Drums have been part of people's lives for thousands of years: from traditional drums, to tambourines, to the more recent tongue drums.
Tongue drums are descended from hand drums, are smaller, fit well in the hand and are easy to play. Although it may not seem like it, playing the drum has many benefits.
Do you want to know more about the benefits of Tongue drums? Here they are.
Tongue drum relieves stress
Science has shown that playing the drums relieves stress by releasing endorphins after playing a piece.
The source of this feeling of well-being is not only in the music itself, but also in the physical activity associated with playing the drums.
Tongue percussion is a method of treatment for mental disorders
Over the years, numerous research results have shown that percussion is an excellent tool for treating mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety and PTSD symptoms.
Meditation and mindfulness training represent an important part of the drumming story, but that's not all.
Tongue drumming improves brainwave synchronisation, which has a positive effect on creativity, problem solving and the immune system.
Combine meditation and tongue drumming for double the benefits
Firstly, the many therapeutic effects of the drum make it a powerful medicine for children's behavioural problems, autism, trisomy 21, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, post-traumatic stress syndrome and many other conditions.
Secondly, scientific studies have shown that percussion instruments reduce stress, regulate blood pressure and lower cortisol levels.
In addition, other expert research shows that drumming with the tongue relieves chronic pain and boosts the immune system.
Given the benefits of meditation and drumming, why not combine the two? When meditating with the Tongue Drum, one concentrates not only on the piece being played, but also on the rhythm of the drum.
With its gentle and relaxing rhythm, the Tongue Drum offers a great opportunity to enhance meditation sessions.
