There's a new station in town...ANY town...playing all kinds of music (including mine) and hosting all kinds of interviews (including me). There's even a Positive Music channel to keep you in the groove all day long.
And if Positive Music isn't your thing, you can listen to Blues/Jazz, Classical, Comedy, Country, Rock or Talk at this one-stop shop for your listening pleasure!
I'm honored and excited that my anthem for these times, "NEW SONG," is the subject of an essay by Rev. Steve Maynard for the Birth 2012 movement initiated by Barbara Marx Hubbard. The song is a soothing and energizing musical rallying cry written with love, hope and faith in the human spirit. It IS time for a new song, we ARE awakening to one heart, we ARE the change that this time is bringing, and it IS the sound of love singing!
Visionary, social pioneer and author, Barbara Marx Hubbard,describes BIrth 2012 as "a growing movement of worldwide citizens who are committed to linking hearts and minds with others and consciously co-creating the next stage of our evolution. There are currently more than 37,000 'global change agents' worldwide who are commited to evolving humanity into the next era."
It is my highest joy to be part of this movement through my music and my heart.

My favorite thing in the world is sharing my music and hearing about some of the ways it has become part of your journey. I love riding in the car with you or being part of your bodywork sessions or keeping you going when the going gets tough...
"When I listen to your music, I am in total connection with Spirit."
This holiday season, I’ve come up with a way to help you spread good cheer with my first ever Special Share-the-Music Offer. Beginning today, when you give the gift of positive music to a friend, I’ll give YOU a gift, too!

Do you need other gift ideas? Patrick just finished creating SoulScapes fine art posters and prints that incorporate lines from my songs. 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 print can be tailored to your needs. 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!)

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!)

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

Thanksgiving had a different quality this year because of the sad news of the death of Jerry Hicks. Esther sent out an honest, heartfelt letter that was full of both Abraham and humanness. And while I know about the eternal nature of us, and our connection to non-physical, it's hard to imagine Esther without Jerry at the front of the room during a workshop...on the road...writing, talking, asking questions...holding the space for so much energy. His warm and easy smile will be missed.
In his honor, I'm reprinting his "Recipe for Joy" with a promise to live it as best I can.
Recipe for Joy ~ Jerry Hicks
“Seek joy first and foremost
Seek reasons to laugh
Seek reasons to offer words of praise to self and others
Seek beauty in nature, beasts and other humans
Seek reasons to love in every segment of every day
Look for something that brings forth within you a feeling of love
Seek that which uplifts you
Seek opportunity to offer that which uplifts another
Seek a feeling of well being
Know that your value can only be measured in terms of joy
Acknowledge your absolute freedom to do any of these things or not do any of these things, for it is without exception your choice in every moment of every day.”
Amanda Gore is a wonderful, funny, energetic and authentic inspirational speaker from Australia who uplifts everyone within earshot. I was lucky to come across one of her YouTube Videos about how to let people know you love them. She sends them "Zooties."
Her video inspired me so much that I wrote a little song about it and taught it to anyone I could find! Recently, when my dear friend, songbird Lisa Jane Lipkin, came for a visit, I taught it to her too...and we then raced to the studio so we could send Zooties to you in 8-part harmony!
And now, without further explanation, is The Zoot Zoot Song...so you can send some too!
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."

Visionary author, Jean Houston, said recently that "music will be the catalyst for global transformation." Holding the vision for this transformation, positive musicians are spreading the songs of our souls all over the world. Thanks to Scott Johnson, founder of the Positive Music Association,there is a central meeting place for hundreds of musicians . We are posting songs and videos and encouragement on the new Facebook Page and welcome you to sing along.
A sampling of the music can be heard on PMA Radio. Here's Nathen Aswell, and his wonderful song "Little By Little". And then choose love with Shawn Gallaway, and toe-tap your way to raising your vibration.
Jill Mattson is a sound healer and pioneer in the field. She poses some interesting questions (and their answers) to get you thinking about the wonders of sound. "Sound changes us and morphs us constantly on a subtle basis," according to Mattson (and me). Here are the questions she poses...and the answers.
· Can you be affected physically by music? Yes!
· Can you be affected by enjoying a flower? Or the frequencies of flowers? Yes!
· Does tiny subtle energy from the movements of the planets in our solar system affect you? Yes!
· Do people emit tiny subtle frequencies, based on their physical and emotional and mental status? Yes! Do they effect you? Yes!
· Do emotions have specific frequencies? Yes!
· Is your energy subtly affected by being around a happy puppy or child? Yes!
· When you go to the mall and are in a crowd of people does this energy subtly affect you? Yes!
· Can you catch (or emulate) the frequency of another's virus? Yes!
· Can you catch the benefits of someone nearby humming or playing an instrument? Yes!
· Is humming good for you? Yes!
· Do the frequencies of the wind, ocean, bird song, crickets and water uplift you? Yes!
· Do the frequencies from stones deep in the ground below you vibrate subtly and intermingle with you? Yes! (Places of good earth energy are usually holy places...like Chartres, pyramids...)
· Can a specific voice have a healing impact on you? Yes!
· Can a specific voice drag you down? Yes!
· Does the specific sound of a language affect you? Yes!
· Are you a frequency that subtle sings to those around you? Yes!
Happy humming to you all!!
