Elevating the human experience through music
Elevating the human experience through music
The songs begin with a feeling, an intuition and often an urgency that calls me to listen. At times, it's a tone or a sound calling to me. Other times, words or specific starting chords are delivered. After we've had a chance to connect and I have a deeper understanding of where to begin, and when the time is right, I sit down at the keys and let the music and words flow through. Once I have a sense the composition is where it needs to be, I record it. I then listen thoroughly so I can transcribe the lyrics and affirmations to be used for your continued upliftment and assistance. All songs are a collaborative effort between you and I and all the guides available to assist. Love and respect are at the heart of all these co-creations and often, the more you listen to the music and feel the energy, the more benefits you can receive.
Prior to Soul Songs coming to be, there were a series of "stream of consciousness" music videos, motivated and inspired by profound loss. My personal loss came in the early stages of the pandemic, so while the entire world was grieving and feeling a multitude of confusing emotions, I was navigating the greatest loss of my life. All my years of personal growth programs, meditation and healing modalities couldn't begin to touch the pain I was feeling, until one day I sat down at my keyboard and started playing and singing whatever felt like pouring out. Every time I sat down, I had no idea what was going to come out, and every time, no matter how challenged I was emotionally, by the time I finished playing, I was feeling completely altered, in a profoundly peaceful way. This became a daily practice and often, I had no idea what I was feeling but, by the time I got into the piece, it was very clear what I was feeling. I was constantly astonished at the flow of words and music and phrases. My intuition started becoming both louder and softer and there was a sense of urgency and partnership with both my body and soul. I was being guided to play specific chords and sounds to assist in my personal growth and healing. There were times I was in great disagreement and discomfort over the chords "suggested" however, I chose to try them just the same. The result of playing a very physically uncomfortable chord or series of them allowed me to express the most uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. Things I was afraid to admit to myself. Now, with this deeper level of trust, I was able to create more space, more peace within the pain. One day I decided to hit the record button and it became an homage to my beloved. The first of many to come.
One of the ways these songs can impact you is by giving you a wholly unique experience designed to meet you where you are. From this place, your own private universe opens up. One that is loving, honoring, supportive, creative and guided. With your openness, willingness and cooperation, magical things can and do happen. You begin in one place emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually and can be transported into an entirely different plane.
While you will still receive the benefits of the energies flowing through your songs without them, headphones allow you have a more fully immersive experience. Your brain and body are absorbing the tones, frequencies and energies more effortlessly, allowing for a much deeper connection to what is being offered. And of course, the more you listen, the greater the benefit.
The therapeutic benefits of singing and humming are numerous. The vibration alone is incredibly soothing for your body and soul. And if you are so inclined to sing your own song after it's been recorded, the benefits can be even greater. However, if your preference is to simply listen, you will still be receiving an abundance of loving and transformative energy.
