Those who follow my podcast will know that often in OBEs I just can’t resist throwing off my clothes and dancing, sometimes to upbeat music, other times gracefully moving to slower vibes in flowing white attire. It feels so good and I believe related to self-expression and just simply letting the body, or energy body move as it wishes. Sound is healing whether we are dancing, playing an instrument or listening, sound and rhythm can take us places beyond the physical Earth.
For a while now I have been working with sound, to induce OBEs with isochronic tones and chanting and plus I’ve been working with various instruments combined with Reiki to promote wellbeing. However, this summer I took everything a step further and participated in a 6 day Drum Circle Facilitator course, it was amazing and I experienced the power of the drums to bring people together in harmony. To tell you the truth I don’t even remember how I found the event but once I was on the page, I knew I had to do it, there were just too many synchronicities involved.
In the astral I have seen too much suffering, I feel the astral is like a copy of the thoughts and emotions of humanity so even if there is a lot of beauty there the opposite is also true. So as much as I try to help people in the astral, I would like to start to translate this effort also to the physical plane and I would like to do so by lifting them up through enjoyment, through allowing people to reconnect with their rhythm.
Misson Statement
I seek to encourage people to enjoy themselves through rhythm. I think often we forget to enjoy ourselves; we are so involved in everyday life and events of the world that we neglect a part of us that always lives in the moment and wishes to enjoy that moment.
I seek to enable people to reconnect with their own rhythm. I feel we have become disconnected with who we truly are, we live our lives externally, rarely going inward to discover our inner treasures. We are out of sync with our own rhythm which influences our health and wellbeing.
I seek to enable people to reconnect with the rhythm of nature. Just as we are disconnected with the joys of who we truly are, so we have disconnected with nature and its rhythm. We are a part of nature and reconnecting with that part of who we are will contribute to our own health and wellbeing.
I seek to enable people to reconnect with the rhythm of humanity. We are all part of the great human family, yet we consistently create separation and division among us. One human being alone may not be able to change the world, but all humanity together is an enormous light in our Universe. Reconnecting to the collective rhythm of our true selves will lift humanity up, out of the chaos we presently find ourselves in.
Of course, my astral projection presence in the world will continue, it has become a part of me, there’s no way I would ever give that up. The men in white coats would have to lock me up first.
Over the summer I have been collecting some instruments for my new project, a few second-hand drums and a wide array of percussion instruments, also used in drum circles to add to the quality of the music. However, now I find myself in the position where I need a few bigger, bass drums, the kind that nest inside each other. These are light and easy to carry and as at the moment I am a ‘one man band’, there’s no way I would be able to load and unload heavy djembes for example.
Enjoyment – Wellbeing – Empathy
Funds are a bit low so I thought I could record my book Astral Dancer and give it as a gift to people who donate to my drum fund. Once I have enough drums I will use funds for general website/podcast maintenance as well as drum maintenance (they do tend to get a bit of a battering lol) Recording the book wasn’t an easy task I did it all in one day which was exhausting in itself, but it was the editing that really took a lot of time. I had to use an AI voice for Danny, (Danny is another me (another life), we wrote the first part of the book together), I investigated the possibility of paying someone but it worked out too expensive, however AI voices have improved a lot and Danny sounds OK.
So this is the story and mission behind my request for donations, thank you in advance and I hope you enjoy listening to Astral Dancer.
