Throughout my life I have felt my maternal instincts deep within.  Working with children through the years, I was able to understand the role of a mother only slightly, and I often wondered how my spirit would continue to expand in the presence of my own child.  These changes were beyond profound, and in the moment we conceived our star child, I transitioned into the all encompassing realm of Mother.

I had already been mentoring children from all walks of life for many years at this point, and I had adopted them into my heart joyfully, holding the space that was available to help guide them toward the healthiest, happiest, and most fulfilling path they could imagine.  What had started out as musical therapy, became a much more in depth experience of mutual transformation when I began working with children who were fighting terminal and chronic illnesses.  After having observed that their parents were quite overwhelmed, I stepped into a role of deep investigation into their personal ailments, and rapidly gathered any and all information that could assist in their healing journey toward perfect health.  This began in the realm of organic food, pure water, and superfood supplements, but it did not end there.  There really is no end to the powerful healing essences our Great Mother Earth has provided for our every need.  We need only to continue to seek out and expand into these magical blessings of harmonic resonance to discover for ourselves the true medicines that can assist us in becoming the most vibrant versions of ourselves.

This magnificent journey has inspired the creation of these skin and soul care products. Each of my blends has been created for specific ailments intended for a close friend or family member, and the healing results of their use has been truly awe inspiring.  The most universally relevant creations I offer now to you.   All ingredients are made with organic, wildcrafted, biodynamic, and hydro-distilled essences.  All packaging is in Miron violet glass, which is known to preserve and enhance the quality of the essences it contains.

Music 4 the Kids (M4tK) was created by singer-songwriter Paula Ferraro in 2005 to help children discover themselves and relate to the world around them in a more empathetic way. M4tK provides innovative musical and creative instruction to children of all ages, cultural backgrounds, and societal demographics. Through a series of songwriting sessions, M4tK records and produces CDs of the original music for the kids who participate and lend their spirit to the genesis of the songs. This exercise gives kids a window into their own creative hearts and the ability to share their music with the world around them. 

M4tK was born of Paula’s conviction that everyone has a responsibility to help young people overcome their struggles and realize their dreams. Over the past decade, Paula has brought the M4tK program to kids of all ages throughout Southern California,  New York City, Atlanta, Oregon, Japan, and Costa Rica.  The program has also been implemented with school districts, church groups, hospitals, and local charity organizations throughout the US.

Paula is passionate about teaching children to develop a musical process to allow for their emotional landscape to be explored, reflected, express, and shared with others.  Each one of us has truth in our hearts, and M4tK is focused on bringing that truth to the surface, cultivating a safe space to be heard and encouraged, and transmuting emotions into beautiful songs.  

Weaving in the educational benefits of mentors allows for a fresh perspective and further develops a collaborative effort into the creative process.  This harmonic relationship allows for the simultaneous teaching that arises from the youth and adults working together through exploration and innovation in the musical realm of soulful expression.  

This process of reflection and sharing is profound within social groups.  Witnessing emotional bravery through creative exploration inspires others to rise into their own uniqueness, and allows for the process of collaboration and innovation to flourish naturally.   It allows for the dissolution of societal comparisons, competition, and isolation.  To have a process to creatively look at yourself, hear yourself, and see and understand one another on a deeper level in sharing your expressions with the world around you is very empowering and uplifting. When children have the opportunity to express heartfelt emotions, the synchronization of their emotional sensibilities promotes empathic responses, bonding and uniting their efforts in all areas of life.
