90. The Shame Song with Guest Ahlay Blakely

« PreviousNext »
Song: the shame song
Music & Words: Alexandra (Ahlay) Blakely
Lyrics
If I'm gonna fall
and if I'm gonna change;
may it serve the whole --
may it turn a page.

If I'm gonna fail,
if I'm gonna learn,
may it serve the whole --
may it serve the future ones!

I, too, deserve belonging.
I, too, deserve to heal.
I, too, deserve aliveness --
I deserve to court the shadows here.
(2x)

Notes: I loved the chance to hear Ahlay share both this song and its origin as a song that "slipped through," almost without effort, in response to hearing someone's deep shame over a Zoom call. Ahlay shares her excitement over her project, WAILS, in which community singing and grief ritual are merged. She talks about "Healing that ripples non-linearly, in a spiral," and says, "I'm channeling the exact medicine that I need for myself." We talk about elders, mentors, wisdom and the tools for remembering that which was meant to be forgotten -- the deep connections that are possible. How "I can't sing" comes from a commodification of voices, while "the inherent birthright of singing is about how it feels in our bodies." Whales, and their wisdom of rising and diving as the nature of things, and the transience of emotions. Brené Brown wrote, "True belonging doesn't require us to change who we are; it requires us to be who we are." Ahlay has a beautiful way of being who she is, and it was an honor to hold this conversation.

​Songwriter Info: Alexandra "Ahlay" Blakely (she/her) is a song carrier remembering that which was meant to be forgotten in her lineages: song technology as connective tissues of the communal body. She blends song, body percussion, dance, stillness, breath & silence with the deepest intention to support others in remembering their inherent birthright to singing and rhythm. Her ancient ancestors of Old Europe (Ashkenazi, Scandinavian, Finnish, English, Scottish, Irish) sang while building, creating, birthing, working & being in reciprocity and bring with the Land. She understands song to be fundamental in the expansion of ones internal capacity to participate in the collective shift towards life-affirming conditions. An underlying prayer in her song offerings is that they may contribute to the shared effort to transform white culture into being more connected with our bodies, emotions, Land & the animate world around us. ​ These songs are swirls of spells for cracking open, falling humbly to our knees and cultivating more access to the conversations our souls are aching to have with us about their most intimate longings. They are dedicated to the more than human world, the Waters and our Kin in both the seen and unseen realms. We sing to shame, courage, for breaking cycles of intergenerational trauma and for the preparation of being ready for these times we are living in, all while sending these song-beings in ripples through to the ancient and future ones. The songs sung have come directly through Ahlay.​ ​ Some of her mentors: Whale, Mycelium, Rue, Lightning, Rain, Oak, Redwood & Rosemary

89. a spell for intergenerational trauma

« PreviousNext »
Song: a spell for intergenerational trauma
Music & Words: Alexandra (Ahlay) Blakely
Lyrics

​Breaking
Breaking
Breaking the cycles now

Ripple through
Through to the ancient ones
Ripple through
Through to the future ones
​
Healing at the Root
We’re calling
Healing at the root
of our belonging

​
​
Picture
Notes: Patty Piotrowski, who creates the art for each episode after learning the song, wrote about painting for this song of Ahlay Blakely: "The word that jumped out for me was “breaking”. I have a plate, a whole pottery plate on my kitchen table, that holds broken porcelain shards of dishware from the late 1800’s when there was a fire that burned the hotel on Star Island and so much was lost at sea. This past summer when I had the opportunity to go to Star Island for two weeks of art making, I walked the shoreline, and found these remnants of past plates and bowls and cups. These pieces of porcelain from England were worn smooth on the edges from being tossed and turned in the ocean for over 100 years. Each one was a precious discovery for me, telling a bit of the story. The beauty of the brokenness. Back home now and months later I have them arranged on a plate with a candle, reminding me to understand and honor the past, and to heal what I can inside myself in the present."

As we navigate the rage and wounding and grief in ourselves and others, it can be so helpful to have a framework for understanding… the kind of understanding that leads to healing and compassion. When we break these cycles, it affects the future ones – and it also reaches back and in some way fills the aching dream of those in the past. I love this song for the conviction that my own ache for belonging ripples through time, breaks harmful cycles, and creates a fundamental healing. Don't miss Ahlay's upcoming project, Wails, and the chance to be part of the ripples of change it could create by supporting it.

