Interview:
Music itself is something very spiritual – it is a wonder that music exists on this world – it has a deeper sense! As a music therapist I experience everyday music as medicine. Music can help people to overcome the strokes of life and to heal the wounds of the soul. Music is a part of the cosmos. Birds are singing to praise the beauty of nature, fish are joining a jam session under water, the whole universe vibrates like a great symphony – music is everywhere.
Especially singing together is one of the most powerful gates to interconnect and to experience unity with the universe and transcendence. All spiritual traditions use singing to create a communion with the divine. When many people sing together we enter a state of deep peace and freedom of the soul – we can feel like one sacred being. Music and singing helps us to discover the deeper meaning of our life here on Earth again and again.
“Music and singing helps us to discover the deeper meaning of our life here on earth again and again.”
