   The Hidden Power of Sound and Love Frequency, with Maryna Vadini | Table Talks Ep32

   🎶 What if music could help us reconnect with ourselves and remember what peace feels like?I’ve sat down with Maryna Vadini, the creator behind Love Frequency, a unique musical and experiential project born from a deeply personal question: What if all it took was a single moment to remember what peace feels like?Maryna shares the story behind Love Frequency, her journey through meditation, psychology, breathwork, body-oriented practices and music, and why she believes sound can reach places that words simply cannot.At the heart of Love Frequency is a mantra album that brings together sacred mantras, organic instruments, modern production, immersive sound design and binaural listening techniques. But Maryna's vision goes beyond an album - it is about creating experiences where people can slow down, breathe, listen deeply and reconnect with themselves.We talk about the inspiration behind the project, the creative process, the importance of peace in a world filled with uncertainty, and what it takes to bring this vision to life.❤️ If Maryna's story resonates with you, you can become part of the journey.Love Frequency is currently being brought to life through crowdfunding, with contributions helping support professional recording, mixing and mastering, collaborations with musicians, equipment, visual production and the time needed to develop the project.👉 Support the Love Frequency campaign and help bring this music and experience into the world (link below)Meet Maryna Vadini!Links:Table Talks: https://www.instagram.com/boardgames_tabletalks/https://open.spotify.com/show/4PqQaYeNqfFDLUgVVMG4UMhttps://podcasts.apple.com/pt/podcast/table-talks-podcast/id1896594477Guest:https://www.indiegogo.com/pt/projects/maryna-vadini/love-frequencyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0uKt2fZ23gUlONJVgmUF7uhttps://www.instagram.com/soulvoice_vadini/================================================================Mixing board games and card games to unlock interesting conversations over the game table.Subscribe to be surprised with never-before-seen storiesTags:#boardgamestabletalks #lovefrequency #mantramusic #meditation #soundhealing #mindfulness #soundhealingmusic #soundhealingtherapist (00:00) Introduction(03:16) What is Love Frequency?
