The womb and the drum belong together.
Last night I held a womb healing session for one of my returning clients, and soon after the beat began we were drawn into the sleepy, honey dream world of the womb.
It isn't always this way, but for the woman who has grown comfortable with journeying she slips into womb consciousness and takes me with her.
When I work one to one with women, you can get a sense of where they are in their journey. Much like the sacred triangle of the birth space - mother, partner, doula. In womb healing we have the woman, the healer and the drum. The drum responds to moments of hesitation, cathartic releases, it can support them to move through difficult feelings that may arise.
Drumming is and has always been a woman's modality and we need it now more than ever. As our brains take in more information every day than they ever have. We don't need to develop a meditation practice before we can find healing.
The drumbeat fills the busy mind so the spirit and the body can find respite and receive messages from the womb. Messages from the lineage of our motherline, from lives past, as Perdita Finn calls it "the long story of our soul".
We are brought back into womb consciousness like the baby hearing the rushing of the mother's blood, the inflating of her lungs, her heartbeat.
I offer my shamanic womb healing sessions virtually and you are also able to access my online courses Sacred Womb Journeys and The Medicine Wheel of the Womb.
