As a long time fan of "Songs for the Inner Child," I was eager to hear her second release, "Bread for the Journey." The moods on this CD are much more diverse, ranging from the very powerful and soothing "Brother Warrior" to some very playful, upbeat songs. (It did take me a little adjusting, as the mood on her first CD is more single note.) My most surprising favorite is "On a Clear Day." This is a song I had heard many times, but never actually listened to! Shaina's version carries so beautifully the energy and message of this song: On a clear day...you can see who you really are. The produciton values here are much improved, and for me this increase in professional sound quality only adds to the synchrony of Shaina's lovely voice and the heart-felt songs.

On her second release, Shaina Noll has compiled ten beautiful, inspiring and uplifting songs, which she performs with sincerity, conviction and passion. Her love for her listeners is palpable throughout each piece. As Shaina has said, these ten songs are pieces, which helped her on her own personal journey, and I am sure they will nurture and inspire anyone who takes the time to listen. Just open your heart, relax, and allow the positive messages and majestic power of these songs to course through you.

Each song contains beautiful orchestrations, exceedingly powerful lyrics, and messages of love, healing and unity. They teach us to honor mother earth, all her inhabitants, and ourselves. Shaina has a warm, rich and highly expressive voice sent straight from Heaven, and sure to sooth your soul. The variety of material here is fantastic... from the reflective and encouraging "Brother Warrior", to the achingly lovely "Only Make Believe" and the delightfully soulful final track, "Sometimes It's Easy", every song presented is a gem, sparkling with vibrancy, intensity and power! This is music that simply must be heard, felt, and lived! This is one musical journey you truly should not miss!!! Allow Shaina and this exceptional music to guide, encourage and inspire you. I am a better person for having listened. Thank you, Shaina, from the bottom of my heart. I can't recommend this album highly enough! Please, "Listen, Listen!"

This is easy to listen to and gives you a good warm feeling...

I had heard one track off of this CD before I purchased it: "Where I sit is Holy", and that is why I wanted the CD. I was happy to learn that the rest of the CD was also as good.

Great music, was introduced to her through a friend and I plan on purchasing more music from her.
