Guided Shamanic Drum Journey

Join us in circle for our weekly series in Shamanic Journeying!

Each week, we'll highlight a different element, intention, or theme, drawing its energy into our collective container to gain clarity, insight, and inspiration through different practices and techniques. We'll begin each evening with a guided meditation to help us drop into Sacred Space, followed by brief community sharing and a live facilitated Shamanic Drum Journey. We will offer suggestions for you to incorporate into your Journey, or if there's a specific energy or Intention you're already working with, you're welcome to Journey for whatever purpose will most serve you!

What is a Shamanic Journey?

A Shamanic Journey may include various different energetic and meditation techniques, breathing exercises, and other practices to help relax the body and mind so the individual may experience altered states of consciousness and awareness. Tapping into these dreamlike states of being, hovering between sleep and wakefulness, the journeyer is able to receive intuitive messages, insight, and perspective which may bring healing and emotional relief, inspire a sense of creativity, or offer practical ideas and solutions to everyday challenges. This is an especially helpful practice for those looking to develop deeper self-awareness, strengthen connection with guides and totems for support, or to simply relax, unwind, and soothe a frazzled or stressed nervous system. While some Shamanic Journeying practices may implement the use of different plant medicines to help achieve these altered states of consciousness, we rely soley on the vibration of the drum, using a steady, repetitive drumbeat to relax the mind and allow for the experience to unfold organically as the body's chemistry responds to the frequency created through the rhythm of the drum.

What to Bring:

- a cushion, pillow, and/or blanket to snuggle up with

- a journal and pen for reflecting

- water or other form of nourishing hydration

- a snack to share with the group (optional, though having a light snack following a journey may help you to ground into the physical plane and more readily integrate your experience)

- a white, unscented candle

- and if you're a student of ours, please bring your full altar kit with you

Please also dress in comfortable clothing - we recommend layers to help you adjust your temperature to your liking, especially since it's common for people to experience sudden waves of heat or cold during their journeys.
