Story of Heilung

- The tribute to Heilung attempts to tell the story of the start of the phenomenon Heilung. The true story about Maria Franz, Kai Uwe Faust and Christopher Juul. Three fates, who all found healing and meaning in the Norse culture, and who trough twist and turns ended up being at the forefront at the movement, which aims to show and make one feel the power in the animistic ways. We hope the video will deliver you a few minutes of enjoyment, resulting in your either finding your way to Heilung, or maybe make you enjoy their art even more.

I can’t believe that Maria thought she wasn’t pretty. I think she is beautiful inside and out.
Yeah, kind of wild and sad.
It’s not the actual Maria in the video I don’t think
same here
Denmark is very conservative in that regard. I saw one particular post on Facebook a few years before Heilung even existed that they had seen a "dreadful looking Norwegian woman with dreadlocks" on the bus which would have been Maria's daily commute when she was a librarian. Experiences like that could be where it came from.
I bought merch from her a few times at Valravn shows and she was always very guarded and self-protective, coming across perhaps even as a little arrogant in the way that people can be when they have built a wall around themselves after being harassed by idiots. My ex was the same - didn't like her much until the walls came down.
She is stunning! However, many of us females while growing up in a society which promotes a constant changing visual/ surface level of beauty , feel horrendous. The makeup doesn't feel right. The clothes are awkward. When you begin to present authentic to how you feel. You feel and present beauty.
This is what literally going back to the roots means!!! mad respect to you Heilung!!! Keep doing what you do!!!
Having spent all my life in the US, we sadly lack the culture that is otherwise profound throughout Europe. I've longed for a sense of belonging here, but organized religion was certainly not it. I am so thankful to Heilung, for they have opened my eyes to a rich and beautiful heritage, as well as a thriving community of the most wonderful people.
Your point is true, but North America has an amazing nature and spirits. I would love to meet the spirits of north America some day.
I too am from the United states but I found myself in medieval groups. Sure its not something historical to the United States but it taps into that European heritage a lot of us have. My family background is western Europe and welsh and Scandinavian. I encourage you if you feel like you are lost to try to find a medieval group near you. The people are the most open and least judgmental and are full of people of all shapes, sizes and life experiences that we all tap into to support one another.
❤
That is cringe stay away from Europe
I grew up strictly religious like Kai, and also have questioned feeling like I was alone, the only one who didn’t agree. I was so surprised to find other people like me! Writing helped me so much, this will forever be my fav group and music.
Writing is such a powerful channeling tool. Great to hear your found a healing path
I grew up Christian but had always questioned everything about it. I got tired of people judging me bc I wouldn't go to church and so on. I finally found my way to this kinds of stuff. It's helped me a lot
These people are so real. I simply love them.. They take me to a place i am also love.. They show me how to remember...
They really are something special :)
This brings a tear to my eye. Hail to the people of the old ways! Peace to all
Hail!
Thank you for this video that allows an insight on their previous lives. I feel lucky to have met them backstage of Castlefest 2017 where I was also playing, after their concert I was deeply emotional and even cried while they recited the elder futhark, that performance was legendary, a true portal to the otherworld opened during that concert. I was so supersized when Christopher and Maria said that was the first time they ever performed it like that, it felt that they were joking, but they were not. They are amazing and the world definitely need their healing powers.
Wow, such a cool story, thank you so much for sharing ❤️🔥
I saw them live and it was life changing, there were time's where I was moved to tears, truly an amazing experience.
Heilung is 🔥
Just found this band. It was Maria's outfit that caught my eye on CZcams, so I clicked on it and listened. WOW, this is like Kai's singing is taking every toxic thought, feeling and emotion from your soul and then you are transported like a baby to be cradled by Maria's voice of soothing angelic tones, one day I wish to see them for the experience, they are magnificent to say the least.
Such a treat to read your experience :) and yes, please go, we promise, it will be a once in a lifetime experience
It s so amazing to reconnect to our old roots
Odin calls, the ravens sing. It’s good to go back to the ways of our ancestors. Thank you for your music and true heathen spirit. The old ways return across the land x
Maria thought she was ugly? I love her and think she is beautiful.
She for sure is, but you know how people can be towards someone being better than them in a desired way.
@NorseFamily1 thank you for noticing and replying to my comment. It means a lot to me.
Breathtakingly beautiful in fact.. Her majestic voice draws you like a comforting warm fire in the dead of winter.
Interesting as this is, I feel you leave out the important fact that Maria and Christopher had been recording together as Euzen and doing some quite interesting stuff in video form for some years previously. And that Christopher had also been involved with a more grass roots electro-medieval project called Valravn, which Maria also guested with several times. Euzen even warmed up for Valravn on one tour of Denmark. Both those bands were very special. I miss the hell out of both of them.
The way this is presented makes it seem as if Kai and Christopher magically produced a career in music out of thin air, which was not the case. The Castlefest appearance would surely not have been possible if Euzen's appearance at the same festival a few years before hadn't been such a big success.
You could argue that point for sure. I am hoping to save that part for story of Maria or something :)
Well i mean she did say that kai had been doing music for 3 yrs prior
Thank you so much for this ! I love Heilung.
And thank you so much for the kind comment =)
I feel Blessed to have discovered your Music/Medicine!
I only wish to have discovered it much sooner!
Thank you for this video and your Music
I love this music, its in my heart
I think as I watch and listen to your content I’m learning more about myself and about my faith and practice. Thank you for sharing your experiences. This helps so many of us to strengthen our souls
💜🌒🌝🌘💜
And thank you for being the best possible version of you that you can be :)
Beatiful story Maria. I am of the old ones and wich you all greate in the future :-)
This was such a BEAUTIFUL video!! Am i the only one who thinks the narrator sounds like Maria herself? Lol
Haha, awesome to hear that. I will let Rebecca ( the wife and voice of the video) know. Really appreciate the kind words :)
I discovered Heilung 3yrs ago while searching for another medieval/pagan/shaman like band. Needless to say, I completely forgot that other band because Heilung is so amazing!!! The only medieval/pagan/whatever band that I think tops them is Corvus Corax but that doesn't make Heilung less of a band or less awesome.
Can't wait 21.9.2024 Amsterdam. 2nd time live.❤❤❤❤
We are sooo jelly
Love my Norwegian ancestors and all the sister Countries!
Skål for our ancestors and the north ❤️🍻!
The energy behind your sounds your luck your beat it drives me to you. It woke me up in the middle of the night almost I can’t explain it to where I must seek and find the beauty in this ritual for the Earth is the birthday cake and the wedding cake and we are at guides and guardians and we lost our way, thank you so much for reminding us all of us our way❤
I JUST "subscribed" to your CZcams Channel! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Heilung Lifa live! 🥰🤗💖 Skål! 😎🤘🏻🖤🍻
Heilung is pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
going to see them in concert in Australia later this year Can't wait!!!
That’s awesome :)
💜This story is highly emotional, Thank you💜
And thank you for both watching and such a kind comment :)
I also took the path with Kai. I read lots of books about Egypt and the Greek pantheon into Satanism in middle school. The myths are fun to read with the added benefit of seeing through the eyes of others. 🖤🍻⚔️
Some journey there, and yes the myths are 🔥
Excelente Saludos desde Córdoba Argentina*** Gracias.
and greetings to you! Always amazes me how many from South America are into Heilung :)
❤ you guys
Nicely done! Amazing to get such a view behind the curtains.
Glad you liked it:)
I have to echo Xaform on this. I can relate there, it was like one had no right to even try. I have been writing off and on and have taken to listening to Celtic music more. While I have sensed being pushed away from regular folk life. I know while they don’t want me I still have to live amongst them.
Life is very often about finding peace in the battle.
Didn't you post this a few years ago? I mean I love it lol
Yes. Last year. Had to restart the channel since a lot of cool music shorts were made is now considered duplicated content, and we couldn’t bring ourself to delete them. So we just kind of started over on a new channel with these videos and left the pure music stuff on the old one.
Nice
See you in DC the 17th!!
Maria is one of the most beautiful girls Ive ever seen hands down!
Big agree :)
Молодцы 👍👍👍
thank you i am
For a strange reason I feel new to Heilung. yet I've followed them for about 3 years I suppose. Ive been Pagan for years. Also a musician in rock bands and listened to various ethnic instruments. Heilung are not just an experimental sound. They like all brothers and sisters are part of my journey this time round. I live in the UK county of Essex. Which was once part of Danes law, These were my ancestors, Heilung brings me closer to them and the culture. Also gives me a deeper connection in many way. Heilung have created a sound that brings us all closer together. All Hail unto them,
Well said :)
I can relate to both Kai and Maria
Hopefully their story helped you heal
Who knows the soundtrack from the video? And what´s its name it´s the third time I´ve heard it it´s mesmerizing and I would like it as part of the music I listen to while trail running in the mountains where Kai was born, maybe he doesn´t remember it but we´ve met twice at the Hagebaumarkt years ago.
It’s some random music I buy from different sites :)
I am still annoyed that my favorite tattoo artist isn't working where he made my first tattoo xD I mean.... What if I ever can afford a new one? xD I guess I can take comfort in that he is in one of my favorite bands xD
Im jealous :(

