Heather Salmon and Donny Regal are the cofounders of the Black Swan Temple and Mystical Alchemy Sound Healing. Heather is also the co-author of top selling books RISE AMAZING WOMAN RISE, and LEAD AMAZING WOMAN LEAD. These innovative visionary mystics bring decades of experience as professional performers, healers, producers and agents of change. Heather and Donny, twin flames, have been together creatively and romantically for 10 years and reside at the Black Swan Temple, their beautiful Nature sanctuary in Maui, Hawaii. They have produced over 30 Sound Healing CDs, authored the World Fusion Plant Based Recipe Book, and offer sacred sound ceremonies, online mystery school initiations, personal transformative retreats, as well as, sacred pilgrimages to ancient Egypt.
This project was born out of a request from a online global music festival for us to submit a 25 minute sound healing experience. Seeing as we live on beautiful Maui and had a little extra time on our hands with Covid and given the fact that the island was in lockdown with no tourists we took this opportunity to create something a little more special for our audience. It is totally experimental gorilla filmmaking on the fly! Our first time creating a film. Enjoy!
