Meditation & Harp

Hello. It’s been a while…

Hello. It’s been a while since we chatted. I imagine you have a few questions…

Cymber Lily Quinn, Harpist, Teacher, Hilo, HawaiiQ: What have you been up to lately? What are you harping on?

Last year was a big year for me. I spent a lot of time working on boring, difficult but technically necessary projects, including adding a store to my website for the first time, and experimenting more with social media.

All of that work meant that I had to put creating new music on the back burner for longer than I wanted to. And performing less than I wanted, as well. But I want you to have a wonderful experience with my music, all my marketing was way overdue for an upgrade.

Q: How’s Hawaii treating you?

The transition back to Hawaii has been just about as good as it could be. I have a really cute upstairs studio in downtown Hilo where I teach in the afternoons. I’ve been performing the Queen’s music, and getting ready – equipment wise – to play out more. I need a Gig Assistant for local gigs, if you know someone. And I’m still working on getting the word out more about my music…I’d love your help with that. Share my posts and vides?

Cymber Lily Quinn, Harpist, Teacher, Hilo, HawaiiQ: What about the World? How are you feeling about all that?

As a Taoist, I tried to see the good and bad in everything. As concerned as I am about the dehumanizing actions I see happened all around the globe, I also feel a great hope, especially when I think about the younger generation. I see them already taking action to bring love, peace and harmony back to the forefront of our thinking.

Q: How do you help the younger generation?

At this point in my life, I feel that my best choice is to teach and play music. If I can inspire children and adults to express themselves creatively and freely, then they are much less likely to be shackled in society as well. As a life-long teacher, I know that it only takes the right word, the right moment – which I may never know at all – to propel a student into a positive life that will change their life, and of necessity, change the life of those around them. How far the ripples of my teaching and music will reach, I will never know.

Q: What’s next in your music? Do you have new music coming out soon?

Yes! In fact, I just released a harp meditation version of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” last week. I hope you find it relaxing. You can download that for free on my blog>>>here…

I’ll be adding songs by piano dudes Billy Joel, Elton John and Bruce Hornsby. I’m looking for songs that make great meditations and also reference harps. If you have favorite piano or harp songs, let me know. When I have collected 11-14 songs, I’ll release them all as a CD, and the free downloads won’t be free anymore…

Q: What about the Christmas/Holiday CD?

I know, I know. I’ve been promising a holiday CD for a while now. I’m starting with “O Holy Night,” which I am recording right now. I’ll post it soon.

Keep in touch and let me know what you’d like to hear…lots of new music is in the cooker!

How to Move Peacefully into Winter

Here in the Northern Hemisphere, we are entering the season of Winter. The Solstice on December 21, tomorrow, marks the shortest day of the year and welcomes the longest night. It’s at this time of the year that I encourage my listeners to slow down, breathe and take stock of their year.

Winter is the end. And the beginning. To unify with winter, look for ways to emphasize receptivity and introspection:

  • Nap in the afternoon and listen for cheerful voices in the kitchen.
  • Allow the outer weather to cool the surface of the body, while reflection and introspection warm your spiritual core.
  • Create time to rest and practice deep reflection and meditation.
  • Strengthen your listening skills.
  • Recharge your batteries.
  • Enjoy the stillness.
  • Eat a few salty foods.
  • Listen to harp meditations

About “Winter” from the award-winning CD, Seasons of the Soul

I composed “Winter” harp meditation music with Five Elements Traditional Chinese Medicine in mind. I incorporated chi balancing concepts of the chillier months including peaceful stillness and the element of water.

This is a season of deep yin and strengthens the kidney and bladder systems. Ears, bones, and adrenal glands also find rest and healing this time of year, if you stop and allow them to rebalance.

I used Pentatonic and Mixolydian music to represent the stillness, the quiet that comes after a snowfall, and the drops dripping from icicles the next day.

Enjoy this free track from Seasons of the Soul, and find your easy transition into Winter.
