"For me, singing is a life path, a spiritual journey that has led to the very core of my being," says Ashana. "Music can transport us, lift us to the place where we gently let go and open completely to receive and remember the divine heart that lives within each one of us, that truly lives in all beings. I have seen, felt and been utterly transformed by the power of sound and music to heal; it is a gift to us from the Source of Love - it is total, pure Grace."
