Adrian Newington

"Still My Mind" is the name of the title track of my Debut Album released in mid 2005, and represents the motivation in my personal philosophy and the purpose of my music ministry. It is my quest for personal peace.

At this Web Site, I offer material to anyone seeking the inspiration necessary to help bring about change in the quality of life. I attempt to bring this to you through my music, and a sharing of the personal understandings I have obtained through life.

If you're searching for some answers, or trying to bring about real change in your life, I hope that what I have presented via these pages and my music will benefit you. I, myself, have found the process of self-inquiry and self-discovery profoundly liberating and I have written a variety of texts and make them freely available to anyone wishing to read them. I hope that your thinking and your life may be uplifted through the sharing of these works.
