As artists we have to do more than just saying... “DOWNLOAD MY NEW SONG!!!” That shit is for the birds. 🐦

I had a fun interview today where I got a chance to teach a lesson to the teachers at Believe In Music. Here’s the recap. Please check out full video on my YouTube channel (Aaron Hill TV)

Accepting Fear 12/11/19 10% Happier Self Care Journey - Day 7 Notes ° "I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life - and I've  never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do." Georgia O'Keeffe ° Many times having courage is more attainable than being fearless. -Aaron Hill ° Acknowledging and accepting the feeling of fear is the first key to  investigating the feeling which is the first key to alleviating and  breaking up the grip of fear. ° Fear is an evolutionary survival tool. The point is to manage it so that you don't experience it when you doesn't serve you.

circumscribe - 12/11/19 A Word A Day verb (used with object), cir·cum·scribed, cir·cum·scrib·ing. to draw a line around; encircle: to circumscribe a city on a map. to enclose within bounds; limit or confine, especially narrowly: Her social activities are circumscribed by school regulations. to mark off; define; delimit: to circumscribe the area of a science. Geometry. to draw (a figure) around another figure so as to touch as many points as possible.     (of a figure) to enclose (another figure) in this manner.

Cessation - A Word A Day 12/10/19 noun: cessation; plural noun: cessations the fact or process of ending or being brought to an end.     "the cessation of hostilities"

Lust Cracks The Brain 12/10/19 10% Happier Self Care Journey - Day 6 Notes ° Introducing a bit of humor about your thoughts is a tremendously valuable tool in practicing mindfulness. ° There's absolutely NOTHING inerrantly wrong with lust or any other  desire. The goal is to pay attention to which desires serve us and which  entangle us. Balance is key. ° Lust is the foundational reason that you can read this statement. 😂 ° As far as sex goes…..Lust is actually the first stage of falling in  love. It is driven by desire, the sex hormones play an important role in  this stage which makes sense because if there is no desire, then how  can there eventually be love. Lust is the fire, love is the fuel and  without one the other doesn't last for too long.

Letting Thoughts Go 12/9/19 10% Happier Self Care Journey — Day 5 Notes ° Remember that the “thought” of a thing, scenario or circumstance is not the thing itself. Sometimes we aren’t aware that we are getting deeply emotionally sucked into the “movies” of our minds. Some are fine some are causing us unnecessary stress, anxiety or depression. ° Use mindfulness to sort through these thoughts to see if they are helpful to us or useless, unhealthy or harmful. ° If you get caught up in an unhealthy “movie” in your mind take a few minutes to breath deeply, focus on your breath and tell yourself “It’s ok to feel this”, “It’s just a mind state”, “These feelings are only temporary”, “I can freely let this go”. ° Meditation becomes increasingly accessible as we learn to let thoughts come and go.

Pranayama (prana = energy + yama = control) is a type of meditation technique that  involves various ways of controlling the breathing, with the goal being  to withdraw ones senses from the outside world. This helps one to raise  one’s prana (or Kundalini energy in this case) up the deep spine to the  spiritual eye or sixth chakra, which brings one to enlightenment. Kriya  Yoga is one such technique, made well known by Paramhamsa Yogananda in Autobiography of a Yogi.  (1)

compersion (uncountable) 1. The feeling of joy one has experiencing another's joy, such as in witnessing a toddler's joy and feeling joy in response. 2. The feeling of joy associated with seeing a loved one love another; contrasted with jealousy.

"It's Ok To Feel This" 12/7/19 10% Happier Self Care Journey - Day 4 Notes ° Recognition isn't mindfulness. We can recognize something and still be averse to it. ° Mindfulness: a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on  the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's  feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic  technique. ° Saying "It's ok to feel this" allows us to balance  the recognition with a genuine acceptance of what we're feeling or what  is there. ° When meditating and using the words "In/Out" while  breathing use mouth shapes that naturally mimic these words like in  Pranayamic breathing exercises.

"It's Just A Mind State" 10% Happier Self Care Journey - Day 3 Notes ° Fear is a changing mind state that will go just as easily as it comes  if you let it. Don't make a mountain out of a molehill. - Aaron Hill ° To become mindful take suffering or tension as "feedback" rather than a problem. ° Struggling with something is an indicator of not accepting. When you accept, the feeling of struggle dissipates. - Aaron Hill ° When dealing with undesirable narratives and loops remind yourself "It's Just A Mind State". ° When meditating use the phrase "In out" while breathing to help to keep your mind focused on your breath.

Being vulnerable and not worrying about anyone else’s judgment is a topic that we are used to but not as used to in our new environment of communication called social media. I feel that I will be a counselor and supporter in this area of human relations until the day I die..... Or until every human on earth is that a place of high self-esteem and self-confidence around it and that mission excites me.

Sometimes I really wonder......

Until today I have NEVER heard this term. But after I looked it up it gave me so much confirmation of something I’ve know Ive for a while. Wondering your thoughts???

y new journey around self care and meditation. 2 years ago I had a panic attack and as I started researching I came across news anchor Dan Harris' story. His quest led him to create a compilation of meditation courses featuring a wide diversity of great contributors, an audio book and a really in depth app around these topics. It resonated with me because as a secular humanist I need meditation resources that are void of religious or spiritual connotations, motivations and language..... otherwise they become distractions and obstacles to me being successful with the practices. I highly recommend his resource for anyone interested in meditation. It's really educational, inspirational and fun. Here's the website: www.tenpercent.com I'll be documenting my daily self care journey using this resource so please stay tuned as I share to help others and to help myself! Also, here's the link to my new piano meditation album "Key Reflections" https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/aaronhill/key-reflections-vol-1 I also hope to become a musical contributor myself! *fingers crossed!*🤞

CNN did a report about Trumps falsehoods and how they’ve desensitized us. Here’s my thoughts. I’m curious of yours.

