Songs for Retreats

A collection of 18 songs that will have you singing every day...to affirm your life, to move you past obstacles, to inspire your Soul, to be closer to Mother Earth. Even if you are not someone who considers yourself musical or a "singer", you will benefit from these mini songs and chants. Sing these with your kids, your partner; in the car, while walking, upon rising. These songs are designed to sing at retreats, with groups of women and couples and other gatherings of the heart.

FUTURE RELEASES TO BE ANNOUNCED HERE

"I was so pleased that I could sing along with many of the songs and chants right away. It was peaceful way to start my week. As I drove along I felt as though I was reaffirming a vision of caring for myself, the earth and others. It reminded me to be open and not let my own insecurities cloud
my daily work..." 
– Lexanne

"Perhaps if I had been self caring my whole life, this CD would have floated into my life and been enjoyed and floated right into the endless stacks of CDs I have enjoyed. But not this CD; it is, well, different, special...these songs invite me to stop and sing along, affirming my willingness to care for ME." 
– Ginny

"...helps me breathe and be quiet - gives me energy..."  - Mitzi

"I loved the fact that this album obviously comes from your hearts. It is a simple album, yet it certainly is rich. The songs vary in style from the ancient sounding to the modern, from vocal to instrumental, from childlike innocence to a sage-like maturity. Ah, heck, it's just fun to sing to; every little cell in my body thinks so."  - Leroy

"Earth Chants by Helene and Dave Van Manen is one of the most powerful and empowering collections of music available today. I use the music professionally, beginning each of my retreats with "Metta" and ending each closing circle with "Peace Will Come". For me there is nothing more affirming than voices raised together singing "Let my life be lived be lived for the good of my soul, let it bring peace..." and each time that happens it brings us one step closer to world peace, for truly peace can only begin with me. I also find personal meaning in Dave's "I'm Going On" a tribute to where we've been and the gifts we found along the way. Earth Chants has at least one song that will speak to the heart of every person who listens and change the way they do life for the better, their betterment and the world's."
