“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”
~ Rainer Maria Rilke

As 2024 unfurls and takes shape, come explore the pathway of your voice-as-is to access the depth and breadth of your powerful heart's ability to abide with the dark, the quiet, and the questions.
Lyndsey practices community singing as a pathway to mutual liberation & a reclamation of ritual wisdom skill. She believes:
“Unblocking energy, melting judgment, decomposing scripts of separation, enlisting endorphins, . . . . in Singing together, we practice the muscle to choose the love and freedom we desire to. Wavelengths change things.”
Best known for “The Way Knows", Lyndsey catches and leads rhythmic sing-along mantras that anchor sacred trust and sensual devotion... with a generous touch of trickster fun ;)
She loves to play+pray inside the sweet space where the sacred and profane kiss — calling us simultaneously into our elder & child selves AND our deepest call to sacred Service, carving out more space for all of it… the grief, the praise, the pleasure, the Presence.
Flow:
Doors open: 1:15 ~ please arrive & settle in by 1:30p
Song container: 1:30-3:30p
We'll open circle space, ground + warm-up + connect, then call-and-echo learn songs and make beauty -- building them slow and steady, welcoming harmony and improvisation as we find our groove. This type of singing is for all voices, to unfurl the line from heart to throat and claim our power and belonging. Science says our heartbeats sync up when we sing together ~ My prayer, you'll leave our gathering feeling more open and expansive, flushed with happy chemicals, love gleaming out your beautiful eyes, and with a pocket full of sacred songs to keep singing yourself free
