The Water - Johnny Flynn and Laura Marling 

 

All that I have is a river

The river is always my home

Lord, take me away

For I just cannot stay

Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones

 

The water sustains me without even trying

The water can't drown me, I'm done

With my dying

 

Please help me build a small boat

One that'll ride on the flow

Where the river runs deep

And the larger fish creep

I'm glad of what keeps me afloat

 

The water sustains me without even trying

The water can't drown me, I'm done

With my dying

 

Now deeper the water I sail

And faster the current I'm in

That each night brings the stars

And the song in my heart

Is a tune for the journeyman's tale

 

The water sustains me without even trying

The water can't drown me, I'm done

With my dying

 

Now the land that I knew is a dream

And the line on the distance grows faint

So wide is my river

The horizon a sliver

The artist has run out of paint

 

Where the blue of the sea meets the sky

And the big yellow sun leads me home

I'm everywhere now

The way is a vow

To the wind of each breath by and by

 

The water sustains me without even trying

The water can't drown me, I'm done

With my dying

 

 

I LOVE THIS ONE TOO! It’s been on my playlist for few years. And Simon and Garfunkel as well! 🤍

So many songs I would love to share with you, but it would take pages so here’s just a few that have been with me during this 

 

ABBA - I’m still alive (one of the most beautiful songs about surviving, the lyrics are just  :'( )

 

Miranda Lee Richards - Lifeboat

“ Oh my love

Woncha' stop your cryin'

The sunlight's bringin' rainbows to your tears

Cotton swayin' fields are the pillars of your sadness

The daylight dries the rusted leaves

You wake up it's a dream...

And it's a bright, sunny morning

Each day a new beginning”

 

Beautiful Chorus - Darling (I have made it through countless hopeless days crying and rocking on my bed by listening to this song and singing along<3 I really recommend listening to Beautuful Chorus’s songs, they are very soothing and uplifting like mantras)

 

Fleetwood Mac - Never going back again (as in never going on benzos again!!  )

 

Bob Marley - Three little birds (uplifting jam!)

 

Maneesh de Moor - Flower of Light (so calming and soothing)

 

I think humming/singing along has in a way saved me. During my worst I couldn’t listen to music but then slowly I got into more mellow music with eastern and Hindu influence, learned many mantra songs and made it my practice to sing them when ever I had difficulty dealing with symptoms. Here are few of my favorites that are such a beautiful practices and I always encourage to google the meaning of the mantras, they are empovering:

 

Ajeet - Ra Ma Da Sa healing

(This mantra taps into the energies of the sun, moon, earth, and the Infinite Spirit to bring deep healing. It can be chanted to heal the self or to send healing energy to anyone you wish.)

 

Mirabai Ceiba - Ajai Alai

(Ajai Alai is a powerful mantra that can build your radiant body, bring you out of depression and anger, and dissolve challenges in front of you.)

 

White sun - Say saraswati

(This mantra praises three different aspects of the Goddess – love, wealth, and power. This is actually a poem written in Sanskrit and in English to bring happiness, victory, prosperity, and fulfillment.)

 

and many more beautiful songs for chanting like Krishna Das, Snatam Kaur. And then all the shamanistic and rooted ones as well, but that would be a whole another page on it’s own.

 

Blessings to you all.

Rich Mullins is great.  He died at a young age in a car crash.  He's in heaven now and when I die hopefully  I'll be able to see him there and hopefully he'll sing songs to me.
