drum healing at the beach


yesterday i went to stand in the water and drum for healing...the moontide was very low...the water was rocky and there were many periwinkles (small snail-like creatures who cling to the rocks)...i took off my shoes and waded in...standing on the other side of the large rock...knee deep...


as i drummed i closed my eyes and focused in on the light that shined through my eyelids...this light i added to the sound of the drumbeat...and placed this sound upon the face on the water lapping up against my legs...

i felt the shift...the moment of connection with this great ocean of healing...it is within us all...it is around us...it is everywhere unseen...and i took from that ocean endless ribbons of healing and sent them out to everyone...letting their higher selves know it was there...there in an attainable way whenever they needed it...to ease their suffering...whether it was suffering in the mind or body...if they felt disconnected from spirit i offered the healing ribbons of light as a re-connection...whatever part of the body needed a physical healing the ribbons of soothing light wrapped themselves around it...if they faced hardship and didnt know what to do i offered ribbons charged with clarity...if they felt lonely i offered ribbons of comfort and companionship...and so the drumming went on...time was removed...i drummed until i felt the world around me was saturated and sending out these countless ribbons of calm healing light to all who needed it...

as i came back to myself and turned around i heard teenagers and realized a busload had come while i was busy drumming...as i put on my shoes a couple of them came up to me and were curious...as i talked to them others came until i was surrounded by the curious crowd of young people...gladly i explained to them what i was doing and why...a couple even took the drum i offered and had at it...

so the fear i had of being seen while drumming was gone...and it wouldnt have been if i hadnt moved away from my fears and stepped out into the day to drum...lesson number?...i have lost count at this point...but a very good lesson and a blaring example of what fear holds us back from doing and robs others of experiencing as well...

be brave today...do something you have been afraid to do...
