Focusing on Love and Healing

Posted on | July 26, 2010 | 2 Comments

Drumming is known to provide a healing environment for people around the world.~Drum Circle Magazine “Heal the planet” event was about drumming to relieve the stress, sickness and worry over the Gulf Oil spill and focus on healing ourselves and our planet. People were encouraged to come out to the Gulf, area beaches and bodies of water to participate in drum circles with the purpose of healing. We joined a drum circle in Satellite Beach, everyone was welcoming and kind.  It was a wonderful, relaxing and peaceful evening.

“Healing relies on an openness to the whole; a willingness to relinquish whatever frustrates or delays — mistaken ideas, negative feelings, poor diet, inadvisable lifestyle — and to accept a wider spectrum of responses with new ideas, experience, and priorities. Healing is communication; and music, in its universal nature, is total communication. In the deepest mysteries of music are the inspirations, the pathways, and the healing which lead to one-ness and unity.”  Olivea Dewhurst-Maddock, Sound Therapy
