Eternal Youth, A Natural Beauty Gift-For-Yourself Guide, Part 1 of 2


My favorite anti-aging beauty essentials ...


Eternal Youth ... What is the secret? Natural Spring Waters, Vegetables, Placenta Bars, Vampirism ... ? I have gathered together some of my absolute favorite beauty essentials into this article. For most of us ... humans ... aging is a part of the deal of life, part of being born. Don't let life stop you from being gorgeous and aging gracefully though. It is all about the tools, the wisdom and ... THE PRODUCTS!


I have been bombarded the last few months with questions about preserving youth, the natural way - without any injections, fillers or surgery. Many of you also were curious what beauty secrets and products I have been using religiously. One of my favorite anti-aging, beauty secrets is self-love and self-respect. When you love yourself, doors open for you that you did not even know existed. Drink lots and lots of the purest water possible. Get enough rest and if someone hooks you up with Idunn, take a bite of one of her apples. Here are some of my other favorite anti-aging, beauty tips and products in no particular order ...

Cal Ben Complexion Beauty Pure Soap™

Those who know me are quite aware of my natural, real soap addiction. Not all real "soaps" are created equal and usually if they are fabulous, the price reflects it. I have been using Cal Ben bar soap for years, ever since I heard it advertised one day on Alex Jones. Super cheap, long-lasting and completely amazing, Cal Ben Beauty bar soap is some of the purest available. It smells absolutely delicious, like sweet almond essential oil. Those of you who are aware of the Jafra Royal Almond line ... It smells like that. Yes, that good. It does not have any of the dangerous chemicals that detergents (AKA - fake soaps, beauty bars, moisturizing bars, big company local grocery bars) contain.


It makes my skin look and feel super clean, giving me beautiful, natural skin. I even use it on my face, as it works much better than any "fake soap" ever could. When your skin is being cleaned by soap that is clean, you know that you are doing something right. You literally can see the difference in your skin because when your wash with clean, pure soap it stimulates your skin's own cellular reproduction process. Cleansing the skin with a pure, clean soap is essential to anti-aging. Many of the "fake soap" chemicals can actually cause you to age. Scary, isn't it. Cal Ben soap does not strip your skin, so it stays soft and leaves no drying alkali residue on your face and body after rinsing.

If you are a fan of real soap bars, you might be aware of how short-lasting they can be. This is not the case with Cal Ben bar soaps. They outlast every single hard soap bar I have ever used - period. Okay, so I have you convinced that this is a fabulous soap right? It gets even better ... Cal Ben has been making soap since 1947. It has won awards and is made with the highest grade of white tallow and pure cocoa butter oils, along with natural extracts of almond, coconut and citrus. Cal Ben products are not tested on animals, packaged with concern for the environment and family owned and operated.

It gets even better ... They are super cheap! Complexion Beauty “Pure Soap™” - 12-Bar pkg. $21.00 24-Bar pkg. $34.00 36-Bar pkg. $45.00 100-Bar pkg. $106.00

Thank you Cal Ben Soap Company! - You really are a five star company!!! For more information or to place an order, please visit https://www.calbenpuresoap.com.

MacroLife Naturals Super Reds, Super Greens & Food Bars

If you want to age gracefully, you have to be sure to eat properly, supplement and get adequate nutrition. The health food market is completely saturated and there are literally thousands upon thousands of products available these days. I have devoted a lot of time and research to the subject, as It is extremely important for me to feed my family and myself to optimal health and wellness. I am very passionate about what I put in my belly ...

Derma e® Peptides Plus Wrinkle Reverse Serum

Derma e® has been making natural body care products for nearly 25 years. This family owned and operated company has a complete line of natural products that are paraben-free, 100% vegetarian and cruelty-free. They have over 90 different products for every skin condition I can think of and hold an outstanding reputation. The products that I have tried by Derma e® have been beyond incredible, especially the two that I am sharing today.



The Derma e® Peptides Plus Wrinkle Reverse Serum gives my skin a smooth, healthy glow. This product is simply phenomenal. You can literally see the results within the first few days. It is not greasy the way many serums can be and can even be used on oily skin. It smooths away wrinkles, improves tone, relaxes the facial muscles, helps the skin restructure and improves elasticity, while discouraging any new ones from forming. It does not break my "acne-prone" skin out - Hallelujah! ... and makes my skin appear dewy and youthful.

