This is my second episode with Brenda McMorrow! I'm so happy to have her back on the podcast. Brenda is a singer/songwriter, chant artist, and workshop/retreat facilitator whose greatest calling is to share experiences that support the opening of both the mind and the heart. Brenda is known for her unique and warmly embracing style of mantra music, in which she blends elements of acoustic folk, world rhythms and ancient Indian chants with a sweetly introspective singer-songwriter’s sensibility. Yoga Journal describes Brenda as having “a knack for expressing the deepest realizations in the sparsest lyrics”. As spiritual teacher Ram Dass has said: “Brenda has a gift”, and with 5 celebrated albums and numerous singles, her music has been touching people’s hearts across the planet (with over 13 million streams on Spotify alone). In addition to being a recording and world touring musician, Brenda McMorrow has degrees in both English Literature and Education; is a Registered Yoga Teacher and Enlightenment Intensive Facilitator (“Who Am I” Dyad Self Inquiry); and is a student and practitioner of Advaita Vedanta (Non-Duality) and Bhakti Yoga (Yoga of Love and Devotion). Brenda's mission is to help bring more peace, understanding and well-being to the world by supporting individuals in realizing their True Nature. https://www.brendamcmorrow.com IG: https://www.instagram.com/mcmorrowbrenda/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/brendamcmorrowkirtan/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/5ngrfMM3XlnPegLP67C7M7 Kirtan at Ram Dass' House on Maui: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q99ba_RK65g Coca Cola Documentary mentioned in our conversation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q99ba_RK65g -- ----------- ABOUT YOUR HOST: Porter Singer is music-maker, podcaster and emotional guide.  More info: https://portersinger.com/ ------------- MUSIC CREDITS:   INTRO: "Don't Worry, Be Happy (Instrumental)" by Porter Singer and Songs of Eden; OUTRO: "If You Want to Sing Out, Sing Out (Instrumental) by Porter Singer and Songs of Eden   ------------ WAYS TO SUPPORT THE PODCAST:   EARTH BREEZE LAUNDRY SHEETS ~ These Earth-friendly dehydrated laundry sheets will leave your clothes super clean, without the waste of bulky plastic containers.
