Drumming and Journey Workshop with Nataraj Wednesday
October 29th 6:30 - 8:15 pm $35.00 per person – call Utopia to
pre-register Please bring a drum or
rattle Since humans
first banged two rocks together, humankind has been using the drum in ceremony
and ritual as a means by which to gather in community. Historically, evidence of
drumming has been found in every culture in existence. It is a powerful healing
tool and a bridge to Spirit. In Shamanic work, drumming and journeying are
intrinsic and fundamental art forms employed by the Ceann-iuil or Shamanic
Practitioner to create union with the subconscious in order to receive guidance
and wisdom. This workshop will teach the basic understanding of working with a
drum in a Shamanic way and its connection to the process of journeying.
Additionally, each drummer will journey to their own personal Spirit Animal
which will act as a guide for subsequent journeys and create a spirit connection
to primal and innate wisdom. This is an opportunity for people to gather in
community and share their journey experience and insights in a safe, supported
and sacred way. Nataraj is an Initiated Ceann-iuil Pathfinder in the
Wolven Path Tradition currently undertaking the Traditional Eldership journey.
He works as a Peer Support Worker with the mentally ill and substance dependent
in group settings as a mentor and guide sharing his lived experience with these
challenges. He is a meditation and Ascension teacher and has completed his
studies as an Addictions Careworker through McMaster University. Nataraj
achieved a BSc in Forensic Science in 2006. He is also an Aoghair, a licensed
minister, in the SCGMSS (Sacred Circle of the Great Mystery Shamanic Society)
and a Director on the SCGMSS Board. Nataraj aspires to bring ancient healing
modalities such as Shamanic Practice and meditation, self-responsibility and
self-care into clinical and private settings, in order to support the conscious
release of clients’ old patterns and programs and to provide a compassionate
setting for healing and integration.
