HILDE GIRLS & HILDEGARD VON BINGEN Twice a year, Susan offers a 12-week Hilde Girls series in Austin, Texas, which concludes with a healing prayer service for the general public. Due to high demand, this series is now also being offered in Dallas as well. Susan's relationship with Hildegard began in 1981 and exploded in 1999 when she sang Hildegard's songs in the chapel of the Abbey of St. Hildegard in Eibingen, Germany. "It was as if Hildegard herself came into my heart and voice. I was trembling, my knees were buckling, and I had the experience of being sung." Immediately following this profound experience, she returned to the US and began sharing this with other women. Hildegard Von Bingen, a 12th century abbess, mystic and healer, was one of the Earth's most evolved and visionary individuals. She is also the first composer whose biography is known. Living in a time when few women were accorded respect, Hildegard composed 77 songs, including an "opera" or morality play set to music, which was far ahead of its time.

Product Description Mother Heart is a stunningly beautiful tribute to Saint Hildegard of Bingen, the brilliant 12th Century mystic, abbess, and visionary who drew from ancient wisdom that views the entire cosmos as perfectly harmonized music. Saint Hildegard taught that every being, every entity, and every movement produces a sound inaudible to most of us, yet in harmonic relation to all other sounds. Hildegard possessed the extraordinary gift of being able to hear this extremely subtle but very real cosmic music. She believed that the function of earthly music is to open a portal to the higher realms of harmony that remind us of our soul's origin and rejoin our voices and spirits to the very melody of life. Owing to the fact that Hildegard's compositions were truly divinely inspired, and that Susan Lincoln has rendered Hildegard's songs with unparalleled devotion and precision, you'll find that Mother Heart is highly conducive music for meditation. This recording is also the perfect music for yoga, as well as ideal music for relaxation and stress-relief
