I'm such a librarian. :)

Creating resiliency is an inside job. Its your mindset, your perspective that makes the difference. Some people are born with a positive attitude; for others its more of an effort.

Question: Can Raven Drum help with addiction?
Yes. The circles support everyone. Playing together makes you feel supported, you begin to identify with each other, no matter what your problem or situation is.

Sense of belonging and acceptance – drum circles
Drumming with intent

You can create your own drum circles, create your own rhythms. Families can do this as well as organizations, groups, etc.

Community feeling, bringing old and young people together.

Know and understand your path, what you’re meant to do in life, connect with your purpose, ask for guidance if you don’t know yet what your purpose is.

Question: Any advice for young musicians?
Play from your heart, listen to the greats, those that have inspired others, make the music your own

We’re all unique. Embrace your uniqueness.
