Reiki Drum
Reiki Drumming is a unique healing modality that combines the soothing effects of sound waves from a drum with the restorative energy of Reiki. Here’s a brief overview of its key aspects:
​
-
Healing Through Sound: The Reiki drum technique uses the vibrations from a specially attuned drum to channel Reiki energy deeper into your energy field. This process promotes relaxation and alleviates stress.
​​
-
Historical Significance: Drumming has ancient roots in sacred and healing practices, making it one of the oldest known musical instruments. Its rhythmic nature is believed to be one of the earliest forms of meditation.
​​​
-
Mindfulness and Presence: The consistent rhythm of the drum helps quiet the conscious mind, reducing mental chatter. This allows individuals to let go of the past, embrace the present, and approach the future with confidence.
​​
-
Origin and Training: The Reiki Drum Technique was established by Michael Baird in 1999 in the USA and later introduced to the UK by Sarah Gregg in 2003.

It is designed to help overcome negative habits, focus the mind on important goals, or achieve specific aspirations. This technique empowers you to reframe your mindset and foster personal growth.

Each session is designed to provide unique benefits, fostering relaxation, clarity, and emotional well-being.
