These beautiful monthly gatherings have been happening now since May 2017 but with a break in 2021. ♥

WHERE: Saxon Hall, Putson Community Centre, off Hoarwithy Road, Hereford. We will be in the small hall.

 

TIME: 19:00 - 20:30

FULL DETAILS BELOW. PLEASE READ IN ITS ENTIRETY

Please note that my circles have a strong element of humour and fun.

Drumming has proven health benefits as many of you know. It can improve your mental health, your well being, reduce stress levels and so on. It is also a powerful way to ground ourselves and with the current energetic climate that is important more than ever. No experience is necessary, almost anyone* can have a go, we all find our own rhythm, the drum is like the heart beat, connect to your heart beat and you find a rhythm :-)

We will be:

Connecting to our heartbeat and to the Universal heartbeat of love.

Drumming.

Singing/chanting.

Putting our intentions and prayers up.

Space for integration and silence which is as an important a vibration as the music we will create.

Socialising.

Unwinding.

 

So, I invite you to join us in a celebration of the winter, the dark space to go inwards and to drum and sing our innner world outward. To celebrate ourselves and to come together in communion with each other and the world and leave what we do not wish to take forward with us in the flames of the candles and to create what we wish to take forward on the notes and vibration of our voices and instruments. Fire is cleansing, deeply cathartic, healing and primal. Music is the same.

A chance to unwind, to sit quietly and to dance and sing and drum or play another instrument. This will be a chance to go inwards and outwards and hopefully happen on a monthly basis.

The evening starts with a grounding meditation which may include flute and channelled vocals. There are quiet spaces where we can absorb the energies created and be still, thereby integrating everything. I would like us to set intentions at each meeting and we also drum to send out healing as well. The singing or chanting is not obligatory but voice work is incredibly powerful, so I encourage this :-) No fear! I said encourage not expect or enforce lol :-) ♥ but we mostly drum freestyle, and most of us know how that goes, so come prepared for high energy too.

I want it to be open to anybody that wants to come (without the specified health issues, see the bottom of the page) and contribute and let's have fun..