The directions say to use serum alone or in combination with other products, under moisturizer and make-up, day or night. I usually use this serum during the day, not at night. I have some different creams that I wear when sleeping. I do not need to use moisturizer in addition, although many times I do anyhow, just because I love moisture. The price for two completely amazing fluid ounces is $43.50. I will let you thank me later ... You will want to!

Derma e® Hyaluronic & Pycnogenol Eye Creme

Your eyes are important and so are the issues that can sometimes keep them from not looking their absolute best. If you are not careful things like dark circles, dryness, puffiness and wrinkles can sneek up on you. The skin around the eyes is one of the most delicate and sensitive areas on your face, requiring special care. Actually, the skin around your eyes is some of the thinnest and most delicate skin on your whole body and it ages the fastest. This is why eye cream is a must.



Finding an eye cream that does it all, doesn't break the bank and is made with the purest, most natural, healthy ingredients can certainly send you on a long, cold journey for a few years at least. Well, I am going to shed some sunlight on all the pretty Derma e® faces out there. This eye cream does it all. It contains two key ingredients, Hyaluronic and Pycnogenol, along with other nourishing skin vitamins, such as vitamins C, E and A. Trust me ... It works. My mama always taught me that when I find something and it works ... stick with it. I never let a day go by without using this cream. I absolutely love it. The cost is $19.50 for a half of an ounce ... Not bad at all. It usually lasts me about two months.

Kneipp Message Oil

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE KNEIPP ...

Did I mention that I Love Kneipp. I have not tried a product by this company that I have not added to my gift-for-myself list or my "Christmas Gift List" for family and friends. Kneipp has some of the best lotions, oils, bath salts and potions available.

Kneipp products are more than just really awesome natural and safe bath and beauty products. As most "Loves" in life, it is deeper than that. Kneipp formulas and recipes are based on holistic, herbal remedies. Kneipp products do more than make your life more beautiful, smell more magical and raise your vibrational levels, they are actually healing. Did I mention that their products are all natural ...



They use absolutely no preservatives (e.g. Parabens), no paraffin, silicone and mineral oils, no animal-derived ingredients, no material with a high sensitization potential and never test on our animal friends.

Stress relief is essential to preventing depression, burnout and premature aging. Who doesn't love a good massage. If done right it is truly one of the joys in life, not to mention it is healing on every level. Nothing says "I Love You" like a good massage either, a gift unlike any other. Kneipp Arnica Warming Massage Oil is one of life's pleasures that your special someone will look forward to coming home to, along with your sweet heart of course. Arnica was one of Sebastian Kneipp's favorite medicinal herb, as it helps to improve circulation, relieve pain and reduce redness.

I also love to massage with Lavender Herbal Massage Oil. Lavender is one of my favorite essential oils, a scent that is relaxing and stress relieving alone. The therapeutic scent of lavender is said to lift the spirits, balance the emotions and strengthen the entire system, creating focus, energy and stamina. Sounds like this oil would make a great aphrodisiac ...

The Lavender Herbal Message Oil also contains jojoba oil and sweet almond oil, both extremely moisturizing. This oil really takes a good massage to the highest level. Apply oil and add little pressure and the message practically happens by itself.

Eternal Youth, A Natural Beauty Gift-For-Yourself Guide, Part 2

Eternal Youth, A Natural Beauty Gift-For-Yourself Guide, Part 1 of 2

My favorite anti-aging beauty essentials ...



Kneipp Herbal Bath

Bavarian priest, hydrotherapist and naturopath Sepastion Kneipp (1821-1897) devoted his entire life to the healing properties of water, herbalism and holistic health. He is believed to be the "father" of modern hydrotherapy, known as the "Waterdoctor from W rishofen".

Kneipp Herbal Baths are completely amazing ... natural, healthy, loaded with pure essential oils and perfect for stress relief. Warm baths are extremely healing on many levels, contributing to lasting relaxation and well-being. These are not bubble baths, although sometimes I wish they were, but rather they focus on the healing attributes of the oils and the water. You only need a capful, the effect is subtle, but effective. As you inhale the essential oils through the steam and absorb them through the bath, they begin to do their magic.

Kneipp has many different choices when it comes to bath products. I have not tried them all but the ones that I have tried I absolutely love. My husband and I are both completely addicted to the Valerian & Hops Sleep Well Bath & Pure Bliss Bath.

