Wellness Drumming
Building mindfulness, health & wellbeing to the BEAT of the Drum!
When we drum together, we feel instantly connected, joyful and empowered.
A natural healer - rhythm and group drumming provide powerful health benefits and metaphors for living life that leave participants feeling positive, relaxed, rejuvenated, and inspired.
There’s a growing body of research on the therapeutic effects of group drumming.
Ground breaking studies show drumming benefits the immune system, stress levels and mood. It also shows that repetitive drumming changes brain wave activity, inducing a state of calm and focused awareness. In fact when we drum, we engage both hemispheres of our brain - simultaneously. The only other known ‘activity’ to do this is Meditation (done right).
But there’s no hit and miss with Drumming! Because, through rhythmic entrainment drummers learn to quiet the distraction, regain focus, and calm breath and mind. This promotes relaxation, a healthy mind, and a new pathway to social belonging while improving overall health and wellbeing.
So get off your devices and BANG a drum in our Mindfulness Drumming Workshops & Courses!
