Mindfulness and ‘Expression Play’ came to me just in time! I was at a personal and professional crossroads.
After years of performing and teaching, the confidence I had once enjoyed was being seriously hacked by an anxiety bunny.
Not the hoppy, cotton-tailed variety but the night-mare, horror film version.
I make light of it here, but it was truly a scary time.
Luckily, I found my way to the UCLA Mindfulness Awareness Research Center (part of the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior) and began to heal. Learning about mindfulness and all of it’s practices was such a deeply positive and life-changing experience, that I’ve been moved to share it with others ever since.
I now guide and offer what I’ve learned so everyone can enhance their truth of Expression! This open and specially-curated process is achieved through mindfulness, sound healing and vocal techniques.
When we embody mindfulness in this way, we can experience expansive creative freedom and flow!
This is what has been happening for me and what led me to co-create the award-winning music and art immersive short film, ‘The Journey’ and ‘The Journey Live’ (an immersive multi-media ‘Transformance’). Both foster inspiration, awe, entertainment and deep states of well-being.
I also collaborate with my husband, Michael Perricone. Together we have created immersive Mindful Soundscape experiences at SXSW; The Getty; Hammer; Fowler. MOCA museums; and international film, yoga festivals and retreats across the globe. Our live music meditation and music sound baths have been attended virtually and globally by tens of thousands; are placed in films, television and on all online formats; the 22m user InsightTimer app has featured our music and meditation recordings to rave reviews, and our compositions enjoy millions of plays worldwide and growing.
I am so grateful for the tools that I have learned and continue to learn from. Join me so that you, too, can find your very own, fantastic, truth!
