“Shamanic practices are notonly for Shamans to perform… Shamanic practices are at the core of what makes us human. They started with the birth of humanity. We still feel that same attraction, because that shaman is still within every one of us, just waiting for a chance to come back to life. ” ~Victor Sanchez, The Toltec Oracle
Long ago, all of our ancestors were people who lived in harmony with the Earth. They practiced Animism and knew how to heal themselves with Traditional Medicine.
We are Reclaiming our Animist Roots by making drums and rattles and learning the medicine of how to use them for healing.
Gain confidence in singing and drumming and connect to your ancestral practices.

Crafting your own ceremonial tools affects the resonance they hold. Your Sacred Tools will be infused with your intention and essence.
They are made perfectly for you, because they are made by you.
By breathing life into your drum and rattle, you forge a sacred connection that perfectly aligns with your spiritual journey.
This forms a relationship with your tools as an extension of your being. These instruments work in harmony with your soul’s vibration.
Forge a relationship with your drum and rattle. Unlocking your unique potential for healing, growth, and self-awareness.
Not only will we build our drums! We will also craft our ceremonial rattles. This experience is a profound and sacred opportunity for connection.
We will guide you through every step of the process. Don’t worry, there’s no such thing as messing up. We will help you move forward in the creation process with ease and confidence.
The gentle shaking of your rattle will clear stagnant energies and get you to a deeper heart-centered space. With each shake, you foster a profound connection of alignment with your most authentic self and the energies that surround you.
This rattle will be your loyal ally, accompanying you on your spiritual journey, providing protection, and enhancing your connection to the sacred energies flowing through all creation.
๐ต Craft Your Shamanic Drum ๐ต
Each step in the Sacred Tools journey will be guided as we weave our drums into being with ceremony and intention.
The ceremony of creation continues as we fashion a drum beater- the tool used to awaken and infuse life into your sacred instrument.
With this, witness the magic unfold as your drum comes alive. Entirely from your hands!
Creating your drum is an birthing experience of a profound bond between you and your healing tools for years to come.
๐ฟ Grounding and Altar Building ๐ฟ
We will begin our journey by creating an altar for our sacred space. We’ll practice meditation and regulation techniques to connect us deeply with the Earth’s energy. We will anchor ourselves in the present moment and prepare our spirits for the profound work ahead.
โ Cacao Healing Circle: Nourish Your Soul โ
Each day we’ll sit in a heart-opening cacao healing circle; this powerful plant ally will help us align with our authentic selves and set powerful intentions. As the sacred brew takes hold we will sit in prayer and intention with each other.

The Sacred Tool Creations Ceremony was just an incredible experience and I am so thankful for Four Wind Wisdom. ~EMERY D. Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
I highly recommend the Sacred Tools creation workshop. It was a really nice blend of learning, creating, and sharing space together. Life is a challenge for literally everyone and in our society and culture, it’s easy to feel wound up and overwhelmed. We put so much into caring for others. We have to somehow make space for ourselves. Figuring out a practical way to put some healing and grounding ritual into our lives is pretty important. Making my own drum and rattle was fun because I love to learn new ways to make things, and they’re my special things now forever. Adding some literal vibration to my day, even just a few minutes, pushes pause on the busy-ness, and reminds me to slow down and reconnect to the earth, to nature, to myself. At the workshop you sing a few songs together (if you want) which is pretty magical. Don’t be intimidated – there’s room for everyone, even if you’re a complete introvert and it seems scary. You’ll be glad you went. ~MAYA C. Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
