An On-Going Journey
DRUMMING IN SPIRIT
The Essence of Shamanism
What magick, what mystery might be found in the heartbeat of the drum, the rhythmic shake of the rattle?
For ages drumbeat and percussion have been used in rites of passage and celebration; for spiritual and psychic healing; to induce trance; lower or raise blood pressure and bring about altered states of consciousness.
Do you wish to drum the spiritual essence into your sacred space, enjoy the soothing meditative state of a guided meditation, experience the shamanic journey, or pulsations of the singing bowls?
Open to the inner you!
Expand your consciousness in this drum and chant circle.
