The journey that has led to the release of this project is the result of 10 years of writing and recording. Tiffany began creating the songs found in this release when she returned to Canada after 4 years of travel to address a personal health crisis and to continue working with others also going through their own health challenges. The songs on this project were inspired by these experiences and reflect a range of human responses to facing the pain of difficult times, from determination, to embracing tears, to focusing on the positive.
Soundbath: Lie back, and get ready to receive the vibro-acoustic components of sound combined with guided meditation.
