The drum ritual is a meditative sound journey, where the beat of the circular drum and the freely flowing human voice, supported by the sauna, silence and surrounding nature, invite the bather to relax and descend to their own self in the present moment.
Tensions and emotions hidden in the body melt away and the everyday mind rests during the drum ritual in the warm and safe embrace of the Sauna Temple. The rhythmic sound of the drum gently makes room for movement and for emotions to flow. Sound vibrations affect the fluids in our body, causing them to vibrate subtly and thus helping the body-mind to let go of what no longer serves.
During the ritual, we will greet the surrounding nature, the sauna's guardians, the elements and the directions, and set an intention: what do we ask for, what do we wish from our hearts for ourselves and each other? Together, we will create a safe space where everyone can be and breathe freely. You are also welcome to open your own voice, for example with sighs and long vowels, with sounds and sounds that want to surface from your inner self and be heard.
The drum ritual is led by Taina Kesäläinen, a DIY crafts artist, designer and nature connection instructor who is following her own path, who builds drums and leads drum building courses. Drumming and singing with the drum is an important method for Taina on her journey of self-exploration and the liberation of her own voice and self-expression. Tickets €25