The Valerian & Hops Sleep Well Herbal Bath is one of my favorite Kneipp products. It has a "medicin-ee" kind of scent to it that I have become quite fond of. It is used to induce a deep, restorative sleep, relaxation and cure insomnia. Deep sleep is essential for health, well-being and aging gracefully.

The Kneipp Pure Bliss Bath is another favorite. It has a relaxing and gentle scent. This bath contains hemp and poppy, never failing to make me giggle, perhaps a subconscious response to such a blissful blend. Be careful not to fall asleep in the tub, as I have several times with this bath. I never want to get out and I find myself "nodding off". I meditate deeply with this bath - immediately.

Kneipp Jasmine & Argan Oil Body Lotion

I have tried so many different kinds of lotions on the market and my absolute favorite brand of lotion is Kneipp. They are a thick, non-greasy, quick-absorbing moisturizer that always smell delightful. Recently I tried the Jasmine & Argan Oil Body Lotion. I LOVE Jasmine, beyond description, so naturally I was excited to give it whirl. As I expected I was more than happy with it. It has a sweet, exotic and floral scent that is not too strong, more on the subtle side. It also protects the skin from pre-mature aging.

 Argan oil in huge demand these days because it is known to reverse the signs of aging, along with being extremely nourishing and fabulous for the skin. It is known to be great for removing stretch marks, wrinkles and crow’s feet and also helping diminish scars and bad marks on skin. Rich with Squalene, it helps protect your skin from free radicals that cause sun damage. Clinical studies prove it's ability to correct the age-related deficiencies that cause wrinkling and loss of elasticity. Argan oil is extracted out of raw seeds of Argan tree. Its seeds are preserved inside the hard nut of Argan fruit.

Jasmine essential oil soothes the nerves, producing a feeling of confidence, optimism and euphoria, while revitalizing and restoring energy. It also increases elasticity and is often used to assist with stretch marks and to reduce scarring. Jasmine oil has great value for treating severe depression, eases childbirth, is beneficial with sexual problems, on the respiratory tract, for muscle pain and for toning the skin.

Sexy, alluring and age-defying - I cannot get enough Jasmine & Argan Oil Body Lotion. It also comes in a body oil and body wash. I would love to try these soon.

Healthy Surprise Monthly Club

The Healthy Surprise Club is addicting, making it so easy to stay healthy & happy, adding to energy levels and longevity. Much life extension research focuses on diet, nutrition, vitamins and supplements, as a means to extend the lifespan. There is some controversy about this, but one things remains agreed upon - Eat Healthy! Everything from your your hair, your heart and skin to the thoughts you have are all built from the food you eat. You want to eat the best food possible. In our fast paced life this can get difficult, especially if you enjoy food.

When I found this club i was both excited, yet hesitant. Excited because I love good food, especially health food; hesitant because not all health food tastes as yummy as I would like for it to. The club is basically a healthy snacks club, delivered to your door every month. I have been so happy with the snacks so far. They are all so delicious and my husband and I have fun reading the ingredients while eating them.

The importance of healthy eating cannot be stressed enough. This is one of the best clubs for making it easy to do so, especially if you like to keep your diet interesting. The boxes are packed with each month with full-sized snacks. It is so hard to find good healthy snacks. They are expensive and you never know if they’re going to taste good. I look forward to receiving the package. This is such a great way to try new snacks that I normally would not buy. All the snacks are natural, organic when available, vegan, dairy and gluten free and are free of any chemicals. It is difficult enough to find products like this. This is more than a club. It is a service to human-kind ...

The box is also very well-balanced, some sweet, some salty and even a little spicy. They send a very nice variety of snacks. You can really tell how much this company cares about what they are doing. They take great pride in their boxes and in customer service.

Completely Vegan, no animals were harmed making any of the snacks contained in each box.

Prices per month vary, from $33 to $333 a month, depending on the size of the box. You can cancel anytime, although you most likely will not want to.

Freeze 24-7® IceCream Double Scoop Intensive Anti-Aging Moisturizer

The name of this company says so much. Frozen in time, and ageless continuously - day and night. Have you ever had an old flame surprise you with a visit or a friend whose always competing need you ASAP, past daylight saving time, in the middle of a peaceful sleep? If you are looking to leave a great impression, and need to look your absolute best in an instant, Freeze 24-7 has got your back. Freeze 24-7® products are not tested on animals and contain no animal by-products. Freeze 24?7® incorporates the latest innovations in anti-aging skincare solutions.