65. Loving-Kindness with Guest Wendy Luella Perkins

« PreviousNext »
Lyrics to all six songs shared in this episode
​by Wendy Luella Perkins
LOVING-KINDNESS TO THE WHOLE
© April 17-19, 2022 - Wendy Luella Perkins
In bed with lots of sciatic pain and began singing loving-kindness to my leg, my ankles, etc (as an add on to my body scan)…later on morning walk this was created.

loving-kindness to my body
loving-kindness to my mind
loving-kindness to each and every joy
and heartbreak of my time
loving-kindness to my spirit
loving-kindness to my soul
loving-kindness to each and every part
loving-kindness to the whole


zipper: your body, our bodies, all bodies

WHEN ALL IS SWIRLING
©2004 - Wendy Luella Perkins

when all is swirling in my heart
quiet come
take rest in me


zipper: busy, worry, hurry, troubled, etc

WE’RE ALL CONNECTED
©2020 - Wendy Luella Perkins

we’re all connected, bird, cloud and tree
we’re all connected, earth, wind and sea
an interwoven, exquisite tapestry
we’re all connected, breath, you and me


​IT'S GOOD TO HAVE A SONG OR TWO
©2022 - Wendy Luella Perkins

it's good to have a song or two
when the road gets bumpy
it's good to have a song or two
on this journey

​
Picture

​TRUST IN THE POWER

©2021 - Wendy Luella Perkins

i'm gonna trust in the power
trust in the power
the power of love
i'm gonna trust in the power
trust in the power
the power of love


zipper: song, care, story, etc.

TO LOVE I DO RETURN
©2021 - Wendy Luella Perkins

to love i do return
to love i do return
when my heart breaks open
to this broken world
to love i do return


zipper: song, action, courage, kindness etc.
Notes: Wendy Luella Perkins sings to telemarketers, tells of her brother choosing her for his show-and-tell, and why she has a tik-tok channel. She talks about auditory memory, singing as refuge, and the reclamation of her voice. She describes the transition from singer/songwriter work into the Soulful Singing in 2002, and the challenges unique to this kind of therapeutic singing which is not professional therapy. We have the awkward conversation about money -- is it possible to make a living as a songwriter without commodifying song, which is a birthright? Patty Piotrowski has created the most appropriate beautiful art in my mind because of the generosity and openness of the bloom.

Songwriter Info: Wendy Luella Perkins has been singing and making up songs since she was a very young child. When she was three years old, her older brother, Tim, took her to school as his Show+Tell item saying, “this is my sister Wendy Lu, listen to her sing!” She's been going strong ever since. As a singer-songwriter, Unitarian Universalist community minister, and founder, in 2002 of Soulful Singing (singing meditation for all) Wendy Luella leverages the power of song to build authentic, healing and joyful communities.

A prolific writer of folk songs and meditative chants and supportive guide who helps others to create their own songs, Wendy Luella's greatest joy is to bring friends and strangers together in the transformational circle of song. Wendy Luella has produced three CDs of original music, which you can find on her website. As a response to pandemic restrictions and recognizing the need to keep on singing in community, especially in difficult times, Wendy Luella transitioned Soulful Singing to online sessions in March 2020. Soulful Singers from all over have been gathering online EVERY SINGLE DAY since then and once a week on THURSDAY evenings.
​
Everyone is welcome to join Soulful Singing via Zoom. Singing daily over the last 875+ days with wonderful folks from Kingston and around the world has encouraged Wendy Luella to share her original songs more broadly in what she calls her “Song Liberation Project” (The SLiP). She has written hundreds of songs and with The SLiP is sharing them one by one on TikTok. Wendy Luella grew up in rural Nova Scotia, and has lived in Kingston Ontario for over 25 years with her sweetheart and fellow musician, Charlie Walker. She loves waking early, walking daily, eating communally, crafting publicly, sharing deeply, gardening bountifully, laughing abundantly and of course, singing soulfully!

61. Sanctuary with Singer Joy Tru

« PreviousNext »
Song: Sanctuary
Words & Music​ by Patricia Norton & you
Lyrics
I'm in a sanctuary right here, *right now*.
(2x)
When so much is wrong, so much is hard, something is right.
(2x)
*in this breath*
or *with this friend*
*in this song* or *in this memory*
*as I'm painting* or ?
Picture
Notes: This is a vacation episode! I'm on vacation with my dear friend, Joy Truskowski... and what do you think we're doing together? We've been having such a good time singing, and on this episode (I think the shortest yet) you get to hear us together, singing a song I wrote just as a particularly difficult time was beginning. It helps me to not jump ahead to the future or gnash over the past -- that I can be right here, right now, and usually that's a pretty good moment. I asked the A Breath of Song listeners via the email list where they've experienced sanctuary, and they wrote the lyrics we sing... here are some of the other options that came up: in my swing, in this garden, in this choir, with this book, as I'm cooking, with this patient, with my cats, with my ponies, in my loved one's arms, in a canoe, while I'm painting, meditating.

Songwriter Info: I'm bringing you this podcast, so you've already got a sense of me! You can find more about me at the juneberrymusic website, or pertaining specifically to this podcast here at abreathofsong.com.

54. Surrender

« PreviousNext »
Song: Surrender
Words & Music:​ Kaitie Ty Warren
Lyrics
What if I just stop struggling?
What if I just stop struggling?
​What if I let it go?
Can I surrender?