Hmmmm…. There must be something there no? Or is it mainly in the northern parts?
SKAAALLLLLL
Skaaaal 🍻🔥
Wholesome
Can you make the same video in french, please ?
We sadly don’t master French :(
❤naak
Vikings were the firsr to claim me, yeqrs ago, I never understood why.
Do they have faith behind it, or is it just performative to reconstruct the past? No doubt music on and itself can be healing. But I wonder if the rest is just a costume to them or what's the story behind their outfits and performance.
I promise you, they are knee deep into it. Christopher was literally raised in a asatro home and Kai is a practicing shaman.
@@NorseFamily1 have they talked about their faith in public? If they're practicing a shamanistic religion of any kind, I feel it's a huge pity the majority of their fans will just know them as "Vikings" and nothing else.
@@Kotifilosofi Yes on multiple interviews you can find online, including youtube.
@@NorseFamily1 that's great! However, in that case, I find it depressing that the vast majority of people seem to know them as just "the Vikings" :/
GOD works in mysterious ways to guide us in the right direction.
I was raised to believe I was ugly (all my peers from kindergarten until graduation), and in a strict Christian no tv household too.
I’m 43 and now finding myself drawn to this way of life or existence with nature which always brought me peace. (Paganism, I guess, although I don’t label it). 😢
No need to label anything in life. There is an old saying: as soon as you know the name of a bird, you are unable to see it for what it is. Be natural first and foremost. Creating boxes is for other kind of people :) wish you all the best in your healing journey
Where is this Norse living thing they went to?
Different Viking markets in Scandinavia:)
At 5:27 I swear I see Amy Winehouse
