Drumming for Personal Wellness and Creative Expression
Christine Stevens
WATCH VIDEO OF CHRISTINE STEVENS
Hands down (pun intended!), this drumming kit could change your life for the better. After working with the lovely little 10" hand drum, reading the 78-page spiral-bound book with its visual instructions and resources, drumming along with the two teaching CDs (each about 80 minutes long), and working with the 24 Rhythm cards provided, I have to say I am truly hooked on making drumming a part of my daily life -- which is exactly what Christine Stevens wants us to do. She wants us to drum every day for our health and well-being, and to gather with others in drum circles to build community and find freedom of creative expression and joy.
Indigenous peoples have always drummed in daily life, and we deprived ones of the Western world are now catching on to the incredible benefits and fun such practices can be. People who drum together get along together! Stevens tells us why and shows us step-by-step how to learn to drum at home, and how to create our own drumming circles if we want to share the joy of rhythm with others. One hour of drumming has been scientifically proven to enhance one's immune system, lower blood pressure, reduce stress, and help one get in touch with one's feelings. I loved learning all the different rhythms from around the world, like the Ayube from the Middle East and the Samba from Brazil. And I was surprised how easy it is to pick up the beats. Stevens says each one of us is a rhythmical being, and therefore, each one of us is a drummer. I have to agree! I highly recommend this kit to all.
