The first tune on the EP is titled

ELECTRIC HEART

**Heart coherence brings a greater inner stability.
A more effortless connection to what is truly important.
Cultivating heart coherence is part of cultivating your inner CLIFF**

Did you know that the electromagnetic field of the human heart reaches out far beyond the body? It is measurable by today’s available tools and therefore has been proven and accepted by the standards of current mainstream science.

But even without that outside validation I believe most of us are innately aware of the power of the heart. To me, the heart represents what it truly means to be human; Connecting to the wisdom of the heart is connecting to the wisdom of the universe. Connecting to the source.
Whether we consciously realize it or not,
we affect others around us, much similar to the way adjacent tuning forks affect eachother.
Everything is oscillating, and the vibration of our personal heart center matters.
When we consciously choose to be present with ourselves and others in a state that is connected to the heart, we bring more light to the world.

This whole EP came to me after a session of Network Spinal.
Network Spinal has put me in greater touch with my body-mind, my heart and my soul. It is one of the tools available to use to achieve heart coherence. Other tools could be yoga, meditation, vocal toning and spending time in nature. Anything that can put your body’s systems more in sync with eachother, so it’s easier to cut through the noise and connect directly to your higher self.

What would love do?”

For me, asking myself this question is such a simple and elegant way to connect to the wisdom of the heart.
Saying and doing what our heart truly feels, which - for me - is one way to define heart coherence, is what will move this world closer to truth.

Electric Heart is a love song.
It can be understood as both an eros and an agape vibe. To me, one of the most beautiful realizations open to us in this life is that agape love is always available.
It’s just a sprinkle of awareness plus a dash of a conscious choice away.
If you feel like you don’t have it, take the focus off of the limited version of yourself and try to give it to someone else, stepping into the larger version of you.

With that I’d like to close with a saying by Rabbi Menachem Mendel of Kotzk that I find to be true and beautiful: Only a broken heart is truly whole.
What does that mean?
To me, it means that we sometimes have to be cracked open or humbled to re-discover our connection to universal love. At the same time, I believe that we are moving into an era where we are remembering to choose love without being cracked open first.
We are, and will be even more, connected to our true essence, love, through our electric hearts.

Love is always available inside of you.
It’s the foundation of your inner CLIFF.

 

Tesla Lyric Video

 

Lyric-video of my tune ‘Tesla’ <3
He found answers when connected to the world of answers, not the world of questions.
⚡️
My brain is only a receiver; in the universe there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength and inspiration. I have not penetrated into the secrets of this core, but I know that it exists.
- Nikola Tesla

My new EP Cliff is out now!

Taking a chance on trusting the groove of life.
Trusting that following the true rhythm of one’s heart eventually leads to true wholeness.
It can be likened to leaping off a CLIFF.
A CLIFF is both rock solid and an opportunity for free fall.
These qualities compliment instead of contradict eachother.
The most beautiful revelation in life is when one realizes that one is supported at every stage;
Even when leaping from the tallest CLIFF, in the midst of a wondrous soar,
or what turns to be a disasterous fall,
the CLIFF is still there for you to hold onto;
Re-connected to the groove of life, you innately find that you yourself are rock solid in mid-air.
-Your total surrender allows you to discover a gateway to cultivate your inner CLIFF.-

Even though it has sometimes cost me my pride and equilibrium, I’m truly grateful for the times in my life when I have taken a chance and leaped off the CLIFF.
Whether it’s simply daring to disco on the dance floor to a beat that everyone else thinks is weird,
or inviting someone to dance with me only to get rejected.
The soars are sweet, and the crash-landings have sometimes broken my heart.
Each time I leap, I learn a lesson that brings me closer to wholeness.
This is especially true of the crash-landings.
I hope you will leap, and I hope you realize the gift it is to cultivate your inner CLIFF.
It takes putting yourself in an unprotected state.
Smiling and disco dancing along the journey makes it more fun.
I hope this EP will put a smile on your face and warm your soul.
A groovy companion to your CLIFF - leaping.
No fear. No regrets.
Just peace, love and disco.

Sway Hits 100k Streams

 

Glad to learn my rendition of Sway
is resonating with you.
Today it became my second tune to hit over 100 000 streams on Spotify.
This track was produced and mixed by me;
It was easy to do since my musicians played so creatively
and it was recorded so flawlessly by expert engineers.
A true and beautiful teamwork.
I also hope this can inspire you to do ‘it’ yourself - whatever ‘it’ is.
Sharing the project with others in the studio (and with you guys!)
really is the best feeling in the world,
and in order to get to those situations
the first impulse and step starts with one person.
Sometimes, that person is you!
Don’t ignore your creative impulses.
Don’t put your light under a bushel.
Share your light and
answer the call - someway, somehow - it’s there for a reason.
Listen to Sway via Spotify above, or via Apple Music HERE.
XO,
Seena

 

And The Grammy Goes To...

 

…My incredible collaborator and friend Steven Feifke! You may recognize him from my East Of The Sun video (below) which he made the most beautiful arrangement for, and is playing piano on.
He also arranged and played on my recording of Fly Me To The Moon (below).
Steven just won for his album with Bijon Watson and Generation Gap Jazz Orchestra.
It’s deeply moving to see someone with such dedication and love of craft achieve a huge milestone like this.
To me, the award is a symbol of the commitment to, and the unwavering trust in, the flow of the pure creative force.
Congratulations Steven! The first of many!

New Cover: Big Fish

 

Words can't describe this song...It’s stunning.
I discovered it while watching Big Fish & Begonia - an amazing film which I totally recommend.
Have tissues ready!
You can watch if for free on Youtube here.
The whole expression of this film and title-song seems to be from another world and higher level.
I have pasted the translated lyrics under the video on Youtube.

 

Tao Te Ching Chillstep Mix (Read By Wayne Dyer)

One of my favorite books that I was lucky to stumble upon over a decade ago is Change Your Thoughts Change Your Life: Living The Wisdom Of The Tao by Wayne Dyer. Therefore I was super excited to find that someone has made a Chillstep Mix with bits from the audiobook version of that book.
Perfect mix to center yourself and get in touch with what’s truly important. Enjoy!
