Rhythm, sound & the drum: supporting pregnancy & birth
There is mystery and power we can unlock through music and the drum that can invigorate our brains, open our hearts, and reawaken ancient wisdom. Pregnancy & birth is a time we can call upon and utilize this connection for the benefit of the next generation.
We know singing and dance in labor can open and hasten the birth process, and has been used for such since ancient times in some cultures. In pregnancy, music can also be very impactful. Sound can be used to entrain the brainwaves of a mother to give positive biofeedback to her baby and imprint the fetus to encourage a state of peace. If a woman is experiencing blocks, rhythm-healing can be used which employs specific rhythmic drumming patterns to influence someone’s internal rhythmic patterns and thus correct those which are ‘out of synch’ or causing illness.
In this workshop, we will have a sound meditation with intention to expand and clear our own connection to our womb & birth experience as well as co-create a rhythmic journey to explore our relationship with birth. Drum journeying is a wonderful technique that can be used to help the mother connect with her baby inside her, decrease her stress, as well as connect more deeply with her womb to prepare for birth. Research has shown that babies begin to hear music as early as 20 weeks in pregnancy, thus these drum practices benefit both mother and child.