Picture
​Notes: When choosing the searchable categories for this song, "Surrender," I found myself surprised by the juxtapositions -- I picked "Empower" and "Grieve", "Pain" and "Trust", "Accept" and "Flex". I realized how I find the most strength and power and freedom in myself at the moments when I surrender to how I feel, how my body is in the moment, my limitations. I love this series of questions that help me remember the possibility of surrender. Don't miss the back story to this song, told in Kaitie's own words at https://thelivingroomchoir.com/surrender/. Next week, Kaitie and I dive into a songwriter conversation, and Kaitie shares a delightful new song about the awkwardness of change and growth... and we talk about finding both continuity and fluidity in music and life, the Ubuntu philosophy, and much, much more.

Songwriter Info: Kaitie Ty Warren (she) is a Bay Area-based songleader, teacher, writer, cartoonist and performer. Passionate about creating joyful experiences through music, Kaitie uses simple yet luscious harmonies to build bridges within communities and bring people together in song. In early 2020, Kaitie's Living Room Choir moved online, and that fall her first child was born. Living Room Choir continued online, and in 2021 Kaitie added Simple Harmonies: Songs for Babies & Their Grown-Ups. Nowadays, Kaitie is still leading online but also exploring pandemic-conscious opportunities to sing together in person. Her dream, pandemic-willing, is to host a vibrant, in-person, intergenerational choir for babies, children and adults of all ages to sing together. ​

52. Ocean Wide

« PreviousNext »
Song: Ocean Wide
Words & Music: Eli Marienthal
Lyrics
Open the ocean wide in us, open the ocean wide.
Take all the pain inside of us, take all the pain inside.
Open the ocean wide in us, oh, open the ocean wide.
​Take all the pain inside of us, take all the pain inside.

Picture
Notes: My interest in Eli Marienthal's song, "Ocean Wide" comes directly from how it expands my capacity to be present with deep grief and pain -- that of my own or that of others. My fear of feeling -- fear that somehow the world will crumble if I recognize how much pain I feel -- that fear is eased by the sense of having enough space inside me -- an ocean of space, in fact -- that is wide enough, deep enough, capacious enough for every drop of pain, every howl of grief. I love that this song has so much space for the singer inside it -- do you need to just sing a melody, over and over, to soothe and center yourself? Do you want to experiment, explore, let your voice speak to you? I hope I left space in this for you to fill in your own way -- and I hope you, too, find it healing to sense that oceanic space inside you.

Songwriter Info: Since 2014, Eli has co-led one of Northern California's wilderness immersion and rite of passage organization for youth. He has wide interests -- geography, comparative lit, poetry, songwriting, spoken-word performance, theater, peacemaking, nature awareness, cross cultural respect, qi gong, leadership development and more.

50. Navigate The Current with guest Saro Lynch-Thomason

« PreviousNext »
Song: Navigate the Current  Words by Saro Lynch-Thomason  Melody based on the traditional Irish tune ​known as "Star of the County Down"
Lyrics
I often feel a deep despair For a pain that feels unending
For a body made with many faults That resists all salve or mending
I’m tossed and driven with a tide Of an ocean unforgiving
I am left shaking on the shore Afraid of even standing.

I feel a deep temptation then As I am lying weary
For a marble form to encase my bones That I may rest more deeply
What comfort to be cast as stone To be static and suspended
No ecstasy, no misery Nothing given or expended

I am startled then by the touch of friends Who raise and fortify me
Who say my name, bid me stretch my frame Help me face the sea’s great fury.
Where would I be in these long hours Without their voices by me?
To ease the pain and soothe the strain Of a troubled and angry body?
​
I am bound between the amity That salves a body splintered
And the cries and sighs of the daily hours That pull my soul more inward.
Oh, may I learn to trust the hands That soothe a pain so fervent
​May I ride each wave with a greater faith And navigate the current
Picture
Notes: There's a freedom in not waiting for a cure. Traditional music is a way to connect to your spiritual ancestral community; it can affirm your experience and there's the "big expansion of empathy that is happening when we sing." Ornamentation and pronunciation of words in oral tradition. We don't create in isolation. How Saro's mom conveyed joy in singing, and what Saro would love "every human being on the planet to understand about disability." The broad umbrella of disability. Speaking with compassion to our bodies, and how that relates to justice work. Why singing is too important to be left to the professionals. Need I say more? This conversation with Saro has left me mulling over so much, and learning "Navigate the Current" has touched me deeply. Here's a chance to dig into what authentic expression feels like...
​
Songwriter Info: Saro Lynch-Thomason is an award-winning ballad singer, song leader, folklorist, and documentarian from Asheville, North Carolina. Saro has been studying and teaching traditional song and balladry from the British Isles, Appalachia and the American South for over a decade. Saro believes that old songs help modern learners access history, folklore, and (most importantly) compassion for the experiences of others, and she uses in-person teaching, film documentary, podcasts and more to convey these lessons. She holds an M.A. in Appalachian Studies and a Certificate in Documentary Studies.
