Thank you for following the guidance of your heart.
These are very strong times we are in and we are all being grown beyond our comprehension. The best way I have found to integrate transformation is through the power of creativity, music/dance and ritual.
This is an opportunity to deepen your personal and collective healing and enhance your innate gift as a technician of sacred sound and reclaim these essential instruments in the spiritual legacy of Humanity.
​
The art of drumming is finally making its way into the health and wellness revolution. Over the last decade research involving the neurobiological underpinnings of drumming has seen tremendous growth.
Numerous studies have shown that all types of drumming can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and enhance your immunity. Research involving group drumming added to the list by providing evidence showing it can be used to reduce blood pressure, cortisol and provide relief from chronic pain conditions.
REMEMBER - RECLAIM - RESURRECT - REVERE
The Medicine Drum is a remarkable spiritual technology that enables us to connect with our True Nature, the Elements, Great Spirit & the Heart of Gaia. It has been used throughout time & across many cultures /traditions to align with the spirit realms & harness the healing power of natural sound vibrations.
The Witches Drum would help attain altered states of consciousness, to contact the dead, communicate with the gods, receive higher guidance, call upon the healing spirit and see into the future.
With the help of a rattle, we can summon the spirits we are in contact with in the animal, plant and mineral realms as well as elemental intelligence, our personal guides, guardians, protectors, the angels and our ancestors.
All these benevolent spirits exist - all we need to do is call upon them and request their guidance, co-operation and support.
