Join Raye Andrews and Roxanne Lowery for the exciting experience of birthing your own drum and rattle in this 2.5 day workshop.
Birthing and creating both a personal sacred frame drum and rattle is a journey that is individually and spiritually meaningful.
Rattle birthing is a sacred experience that bridges the physical and spiritual worlds. It becomes an intentional creation. Birthing your own rattle is a sacred process that transforms a physical object into a living spiritual ally. Your rattle and drum will be infused with your specific dna, breath, and intention, creating a unique energetic resonance between the creator and the sacred spirit animal.
To birth a drum is to to create a lifetime companion that breathes with you and speaks for the parts of your soul that have no words. The drum symbolizes the heartbeat of Mother Earth, of life itself and the heartbeat of a community. It is not simply an instrument or art form, but a Spirit companion that grows with you helping you navigate altered states of consciousness and spiritual journeying. It assist you in cleansing, centering and focusing ones intentions for health and happiness. Drum Birthing is an honor, a meditation and a meaningful life long connection. Drum making is an honor, a meditation and a meaningful connection.
