citizen of the world. child of mother earth.

singer-songwriter. visual artist. wisdom keeper. ceremonialist.

Hello world! My name is Purnama, and I feel blessed to be a daughter of the enchanting Balinese jungles and majestic Swiss mountains.

My passion is uniting people through the universal language of music.

This fuels my drive to create sacred spaces that encourage & nurture authentic expression. I am also dedicated to preserve indigenous wisdom for the generations to come.

Music, art and community have been my guiding lights while navigating the many trials & challenges of life. In the same way, I hope that my creations help to uplift and support those around me too!

May we be able to shift our focus to the beauty & abundance that surrounds us in every moment, and our innate power we have as creators.

We all carry the source of wisdom within, and I wish to support you on this discovery.

Everything Purnama does, she does with complete reverence. Her love of Balinese culture and commitment to ceremony is a true inspiration. I remember the first time I went to her class I was mesmerised.

Purnama makes the intricate details of these ceremonies accessible to all and in the past has held a incredibly potent online New Moon ceremony for my womens group in Australia.

I'm truly grateful to know Purnama and admire her grace, humility as well her dedication to bring prayer to the world.

If you've wondered why since December I haven't replied to your WhatsApp messages or group invitations or why my image & video quality has become so crappy, it's because my iPhone stopped working about 3 months ago.

It was quite a blow because I bought that phone only 2,5 years ago as an investment into my self-employment and art. With it I lost my WhatsApp chats, the group I created to promote my work with about 170 people, and some voice recordings. Thank God I backed up my images & videos.

It took me a while to make this post & announce that I have a new number because I tried to save it and still had some hopes I would get my number and Whatsapp back, but nope 😅

Please let me know if you'd like to save my new number! ❤️

Sweet memories

The illusion of separation is causing so much suffering. Borders, divisions, and fear-based narratives try to keep us apart—but in truth, we are all threads of the same great weaving, children of the same earth, moon and stars.

At a time when so much in the world is built on division, we need sacred spaces to remember our interconnectedness. They offer the medicine that help us to root ourselves in truth and to keep our hearts open, so that the blessings of love can keep flowing in and out of our being.

May our ceremonies and songs support you in this remembering ❤️✨

Repost of the time I spoke with @therahayuproject on Balinese offerings, alongside @evakandra 🌺

Deep gratitude to @immariamutiara and the Rahayu Project team for their incredible storytelling of Indonesian culture and traditions. I highly recommend to check out their channel if you live in or plan to visit Indonesia! ❤️

May we remember to put the heart and intention into the things we do everyday. My aim by holding sessions on the Art of Balinese Offerings is to help preserve the wisdom & why we do rituals, while at the same time exploring how they can grow & evolve with us in modern times.

Come join our workshop next Wednesday!
We also offer sessions for groups, retreats, trainings or 1:1.

THE ART OF BALINESE OFFERINGS

Many of you have asked, and I'm excited to offer this workshop again with my dear aunt @ayu.parniasih after a long time!

In Bali, offerings filled with flowers, also called "canang", are present everywhere. Their tradition dates back a thousand years and is connected to ancient universal wisdom that spans around the globe and beyond.

In this workshop we will not only make our own canang, but also learn their rich history and philosophy. This not only fosters a deeper sense of understanding and connection with the island, but also with ourselves, our ancestors, and the worlds around us. 🌿

S E L F L O V E

Loving myself with all my flaws, my scars and my edges - it took many years and I am still growing into it. Every day, it’s a conscious act of choosing to be my own best lover, instead of my worst critic.

Stage lights, cameras and mirrors can at times be brutal in emphasizing the parts of us we like less. Social media promotes comparison with our peers. The more I step into public spaces, the more compassion I feel for those in the public eye who alter their appearances with botox and surgeries in order to fit so-called “beauty standards”.

When I see pictures of me like this, my scars visible under unflattering light, with a huge pimple ready to burst like a volcano, I catch a fleet of thoughts - wishing I’d looked different, that my skin was smoother, more beautiful.

I could give into those thoughts, and undergo costly & lengthy procedures to get my scars removed, hoping to fit the standards of beauty then. Or I can choose to love and accept my flaws here and now, thus releasing myself from the burden of having to wait for an ideal or perfect outcome.

Instead, I focus on the beauty that is already here now.

Besides, nothing is as beautiful as someone who fully and wholly loves themselves and feels confident in their own skin. The most gorgeous people I’ve met are those with a confidence that is deeply rooted within themselves, and not tied to an outer appearance.

I am still learning to embody that.

Happy belated Valentine’s Day, beloveds! ❤️
May we find love within ourselves for all parts of us, our scars and our flaws included.

Giving thanks for the earth & the plants 🌏🌿

May we revive the practice of sacred reciprocity and of making offerings to the life giving forced around us. As the Balinese, Andean, Indian, Sri Lankan, and many other cultures do, and our ancestors around the world have done for centuries.

A reminder that we are infinitely abundant and to give from our hearts & a space of love ❤️

Sri Lanka, thank you for the magic, the lush jungles and the ocean medicine 🌊

So blessed to have @n.a.t.h.a.l.i_a sharing her valuable insights of this land and discovering our similarities as world bridgers in our homes. 🌿

The @hoo.temple is one of the most exquisite nature & community spots I got to discover here, and I am truly grateful and honored for the opportunity to share together with Nathali at this magical place!

We are joining our forces and look forward to bring you a special ceremony, with cacao medicine from Bali & Sri Lanka!

This will be an afternoon filled with medicine music, offerings for the sacred earth we walk upon, community & connection.

DM us to book your spot 💌

With love ❤️

A little snippet of the latest song I wrote and performed at @alegria.bali 💫

This is one of over 50 songs that I have written but yet not recorded or released.

Performing or writing a song comes easy to me, yet when it comes to recording, I experience huge blockages.

For years, I have been going in & out of the studio and working on releases, but the big amount of time & money it takes to create a song can take a toll and feel overwhelming, not to mention the internal monologues that torment me, from "My voice is not good enough" to "Will people even listen to this?".

However, for 2025 I have set myself a strong intention that this will finally be the year that my songs will come into the world! 🎶✨

One single & music video that I recorded at @bungalo.musicproduction and filmed with @ubudprod is almost finished and in the final stages of creation. I am very excited for you to listen to it! Coming out February 2025 🌿

In the meantime, thank you for every single soul who has ever supported and believed in me & my music. My gratitude for you is beyond words and a healing balm for my little artist heart ❤️

With all my love,
Purnama
