Singing meditation blends song and silence to uplift the spirit and soothe the soul.
Ruthie Rosauer and Liz Hill, co- authors of “Singing Meditation,” will introduce the practice to Mahoning Valley residents during a program from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Sunday at First Unitarian Universalist Church, 1105 Elm St.
Rosauer of Eau Claire, Wis., and Hill of Boardman, who met about 20 years ago through a mutual friend, described themselves as “spiritual companions.” Hill’s husband, Matt Alspaugh, is pastor of First Unitarian and Rosauer belongs to a Unitarian church in Eau Claire. She described herself as a “traveling corporate spouse” who has lived in 11 states.
Both women said they loved to sing but had been discouraged in musical avenues.
