Eunoia is a suite of pieces exploring mental wellness, balance, and relationships. Musically exploring harmonies that promote a feeling of wellness and balance.
This piece explores the concept of eunoia as a wellness of mind. Harmony of mind. Harmony in relationships. Knowledge and love of oneself. Not necessarily unending positivity, but harmony within the dialectic of positivity and negativity as a pathway to calm and balance.
