She walks in the waves, 
I try to find a way, 
To follow behind... 
But with a stormy mind, 
I'm easily lost at sea. 

I hear her, I hear her
Calling out to me
Asking me to release 
All the fear that I keep . . . 

When will you let go? 
When will you let go? 

When will you let go . . .

Two years ago while traveling through India I tried my hand at producing. With Garage Band on my cracked Ipad, a shitty headphone mic and a heart full of melodies, I gave myself to the music. Playing around for hours to pass long train rides through the heat of the most beautiful country I know. India is forever infused in my heart, and this music is a seed of what was felt there. 
I hope to create more soon!! 
Nesting at home in Canada
Finding yet again the choice point...

What does it take to release the fear, and give myself to the sound. 
Mama music, asks again for my devotion, presence, patience and care. 
So here I am, letting go of ancient seeds, freeing up space inside for more life to pour through.

Perfection-Acoustic

This is an original song recorded live, played through a Boss RC-505 looping pedal. 

It speaks to the medicine of love... All the lessons that make us stronger. That fire that purifies, refining our capacity to hold, pain and beauty, joy and sorrow. The dance becoming more balanced, gratitude at every step...
Within, you will hear a part of a medicine song to the Goddess Oshun. She is said to be the unseen mother present at every gathering, and with this chant she initiates us into the depth of Love. 

My lyrics : 
This heart... 
This heart is stronger then I'd ever know (x3)
This heart is stronger, each day that I practice letting go... 
Of all the fear that tries to steal my breath away, 
And leave this body aching in the pain, 
Of separation, this illusion looks the same,
As moving forward with the dawn of a new day...

Ide Were Were Nita Ochun  (Yuruba medicine song)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am a part of you, as you are a part of me
And no one is to blame
You are a part of me, as I am a part of you
And we open loves gates
I am a part of you, as you are a part of me, 
And the connection remains... 
I am a part of you, as you are a part of me
Though it all must change 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Stronger

May we all awaken
Out of the dream of Maya
To our timeless perfection
In Truth

The Way of Freedom