My New Brand Of Neurological Programming Music.

An interesting question with an interesting answer.

A Great Meeting with Believe In Music and I have the new song name!!!

Recap of my convo with my friend Jiana Hunter. Helping her to achieve her legacy goals!

Always fun when you get to play new songs with such incredible musicians!

I love having / creating new experiences. I also love nothing more than to pour into other people....especially with regard to their legacy. Tonight was the best of both worlds 😎

Mindset Mindset Mindset Mindset.....Oh and one more thing..... Mindset. 😂 The world and industries around us change and have changed so rapidly that we’re applying an Old Mindset to a New Industry. Check out this convo explaining how musicians and artists should approach the new media environment we’re living in. Enjoy!

It’s kind of like having a conversation with my 19 year old self. Creative minded, forward thinking, a natural entrepreneurial spirit, positive and optimistic vibe, well mannered and forward thinking; I believe Naseem Rogers is a promising 19 year old. Please enjoy this convo and drop a line in support of this brother.

In 2008 I met a brother who would be apart of the next 3 year unfolding of my musical life. We would create many musical memories in the studio and playing as live musicians. Now I get the opposite to give back by helping him to approach his music career from a new perspective and share some info that I think is helpful for many artists and musicians. I really hope you enjoy this convo and by all means drop him a line in support of the stories he’s getting ready to share with you about his musical journey!

The music industry has changed so much over the past 10-15 years that it can be hard to know how to setup your business to get your royalties and obtain your rights. In this convo we discuss some formulas to use as starting or finalized templates.

I believe we have an overemphasis on expectation and an under emphasis on acceptance.....

Helping my brother to reset, refocus and realign.....as well as taking my own medicine.

I’ve been sooooo looking forward to having this conversation! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!

I have always found this to be soooo funny 😆

When a person says I Don’t Want To Hear That Bullshit when you express your feelings.

This conversation is my gift to everyone. Helping people to use technology and creative ideas to fulfill their legacy goals is one of the chosen purposes for life. I hope it’s a gift to you too.

Many people are afraid or just uneducated on the benefits of going to a chiropractor. This is my attempt to bring light via my own experience. Hope you enjoy!

Reread the title above again for an in depth explanation.....Then just listen to the podcast, watch the live stream video “Elation” and you’ll see why I said that. Real Talk.

The value of exposure and education can never be underestimated. I personally feel it’s the number one determining factor to the successes and failures of humanity. Another thing that can never be underestimated is the value of building lasting relationships. Here my and my good brother Eugene Barnes build on those values simultaneously while building a relationship 😊

I’ve had the honor and great opportunity to teaching the S.T.E.M class in the Baltimore public school system a few times now and it’s been a really enjoyable experience for myself, the teachers and the students. Here I talk with Linda Strowbridge of the Fort Meade Alliance for an article that will be published in their newsletter about my program and my unique approach to Math In Music. Enjoy!

Finding your musical “voice” can be a challenging process for many. I believe the key is dedicating time to be “in the shed” where you can explore the ideas, styles and vocabulary that resonate deeply with YOU, your personality and tastes (separate from getting ready for a gig). In this convo my good friend Tonya Franklin and I chop it up and go down the “rabbit hole” on this deep topic. Enjoy and by all means please drop a line with your additional thoughts and ponderings.

Balance, Confidence and Intent are the keys to making a difference in your career.

From a 3 year old displaying an amazing gift of figuring out on the piano what she heard her grandmother play to the viral video of her rendition of “Hear My Prayer” Callie Day is an amazingly humble, modest, transparent and genuine person who’s story is just as awe inspiring as her vast and dynamic vocal range.

Making happiness, peace, contentment and quality of life TOP priority is the only way to live. Often this means making a decision in life that although it comes with its ups and downs gives you way more quality of life, success and happiness in the long run.

Intention and Vulnerability is the name of the game.

I really cherish these dear people. They are taking major courageous strides in their legacy.

😡I HATE the way people cross the street in west Baltimore. Here’s my reasons why.....oh and I also y’all about some good music 😊 😂

Tonight was a night to remember.

An exciting talk with Henry Wong about spreading more community awareness of An Die Musik.

A personal story.

It was an honor teaching at the college where it all started for me 20 years ago as a student.

Smiling from ear to ear..☺️

The current joy I’m getting out of assisting people from all walks of life with documenting their legacy and sharing their true “voice” with the world is priceless.

We discuss the benefit of a weekly Vlog, Kemit’s new e book, mindset and more.

Recap to a great meeting talking marketing with a marketer!!

Sparked by a conversation with my father.

I made a podcast about it. Like to hear it? Here it goes (insider) 😂

I love building new relationships 😊

Helping my brother with his Artist Workshop/Showcase idea.

More than being starters let’s be finishers. Before you start another project, business venture or opportunity give the ones that you’ve already started a chance to fly.

In 5-10 years everyone who makes a living that utilizes social media in any way will have a dedicated content manager and video editor.....or at least it will be in our best interest to have them.

I was listening to one of my favorite jazz pianist Keith Jarrett and heard a song that I thought was mislabeled. It was it. You learn something new every day.

This is both to relate to those who can empathize and to help those who are on the other side to know how it feels.

Musicians and Artists. What’s your differentiator? Build community and relationships. Stop just trying to sell shit.

To find the best “seashell” in life there are 2 approaches. 1.) Setup a technical excavation with high tech equipment and a team. 2.) Play like a kid in the sand. On your major, intense, SUPER serious life excavation take the time to explore like an innocent bright eyed curious kid..... You’ll find the same seashell and have a much more fun time doing it. Aaron Hill
