The Healing Drum
If you can't beat them, beat it!

In the past few years, the popularity of drumming has increased in leaps and bounds. Men's groups, women's groups, belly dancing, tribal functions and the like have all come to the plate as sound methods (pun intended) for connecting with one's deeper self and with others.
Drumming, to me, is Sacred. Life is rhythm itself. From the rotation of the Earth, stars and planets to the beating of our hearts. It is the one sign of Life that can never be mistaken!
To drum alone, on a beach, in the park, near a construction site or by a river, is a pleasure that I have found no equal for, yet.
Drumming in a circle of friends is a bonding experience that transcends the common boundaries of social activity. It soothes the spirit and brings us to a fundamental state of being that has been a part and tradition of human culture for many thousands of years.
Drumming is very therapuetic, as well. Both sides of the brain and nervous system working together to produce a unified sound. This can only bring balance and healing to anyone that finds the time, energy and incentive to do it.
So, do it!
Drum, and be healed!
love