Let me start with the IceCream Double Scoop by saying that it is beautifully packaged, just like I feel when I use it. This is a really thick and creamy moisturizer that I find to be quite lovely. While it diminishes expression line formations and smooths away wrinkles, it is also shielding the skin from oxidative stress and UVA/UVB rays and fighting free radical damage and oxidative stress with L-Carnosine & Green Tea Extract. It is luxurious and deeply moisturizing. I feel like a women of immense abundance every time I use it. You really have to try it to know what I mean. It makes my skin so soft and supple, making it look youthful and dewy. I glow and I know it.

Unfortunately this product contains parabens, which are a type of synthetic preservative that can prove irritating to sensitive users and may actually contribute to Cancer. It is also expensive, $105.00 for 1.7ounces

Freeze 24-7® Freeze & Go Instant Smoother and Brightener

This product is awesome. It keeps me looking gorgeous, youthful and flawless. First off it minimizes my pores, something that I really feel I need to look my best. It plumps my skin up and makes my complexion look very healthy. It is age-defying being that it reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while plumping the skin up and defending skin against free radicals and environmental aggressors, including pollution. My foundation goes on more smoothly and evenly when I use it and stays "fresh" looking longer, much like a primer. Celebrity makeup artists everywhere stress the importance of priming. I feel fabulous when I use this, absolutely gorgeous ...

The only down side to the Freeze 24-7® Freeze & Go Instant Smoother and Brightener is that it has a very long ingredient list, containing parabens and all sorts of "difficult to pronounce" ingredients. It does work though and although I do not use it all the time, if I am in a hurry or away from home it has the power to "glamify" my day in a moments notice. The cost of 20ml is $70.00.

Bulgarian Rose Moisturizer

A Rose is a delicate flower in need of care.

Bulgarian Rose Moisturizer rocks. I love the scent of roses. Rose is the Queen of the flowers, an exquisite symbol of absolute beauty, grace and pure, unconditional Love. Roses have been known to hold a key to beauty and youth since ancient times. Bulgarian Rose Moisturizer is luxurious indeed. The purest distilled rose oil to enhance the anti-aging benefits. The care they put into this moisturizer shows. The scent is simply divine, lifting my vibration and my spirits every time I apply it. I love how soft my skin feels and how beautiful my skin looks with daily use. This moisturizer fights free radical damage and has SPF 15 to help protect from further sun damage. It also has anti-aging properties that stimulate collagen production and helps reduce wrinkles.


I intuitively know I am doing something very good for my skin when I use rose ...

Review: Freeing The Waters, Paul Hertzog

Paul Hertzog, an 80's film composer, known for films such as Bloodsport and Kickboxer, has released a new album.  Never underestimate the power of a great film score or the music of a genius.  The score of a movie brings the film to life, an often crucially important element in cinema that is overlooked.  A great music soundtrack helps to tell the story in a cinematic picture.  Paul's music has influenced an entire genre of martial art film music.  I still listen to the brilliant film scores of both Kickboxer and Bloodsport.  They inspire me to do great things - GREAT THINGS!  Hertzog has released a collection of tracks he recorded back in the 80's never before heard by the public.  He was doing synth way back when it all began ... and when it was a lot more difficult than it is these days.  Syth composers got it made in this millennium, thanks to those who paved the road before them ... people like Paul Hertzog. 

If you are a die-hard film fan of Bloodsport or Kickboxer (featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme), Freeing The Waters is a must-have.  In fact, you may want to read this article later and run out and purchase a CD.  They are limited to 1000 so you will want to hurry.  The first 100 CDs will be autographed by the composer.  Visit Perseverance Records.

Freeing the Waters, a 10-track album, is a collection of previously unreleased tracks written during Paul Hertzog's years as a film composer.  The entire album is bubbling to the brim with mood and setting, immediately building atmosphere with layers of emotive sounds.  The work elicits such emotion, invoking a rich tapestry of life experiences, while managing to stay intense, meaningful and structured throughout.  Hertzog paints with sound.  His ability to captivate and add emotional resonance while relaying sensitivity and bounded restraint in fervent waves is amazing.  Freeing The Waters displays elaborate texture and vivid colors with a twist around every corner.  Some songs take you up, some take you down and some to places you never even knew you wanted to go ... until you are there and you can't help but play that track again and again.  


