Loosen Loosen by Aly Halpert published on 2018-09-17T02:37:43Z Song/prayer/meditation to heal personal and societal grief. For ordinary grief, extraordinary grief, the unbearable kind and the unseen kind and the enduring kind, in service of exhales and letting go of what is ours and not ours, of compassion, lightness, & becoming who we are after and through it all.

I assist with the music at the congregation where Eric Severson used to be a member. He is returning to speak this Sunday, now as an ordained minister. Would it be possible to get permission to play this song during our online service this Sunday? 2020-08-12T01:59:36Z Comment by Megan Ruth Visser Is it ok to share this with my congregation? 2020-07-27T22:01:51Z Comment by Colleen P A new fan.

You are a healer and so inspiring to me! 2020-05-08T19:20:52Z Comment by wtchywmn9 I heard this chant on a joint Sunday service recently, and it has become a permanent earworm. I find myself waking up in the middle of the night with it running through my head. It is working powerful magic for me these days. I tend to hoard books and craft stuff. I'm seeing a change in the way I look at my things. "Let go, let go, let go" has become my new mantra. There are currently 6 boxes of books awaiting the reopening of the local library...they take donations for their book sale. Aly, thank you so much for your beautiful music! I feel so much lighter. 2020-05-04T15:09:12Z Comment by Valda Roberts Wow needed this! 2020-04-30T18:17:35Z Comment by BeccaManyStones Love this, and need it!! 2020-04-29T13:36:17Z Comment by Roger Butts @eric-severson-1: amazing 2020-04-24T02:59:54Z Comment by Alma I find this song chesed loving kindness ~ thank you for your healing voice & music 2020-04-15T18:56:21Z Comment by Alinahh Tigre Ever sweet medicine song. perfect for now. i'll share it in the spacious solidarity songcircle i will lead tomorrow in our ecovillage. thank you 2020-03-27T02:39:54Z Comment by Keith Arnold Heard about the song from Matt Meyer, thanks to Matt for letting me know, and to Aly for bringing the song into the world. 2020-03-26T15:12:37Z Comment by Keith Arnold Thank you so much for sharing this song.
