Drumming Up Good Feelings

Share This

Group drumming provides an opportunity to connect with others, alleviating feelings of isolation. This ancient approach to healing uses rhythm to create feelings of well-being. It is known to induce deep relaxation, lower blood pressure, and reduce stress. This week at Juniper Village at Mount Joy we took to the halls, drumsticks in hand and made a joyful noise. Focusing on various rhythmic patterns defined by each participant we beat the blues and filled the air with the sound of self-expression. Give it a try at home! Don’t have a drum or stick? Not to worry, all you need is a box and a wooden spoon. Make some noise for well-being!
