Episode Synopsis "Singing As Spiritual Practice"

I am joined by a very special guest - my mother! Lou Ann Horstman shares her story of embracing her love of singing. You will be inspired by her journey with singing, how she traveled from seeing it as "decoration on the liturgy" to a rich and valid way of experiencing God's presence. Her story will make you want to sing more, and will ignite your curiosity about what practices might already exist in your life that are simply waiting to be taken seriously.SHOW NOTESThe Institute for Applied Meditation on the HeartThreshold ChoirOn the neuroscience of singingWomen Who Run With the Wolves by Dr. Clarissa Pinkola EstesLearning to Fall by Philip SimmonsThe Library Book by Susan OrleanAlthough House of St. Michael the Archangel is no longer an organization, I have inherited our publications and CDs.
