Holiday Cheer

 

Shine Your Light

 

A Gift for You for Giving

Greetings & Gratitude

Dear Friends,

Oh, how we love this time of year! It gives us an opportunity to express our gratitude for your friendship over the years, and for sharing our MUSIC, our mini-book HEART WIDE OPEN, and our DVD, INVITATION TO SLUMBER, with your friends and family. Our work is all over the world now, and just the thought of that makes us smile.

We’re delighted to announce some BEAUTIFUL NEW PRODUCTS, just in time for the holidays! Patrick has been hard at the work he loves – photographing nature and creating fine art posters and prints, incorporating poetry/lyrics from Sandi’s songs. The result is more than a picture and a sentence – we’re told these prints evoke feelings of peace, joy, harmony, comfort, ease and love, just by looking at them!

POSTERS & PRINTS
There are 24 scenes to choose from – sunsets and woodlands, beaches and flowers, as seen through the magical lens of a true artist – and each poster or print can be tailored to your needs. They are available in a variety of sizes, and you can even get them printed on canvas and/or framed! The posters measure 36" X 23" and are printed on semi-gloss media suitable for framing. They are also available as smaller prints or greeting cards. They are perfect for hallways and lounges in healing centers, healthcare facilities, hospitals and hospices. (Of course, they look great in living rooms, bedrooms and offices too!)

Take a break from holiday preparations and enjoy 11-minutes of heaven in Ireland as you travel with us on a magical adventure through Ireland, tracing Patrick’s roots and discovering new parts of ourselves along the way. Patrick’s new YouTube video features highlights of our trip as seen by his photographer’s eye, with music by our dear friend and fiddler, Bobbi Nikles.

We hope your holiday preparations are fun and easy, and we wish you peace, joy and love this holiday season...and always!
Sandi & Patrick
 

Be At Peace

Lucky me! I had a lovely visit with my dear friend, songbird Lisa Jane Lipkin, just in time to record four new Music Blessings during her visit. They are gentle affirmations to nudge us back to this precious present moment.

During the recording session, I understood on a very deep level the true meaning of the words harmony and blessed.

The song is simple. Ah, sometimes things are easier said than done...

"Be at peace where you are...wherever you are."

To The Teachers

September all brings about the sighs that mark the end of summer. One yearly ritual involves new beginnings. A lovely short movie,  "The Heart of a Teacher" by Paula J. Fox, celebrates all of the teachers who shine light on the path. Many thanks...

Music As Medicine - Docs Use Tunes as Treatment

As my loyal readers know, I'm an advocate for the healing power of music. So I was delighted this morning to read an article on msnbc.com about the ways that physicians are now using music for surgery, recovery and rehab. I was especially thrilled that the article featured my dear friend and therapeutic harpist, Tami Briggs. I've witnessed Tami's music soothe agitated patients, help kids fall asleep and assist the stressed into a place of relaxation.

Music heals. End of story.

Health's Angel Tami Briggs Heals Hearts

One of my dearest friends in the world came to me as a result of Law of Attraction. I was presenting at the National Hospice & Palliative Care Organization conference in 2001. It was my first really big healthcare conference that I was attending with my guitar in hand. While cruising the exhibit hall on the first evening, I met a musical earth angel named Tami Briggs. She and her harp make the sweetest, most heart-opening sounds I've ever heard.

We became fast friends. Over the years, Tami and I have shared our music and life journey, appreciating our deep connection and communication. Even though we live in different parts of the country with VERY contrasting climates, we manage to nourish our friendship with hours of phone time and numerous emails. (In fact, when we actually DO see each other, it takes me a few minutes to get used to talking face to face!)

Tami plays her harp in hospitals and hospices for patients and their families. Even more importantly,  she educates healthcare professionals about using music as a healing modality. Lucky for me, her conference schedule sometimes brings her to my neck of the woods.

This week, Tami came for a visit (and some warm weather) and offered to play for some of my friends. The guest list was created from my Abraham group,and I set the stage with more candles than Yankee Candle displays in their retail stores!

My favorite part of the evening was the vibration of love that increased exponentially as she played. We all moved into a completely different "zone"...and didn't want to leave. Even now, the lingering energy fills my home and heart.

You too can enjoy Tami's healing music. She's recorded 13 albums, all available on her website, Musical Reflections. My favorite is called The Healing Journey. That and a cup of hot tea are even better than chocolate...almost.

 

Whale Medicine

I know...I know, I just wrote about this wonderful whale adventure. But I couldn't resist another post devoted to the topic because of the note I received today from the Daily OM. When you read it, you'll understand:

Whale Medicine - Spirit Of The Sea

"Native Americans teach us that the Great Spirit speaks to us through our animal brethren. The whale is one animal that we can learn from. Whales have existed for over 50 million years and are considered to be record-keepers who possess knowledge of the past.

It is through the vibrations of their unique sound that they release this ancient wisdom to us. At the same time, their sound carries across such great distances that whales can enter the realm of the future where they can acquire knowledge of what is to come. Every whale sings a song, and they never repeat the same pattern when they sing their song. Since whales must be conscious at all times in order to breathe, they cannot afford to fall into an unconscious state for too long. Never completely asleep, their brain has constant access to the collective unconscious where all answers lie. Whales float peacefully, secure in the ocean environment that supports and sustains them.

You can learn from the wisdom of whales by remembering to express what’s uniquely yours. Each of us has a unique "song" or gift to offer the world. Your song is meant to be sung by you and heard by others. No one else can sing this song but you, and your song is medicine for the healing of the planet. Like whales, you can choose to access information about the future when you go into a meditative state. Whales teach us to look at where we came from and where we are headed. Knowing that our past helps shape our future, we can remember to make positive choices regarding our lives, the environment, and our world. Like whales, we can remember to stay awake and actively engaged in a universe that supports and sustains us. When we express ourselves and share our unique gifts, we add our wisdom and vibration to the planet."

If that's not a reason to join Rhegina Sinozich on this whale of an adventure, I don't know what is! I can hear the whale song even now...
