In today’s episode of Good Vinyl Mornings, we lean into the pursuit of something we all crave but rarely prioritize: inner peace. Not the kind that waits for external validation or perfect conditions—but the kind you create and protect from within.
Our soundtrack for this reflection is Steve Winwood’s anthemic “Higher Love,” a Grammy-winning classic from 1986. With its soaring melody and uplifting message—amplified by the incomparable Chaka Khan on backing vocals—this song reminds us that peace isn’t passive. It’s an act of reaching higher, choosing better, and loving deeper.
We break down how “Higher Love” isn’t just about romance—it’s about transcending the noise, the pressure, and the chaos of the world around us. It’s about tuning your life to a frequency that doesn’t depend on others. Peace is a practice, not a prize.
This episode explores:
Creating your own peace means recognizing that calm is a choice. Stillness is a strength. And your spirit doesn’t need to wait on the world to quiet down before it can rise up.
So today, turn the volume up on intention—and let “Higher Love” be the rhythm that lifts your soul.
