Feng Shui is not just about establishing a harmonious home environment, it also encourages healthy lifestyle changes that raise your vibration mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. One of my personal favorite ways to do this is by attending drum circles!

With the world in constant flux these days, drum circles seem to be one of the best ways to bring people together from all walks of life. The illusion of separation melts away and the inner child of each person emerges with immense curiosity, playfulness, and joy.

Drum circles allow people to reinvest in community gatherings, create healing sounds, communicate, and simply be present with each other and their surroundings. In today’s modern world, drum circles are considered a wonderful healing tool to help reduce stress and anxiety, improve mood, provide an inclusive atmosphere, and offer a safe space for self-expression. What’s also interesting about drum circles, is each circle always provides a unique rhythm depending on who shows up to play, which helps keep drummers flexible and adaptable, helping to refine deep listening skills. I find this serves as a great metaphor for life.

If you would like to join the Long Island NY Drum Circle community, please do! You can find scheduled Drum Circle events by visiting the Hand Drummers of Long Island, NY Facebook Page. There are various drum circles hosted all over Long Island NY, which include Long Beach, Robert Moses Beach, Sunken Meadow Beach, Port Jefferson Village, Venetian Shores Beach, and South Hampton, to name a few locations, and New York City at Village Zendo.

Most drum circles are free, however, it’s best to double-check as some drum circles may require a fee or a suggested donation. If you have your own drum, bring it along! Most circles tend to have some extra instruments to share, but if you are someone who plans on attending drum circles often, it’s worth investing in your own drum.

We look forward to jamming with you!
