why.” After reading the book and working with these cards I realized she saw something in me I was not fully aware of. When I became comfortable and successful using this Medium for healing purposes I continued reading for family and close friends in 2005.

Astrology was always remained a strong influence that being said, mixing this with intuition and clairvoyance something magical happens. The first inkling I experienced of a powerful force that was beyond my inner nature was in the Spring of 2008. Barack Obama was on the scene and his running mate was Joe Biden. There was a burning desire to bring out my Ephermeris book and look up the Solar Charts of Barack, Michelle and Joe Biden. After three hours of research, a final outcome and clarity I closed the book and gazed out of the living room window at the majestic White Mountains of New Hampshire. I knew at that moment Barack Obama was going to become President and serve two terms. His wife Michelle was his true soul mate and would play an enormous part in his life as President as well as her own claim to fame as First Lady. The bewildering aspect was Joe Biden as he also showed strong leadership qualities on the same level as Barack and would be in the position to lead this country. I became nervous and felt that if God forbid something should happen to Barack, Biden would take over. I feared for his life being the first Black American President of the United States. President Obama did indeed win and serve two terms and Biden is now President Elect...

The second time was an epiphany that changed my life forever. In late September of 2009 I experienced an unidentified linear and waves entity that took a graphic form from white to black. This entity entered a professional dance studio that my girlfriend as well as myself strongly felt and chose to linger there for a few minutes. Minutes after this incredible and unforgettable episode I’ve never been the same. It propelled me to create the first of its kind fourteen storyboard illustrations title: The Michael Jackson Series” and a year later authored my first nonfiction book title: The Untold Stories Behind “The Michael Jackson Series.”

Between 2009 -2014 my spirituality strongly emerged I realized that this gift was not just my intuitive nature, but that I was intuitively guided by a higher source, vibration, or level of Divine souls that dwell closest to whatever God you believed in. We all worship different Gods however, no mater what religion you practice these beings of pure light and love exist on a realm closest to God. These Divine souls have come to be known as Archangels and this is the source of where my energy came from, their messages flowed through me and that is why I use this particular Medium to read.

My purpose on Earth has always been to protect, share, inform and inspire others. As a humanitarian, activist and advocate my mission has been of service to humanity. They say when using your creativity is when your closest to God however, with me, it is also feeling and interpreting the guidance and messages from these higher souls. It’s as if I’ve known them somehow - all of them - their guidance heals me and allows me to help others...

My process of Archangel Holistic Readings.

When beginning an Archangel reading there is a process that the client must perform before the reading starts.  If the client is physically present there are few steps the client must perform before the reading starts.  It is essential the client transfers his or her energy into the cards for the reading to be authentically theirs.

Let’s begin the process.  The client has called upon me for a reason.  There are issues or situations going on in their lives that need decisions made, direction, final outcomes, clarity and healing.  Their energies have to transport into the cards with their intentions as they are no longer my cards but the clients. 1) The first process is the shuffling of the cards. If the client is present they shuffle if not I shuffle however what remains the same is the client is going over every detail intention in their head that needs to be addressed. The cards are shuffled 7 times in a row however if the client wants the shuffle to be longer they can determine when to stop.  2) The second process is cutting the deck, this is done with the left hand from left to right in three piles then picked up from left to right as the deck becomes one.  3) The third process is the most important, 12 cards have to be selected out of the deck to set up the Celtic Cross Spread.  If the client is present they fan the cards so that the corner of each card in the deck are shown.  If the client is not present then I fan 6 cards and show the client, out of the 6 cards they pick 2 cards.  I do this 6 times with a total of 12 cards.  

In a Celtic Cross Spread layout there are 11 cards that are strategically placed on the table however the 12th card is the clarity card and placed crosswise over the remaining deck.

The charge for a 90 minute reading is $1.80 a minute totaling $162.00 a secession. There will be no extra charge for going over the 90 minutes.  To obtain clarity and healing at this point in the secession it is not measured by money but by time.  This is the true purpose and process of my readings. As a humanitarian and sensitive to the human condition I ensure that my clients are fulfilled, happy, content and at peace when they are finished with an Archangel Holistic reading.  Working with these high souls of light and love lets my clients know what group of Archangels they’ve chosen to work with and how these Divine Angels will help them get through the most difficult times with confidence, reassurance, love and positive enlightenment...
