Whenever I feel like I'm not quite sure what I need to do next OR am feeling overwhelmed, I find the peace and clarity I need when I take myself out of what is familiar.
I consider all of this pretty natural. It’s easy to fall into a routine when we are in a familiar space. We fall into a comfortable rhythm. It’s safe. The same words. The same thoughts. The same food. The same people. The same movement. When we do something over and over it becomes a habit and we begin to make unconscious actions. Those actions can sometimes lead to a feeling of “stuck” for me. Have you experienced that?
Taking myself out of my “everyday” disrupts those rhythms and patterns. It introduces me to a different conversation and awarenesses that supports me in finding clarity and focus in my next steps. Sometimes that’s through a road trip. Sometimes it’s by making the conscious decision to do something differently.
But, I didn't always have this level of self awareness. Sound Healing has helped me build this awareness. I use Sound as the vehicle to get me to Stillness.
It is within Stillness, we find awareness and clarity that we can then use to Empower ourselves to make the change we want to see in our lives, and there is so much peace that comes from it. The more you practice Stillness, the easier it is to get there.
I have so many opportunities for you to join me this month. Ive noticed that my facilitation has shifted. I’m starting to use my voice more and it feels like my drums have come alive! Your energy is asking for something different and I am answering the call. I can tell that many of you are starting to find your voice. I hear you.
Choose to do something you haven’t done before, or maybe just a little out of routine. Witness the mind and body align to find peace and clarity.

The crowdfunding page has launched (link in bio!) people are sharing it! People are donating! And I am beyond grateful! Thank you for believing in me and this project. It's.. just incredible. There is still so much do but it's like I have found some secret well of energy and happiness that just keeps me moving forward. If you have not experienced a sound bath or the therapeutic power of sound in this way, this month I have events in a few cities for you to check it out and experience it for yourself. If you are in Atlanta I have one tonight!
39 more days of the campaign to go! I look forward to hugging it out with you soon!
