25.01.2022 Ok, it's a long one but soooooo worth the read! A real life example that Kirtan can fulfill & satisfy our hearts Even a little endeavour on this path goes a long way My friend that messaged me this grew up in Mexico and came along to an event we hosted approx 1 year ago. After the event she sent me a message, expressing that she was feeling empty inside (when a person is honest like this then they can start to go through some real internal change). So I shared with her ...some personal meditation practices I have been given by my Teacher & that I apply in my daily life. Well, she started taking little steps and is now embracing it in her life We have cultivated such a beautiful friendship through sharing in Kirtan & wisdom together (it truly unites people in the most wonderful of ways ). Her message: "There is something I want to tell you, I have been thinking about this year lately and I want to say thanks to you for everything, for guiding me and sharing. It's been a hard year but at the same time I feel better then ever. I think I told you the first time I went to see you, but since I was little I had always felt emptiness in my heart. I was happy but this feeling was always there. For many years I had been looking for something to fill that and this year finally, it feels lees. This is the biggest achievemnet of my life, thank you Merry Christhmas and happy new year to you and Simon! " My reply: "This is so wonderful to hear, I am so happy for you. Just keep watering that plant of spiritual love within your heart by chanting these Sacred Mantras everyday and soon you will not feel emptiness or loneliness at all. Love, Candace"

21.01.2022 Its true! By regularly immersing our heart & mind in kirtan meditation it will illuminate our path in life, shed light on our relationships with others, our work, our environment, how to deal with failures and setbacks, gosh! on every aspect of our life Yes it is that wonderfully transforming

We had the pleasure of attending an absolutely wonderful Kirtan Retreat that some friends organised down the Coast for the past few days (I'll post the vids on the highlights). It was in the fresh air under these beautiful fig trees & was soooo uplifting We chanted, listened to wisdom talks, had picnics, caught up with our mates & there were plays too! Hope you all had a lovely Christmas

13.01.2022 Heart melted! I just received this oh so sweet message from a girl Regina I meet at a mantra teacher training workshop I did a few months ago who was touched by the kirtan and inspired by the wonderful philosophy shared. We connected so naturally, it's such a beautiful thing Regina came along to a yogi day at our place and the girls Kirtan evening (gotta do another one of those by the way, it was far out). "Merry Christmas beautiful Candace, I’m so glad we got to cross... paths this year and I love we will continue to cross paths forever. Hope you have a great day xxxx" My response: "Aww my God, my heart! You're soooooo sweet I feel the same way about you Merry Christmas too sweet soul and have a great day too xoxo" Honestly, relationships with others become sweeter and sweeter through Kirtan Merry Christmas again & best wishes everyone, Candace

I know for me this kind of connection is so necessary right now and it was great to chat with your friend. Im also sorry I didnt make it round to speak to y...ou more. I would love to join again for the next session and Im happy to jump in whichever slot is free. Much love!" Genuine connections with others is where its at This is a pic from when I got invited to do a class at a yoga & meditation festival, so I decided to invite some new friends along.
