The Circle at Community Crossing, Bayonne, NJ
Date: Monday, April 5, 2004
Time: 7:00pm-8:00pm
Drumming and chanting circles can be vehicles for healing and transformation of body, mind and spirit. Biofeedback research indicates that drumming alters brainwave patterns into alpha (meditative) brainwaves and brings you to a state of relaxation and restoration. Drumming allows you to reconnect with yourself, others and the sacred. Experience the healing power of group synergy while connecting to your own internal rhytm and sacred life force.
Join us for a gathering of drum and chant at:
