The Spirit of your Drum
Welcoming Ceremony and Workshop

If you have bought or made a drum, or use one that has been around your home without a real purpose:  this workshop may be just right for you: We will welcome the drum spirit and connect it to the community of the other drums. This turns your drum from a musical instrument into a shamanic tool.
We start with a drum-welcoming ceremony.  You then do shamanic journey work to create or strengthen your relationship with the spirit of the drum and use it for healing work and guidance.

You need solid shamanic journey skills to attend this workshop, and a good relationship to a spirit ally (such as a power animal or teacher). Please bring your own drum.

This workshop is part of the Series:

Shamanic Pathways for Every Day

Learning shamanic skills and walking the path of the Medicine Wheel will give you direct access to the wisdom of the universe, the sacred aspects in everything and the essence in yourself. These practices will develop your ability to find guidance, healing and transformation power in your unique way.

For the advanced workshops in this area, you must have good shamanic journey skills and a solid relationship to at least one power animal or spirit guide. You can gain these skills in the basic workshop described below, or you can talk to me about other pre-work you did.
