Valerie June: Harmonizing Mindfulness and Music
“I have times in my life where I'll take A Week Or Two Weeks and I'll go into silence and I will stay there. The way you're breathing and the way that the water is moving forward and coming backwards, the tide's coming high and the tide coming low, and listening to that, it is the opening to what we have in the inner world through our breath.”
What happens when a soulful singer-songwriter combines her musical journey with mindfulness? Valerie June, known for her unique blend of folk, blues, gospel, and more, sits down with Richard 'Wolfie' Wolf to share her story. In this episode of 'Wolf In Tune', Valerie opens up about the emotional highs and lows of touring and how mindfulness practices like meditation and breathwork keep her grounded.
She dives into the significance of gratitude, the power of mantras, and the importance of silence in connecting with her inner self. Richard and Valerie also tackle the 'Four Horsemen of the Musical Apocalypse': depression, anxiety, suicidality, and addiction, offering valuable insights into managing these challenges through mindfulness. Whether you're a musician or simply a music lover, this episode offers a heartfelt look at how mindful living can harmonize your life.
