THE COLORS OF LOVE

The Colors of Love is a collaborative performance weaving together music, poetry, and storytelling around the theme of love, in all its flavors. It includes original music from Central Texas singer-songwriters Melinda Joy, Randy Langford & Son of Cormack, along with poetry from Rumi, Hafiz, and the Song of Solomon. Starting with the magic of the singing bowl, The Colors of Love is a journey through the heart, spirit, and soul. Join us for a Colors of Love experience - We've got two shows coming up in the Central Texas area in May.

Casa Werma Retreat Center, Patzcuaro, Mexico

The Art of Impermanence explores the process of change and becoming, of the ephemerality of our everyday experience, through the lens of creativity and contemplative arts practice. Through a combination of daily mindfulness meditation practice and creative arts exercises, we will explore the vulnerability inherent in our existence as sentient beings, observing how all phenomena arise and pass away. Using an array of artistic media, including writing, photography, movement, sound, and visual arts, we’ll awaken to the fluid nature of life from the loving container and lush gardens of Casa Werma in Patzcuaro, Mexico.

Finding Your Voice for Enhanced Expression & Joy

Finding Your Voice for Enhanced Expression & Joy

 —  —

Mystic Oaks, Wimberley, Texas

with Melinda Rothouse & Thais Bicalho Silva. This workshop will explore the connections between the physical body and vocal and creative expression. You’ll learn how to let go of unnecessary bracing and tension in the body to create greater personal empowerment and expression. The day will include a series of gentle, mindful movement exercises, guided attention, vocal explorations, and plenty of time for reflection, journaling, and discussion. We will also have a lunch break where you could walk around the property or find a place to sit in silence and practice sensing/perceiving your body. Participants will leave with an enhanced sense of physical grounding, coordination, and integration that embodies confidence, empowerment, freedom, flexibility, and creativity.
