Cycles & Rhythms
~an embodiment experience with drumming, meditation, journeying, and journaling~
A Rhythms of Wellness 2022 Series Workshop with The Women’s Drum Center
DESCRIPTION:
In today’s fast paced world with information readily available at our fingertips and the pressure to always be “on”, exhaustion and burnout are common while slowing down and resting are revolutionary. In this workshop, we’ll use the inspiration from the seasons, the moon cycle, and the steps of the creative process to explore, embody, and embrace our own natural rhythms and set some intentions for our creativity. Using the tools of drumming, breathwork, guided journeying, and journaling, we’ll tap into the beat of our own hearts and honor where we are in our lives at this moment in time (knowing our cycles can change!), so we can find deeper nourishment, clarity, restfulness, energy, and wisdom from within.
*Previous experience is not required and you do not need to have your own drum to participate in this exploration of cycles and rhythms.

WHAT TO BRING:
Your own drum or percussion instrument if you have one, a candle and lighter/matches, a journal, and something cozy for your meditation. For the breathwork meditation and journey portion, you can stay seated or you are invited to lay down, so cushions, blankets, yoga mats, bolsters, whatever feels supportive will be a great addition to your sacred space.
