About the Event

Voice as Home: A community song circle, calling in our Wholeness

Mmmm,  ommmmm, hummmm, Home:  humans make noise!  A baby's unfettered squeal, a  truth-telling rage burst, sweet moan of pleasure, lullabies only our  secret hearts know.  But most of us get some version of : please don't. Don't be so loud, don't sing off key, don't tell me the whole truth.

So  what's it like to find our way back to truly loving, honoring, and  honing the perfectly imperfect voice we are given,  trusting that our  truth is needed and welcome?  Community singing (simple songs taught  call-and-echo in circle form) is one path of practice and a growing  movement that honors the relationship between our voices and our hearts,  our voices and our grief, our voices and our path to mutual liberation.

With a background in community arts, yoga, racial justice work, and collective grief-tending,  Lyndsey will invite us into embodiment exercises, vocal warm-ups, & group inquiry that opens an authentic space where we can play inside the music we already are.   We'll slow and steady learn fresh songs that speak to the grit and grace of braving up to be real. You'll leave  the evening heart open, flushed with oxytocin, and a pocket full of  sacred songs to keep singing yourself free.

+All voices welcome i.e. you don't have to 'be a singer' ;) +

 Lyndsey Scott is  an artist goofball yintennae devoted to priestesSing the Heartland,  (literal and figurative).  She weaves community singing to empower  earth-based spiritual consciousness, and gathers soul circles that,  through Song and sacred listening, decompose oppressive scripts that get  in the way of freely living the Love we are. With jams that get you  skipping easily between the sacred, sexy, and sssssilly : your inner  child, exiled banshee, and wise elder are all very invited to the  circle.  Check out new album for spirit-nourishment here: Well Held.
