Ruth Finlay: music teacher, musician, songwriter - Soul Song Singer. . .
I have a message for you. If you have a voice you can sing! Not only that - you have a song vibrating deep in your soul. You actually have many songs in you! Are you being called intuitively to sing? Are you wondering how to begin? Are you wanting support? You have come to the right place! Maybe you sang when you were very young and loved it, but something shut you down. Maybe someone you respected told you you couldn't sing. I am here to tell you that you can sing. You can follow your heart and jump back into music again. I have been a professional music teacher for 25 years. I believe that singing is an essential part of self expression. You now have the opportunity to fully retrieve and use your singing voice! And I go much deeper into singing than that. I teach my own unique methods which are designed to encourage, inspire and train you to sing with the voice you were gifted with. This voice is important and has its own expression of the divine. There is only one voice like yours and it is yours! The deepest song you can sing is in your soul and if you want to you can sing that song and many many more.
What people are saying:
"The Sing Your Soul Song Workshop with Ruth revealed a broken place in my body that, during the singing, opened up and released the pain. I immediately felt joy and liveliness. I wrote a beautiful poem which just poured out of me. My voice was loud and free and present in me. I felt liberated and completely free. I had not felt like that for several years. Everything just opened up! " Celeste Shirley, B.A. Kinesiology ,Toronto
"I am a professional singer but my singing was going through many challenges partially due to emotional trauma. My sessions in the Soul Song Workshop with Ruth helped me retrieve my voice and expand my range. I sing now with an open heart and experience creative freedom in my song writing. As I attend the workshops I get to know myself better.
In my individual session with Ruth I experienced healing. This energy healing and song healing session healed a deep place within me and I felt completely liberated. I felt as though I had connected with heaven. I went home floating in my own joy feeling like a new person. Thank you Ruth with all my heart." Cecilia Mandac, Musician, Entrepreneur, Mississauga
"My daughter and I enjoyed this very much. We were amazed at how beautiful our voices all blended together when we sang our soul songs. We were a choir of angels! I could find no words for my song. I simply felt like I was swimming in a rainbow of harmonies. So uplifting and peaceful. Thank you Ruth and everyone there for a wonderful evening. And, p.s. I've been singing today!" Kathleen Costello ,Teacher and Painter, Hamilton
Everyone came into this world with a Soul Song. Even those with no voice have their own unique expression of soul in dance or some other form unique to themselves. A Soul Song is a song that resonates with your whole being and emanates from the heart or the seat of the soul. It is the perfect song for you to express your joy, your love, your light, your longing, your life and your being in any moment. Everyone is an instrument - a living instrument. The human voice is capable of being the most attractive sound in the world. The voice can create sounds that express life in our world.
It is as if you have a well within you - a Soul-Song Well. Singing from that "Well" is the most powerful expression of the voice. We each have a song to express and share but there is only one you with your own unique song.
From this Soul-Song Well comes many forms of expression.
Singing from the well of Your Soul Song is not difficult. . . . But you may need a method to assist you in connecting with it and expressing it.
In the Sing Your Soul Song Group Sessions and Meditations you will have the opportunity to:
calm relax and clear your stress with EFT tapping.
breathe, and expand your lungs to support your voice
experience sound, colour and word chakra meditation
experience spontaneous group singing
feel and express your own melody and song
experience a quiet time of reflection and assimilation
access messages from your highest soul guidance
share your experience with the group if you so choose
practice at home with the Cd's or downloaded music created to support your voice work and daily meditation
Singing from the well of your Soul Song is not difficult. . . . .
In the Sing Your Soul Song Workshop we access music from our soul. That is why we go into deep sound meditation. The music, song, words or sometimes even dance that come forth are just one part of the huge symphony of you. Yes, you are a symphony of sound and only you have that particular symphonic sound. It is your Soul Song. We can create many songs from the "Well" of our Soul Song. This is a natural easy flowing gift for some of us. Others require some assistance to find their song. We do this with a method of practice.
In the Sing Your Soul Song Workshop we follow this practice and we find that we are creating from the "Well" of our souls.
We are able to heal our hearts through sound and song. We can also bring joy and ecstasy to ourselves in a natural way. By singing our soul song we expand our awareness and develop connections to the Soul World and with each other. Wejustfeel better!
