Buffalo Drum

Soon to be a part of my sound healing toolkit, the buffalo drum brings a deep, primal resonance that connects us to the heartbeat of the Earth. Its low, steady vibration is grounding, powerful, and deeply therapeutic—ideal for helping clients reconnect with their root chakra and sense of embodiment. The repetitive rhythm of the drum naturally entrains the brain to theta waves, which are associated with deep meditation, intuition, and healing. In many indigenous traditions, the drum is used as a portal for journeying and visioning, and I plan to incorporate it in similar ways—especially for grounding sessions, clearing rituals, or shamanic-inspired healing journeys. While I currently use other instruments for this purpose, the buffalo drum will soon bring an added depth and ancient wisdom to my offerings.
