Equinox Drum Circle – Donna Corso 4:00 – 5:00pm
September 22, 2024 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Drum Your Way to Health
An Equinox Tradition at CTC
If you thought beating on a drum was just making noise, think again! It’s been shown that there are many positive health benefits to drumming, not the least of which is stress reduction. Drumming releases endorphins in the brain which has been shown to help control chronic pain and create a general feeling of well-being.
Drumming can even help with fatigue, anxiety, asthma, arthritis, mental illness, addiction, depression, and more. It can boost your immune system, increase natural T-cells which can help the body combat viruses, even cancer.
Drumming also creates a deeper sense of connectedness with your own Spirit and with other like-minded people. As you flow with the Rhythm of Life by simply feeling the beat, it helps align your body and mind with the Natural World, helping to release negative emotions which can form energy blocks. Shamans use drumming as a way to access a higher power and to integrate mind, body and spirit.
Ready to try it? All are welcome to our quarterly Drum Circle at the Creative Thought Center (449 Pigeon St. Waynesville) every Equinox and Solstice. Bring your drum, rattle, or percussion instrument. No drum? Come anyway and feel the beat!
Next Drum Circle at Creative Thought Center: Fall Equinox (Sun, Sept 22, 4 – 5pm). Donations are appreciated. For information call Donna Corso 828-246-0279.
