It&#8217;s claimed that such a frequency provides stress relief, healing, and internal harmony, and those who attend her concerts testify to this.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the video for &#8216;Slip Sliding Away&#8217;, Karen is in a treehouse in the middle of a forest, where she plays guitar while communing with nature. Her idyllic retreat conveys a serenity, and her treehouse provides a vantage point from which to watch life around her. The video in many ways serves as an answer to the song, providing comfort for the troubled and dislocated characters and their predicaments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find out more about Karen Atkins online on her <a href=\"http:\/\/www.karenatkinsmusic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_75469\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tdscXAjhZH4?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Paul Simon Slip Slidin&#039; Away (Cover) Music in 432 hz- by Karen Atkins\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/tdscXAjhZH4\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karen Atkins has recorded a beautiful cover of the 1977 Paul Simon hit, &#8216;Slip Slidin&#8217; Away&#8217;.
