Songs are alive and when you sing\u00a0you<\/i>\u00a0become more fully alive. In this course you\u2019ll sing many songs and feel your energy flow<\/p>\n

With her trademark joy and pizzaz Barbara McAfee makes singing easy and natural again.\u00a0 She invites you to explore your history, wounds, gifts, and dreams around using your voice to sing. She wants you to claim song as your birthright. She\u2019ll show you how to make singing part of your daily practice and how to use songs as a gift to the world and yourself.<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t need to know anything about music to sing with Barbara. Her enthusiasm carries the tune to even the so-called tone deaf. She uses the oral tradition of call and response, so there\u2019s no written score or lyrics.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll learn songs that are handy to have around the house or in your pocket. This collection of songs will help you greet the day, get your mojo working, express gratitude, bless your meals, comfort a friend, play and pray. An extensive resource packet provides links to many more singable songs.<\/p>\n

The homeplay exercises will give you ways to reflect and stretch through your relation to song. As a special bonus Barbara invites you to send her an email about what you\u2019re discovering through the exercises. She will respond to every one who writes to her!<\/p>\n

Barbara shares a brief vocal warmup in each class. People who\u2019ve taken Barbara\u2019s \u201cFind Your Voice\u201d course will recognize these 5 minute warm ups from her Five Elements Framework. The rest of the \u201cSongs of the Soul\u201d course is new content focused on singing.<\/p>\n

So pick up your song again. Sing with Barbara through laughter, joy, fear, tears, and blessed imperfection. The whole world is singing to you, why not sing back?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Course Overview:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Class 1.\u00a0<\/b>Song as Birthright<\/b><\/p>\n

Singing is a natural human response to being alive, but many of us don\u2019t think we can sing. As a way to remember singing as our birthright, Barbara encourages us to get playful, cultivate pleasure and offer our shaky songs to the divine.<\/p>\n

In this class Barbara teaches two songs to greet the morning, a fun meal blessing improvisation, and two songs to welcome the evening.<\/p>\n

Warmups open the singing and homeplay exercises close the class.\u00a0Send your experiences with the exercises to Barbara and she\u2019ll get back to you!<\/p>\n

Class 2.\u00a0<\/b>Song as Practice<\/b><\/p>\n

In this class Barbara reminds us that singing has vitamins to feed all aspects of your life. It improves how you move through your day.<\/p>\n

Barbara teaches us a snappy song for riding your bike or any rhythmic\u00a0 activity.<\/p>\n

She also shares a song of comfort that we can sing to someone who\u2019s struggling, whether they\u2019re present or not. She conveys the power of song to help people on the threshold of death to be at peace. We see how the nuances of song can help maintain the connection with loved ones who\u2019ve passed.<\/p>\n

Barbara shares her own happy song to send someone off on a new adventure in life. And another original song to help transition from an inner, meditative place to outer activity.<\/p>\n

Again, there\u2019s a brief warmup before the songs, and a juicy homeplay exercise. Barbara wants to hear from you about how your homeplay is going. If you care to, let her know!<\/p>\n

Class 3.\u00a0<\/b>Song as Gift<\/b><\/p>\n

In this class Barbara presents song as a gift to yourself, to others, to the world at large. She teaches a simple song to use as a gift to place, and the ancestors who walked there.<\/p>\n

Barbara urges us to offer her \u201cBetter Birthday Song\u201d as a gift to the birthday boy or girl, rather than the standard dirge we all know and dread.<\/p>\n

Barbara conveys her experience with the Morning Star Singers, and how the group gifted songs to people in hospice care. She shines through a moving song she wrote for a friend who was dying. We see and hear how singing adds beauty, vulnerability and risk to a prayer, that makes it more potent and useful.<\/p>\n

Finally, Barbara will guide you in creating your very own mission song, a way to remember what you\u2019re doing here on this planet. Again, Barbara would love to read what you\u2019ve created and she\u2019ll respond to your email.<\/p>\n

The course closes with more ideas about how to bring singing into your everyday life.<\/p>\n

Class 4.\u00a0Last Class<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is your opportunity to tell Barbara \u201cin person\u201d about your experiences with singing during the live session. Compare notes and share feelings and questions that arose for you while learning new songs, doing the homeplay and creating your own song.\u00a0 Tell us what you learned about the joy of singing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
