Warm greetings, dear Friend!
Wherever you are on this beautiful planet of ours,
I hope that you’re well and happy. 🙏🏻

In December’s newsletter, I mentioned that I’d like us to share “tools” / (spiritual) practices with each other this year that help us to access JOY (my word/theme for 2025).

In January, I wrote about SILENCE.

This month, the tool/practice that I’d like to share with you is SPACE.

I’ve written before about how much I enjoy de-cluttering my physical space, and about how doing so allows wonderful shifts on other levels (emotional, mental, and spiritual.) Over the past 8 weeks, I felt inspired to dive into that process more deeply than I ever have – this time, focussing on de-cluttering my actual desktop (of CDs, books, business cards, and messages scribbled on post-it notes) as well as my computer’s desktop (of hundreds of old e-mail messages, documents, photos, videos, and recordings).

Now completed, I’m noticing that this deeper dive is already “yielding good fruit” – including increased patience and confidence, clarity of thought, and inner peace. wooHOO! YES, YAY and AMEN!

My invitation to you this month is to create SPACE in your life in whatever ways most resonate with you – big or small – physically, emotionally, mentally and/or spiritually – and to let me know what unfolds. I wish you JOY with the process!

In keeping with this month’s theme of SPACE, I offer you two of my chants/songs for the soul: Emptying and In This Space. May they serve you well!

How about YOU, dear Friend? Does this month’s theme resonate with you? What “tools” / (spiritual) practices would YOU like to share this month? WHEREVER you are on your journey, I would love to hear from you. Please e-mail me; we’re all in this together, and we have much to learn from each other. 

(THANKS for being a part of my journey, and SPECIAL THANKS to all of the kind souls who respond to my newsletters; reading your comments is always a highlight of my month.)

And, as always…
You can listen to my songs and chants here and here.
You can find the words to my songs and chants here.
You can buy my CDs here.

UPCOMING AND ONGOING EVENTS

I’m blessed with many opportunities to share my words and music; I perform as a solo artist for many churches in both Canada and the U.S. (in person and online), at local “kirtans” (chanting evenings), and at many local retirement homes. I also perform in many local musical groups. 

For more detailed information on any of my performances, please click on any date in my online calendar. And if I can serve YOU in any way with my words and music, please know that it would be my great pleasure to do so! 

All of my music can be enjoyed any time on my YouTube channel, and I would really appreciate it if you were to visit it and then click on “Subscribe”. (And if you’re a Facebook user, I would really appreciate it if you were to “Like” my Fan Page and then click on “Following”.) Thanks so much!

As a very dear and wise friend in Montreal once said to me, “All I can offer you is my experience”.

My sincere desire, in every one of my newsletters, is to encourage us all to live our Big Lives one Small Step at a time.

Much love to you, dear Friend!
I bless you on your journey,
and I wish you Ease and Grace and JOY
in living your Fullest Expression.

Go with Love,
– Nathen
