When: Third Saturdays of the month from 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM.
Where: The Unitarian Church of Marlboro and Hudson, 80 Main St., Hudson, MA.
Why? …
Journeying
Shamanic journeying is a powerful practice that anyone can learn and use. Working in the spirit or energetic realm teaches us true freedom and self-empowerment.
In the spirit realm, we have access to other worlds. We connect with the energy that underlies the physical world, and receive guidance from our spirit guides and ancestors. Moreover, we gain the ability to heal ourselves at the deepest level.
Drumming
Shamanic drumming is both a healing art and a catalyst for shamanic journeying. Exploring how rhythm affects energy in the body is a big part of our practice.
At our gatherings, we explore both healing and journeying with rhythm. Participants are encouraged to bring a drum and/or rattle if they have one. Extra rhythm instruments will be available for those without.
