A NOTE FROM MARINA:
Friends, I am so happy that my song “Morning Light” is out today! 
As most of my songs, it is deeply personal, and it took me a few years to feel ready to release it into the world.

In April 2020, shortly after the lockdown began, I was in a bad place, mentally. 

I was a new mom, sleep-deprived, with postpartum hormones wreaking havoc on my mind and body. 
So when the pandemic hit, it felt overwhelming, like the world was ending, as I didn't have the emotional resources to deal with it all.

At the same time, I felt tremendous guilt, having this beautiful baby, an amazing husband and a safe place to live amid the chaos and fear. 

I never had anxiety until this moment in life. This song started writing itself one night when my mind was racing and I couldn't get back to sleep. As it often happens, writing “Morning Light”  helped me channel all of my anxiety and feelings into something soul-healing.

Now, years later, I feel ready to share it. My hope is that this song might help find comfort and solace to those struggling with their own mental health, and help you feel less alone in your pain. Because you are not alone. 

Sending hugs along with this song to all of you who might need it. 
Marina
