SUMMARY:Finding a Higher Purpose With Improvisational Native American-Style Flute
DESCRIPTION:What if you could turn off your self-judgment and inner critic and just sit down with a musical instrument and start playing — joyously, exuberantly, and without inhibition…\n… every note perfect in the moment, allowing your soul to sing its own song and express its greatest longings?\nMusic therapist Christine Stevens says  that when we express ourselves freely and creatively, there are no missteps…\n… only discoveries that make us more awake, more inventive, and more resilient in taking on the unknown and unexpected.\nJoin Christine in an inspiring free online sound healing event in which she’ll take you on an improvisational music journey with the Native American-style flute (or by simply using your voice).\n\nClick here to register for free.\n\nWhy Attend “Finding a Higher Purpose With Improvisational Native American-Style Flute”\nChristine says that this flute is one of the easiest and most fulfilling instruments to learn, because it’s crafted in the five notes of the pentatonic scale…\n… and no matter how you combine them, it’s impossible to make a mistake. There are no wrong notes!\nPlaying improvisationally, Christine says, liberates your imagination and enables you to find what’s really true for you, peeling away layers of self-limitation — and maybe even uncovering your higher purpose.\nThis isn’t just about music! You may be surprised to know how creating and playing improvisationally can open a doorway into new states of consciousness that can transform how you live your entire life.\nClass Topics for Finding Higher Purpose with Improvisational Flute\nDuring this event, Christine will guide you through the five notes of the pentatonic scale, giving you an opportunity to feel the emotional content of each note and the energy traveling up your spine as you journey up and down the scale.\nShe’ll also provide you with an animal spirit prompt — the medicine of the Eagle — to sing or play with. It symbolizes the unrestricted aspect of the natural world, and the power of freedom in literally “winging it.”\nDuring this free online sound healing event, you will:\n\nDiscover an “earthing” practice with sound — to ground you into nature and then uplift you\nPractice improvisation with voice or flute based on the 5-note scale, and discover each note’s purpose and energetic gift\nBe infused by a healing improvisation with Christine’s branch flute in the key of E\nExperience the inspiration and cultural significance of combining drum, rattle and flute — the three sounds of creation in the Mexican tradition\nWork with the medicine of the Eagle whose wings remind us of “winging it” and the connection of flute and birds, for a sense of freedom that may alter the way you live your life\n\n\nClick here to register for free.\n\nAbout Your Teacher – Christine Stevens\nAuthor and music therapist Christine Stevens was adopted into a Native American family after spending more than a decade singing Lakota prayer songs, undertaking Hanbleceya (“Crying for a Vision,” one of the seven Lakota Sacred Rites), and becoming a pipe carrier for Women’s Way Long Dance, founded by Connor Sauer. With the permission of her elders and respect for the Red Road ways of music medicine, she has played the Native American-style flute for more than 25 years, as well as percussion for sound healing, honoring Nature in sacred sites, from a Sedona vortex to the Grand Tetons.\nChristine is the author of The Nature Sutras, Music Medicine, and The Healing Drum Kit, and the founder of UpBeat Drum Circles, which brings drumming and sound healing to organizations and events dedicated to uplifting humanity. As an advocate of music and wellness, her media appearances include NBC, PBS, Discovery Health, and Living Better TV.\nChristine, who has worked with Fortune 500 companies, survivors of disasters, and refugee women, serves as a Musical Ambassador of Peace. She led the first drum circle training for peace in northern Iraq and toured Japan with a music medicine approach to the Native American-style flute.\nThe host of Global Rhythm Sangha Online, she teaches a variety of online training programs, including Awaken Your Rhythm, which has served hundreds of people from over 35 countries. Most recently, her pilot study, the Global Tele-Music Therapy program, published in Music and Medicine, helped reduce pain, discomfort, and stress with enduring effects during COVID-19.\nChristine’s commitment to love, beauty, and harmony, and the reciprocity of offering music to Nature continues to guide her sound-healing practice and courses with The Shift Network.\n\nClick here to register for free.\n\n🌟 Even if you can’t attend live… 🌟\nRegister now because you’ll be able to access the recording afterwards.\nHealth Disclosure: The contents of this website/e-mail are for informational purposes only and are not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
