Drumming for healing with a purpose
This is the final Meditation In Rhythm video in this series
What would it mean to you to have a daily practice of playing healing rhythms with music that’s been created for the purpose of healing? Imagine waking up in the morning, feeling refreshed, inspired for the day ahead. What would your day look like… just take a moment to visualize this.
My hope is for you to learn and gain the benefits from Meditation in Rhythm series. Drumming for healing with the purpose for self-development, spiritual growth and personal wellbeing. In today’s video we come to the finale of the video series, by adding three healing rhythms that I have taught throughout this series. Together they create a sweet healing percussion song, featuring the shamanic drum rhythm, African djembe rhythm and kpanlogo rhythm.
I’ve chosen just a few healing drum rhythms from Meditation In Rhythm workbook, to give some examples of how these rhythms can be played and create high vibrational energy to sooth the nervous system - there are many more rhythms within the workbook and on the student drum resources page.
I also wanted to offer some more value for you in this video series. I came up with a short rhythmical break that is fun to play and bring some rhythmical diversity to the healing music play along.
Not only can you play these rhythms on your own with the play-along healing song, but also all these rhythms can be used in group settings such as music therapy, healing circles, classroom music-making and those who work in counseling and use drumming as a tool for nonverbal communication.
Healing Music as contribution for health and wellbeing
As the world continues to change at a rapid pace, it’s never more important than right now to take care of our health and wellbeing. As a certified sound healer, I see clients that are in distress, living in chaos and feel bleak about their future.
Many of us leave our health on the back burner until life gets too difficult and we struggle with physical issues, relationships and mental health.
There are ways we can manage our health and wellbeing; this means effort and self-care… yes? Aren’t you worth it!? Would you like to try something? Take time out for a day or even half the day with no distractions, meaning no social media, TV, radio, children, partners, just being with yourself.
Sit down and write a letter to yourself. Just imagine you the Mother listening to your inner child. No judgement just seeing through the eyes of pure love and acceptance. Just imagine what learnings can be gained from this experience of time out with our self. Maybe find what we’ve been searching for?
I wonder… is the beginning of pain, just an absence of love (not romantic love), whether being physical pain or emotion pain?
Shift energy with Healing rhythms
I’ve mentioned many times on my blog, that our thoughts are energy… yes? This energy can be absorbed, stored, locked or be as blocked energy within the body (result as pain). We have over 60,000 thoughts a day… wow! Our body is an amazing instrument and this instrument is being fueled by energy (thoughts).
If you are on a quest for healing and transformation, energy work is a great place to start. By including sound healing and healing rhythms, just like Meditation In Rhythm and daily meditation we can begin to shift those thoughts of “I’m Not Enough”, I’m Not Worthy”, “I’m Not Likeable”, … etc.
When we change the world changes…
We can see our self through the eyes of acceptance, as a uniquely gifted spirit and with gratitude. All of this comes to one point – Self Love. Shift from self-criticism to one of self-care and respect.
By choosing drum therapy affirmations with personal healing, we can do inner work on our self by custom creating healing drum rhythms for personal growth and care and be really creative at the same time.
Music is such a healer
I want to share an experience with you I had just this week. I heard that one of my favourite singers who had passed suddenly. I didn’t want to go to that place of sadness, which for me can cause a ripple effect for the rest of the day. I decided to pop on some music from my favourite female singer that I loved listening to way back in the 90s (ooopps… showing my age 😉).
I wacked up the volume (which I never do these days – as a producer not good for the ears), like really loud! And sang along and danced to the music in my living room. It felt SO good!
I could feel the unwanted energy just being released and flicked off the body with each dance move. Actually, I felt fantastic and I turned my thoughts to one of gratitude of her beautiful music she had gifted to the world.
Special limited addition of healing music and rhythms
I’ve spent the past few weeks working on creating videos for Meditation In Rhythm series and with this I was inspired to create new audio recording versions of the play along healing music with singing bowls and sound therapy instruments, especially for this series.
It dawned on my yesterday to add a special limited addition of Meditation In Rhythm. I’d spent a lot of time mixing, composing and mastering the new healing drum play along track versions for the series. So, I decided to create add a special workbook of all healing rhythms from the series, plus more, and I wanted to share this news with you know.
You can check out the special limited addition of Meditation In Rhythm and have your own copy of workbook plus high quality mp3 healing song versions, which you don’t receive on YouTube. The only high quality music versions are through my website here at Positive Music or Bandcamp.
I’m going to open up the portal for only 5 days and access to all new healing music version and new workbook from this special addition.
Thanks so much for your love and support, it means a lot and inspires me to continue helping people like you.
