a daily dose of bliss

You know how I always come home from Kripalu in a state of pure bliss. I am fortunate to live my life on the edge of bliss, and it only takes a gentle nudge to send it pouring through me. A few days of the simple, meditative life at Kripalu usually guarantee me at least a week of overflowing bliss.

I've been home two weeks now. I am still in that delicious, purring state of being, and I think drumming has something to do with the way I feel.

Rhythm engages the whole body. It's not just the hands moving on the drum. It's not just the ears hearing the beat. The whole body resonates. The breath synchronizes itself to the beat. The drum and the drummer become one.
