Drumming Meditation

Guest article by Sourcerer

Begin by doing your favorite relaxation exercise for 5 minutes. Here is one I have found is incredibly simple and effective:
    Begin by visualizing a cloudless blue sky above you and a green field all around you. As you look into the distance you see something golden floating in the air. It's difficult to make out exactly what it is. Sometimes you see little wisps of gold floating off of the edges of this object. You can tell it is speeding up because it gets closer and closer at a much quicker rate than you would have expected something that far off to travel. Suddenly it is above you and you see a huge golden cloud above you. It's raining golden raindrops everywhere all round you and on you. As each drop hits you it feels warm on your skin and sends a feeling of deep relaxation through you. You feel the drops hitting you two and three at a time in different places on your body sending their warm relaxing energy through you. You are here for a few minutes with the golden rain feeling it's warm relaxing energy surrounding you with peace. Next you visualize a green cord coming from your second chakra and going deep into the earth. It emerges in a cave in the center of the earth where this is a crystal it attaches to. You ask the earth to send you its energy and it does. When you are ready open your eyes.
Using the energy of drumming requires:
  • Focus
  • Visualization
  • Intent
These three things can, when synchronized, with the rhythm of the energy you create when drumming, cause wonderful changes to happen all around you. Each tone the drum makes is a different vibration. Each vibration corresponds to an energy type. The nature of the combination of the tones and their rhythm and order all determine the type of energy you raise. Higher tones and faster rhythms attract and create more active types of energies to the drum and drummer. Specifically the drummers' hands are instilled with the same type of energy that the combination of tones their rhythm and their order attract and create.

Next: What to expect when visualizing
