Episode: A Journey Into Winter Stillness

New Episode: Winter Stillness Guided Journey

Feeling too busy for a podcast - until a vision came during choir practice. This week: pure medicine. A guided shamanic journey into your winter stillness, bookended by ancient songs.

No story. No analysis. Just: close your eyes, drop your shoulders, and step through the portal.

17 minutes. Pure offering.

In This Episode:

Music:

* Queen Space Baroque - “Ritual Door” (opening)

* Avalonian Free State Choir - “Ananita” (Basque lullaby, pre-Christian)

* Avalonian Free State Choir - “Patapan” (French traditional carol)

The Journey: From a bustling Christmas market, a man in Dickens clothing creates a portal with his finger and thumb. Step through into a cedar forest where trees stand like ancestors. In an ancient clearing, build a fire that sparks without needing light - it knows the way. A distant drum calls your body to drop into winter dreaming, into the holy weave that connects you to everyone you love and all who came before. The closing song brings you gently home.

“ Relax. Loosen. Let go.”

Find somewhere you can close your eyes for 10 minutes. Let me guide you into the stillness.

Featured:

The Avalonian Free State Choir Professional choir based in Avalon (Glastonbury), singing ancient and traditional songs. Recorded at the Glastonbury Frost Fair, late November. The Basque language predates most European languages - these sounds were lulling babies to sleep long before Christianity.
