Today's episode brings with it such a unique and beautiful texture, as you'll get to meet a personal friend and my guitar teacher, Mellisa Reeves.
Apart from teaching guitar, piano and many other instruments, Mellisa is also a transformational facilitator, lifelong musician, doula, and gatherer. Her passion is to create space for people to heal through reclaiming the communal practices of song and ceremony.
Top 5 Things You’ll Learn from This Episode:
- tips for some first steps to take if singing and playing instruments has been calling to you
- her take on what embodiment really is and how to experience it
- why it's so important that she felt the call to become an embodiment facilitator
- Mellisa shares about a pivotal life experience and spiritual awakenings
- her “origin story” being the oldest of 10 kids who were homeschooled on a farm in Northern Canada, and how it shaped her.
Being a student of Mellisa is really incredible and along those lines, we talk about music as medicine—and how you can create it too.
Make sure to join us in our closing practice: Mellisa immerses us in a closing practice of embodiment that also weaves in her playing the shruti box, that can open up some life-changing realizations for you.
