Ella Fitzgerald said, ”The only thing better than singing is more singing!” Use song to find wellness in ourselves, each other, and our world. In each episode, Patricia introduces a song that she trusts to help her navigate life. These songs provide a great soundtrack to your day — whether it’s comfort, presence, delight, grief-tending, or simply easing the way. Periodic interviews with song creators add color and understanding. Songs have helped Patricia heal, adapt, and grow, and she hopes these selections will become companions for you as well.

135. What Would It Take
Words & Music by Meg O’Dell Chittenden
What would it take to let yourself
Fall, fall in love with life completely
What is the place that softly calls you
Home, home, back to yourself so ease-fully
All of these days are made of what we sow
Gather in and then let go
Beneath these waves of joy and grief and woe
The sea moves deep and slow
Words by Ana Levy-Lyons
Music by Adam Podd, February 2022
Whoever you are,
Whomever you love,
Wherever you are on your life journey –
You are welcome here.
Words & Music by Mazal Etedgi
There’s a *vision* in you,
there’s a *vision* in me,
there’s a *vision* in everybody.
[2x]
Rise up.
Come down.
Rise up.
Come down, come down,
feet on the ground.
127. Willing to Receive, Willing to Release
Words & Music by Lynn O’Brien
I am willing to receive
whatever you’ve got for me.
I’ll take the big.
I’ll take the small.
I’ll take the unknown.
I’ll take it all.
I am o-opening.
I am willing to release
Whatever does not serve me.
I’ll drop the big.
I’ll drop the small.
I’ll drop the unknown.
I’ll drop it all,
and I’ll let go…
of everything
by Pam Blevins Hinkle
I breathe for the trees and they breathe for me.
You and me and the tree, living in reciprocity.
Rooted in the moment and reaching for each other.
Rooted in the moment and reaching for the dream.
