“I do a lot of visualisations and meditation and a lot of hippie stuff.” — Rachel Platten Quote

I do a lot of visualisations and meditation and a lot of hippie stuff.

I learned a lot from playing those late-night, 1-to-4 A.M. gigs with my band, and playing when no one was listening.

I wrote my first song when I was six or seven, a silly little song. But I used to write poems in high school - not songs.

I work extremely hard to stay positive and happy. But I get sad and anxious, too, just like everyone.

I had my first concert in front of 80,000 people at the International Soca Monarch Finals.

I had hippie parents, and I found it difficult to figure out how to rebel against them.

I'm not very good at business. I'm more of a creative, fun-loving hippie type.

There were two things I wanted to be: an actor and a hippie.

I didn't start thinking about what I wanted to do professionally until I was 17. I was a hippie, but I did write.

I've always been like a black hippie.
