‘As you continue to develop, you will continue to have new insights and expanded awareness …[you] will undergo a transformation, and you will be able to identify the finer feelings of the heart.’ From Realities of the Dreaming Mind by Swami Radha

 

Screen Shot 2016-01-25 at 5.56.50 AMUpon discovering the Yasodhara website, I was instantly drawn to the lake and mountains as well as the different yogic practices. I ended up living at the ashram for over 2 years, doing the 3-month Yoga Development Course (YDC, 2012), teacher certification courses, Karma Yoga, teaching classes and workshops and singing. Back in the Netherlands I share the Light by singing and playing in different mantra and bhajan circles.

My album, Devi of Song, is available for you to download!

It’s part of a Yasodhara Yoga European Network fundraiser for Yasodhara Ashram’s Temple of Light. To give thanks for all this beautiful community has given me, all proceeds of this album go toward the Temple.

Two songs are available for free streaming on my Sound Cloud. Interested in supporting the Temple of Light by downloading my album? Click here for details.

MY STORY

During the three years I lived at Yasodhara Ashram a yoga retreat and study centre. I discovered the power of the voice and uncovered my own power. I learned that singing helps me feel connected, stay present with myself and face what is happening within and around me. I took on the project of creating an album in order to stay connected to the teachings of the Ashram and to my higher Self.

I also learned which internal voices to listen to and which to ignore. Overcoming criticism like “If you don’t record in a studio, it’ll never sound right,” or “who in their right mind would ever listen to this?” added to my learning. Choosing “good enough” over “perfect” is a spiritual practice in its own right.
