Shamanic Drum Journey & Drumming Circle Fri 7-9pm 28th Aug, 25th Sept, 29th Oct

We will have an opening circle, a short introduction before I drum for you, while you go on two Shamanic Drum Journey’s. Drum journeying is a beautiful way to connect with your imagination, your visual, felt, intuitive and known senses. A place to meet with Spirit Guides, Power Animals, Allies and much more. A place to receive healing and rest, a place to soften into your being. A place to receive wisdom and guidance. Or, you may just snooze and rest your nervous system. All of you is so welcome here, just as you are, just as you are feeling.

There will be time after each journey to chat and share experiences, share snacks, journal and pull oracle cards, or simply rest.

We will then drum together in circle, allow ourselves to surrender to the hum and song of the drums, before we close our circle. All welcome, no experience needed, drums available to borrow.

Private space Nr Nesscliffe, with easy access off the A5 from both Shrewsbury and Oswestry. Free, secure and private parking. Max 5 spaces, for a cosy circle. Exchange is £22 - Booking link https://whisperscharlie.as.me/?appointmentType=93712489 or email - whisperscharlie27@gmail.com to book.

A Meadow, Drum Journey Gathering Sun 23rd Aug 1.45-5pm

Out on the land, with nature. We gather in the meadow, open our circle, open our senses. Take some time to connect with the land and nature with a sit spot practice. We may notice how Buzzard soars and rides the thermals in effortless circles, or how Willow sounds in the breeze. We will gather back together while I drum a couple of drum journeys for you, allow my drum to take your hand and lead you on a journey to the Spirit of Buzzard or Meadowsweet or Willow or whoever you wish, for their wisdom, their magic.

Drum journeying outside, with your back to the earth, with nature is true dreaming awake, a rich and deeply beautiful experience.

We'll have a sharing circle and marshmallows around the fire-pit, snacks provided and the bell tent is up, so no matter what the weather we can enjoy this experience, the weather always tends to be what is needed, and brings her own magic!

There is a compost loo. The meadow is a short and beautiful walk from the parking/ meeting place so we meet at 1.45pm to walk together. Booking https://whisperscharlie.as.me/?appointmentType=96568264

Fri 11th September -Shamanic Drum Journey Evening at Treflach Farm, Oswestry 6.30- 8pm Exchange £15

Come and let the drum take you on a journey. The beating drum can shift your state of consciousness, and allow you access to the invisible realms, the other worlds, your inner landscape. The drum can allow you to dance and delight in your child like imagination. Take the hand of your curiosity and seek out the wisdom, beauty, knowledge of what lies beyond the physical.

Connect with your Spirit Guide, or your Power Animal or explore your Other Worlds. We will be working with intentions, so you may like to bring your own intentions to journey with, or work with the intention I offer.

The drum can allow you deep rest, healing and an opportunity for your nervous system to rest and reset also.

There will be a short introduction, opening the space, welcoming all of us, as we are before I drum two 15 minute journeys for you. There will be a short break in-between each journey to allow time to journal and reflect, you may wish to come and chat with me or ask a question, there will be a selection of Oracle Cards, if you wish to gain more clarity, or ask a question after your journeys.

No experience is needed, I will guide you. Just come as you are, however you are feeling and bring your imagination and curiosity with you!

All welcome.

For our first two weeks in September we will be working with Drum’s spirit, learning about how drum holds stories of the creature from which the hide belongs, elements, weather, the paths travelled on hoof and in herd weave a special magic through drum. The tree spirit of the tree whom your hoop belongs to, their stories of root and branch, bird and badger. We’ll be connecting deeply with the character, unique magic and voice of drum. Through journeying, learning how to drum a journey for yourself, your own drumming rhythm for your healing and well being, the healing power of drum how to clear space with your drum. For our second week in April we will explore how it feels to drum in circle around the fire pit out on the land -weather permitting.

For our two weeks in October we will be learning how you drum journey, in your own, special and unique way. How you dance into your inner landscape, your imaginal realms. We’ll be exploring how we use the power of setting intentions for drum journeys, meeting your Power Animal and/or Animal allies and helpers. We’ll be exploring how you journey, whether you are a sensory traveler, intuitive, visual, or absolutely anything else! We’ll then look at how you transcribe your journey, how you interpret, and whether you like to journal, sketch, write poetry or dream on your experiences. There is no wrong way, we will be going slow and being curious.
