Deerheart : follow your path.
This drum will be the newest addition to our Friday Night Drum Circles, making its first appearance TONIGHT.
It was painted by the talented @wendydudleyart who has been an absolute gift to Circles of Rhythm. We have many drums that have been hand painted by Wendy.
This drum in particular has a deer, representing the Axis Mundi, as it becomes tree, its antlers with leaves, reaching skyward. The sunflower becomes the Sun, which gifts light to its sibling, the Moon. The rainbow is the bridge between the worlds, and hummingbird drops by with its blessings and prayers of Joy. And white lilies of Hope. The deer tracks around the rim are both buck and doe, the balance of feminine and masculine. The deer itself has the expression of a doe, with the antlers turning into branches becoming the masculine.
Deer is a compassionate being, recognized by various cultures as a fellow being who sacrifices itself for the greater good. It often represents Ascension.
• Painted drums carry a voice unique to their owner, but the voices of all drums sing together, connected through vibration for collective healing •

"Drumming entered my world at a period of time when everything I knew had dissappeared overnight. I was struggling with complexPTSD, suicidal episodes and needed to rebuild my entire world from the ground up. From my every first night at the drum circle something resonated deeply with me. The people are amazingly warm, welcoming and kind. They have become my new family. Drumming itself has changed my neurological world so much my doctor now prescribes it to others dealing with anxiety, stress and PTSD. My neurologist says it has helped rebuild broken neuro pathways and we both feel my blood pressure and general well being has changed dramatically for the better. The best part though is the level of energy and happiness I receive when I drum. The world is a better place with my regular drumming night shared with all the great people I have met along the way.
It will always be a part of my future."

We at Circles of Rhythm hope you set the intention and make time everyday to celebrate and share in the JOY of family & friends and acknowledge that it is a privilege to see another year, to have community and to have love and life. I am so grateful for the gift of this #NativeFlute from @HighSpiritsFlutes and this #ShrutiBox from @KalaKendarMusic . These are new tools I am excited to bring to our upcoming circles & workshops. One of my intentions for the new year is to continue to grow and blossom as a facilitator, while digging deeper in my own personal healing journey. ⠀

Did you know drum circles provide an opportunity for people to feel connected with others and gain a sense of interpersonal support. A drum circle provides an opportunity to connect with your own spirit at a deeper level. Group drumming alleviates self-centeredness, isolation and alienation. There so many great benefits to feeling connected to others.
We encourage you to get into community and join us Friday nights, 7pm @ the Inglewood Community Hall.

See you there!

“All things have a beginning middle and end.... I have made the decision to embark onto some new horizons and will be parting ways as a facilitator for Circles Of Rhythm” @Jamie_letsriseup 🥳🤩😭😳🤗😩🥺 .
All the feelers are going on right now. .
🥳 Excitement for what’s to come!! Jamie has spent a long time preparing and creating what’s next for her in this beautiful journey. We are behind her 💯 and wish to shower her with so much encouragement and LOVE!
.
🤩 Pure JOY and celebration for Jamie Gore, an amazing facilitator and friend of Circles Of Rhythm. Taking a step like this is not an easy one - but for those who are lucky enough to know Jamie - she is a star. Her natural light and gifts will pave the way to greatness. Spreading love to all who encounter her.
.
😭 A deep sadness for the loss of this ROCK in our community... your presence cannot be replaced by another. Seriously, a loss - but we get it! .
😳 Surprise and a huge sense of “what now!!??” Jamie filled a huge role within Circles of Rhythm, so much so that we will be needing to make some significant changes as an organization to account for the diversity of needs Jamie was able to nourish and roles occupied as our Key CoR Master ICDC Facilitator, Teacher, Support, and Friend. .
🤗😩🥺 - the list goes on...... point is..... WE LOVE YOU JAMIE AND COULDN’T BE HAPPIER FOR YOU!!
.
Jamie expresses that she wishes to explore her gifts and talents and discover new ways in which she can serve the world! Two years ago she asked the question. ‘Am I fulfilling my purpose in this life?’ The answer came.... “Well It starts with drumming” Now she is ready to discover what is next for her.
After ten years of facilitating drum circles she has decided she wants to find what the next step of life has to hold for her. .
Join us in celebrating Jamie’s example of “taking a leap of faith” into the unknown - leaning into the discomfort of the “unknown”.... and trusting that her gifts will guide the way. .
We will host a special night to celebrate Jamie Gore on March 27th at our regular Friday Night Drum Circle at the Inglewood Community Hall from 7-9. Come and give her a proper send off!!

Do you ever seek solitude? Silence?
I do.
Sometimes to a detriment, I crave solace in solitude.... sometimes pushing people away, without even being conscious of what I am doing. What I am seeking.
I took a drive - it lead me to a path - I grabbed my @highspiritsflutes and my sage. I walked down that path. Following the footsteps of another made me feel like I wasn’t alone. It gave me confidence that I wouldn’t lose my way. Then, I found this rock - all other rocks and logs up until this point were covered in snow, but this rock was dry, as though it was placed for me to rest - and then, after a prayer , I allowed myself to play - silence the noise of my worst enemy - calming my mind.
What I like about the native flute is that it requires me to breathe. Deep inhales...... and then, a slow steady release.... exhaling a song from deep inside of me. Giving my breath (an intimate part of me, one who always feels what’s happening on the inside) a voice carrying out a message on the outside.

I paused for a while, almost ready to leave, but something called me to capture this lesson for myself to remember in the future. It’s ok to take what you need. Time alone. Time in silence. Time to pray.
Now the real lesson for me is to learn how to take these moments without pushing others away. I need to learn my real voice. The one that others understand. No one can read my mind. Not even me sometimes. So here is my lesson for 2020. Sit. Feel. Be curious. Take a risk. Speak.
