6 Ways To Use Your Tongue Drum

[@jacquelinemartinez3903]

went to a charity event for a church and they had a lot of boxes full of random things. Opened a rather large box to find this beautiful instrument that I have always had an eye for. Felt like it would be wrong to just leave it there so I brought it home with me. Really excited to start learning to play it.

I found a tongue drum today after never having seen one in my life. I felt so drawn to it I had to go back to the store after leaving to get it. I have no regrets. I know this was meant to come into my life.

[@rootrhythm]

Awe so great to hear! Thanks for sharing and hope you are enjoying playing yours!

[@spijkerpoes]

I found playing a tongue drum massively reduces screen time

[@rootrhythm]

Ahhh yes! I love to hear that!

[@madame33licious]

I actually bought a kosmosky after watching some of your videos. It was the BEST purchase ive ever made. It is absolutely a magical instrument!!

[@hartvenessa]

Love the lounge plant in the back!

[@larissashambhala]

I’d love you get into more details about those ways! ❤

[@claudiasanders8372]

I took the course and recommend it for those who want to learn some basics. It makes playing the tongue drum a lot more fun and interesting.

Last night, I played the tongue drum during an Ayahuasca ceremony in Manila Phillipines. This drum right here, was the key trigger for our participants to get connected with our Pachamama in a "not from this world way"... I saw beautiful downloads from our mother earth. Definitely, this drum has a great spirit and power. Almost dropped my phone when you mentioned, it helps to connect with nature. Ps: I never played or knew what a tongue drum was, until last night. EGOLEES COMMENT : And what I PLAYED? WAS FKN AWESOME!!! Just had to share this...! ❤️🌎

[@rootrhythm]

Hi Johnatan, wow thank you for sharing this! That is so amazing to hear. It is so wonderful how the tongue drum can alter our states of being and help the energy flow and connect us to the elements and world around us. So beautiful! Do you know what scale the tongue drum you were playing was in?

[@silbro123]

Thank you so much! I just have bought one and I need some lessons like yours...A big hug from Patagonia, Argentina! Besos!🇦🇷😃😘👋🎵🎶

Wonderful examples of creative uses for the tongue drum! I’ll be trying all of them! Thanks!

[@MarvinoBird]

My tongue drum is in the key of C. I can play at least a dozen actual tunes... like Across the Universe, A lover's concerto, happy birthday, the sound of silence, hey Jude, lullaby by Beethoven, cielito lindo, several Christmas tunes, over the rainbow... why don't you try it?

[@philiachan5522]

Hi, I have a tongue drum that does not come with 4 and 7 notes. May I know where can I finds songs that I can play without note 4 and 7 please?😊

[@CraigsOverijse]

Hi Alex do you have any links to where one can discover the notes for the chakras?

[@rootrhythm]

I just posted a video that goes into more detail about this. You can view it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3utZYWBfJ6WkMk

[@krzysztofbilski3699]

The obvious use it would seem as it's a musical instrument, is to use it for creating new songs or making covers, of already created songs 😌

[@riricooper3428]

Thank you

[@Slowrollingtheisland]

Can you elaborate on how to determine which note aligns with which energy center?

[@madame33licious]

If you google chakras and musical notes usually they have a few diagrams of which note correlates with each one. They also have chakra videos on youtube here they tell you which note affects which chakra.

[@rootrhythm]

Hi Nick! There are several different musical correlations, but the one I use and resonate with is to start with C for the Root chakra and then go up the scale from there. So C=Root, D=Sacral, E=Solar Plexus, F=Heart, G=Throat, A=Third Eye, B=Crown. I'll try to put together a separate video that explains this more in detail. Thanks for asking this question!

[@rootrhythm]

I have several video lessons showing how to play on a 9in (8 note) tongue drum. Here is the link to one that shows different stroke techniques: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJ-6e4yOn5yajq8

[@ccturner8224]

Absolutely fabulous! I just ordered two tongue drums from Kosmisky because of your recommendation in a different video. (I told them that your video is why I ordered). I, too, do sound healing and am SLOWLY gathering more instruments as I can afford. Thank you for your inspiring videos.

What the diference of hand pan?

[@rootrhythm]

They are typically larger and usually played with hands/fingers instead of mallets.

[@clintluna6884]

Is this a 12” or 10”? Thanks!!

This one is actually a 9" : )

Chick is playing the tongue drum like she is in a heavy metal band. Slow it down. Why you going so fast. No healing going on with your caffinated beats.

[@mrspeeddemon727]

In all of your B roll shots it looks like beating random nails with a hammer. Just pounding away.
