You are called to follow your heart. First, you come to a river where you cross, submerging yourself fully. As you are in the wild waters you see a young deer trying to climb the bank, though she keeps slipping and falling into the water. Calmly you approach her offering to help her up the bank. She excepts.

Gathering your strength, you gently push her from behind, helping her to the top. She turns and thanks you. As you climb the bank, where the deer stood you find a rawhide. You know to take it. So you do, with blessings and gratitudewith your Ritual Drum. And so you do, with blessings and gratitude.

You continue your journey. Across your path lays a fallen tree with an enormous trunk and the only way forward is to climb it, so you do. As you arrive on the other side, there is a beautiful hand-crafted hoop made from the fallen tree. You know to take it, and so you do with blessings and gratitude.

As you continue on your path, a mother Wolf is standing in front of you with a cub by her side. Your heart is racing not knowing what to do. You breathe slowly, opening your heart and the wolf connects, feeling the stillness from your slow, full breath. Mind to mind, the wolf shows you that her cub has got a very sharp twig pierced into his foot and can’t walk. With a knowing you have to remove the sharp twig, you do. The cub and mother Wolf are grateful.

You look down at the twig and you see that it is growing into a small branch. You know you are to keep this. So you do.

Up ahead you smell the sweet scent of sacred incense. There is a natural circular clearing in the trees. A Medicine Woman is standing next to a fire playing her drum. She calls you forward and you place your sacred items on the ground. You both look at each other eye to eye, heart to heart, and you know it's time to birth your Ritual Drum. And so you do.

This style of drum is more known in Siberia and Native America.

In traditional times, it was known for a shaman or medicine woman or man to receive their drum was a many days insinuation. They say that the wood would have come from a lightning-struck tree because of the power this tree holds.

The animal skin will be there power animal when working in the healing realms.

The shamans use their drums to create an altered state of consciousness to evoke the spirit world

and the ancient healers to walk side by side with them for healing and gathering wisdom from the natural world.

These drums are predominately played with a beater. They can be played with the hands as well,

though to tones are deeper due to the Shamanic drums having a ticker skin.

Shamanic drums are 14inch - 16inch. If the skins are really large I may be able to do a 17-inch.

Miriam the prophetess… took the timbrel in her hand, and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dancing. —Exodus 15:20

This drum is depicted in many ancient pictures from the middle east of goddesses and priestesses.

Jackie

Such a beautiful workshop, joining together with like-minded women honouring and following the ancestral journey of the sacred Timbral. Naomi is a devoted follower within this ancient art of drum making and embraces every aspect of the journey within herself, enabling her to share the process with others, drawing women back towards honouring that place of spirit within themselves. At no point throughout the process, from the first step of choosing the skin which was placed upon sacred land for us to connect to, to the birthing of the drum did I feel at a loss as what to do, Naomi's skilful guidance and support was given throughout with love and absolute presence. The ancestral lineage of land and drum-making process was honoured throughout our time together. Naomi continues the support with short videos on how to practice playing, which is an absolute bonus. Thank you for the opportunity to experience the wonderful journey with yourself and the other women

With gratitude Jackie.

Manuela King

I was the lucky participant of Naomi's Timbral drum workshop a few weeks back. The journey she took us on, from gathering as a women’s group to choosing our precious kangaroo skins and making this sacred women’s instrument whose lineage goes back thousands of years was out of this world. Connecting with the spirit of the kangaroo that had chosen me and once walked this earth in paddocks and bushland ……and for me to be called to once more breathe life and sound into its being has been a magical experience. Not only does it breathe again through the drum, more importantly, it now gives its breath for the healing of others. I feel deeply connected to him, an element that cannot be found in large-scale drum manufacturing. The group of women that had come together on that day was like a ‘homecoming’. Women gathering in sacred space, sharing stories, laughter and also some tears is so nourishing to our souls. It is deeply moving when a group of women gather to awaken the sacred feminine, held by a woman whos spiritual journey is exactly that and then grow closer during the few days through sharing their pain and joy in becoming the woman they are today. Thank you, Naomi… I feel very blessed to be walking this path with you. Thank you also to the women of this group and all the women on their sacred journey.

“Your heart is calling ~ calling to the beat and rhythm of Mother Earth ~ calling to the beat and

rhythm of Life ~ calling to your inner Love ~ Dear one, allow the Frame Drum to take you there”

Back in 2017, I had a calling from my heart and soul to make my frame drum. I found myself in the Perth Hills ready

to birth my first frame drum. While making my drum, it took me to a place where I felt at home, my body just knew

what to do. From this day, I knew that I was going to be helping others to find and birth their Sacred Drum.

As time went on, I still held it strong in my heart that one day I will find my teacher to learn the sacred art of frame

drum making. It all started to unfold in 2020 when I was making another drum at a woman’s retreat. I found out

that their teacher was Jane Elworthy. I wasn’t in the right place to think too much more about it, though Jane

remained in my mind. Then 2022 arrived and one evening I found myself calling Jane Elworthy to find out if she

was thinking of taking on any apprentices. When I asked her this she said “Funny you should ask, because yesterday

I was just thinking, maybe its time to take on an apprentice” And so it was, at the end of November 2022 my car was

packed and I was heading across the Nullarbor with Broken Hill being my destination to meet Jane and learn the

Sacred art of Frame Drum making. The frame drum is apart of my everyday life ~ be it in my morning meditation

and journeying ~ Shamanic healing sessions and animal communication or for energy clearing on the land and

around my home.

My horses have and continue to benefit from being drummed. Also other animals benefit from drumming.

The drum has the power to shift stuck energy through its healing frequencies, sound and rhythm.
