I avsnitt 125 möter du författaren, poeten och scenkonstnären Louise Halvardsson, som var med i podden första gången för sju år sedan. Vi pratar bland annat om att fastna i en förverkligad dröm, om att byta yrkesidentitet, om att lämna storstaden för gemenskap och naturnärhet på landsbygden, om att uppleva närvaron i nuet på en bänk i Berlin, om att möta högstadieelever genom poesi och om punkens energi som en rosa tråd genom livet. Och så förstås om hennes senaste projekt, föreställningen ”Koreograferade mormorsdikter”, som bygger på en diktsamling Louise skrivit om den komplicerade relationen till sin döda mormor.

125. Punkenergi och närvaroträning. Vad händer nu, Louise Halvardsson?

I hope this melody will lift you up if you are experiencing dark moments in your life situation. 
I trust that music has the power to heal and ignite a positive energy inside of all of us, it surely has done so for me, writing and playing music is helping me feel better when going through something challenging, I believe any sort of joyful creativity has the force to help us overcome obstacles in a smooth way.

🎼 Lyrics

Passed out on the bathroom floor
it happened again
Puked my guts up
I don’t know what to say
I know that I’m doing myself wrong
Tried to stay sane and to be strong 

Shadows hanging over me
And a veil over my head
I obscured the truth within
With a large bottle of gin

Woke up to a new day
forgot what went on yesterday
Can I do something ‘bout it? 
Slipped right out of my memory
Crying silently
I keep my mouth shut
Worried that it might hurt you, 
This open cut

I’m conditioned by my past
And these patterns seem to last
Spoke my truth, an ugly scene
Inner angel intervene

After a long friendship with Richard Bona and a desire to collaborate with him in some way, I finally came up with a fun idea, I wrote a Swedish text for the song "Good Times" that he released together with soul singer Frank McComb. I called both Frank and Richard and got their approval to record the song with Swedish lyrics, me, my brother Adam and Erik Bodin met at the Klangverket studio in Göteborg with Emil Aspegren who recorded the song. The song is about being grateful for being alive, but also about striving to be a free soul.

Mermaid Cathedral Guided Meditation - Transforming journey for neurodivergent mix

Nadja is a Singer/Songwriter, Producer and Multi Artist based in Gothenburg Sweden. She creates music that captures the essence of nature in collision with the concrete sights, surrounding the environment in her everyday life, near the harbors of Gothenburg City.

After ten years being an artist in different constelations, and her solo debute ”Songs From the Woods of Inner Mind” 2015,
2020 was the year she elongated her music and soundscapes into audiovisual work - exploring the psychological aspects of her own relations, childhood trauma, High Sensitivity and Sobriety - with fable themes. 

Flavored with intense psychedelic humouristic multiverses with a social realistic twist. Nadja creates a live experience that is hard not to get moved by.

Her mind seems to naturally co-exist inbetween the universe, and a cup of freshly brewn coffee - wich she has to microwave many times a day - due to her forgetfullness of it’s and other earthly matters existence.
