chants, prayers … audio
At Yraceburu EarthWisdom, the main purpose of our Drum is to lead our community in chated prayer, but our mission goes beyond this. By bringing our voices together as one, we send love reverberating along Earth's magnetic grid, comforting, sharing joy, spread hope, and growing life for All Our Relations.
The Yraceburu Drum is a vital part of our EarthCeremony.
Learning the songs we use in Circle can be a challenge. There’s a lot to figure out in the beginning, and it may not be as easy as you had anticipated. You’ll first learn how to chant functionally – it may not sound pretty, but you’ll get there!
After getting the hang of letting go of your fears and just belting it out – maybe you’ve learned a few drum patterns – you can start to practice your chants! We suggest starting out with simple chants; after all, you won’t be Yolanda Martinez after just a month of singing along.
And while practice may not make perfect, it certainly does make progress. Pretty soon, you’ll be able to chant spontaneously when in ceremony. And what better motivation to practice than learning a chant that moves the energy?
