Thank you for your comment.

Good to know! I was lead to buy one today 😊 Created a video about this but it won't be released until later next month. Excited to get started! Fabulous that it has transformed your life! 💛

Glad it was helpful!

You are so welcome!

My pleasure!

Thanks for your question. In Melinda Maxfield's (1990) dissertation Journey of the Drum, laboratory research was done to find the pattern of beats per second that had the best results in inducing a non-ordinary state. A pattern of approximately 4 to 4 1/2 beats per second, "showed varying degrees of increased theta during shamanic drumming" (Maxfield,1990 p 9 ). Eight of the twelve participants in the laboratory research study experienced a shift in ordinary reality into the non-ordinary with the use of the synthesized drum beat technique. Drumming, like music, can help people delve deeper into themselves without the need for talkt herapy (Maxfield, 1990). Looking back, "in ancient Greece both Plato and Aristotle ascribed curative power to certain melodies" (Walsh, 2007, p. 211). Drumming can be a helpful way to pull oneself into a non-ordinary state, reaching deeper meditative levels. Dr. Arrien believed,"when we embark on such a journey, we open ourselves to the possibility of removing blocks and obstacles to receiving love and giving love" (1993, p 57). Maxwell's (1990) research found that journeywork combined with drumming may have been an ancient form of stress reduction and technique for entering into an altered state. www.academia.edu/9267398/Psychology_of_Shamanism_The_Transformative_and_Restorative

​@@rhythmbliss2997Thanks for the video and additional info 😊🙏 I'm excited to receive my first vegan frame drum. I plan on painting it. I intuitively was tapping below my collar bone while having a mini panic attack. This was at a rate of about 4 bpm I released painful emotions as I gave myself unconditional love affirmations. Shortly after this I thought "Perhaps I should buy a drum? Two days later I ordered my drum, purchased two mallets and also some sage. Let the journey begin! ❤

Yes, you are right
