In Morocco        ~New Music Video~                'Behind the Dark'

9/30/2016

Exploring Northern Africa, in the ancient city of Fez in Morocco, I came across amazing ancient architecture, rich foods, & old culture steeped in religious  beliefs and sacred geometry all around. 
This experience inspired me to shoot a new music video for the down tempo song 'Behind the Dark' whose lyrics speak "behind the dark is always light" which reveals a depth and peace that is unique to my new album.  
While walking through the earthen walled inner city, the Medina, I entered a small silver jewelry store, and spoke with the young man who owned the store.  He said he loved Medicine for the People! I was amazed to be in such a remote part of Africa, and yet reminded that like attracts like and with the right state of mind~ we find love wherever we go!

Teaching Rhythm & Birth Workshop in Scotland

An amazing group gathered to learn and experience with Hope  about the natural human bio rhythms that we can affect and alter with healing intentions with the drum.  We discussed the ancient techniques of using music and drums in both pregnancy and birthing to support mother to connect with her source, her baby, and her heartbeat while calming her mind and moving her hips to open the pelvis effectively for faster, gentler birthing.
 
Hope led a drum journey allowing participants to visualize a reconnection with their source and their womb for both healing and to plant seeds of intention.  
They also explored specific rhythms used in Africa to encourage a child to come to a family. 

    Stoked to share the latest in my world-
    ​with your world!
