Course Description

In this four-part audio course, best-selling author Michael Drake teaches about the power of shamanic drumming to improve well-being, promote spiritual growth and deepen our understanding of the inner self. Shamanic drumming is a form of repetitive rhythmic drumming. Its purpose is to induce ecstatic trance states in order to access innate wisdom and guidance. The essence of shamanism is the experience of direct revelation from within. Shamanism is about remembering, exploring and developing the true self. Shamanic practice heightens the ability of perception and enables you to see into the deeper realms of the self. Once connected with your inner self, you can find help, healing and a continual source of guidance. To practice shamanism is to reconnect with your deepest core values and your highest vision of who you are and why you are here.

Drawing from 30 years of shamanic practice and teaching, Michael presents the first practical guide to applying this ancient healing art to our modern lives. Through a series of simple lessons and exercises, he teaches the basic shamanic methods of drumming, journeying, power practice and healing the earth. You will learn how to alter your state of consciousness to access higher wisdom, renewed power and untapped insight. There are no prerequisites to learning shamanic drumming. Whether you are an accomplished percussionist or a total beginner, this course will help you harness the power of drumming. You can listen to the introduction and read the course outline here.

When we get crazy, we use skills and repair the crazy.

Anger is a valid emotion. It tells us to protect ourselves, that something is hurting or harming us. It’s valid, it’s useful. It motivates us to make change. But when used to fuel actions it can be incredibly destructive.

I should be focusing on my assessment for tomorrow, but this feels more important. Repairing and rebuilding always feels more important. So tonight now needs to be for repair and rebuild. And also dealing with the shame of it all.

Repair… Apologising for how awful I was.

Rebuild… Grounding and rebuilding my (healthy) defences. A thicker skin so that everything feels less like an attack or less like it’s setting my skin on fire. Self-care and compassion - this was an emotional situation. I did the best I could. I also need to try harder. I need to be better.

Starting with some mindfulness and reflection…

I don’t want to be this person ever again.
