a sweet song to celebrate solstice


I was doing a little creepin' on facebook this morning and saw one of the girls from my YTT had mentioned this song, 'Long Time Sun'. This was a song that was played during savasana from time to time during my Yoga Teacher Training in Bali. So, I googled it and now have it on repeat. There are times in life and people who come along with it, that though brief, leave a profound mark. This, was one of those times. It's just over a year ago that I got to experience this and there is seriously not a day that goes where I don't think about it or my time in Indonesia in some way. There are days when my heart yearns to be back in the rice paddies surrounded by the greenest of greens and the sweet foreign sounds that filled our space. If I close my eyes and am just still enough, sometimes I can actually feel and smell the pulse in the air. This song helped to bring me back.


Enjoy :)





May the Long Time Sun
Shine upon you
All love surround you
And the pure light
within you
Guide your way on
Guide your way on

  1. I totally agree. I have two! "Shanti (Peace Out)" from MC Yogi's Omstrumental album and "Bliss" from the Putumayo Yoga CD compilation. I use both of these in my own classes for Savasanah and I find that listening to these always gives me the necessary nudge in times of need! Namaste :)
