the rhythm of shamanism is a book that takes you into the wonder and the practice of the shamanic operator! The drum is the shaman’s vessel. It opens the gateways to be able to travel with the vibrations of creation to take your role as an empowered co-creator. Set out in two parts, Drum part one explains the significance and meaning of the shamanic frame drum. It presents the simple science behind the drum’s role in helping us to open up to different states of consciousness to work inside the rhythms of life. The cycles and the bodies of the sun, moon, earth and the artist are presented as major operators in a theatre of creation. Drum part two takes us into this theatre. It is written as a course. Linking with the thirteen moon cycles of the year and their corresponding trees,the course takes you through the initiatory cycle of an earth year. Working with the moon cycles and their seasonly themes and with the tree and its medicine as a guide, you bring focus and effective creative practices to life. It is in this way that you come to feel and understand the rhythm of shamanism. Drum is recommended for anyone who is looking to implement the practice of shamanism as a process for enabling healing and change; for anyone who is interested in deepening their knowledge and connection with the cycles of the moon and for those who are ready for a rich programme of creativity and nature knowledge seeking with the trees.
