Where is lasting happiness? What you are here for? Is this it? Now what? Circles of Rhythm offers two ongoing opportunities to address, reflect and ponder these perplexing quesitons. The Friday Night Drum Circle and The Drum Lodge. 1. FRIDAY NIGHT DRUM CIRCLE I notice these days in people a sense of emptiness, a longing for purpose, a void, or a treadmill-like meaninglessness to their lives. In these times we tend to look for happiness or satisfaction through our jobs, kids, relationships, cars, houses, promotions, degrees, accomplishments, worldliness, travel adventures, fitness, our looks, diet etc. All these are worthy pursuits, but they all end, change, come with a degree of happiness, but also with a never ending cycle of pain, loss and suffering. I believe the deeper purpose for your life is three-fold. And when you discover and live from these principles, your job, relationships, health, etc will flow with more ease and grace. You will have pain without the suffering. 1. To be YOU, not me. A daisy doesn’t want to be a rose, it just “BE’S” a daisy! Discover and love your uniqueness. Every day ask yourself : “In this moment am I coming from my true nature of being a loving forgiving compassionate human, for myself, others and the world?” Live your life in a way that calls forth an expression of these aspects of who you really are! This all takes courage,support and practice! The drum circle is here to help! Our unique drum circles are living breathing examples of these three principles. Every week you have a chance to choose your instrument, and express yourself creatively with very little direction. You can be YOU, and at the same time be immersed in a beautiful kind loving community. You experience first-hand the kind of world/village we all long for. One which is safe and welcoming, respectful of our differences, where people are accepted for who they are with no judgement, and where we create an experience of harmony and joy together. No wonder people walk away feeling 100% better than when they walked in! SO, COME DRUM! 2. DRUM LODGE: Drums are provided, and we meet in silence. Tea and cookies served afterwards in the lounge for conversation and sharing of your experience. Saturday Feb 28, 7-9pm, more dates TBA |
