Quiet a restless mind; drift into a peaceful state of calm. A relaxing narration amidst a hypnotic soundscape of frame drum and Tibetan singing bowls spirals the listener to the very core of his/her essence unveiling the beauty and creativity within. Renowned percussionist Grant Smith collaborates with Tahya to create an ethereal experience connecting you with your Inner Wisdom.

"The narration is lovely--relaxing and inspirational at the same time--and Grant's thoughtful and sensitive accompaniment is crucial to the complete package. The echo of a rhythmic "heartbeat" stayed with me... Kudos to you both for putting together such an enjoyable and creative break from the real world. This is what the world needs right now..."

- Lana Higginbotham, Atlanta, GA

"I love your new CD. I bought another one for a friend here at work who has been battling cancer now for years and is still having treatment. She loves it too and told me since she has a hard time relaxing with all the things in her head, she was amazed when listening to this CD how fast she became relaxed and fell asleep."

- Karen Wessels, Nazareth, PA

"The other day my (6th Grade) classroom was filled with students all a buzz and hyper in anticipation of the upcoming holiday season. I had your CD in my purse and played it for my students. Happily, it calmed them down and provided a return to sanity for me."

- Donna Tylenda
Bethlehem, PA

"Your beautiful narrative is like poetry. It made me "see" magical visions... I also appreciate that there are lots of pauses without continuous talking (like other meditations I've experienced). You have the perfect voice and the music goes well with the meditations. It's very calming and made me feel really good."

- Allison Chun

"I used the drumming/music Tracks #2 and #4 in my classes for warm-up movement and breathing and everyone loved it.... Thank you!"

"Tahya can transform any place into another time and place with her artistry. She is a true artist as well as a gifted communicator," David Amram, internationally-acclaimed composer/conductor/multi-instrumentalist.

Tahya is well-known throughout the U.S. for presentations of Danse Orientale treating audiences to an expansive view of the richness of Middle Eastern Dance - from the faithful renditions of traditional dances to innovative combinations of oriental movement. From a pharaonic dance inspired by ancient paintings, through folk dances developed and preserved through the centuries to the present day form of the dance with its new trends and directions, the dances, choreography, and costumes of her programs provide an exciting, exotic journey guaranteed to educate, fascinate, and entertain.

Tahya has been teaching and performing dance traditions steeped in antiquity for over 20 years. Her classes awaken inner creativity while emphasizing music and dance as a window on the unique cultures of the Middle East. Often at the onset of class Tahya will "guide" participants through a meditation as a way to unwind and slow down. Due to the enthusiastic response to this segment of class, Tahya recorded this CD.

"Taking 10 to 30 minutes a day to visualize the optimum person you aspire to be has the power to manifest that in your life." ~ Tahya