The album begins with twinkling, celestial sounds that transport the listener to another place and time, where there is magic, merit and starlight.  Track two, has a certain familiar quality about it, resembling some of the tracks from the Kickboxer score.  This song reminds me of the long road of life and how without courage and restriction, you may never make it through the gateway at the end of the Fool's Journey.  Track three is a little more mellow, yet deeply emotional, displaying many layers of the human heart and the suffering that occurs from the love that also gives us so much pleasure. 
 

Track 4 is one of my favorites, as it has a fun element yet pulls great strength and courage to the surface of my being ... making me question my motives and begging me to make the right choice.  It also has a quality about it that reminds me of some of the best role-playing (rpg) video games ... the kind that takes you on a spiritual quest.  The song itself is much like a journey, through the thick and thin of life and of the soul.  You have no choice but to stand up or stand down, because the invocation within this song demands it.  Mercy or Severity? - It is all up to you!  

Track 5 slows down the pace a little bit, with moments of magic dust that put you into a place of deep woods mediation.   Moving forward with track 6, the listener goes even deeper into an emotional trance, resonating with the waters of the great Sea while journeying into the depth of the watery and intuitive self.  Track 7 pulls the listener back out of the subconscious, into consciousness and ... well, ... dancing and bopping the head around.  Wow, this songs sexy!  Track 8 is a sparkly and magical, overflowing cup of love, laced with stardust from heaven.  The climatic and debut titled track, lucky number 9 is the opening of the damn ... where the waters finally find freedom, no longer stagnant, rather oceanic and filled with life.  I cannot express my love for this album enough. 

The inspirational music of Paul Hertzog is infused with the quality and characteristic of a musician who pains and obsesses over the details and design of the final product.  This album is completely remarkable and pleasurably intense.  I do hope some of these tracks find there way into a film score, as they would make an excellent musical film accompaniment.  The tracks on Freeing The Waters would compliment many great screenplays, easily crafting a film’s most memorable moments and helping to create a killer soundtrack. 

Highly recommend!!!

I hope to see more work from Paul in the future.  This guy is amazing.  For more information, or to order please visit Perseverance Records.

Review: Sacred Love Meditations Mirabai Ceiba

Mirabai Ceiba is a duo consisting of guitarist/singer Markus Sieber and singer/harpist/keyboardist Angelika Baumbach. They come from different parts of the world. Markus is East German. Angelika was born in Tucson, Arizona, and grew up in a small village near Mexico City, the daughter of a Mexican mother and German father.  Markus and Angelika first met at a street fair at Scotland’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival and quickly fell in love. Markus was pursuing a successful acting career at the time, and Angelika was touring the world as a singer/songwriter. But the newly formed couple decided to share their love with the world through uplifting music steeped in spirituality, tenderness and beauty. Together, Angelika and Markus have forged engaging new style of world devotional music blending Gurmukhi mantras from the Kundalini Yoga tradition with original songs in English and Spanish that reflect a Native American influence and also draw words of wisdom from Rumi, Thich Nhat Hanh, Guru Nanak and Yogi Bhajan.

Music for lovers, Sacred Love Meditations by the duo Mirabai Ceiba is a gorgeous collection of songs that focus on love.  The voices of both Angelika and Markus interweave throughout the album, along with the music, a deeply symbolic gesture of the unity between them.  The delicate sounds of harp, piano, and guitar blend with their voices amid lush celestial soundscapes. The meditations use the ancient technology of Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan to help each one of us access a sacred space within to allow us to communicate from soul to soul and establish communication on a deeper level which may bring light and healing into our relationships.

Review: A Thousand Suns, The GuruGanesha Band

The music of the GuruGanesha Band is drawn from many sources—raga, gospel, rock, folk, even a touch of the blues. In performance, these myriad musical tributaries merge in a glistening, flowing river of sound. Much of their material is drawn from GuruGanesha’s 2011 album Kundalini Surjhee, but the band has also begun to incorporate some brand new compositions into its live performances. Their creativity seems as boundless as their onstage Kundalini energy.

