FROM IDEA TO THE BEGINNING OF ITS REALISATION
It all started in the end of last year (2022) when I realised that I was a star & had something valuable to share.. and started writing my life story...
I also started singing more, coinsidentially was invited to a jam session with musicians, sang several songs on stage & even gave my first concert on IG.
So, one of my new year's wishes turned out to be to record music albums: one with 10 cover songs & another with transformational songs..
I started vocal coaching with Kristina @opensound, & my voice was becoming better & better. In May I attended a masterclass by Natasha @che_natasha & had break through in my range.. I realised that my voice was a true gift that I had no right not to honour..
But there was an obstacle for my manifestation.. I made my 'music album' dream a two-step process - first: covers, then: my songs - but I wasn't truly inspired to sing others' songs. The peak of my disappointment happened when I went to perform at Swiss Voice - I didn't really like the song, it wasn't aligned with my life philosophy at all - the song helped me demonstrate my voice, but my soul wasn't in it..
After that I decided to completely give up singing, for I had no motivation to sing those unhealthy lyrics..
This happened although at the same time I realised that life without singing was impossible for me.. Singing is something that I would never be able to give up - even if I do, I'd always always come back to this as I've been doing for the last 15 years..
I ended up not singing for two months.. And noticed how with time I wasn't feeling myself & generally started to feel unmotivated to do anything.
Until I realised (on that day thanks to meditating & playing Leela, generally thanks to my constant self-reflection & support, coaching & mentorship from @liliya_bali, @che_natasha & my mum @irinakey_psy) that my mission was to sing.
And on the 20th October 2023 I made a decision to record my first song (that will be fully mine). (I actually already have one song, but it's not fully mine - I'll share with you later).
I will be recording my song about healing in Turkey in the end of November under the guidance of @che_natasha.
On the 4th November 2023 (my bday) I again made one of the most important wishes for myself - to record & release my music album.
On the 6th November 2023 I realised that I'm ready to dedicate myself & invest all my available funds into the album: read the story of my dedication below in photos ⬇️

My music album is going to be for us.
I'd appreciate it if you could share with me what music moves you (info here). Later I'm going to share my progress & ask for your feedback in a focus group.
HEAL
My first song is about healing - recognising, acknowledging, giving space to, accepting & uniting with all the parts of ourselves.
Healing happens naturally, but one becomes aware of it when one gives space to discomfort & pain.
The song will help us focus on healing, in general.
The accompanying meditation will help us focus on giving space to pain (painful experiences, one by one).
