November 8 was launch date


Everything was ready on the website, and yesterday I spent about 10 hours launching the new Radiance music. I'm so excited that it is out in the world. This new music is light and happy and gentle and just perfect for the holiday season. Radiance celebrates the beauty of nature....especially in the world of trees and flowers and water and birds and frogs.....all life is interconnected with radiance.

At the same time, I sent out my holiday sale and this year I followed the example of everyone else and cut my CD prices about 65 percent. Let's see if I can't get my music out in CD form to people who have never heard it before. This is certainly happening all the time with my digital music sales. And now it looks like I will be breaking through into yet another market in Japan with regular CDs.

I have added YouSendIt to my available tools for getting the music out. When you order a download directly from me, the entire CD will come via YouSendIt and it will be very easy to download onto your computer and into i-tunes. VIDA and RADIANCE are now available to download directly from me.

All of this technology is remarkable and so helpful to me. There was a time when all marketing was in paper form, and when all music was in cassette or CD form. And yet....there is something special about holding a CD with incredible artwork on the cover.

We are having a heat wave in the Midwest. After experiencing snow just three days ago, it is in the upper 60s and sunny for the first three days of this week. Then....back to cold. As I sit here writing, the sun is coming up through the bare tree branches and it is absolutely beautiful. Radiance is all around me.

Love to all.

In the Natural Timing of Things

Hi everyone..... Two weeks ago I recorded the final 10 minutes of the Wisdom Ablaze album, received the digital CD for the artwork of the cover (Ann Beeching original) and the music master is ready to go to National Media. It is part of a three CD series on Wisdom. The Wisdom music began with the album " A Celebration of Life and Love " which was released in 2012.  The third track is called Wisdom, and this album explores the various aspects of living in the warmth of Wisdom Fire:  Dancing in Lightness of Spirit, Sacred Voice, Woven in Gentleness, and A Gentle Touch.  Track three, Wisdom, emerges from Track one: At The Cave, and Track two:  Sunrise. A year later, I completed Wisdom Enters The World In Love . This powerful music again brings the place of the Wisdom Cave (Track one), the Wisdom Mountain (track two)….both sacred places of birth…..then we have the aspects of Wisdom:  (track four) Wisdom Dances the Waters, (track five)Her Gentle Voice, (track six) Fire With

Music supports the world around me

Several weeks ago I received a phone call from a hospice nurse in Honolulu. She had a patient who was dying and listening to The Beloved was the only thing that could calm her down. She later called to say that this person had died peacefully while listening to The Beloved. That is why I do what I do. Creating and performing the music that comes to me is not done to sell music and make sales, but to bring into the world a quality of beauty and connection into the individual's inner world that is transformative. The ducks in this photo were hatched right outside of my mom's front window. The mother duck came out of the marshes to build her nest where mom could see it every day. Aren't they cute! It's amazing the beauty and the joy in nature. My mom is going through an important journey in her life right now, and family is very supportive of her in this time of transition. Thus, you are not hearing as much from me, but we are alive and well. Mayan Dream Producti

The Journey

This photo was taken in a nature preserve in Indiana and it is now covered in snow. We are under a winter storm warning...expecting another "many" inches of snow and it is beautiful. I loved this path because it reminds me of Copan, Honduras. I chose this photo for today's Musings because it calls forth the journey into the unknown which is my life and yours. The economic news yesterday was very bleak.. a couple of million people without work and without health insurance. Many millions more without enough work to actually buy enough food and to pay for the basics of life. The stock market falling....companies closing or downsizing. The political news was bleak....war.....terror....poverty across the world. And yet.....the unknown journey continues. We don't know really what this means. The planet is massively shaking off one form of living life based on an outer and inner masculine structure that created an artificial and very destructive life. The sacred femi
