Chanting for Peace in the Middle East: Can Sound Healing Help?
I attended a memorial for the victims of the October 7 Hamas attack last night, and it was REALLY good to be with community and feel the ripples of pain and prayers and hope for peace.
It’s easy to become numb and overwhelmed by the staggering numbers and each human being’s story is so… human. Shutting down is an evolutionary efficiency mechanism to enable us to survive, and I forgive myself that luxury sometimes.*

Dark Chocolate Brownie Recipe for Singer's Vocal Health
Melt in your mouth fudgy brownies that are dairy-free, sugar-free (almost) & gluten -free & oil-free!
If you know me, you know I love to bake!
I am mostly plant-based, gluten free, and I don’t like to eat very much sugar or dairy because I try to keep inflammation down.
