SOUND MEDICINE is kind of our thing.
AND DRUMMING IS REALLY OUR THING.
If you've ever felt the pulsing power of live music, that sweet rhythmic sound you can't help but move your body and spirit to...you probably know why.
There's just something about it, isn't there?
Something all at once wild, comforting, primordial, familiar...
CALLING US BACK TO THE FIRE, TO THE EARTH, TO WHOLENESS.
Like the beating heart, echoing and activating the same wisdom again and again, from within.
Used as a tool of connection since times immemorial,
woven into our consciousness through the music, stories, and traditions of cultures world-wide,
serving both to ground us into the physical plane and transport us between realms...
THE MEDICINE DRUM
Over the years, we've seen the rise and fall of many trends, tools, and miracle remedies for just about every symptom and scenario life might throw at you...
But after working with countless clients in the field of spiritual and holistic wellness, we've found time and time again - the real medicine lies in the simple, empowering practices you can weave into your everyday life.
​
And there are few tools as naturally powerful and supportive as the drum when it comes to healing, whether you're looking to access altered states of consciousness or just unwinding after a full day.
AND NOT ALL OF IT'S MUSIC
THERE'S A LOT OF NOISE OUT THERE
In fact, the drum is so instrumental to our wellbeing,
as a species, we were making music well before the advent of agriculture!
So while drumming may not be an essential part of your daily life yet,
the science-backed truth is that sound healing is in our blood,
and has played a vital role in our collective evolution.
​
Like the steady heartbeat we heard in our mother's womb,
the song of the drum guides us back to Source, helping us to restore balance, to rekindle our connection to the Mother, to the Earth,
and perhaps most importantly - to our purpose here.
FOR THOSE WHO LIKE TO GEEK OUT ON THE FACTS
healing truths
HERE ARE A FEW

3
Drumming can help repair and retrain the brain after neurological damage or impairment, generating new neural connections which support higher learning and cognitive function.
and that's not all
THE DRUM ALSO HELPS US ACCESS AND UNLOCK STAGNANT ENERGY IN THE BODY,
encouraging healthy circulation and reducing inflammation,
AND IS A WONDERFUL TOOL TO SOOTHE A BUSY OR OVERACTIVE MIND,
making it especially helpful for those who struggle to settle down, stay focused,
or feel comfortable during meditation, self-reflection, or moments of stillness.
Played for nearly every purpose imaginable...
from entertainment and celebration, to processing grief and carrying our prayers across the enters, the voice of the drum is a profound guide and teacher, helping us nurture connection to not only the Self and one another, but to the vibration of our Ancestors, allowing us to access and emote our deepest feelings and collective memories.
HOW OFTEN DID THEY SING THEIR STORIES WITH THE DRUM?
How often did they pray for us? For the health and prosperity of their children?
And how today, may we honor them - not just the human lineage before us, but all our relations?
We seek to nourish and uphold this unique and intimate form of Sound Medicine by honoring our original teachers and companions, the Plant and Animal Spirits, the way our Ancestors did - through music.
