What muses live beyond the obligatory food gathering tune? Many communities already have a practice of singing to circle up for sharing meals, and many more are discovering the power of community singing to slow down, bring beauty, regulate nervous systems, and anchor visions of the more beautiful worlds we feel and dream.
Science tells us that singing together “alleviates anxiety and stress and lessens feelings of depression and loneliness.” History tells us singing together is the glue and heart of change-making social movements. Making music together is medicine for these times!
In this interactive workshop, we’ll sing!, and explore moments that are ripe to weave song into community life. Simple songs will be taught call-and-response (with participants muted because of lag), and ample space will be given to questions you might have has you imagine leading more song in your community.
Lyndsey enjoys living life as multimedia prayer. Educated as a painter, she spent a decade in St. Louis, MO experimenting with parades, photography, and participatory art as catalyst for community transformation. Encountering personal and collective trauma initiated a decade of inquiry into healing modalities, which led to a move back to her rural hometown in central IL. There she seeded restorative practices, including opening a small yoga studio, facilitating a permaculture garden for formerly incarcerated men, prioritizing mending with her family of origin, and teaching art at a juvenile detention center. Now she weaves creativity & healing together in ritual and song, by offering community song circles, ecstatic grief ritual, and group work aimed at dismantling internalized white supremacy and patriarchy. She currently leads song for Earthkeeper Wisdom School, supports the vision of her mentors at Holistic Resistance, and is recording an album of singalong mantra for the soul journey including her much beloved “You don’t have to know the way, the Way Knows the Way.”
Nothing pre-recorded here! When you sign-up for an event with FIC, you’ll have the opportunity to join a live session on Zoom with the event presenter/facilitator and other participants.
All our events are run on a sliding scale basis. Generous donations cover the costs for low-income attendees. FIC is committed to making our programs accessible to people of all walks of life.
You’ll receive the recording of your event to view for up to one month (unless otherwise noted). So don’t worry if you can’t attend a live session. Watch or listen whenever it is convenient for you.
What a beautiful gift to our intentional community builders and leaders! FIC’s programs provide a way for thinking and concerned people to collaborate for solutions to our multitude of global crises. Thank you FIC! – Terri Garcia
I am constantly impressed by the down-to-earth practicality of the FIC workshops combined with the philosophical questions that are so vital for us to explore. I’m grateful for the excellent planning and delivery of the workshops by skilled and inclusive presenters, who create a space that is both welcoming and invites participants to challenge existing ideas and world views. Well done and thank you FIC. – Claire Ogden