The group is led by world devotional music pioneer GuruGanesha Singh, renowned for his work with singers Snatam Kaur, Tina Malia and Nirinjan Kaur; widely respected as the founder of Spirit Voyage records. An avuncular figure in turban, kurta and long white beard, GuruGanesha handles his guitars with easygoing mastery, bouncing trippy, inventive, melodic leads off the ceiling and casting polyrhythmic glitter all over the grooves. Grounding the GuruGanesha Band’s joyous earth beat are tabla ace Daniel Paul, a seasoned world percussion dynamo and first-rate harmony vocalist, and bassist Gurusangat Singh, a soulful jazzman with an exceptionally supple feel and cosmic connection to the supreme groove. Spicing the beat like a expert fusion chef is rhythm guitarist/backing vocalist Sat Kartar Singh, old friend, highly accomplished yogi and dapper counterpart to GuruGanesha. The deeply sympathetic way in which Sat Kartar blends his voice and guitar with those of GuruGanesha bespeaks an understatedly high level of musicianship and a lifelong brotherhood.  The GuruGanesha Bands’s rainbow tapestry of sonic hues is magnificently enriched by multi-instrumentalist Hans Christian, who performs on cello, sarangi, sitara and nyckelharpa (Swedish keyed fiddle). Combining ancient instruments with modern electronics, he casts a potent spell with looped waves of shimmering beauty that echo into infinity. And then there’s Michelle Hurtado, the GuruGanesha Band’s divinely enchanting singer. Her unforgettable performances combine heartrending beauty, vocal virtuosity and a sense of total surrender to Spirit. Seated at a harmonium, dressed in flowing garments and gossamer shawl, she commands center stage like a present-day incarnation of Saraswati, goddess of music, art and wisdom.

A Thousand Suns puts my heart into a peaceful state ... connecting to the love of the world.  Very spiritual ... I would love to see them live.  For more information, please visit Spirit Voyage.

Review: Sacred Spirit Drums, David & Steve Gordon

Sacred Spirit Drums is follow-up to the best-seller Sacred Earth Drums, another incredible album by David and Steve Gordon.

Sacred Spirit Drums will take you to deep places within, serving as a guide on the shamanic road of truth and wisdom.  An amazing, sensual experience ... hypnotic ... with an exceptional display of talent.  It is fun to drum along with, especially if you are a drummer yourself.  

 Sacred Spirit Drums is the perfect blend of drumming, mixed with Native American flute, nature sounds and Incan pan pipes. 


Great for yoga, meditation, parties or simply to create a great atmosphere at home.  Highly Recommended!!!

Review: Celestial Zen, David & Steve Gordon

Supe-up your space ship. We are going into space ...


Celestial Zen, David & Steve Gordon

There are a few things in life I can count on. The first, my husband will always be by my side. The second, all great challenges bring great rewards and third, David & Steve Gordon always make great music. When I see their names, I know the album will be a good one.

Proving my point, Celestial Zen (Sequoia Records 2012) will have you packing your meditation space bags, boarding the astral plane of fifth-dimension-existence. Prepare yourself for intergalactic communications with angels, entities, spirits and maybe even an alien or two. You will reach further dimensions of your mind, places that you did not even knew existed. So get ready for a spaced-out trip into the heavens. Here comes Celestial Zen ...

Esoteric Stars Of The Soul

Modular sequencers, bass, acoustic and electric guitars and analog synthesizers dance together in harmonic delight, sparking to life the esoteric stars of the soul. I get lost within myself, a place of serenity, quiet and innate knowing that life is but a dream ... a good dream.

Originally recorded all the way back in 1984 under the name /Celestial Suite,/ this is the first time that it has been available on CD. Ambient space-music, ahead of its time thirty years ago, /Celestial Zen/ will have you exploring your inner space on a golden path of mind-expansion, connecting with the interior stars and the exterior stars simultaneously. Super-consciousness never felt so natural ...

Bathe in a shower of starlight ...

Take a musical journey through inner and outer space. Experience a joyful shower of bright-white, gold, silver and rainbow colored stars, while riding waves of relaxation and blissfulness.

Celestial Zen is perfect for yoga, meditation, soothing the young ones to sleep or to quickly relax and let go.

To get a taste of Celestial Zen or to purchase, please visit Sequoia Records.
