Listen to the Adventure

The adventure is a healing journey with Madeleine Doherty. Every time I sit and listen to her journey and the music that has been generated from it all, I feel just a bit more uplifted and clear of purpose.  Last night a group of friends came together for a house party, great food, lots of laughter and music from Madeleine and Tara - the harp that is accompanying her on her US concerts this time around.  I can only speak for myself, but watching the faces of those around me, I think we all felt so uplifted, engaged and capturing the spirit of the evening and the music.  Madeleine is so transparent in sharing...where she has been...how fearful she was...and where she is now.  Her Living Notes CD takes me along every time - encouraging me to "fly away home" and 'just let go of the fears'.  By the time Rainbow Magic plays, I feel uplifted and ready to go out and dance in nature with the fairies!  It's special to hear about the Healing Harp program she coordinates in Ireland - and even more special that she has agreed to come to Cooper Hospital for a healing harp session.  Hope it all works - it will benefit so many people!!  Talking about synchronicities - I went to a harp concert three years or so ago at the Mullica Hill grange...and the connection began...just did...and will grow as the years continue to flow!!

Goldie, Madeleine and Friends - Healing Happens!!

Healing happens...it just does!!  We can facilitate, look for the synchronicities and invite others to participate, but in the final event, it is those who are meant to be there who come!  Last night was no exception.  Madeleine Doherty has become more than a person playing the harp at a concert - that was three years ago.  Now, she is just a gentle spirit, a compassionate and giving person, and an inspiration and friend to many.  Last weekend was 'full of Madeleine' yet I knew it was not over - I wanted to visit more and invite her energy, along with Goldie the harp to our home.  That I did.  Someone asked how I pulled it off?  Didn't- just did and guess that is how I do things.  I want something to happen, put it out to the Universe and it manifests!!  I invited many people - so many were full of obligations, but seven needed to be together and we were!

Meet the group:  Sonja, Megan, Jane, June, Conni~Joi, Toni, Martie and Madeleine - there is light in this picture - yes from the lamps but also from the inner glow that was showing so naturally from everyone!  After everyone left, I turned off the lights and sat in meditation for about 20 minutes with the energy from the evening that has remained in the house.  So we have started something new - House Parties with Madeleine!!

Madeleine, Goldie and Healing Harp Music

It's not everyday that an Irish harpist comes to present a concert in a Yoga Studio in P:itman, NJ but yesterday was the exception.  Meet Madeleine Doherty.  When she comes to the states, she borrows "Goldie" from a music professor at West Chester University and they travel around the area - playing and healing.  Saturday afternoon more than 20 individuals gathered inat Yoga Inspired studio in Pitman, NJ for just this experience.  Madeleine offered us the stories of her life, her amazing harp playing and singing and a healing workshop as well!  We know so much about colors - or should I say colours?? and their significance in healing our lives.  so many of us have been blessed to experience Madeleine's beauty - within and without.

Meet Denise Ashcraft, the owner of Yoga Inspired studio on Broadway in Pitman, NJ.  It was here that Madeleine and a few 'able helpers' , carried Goldie to the second floor to entertain in the peaceful environment.  Denise was celebrating the first anniversary of the studio.  I remembered saying that I wanted to do yoga and I wanted it to be in Pitman.  Now remember synchronicities - I was walking downtown a few hours later, and for the first time noticed the Coming Soon sign for Yoga Inspired.  Now it is a year later - and Congratulations to Denise for bringing so much to the Pitman community!!

In the audience was Anna  - a fourteen year old - learning to play the harp and blessed with an aunt who brought her to the concert.  My joy was watching Anna watching Madeleine and just taking in so much information.  While we listened to Madeleine and learned so much of her life's adventures  - the joys and the struggles - I talked to Anna - and took in this lesson myself - we are always on the Journey of self discovery and everything and everyone we encounter along the way has lessons for us as we are also their teachers. For this we must always be grateful!!
