You've found Drum Journey, the first app for shamanic journeying.
Shamanic journeying, as you probably already know, is a kind of insight meditation. It’s a spiritual practice that combines visualization with acoustic accompaniment, usually fast drumming or rattling.
Drum Journey works like a timer; dial in the journey duration, set your options, and tap Start. Included in the app are several professionally-produced drum and rattle tracks, and you can also import your own from iTunes.
Features:
- flexible journey duration, from 5 minutes to an hour
- choice of drumming styles (single, double, or with rattle)
- adjustable tempo (slow, normal, and fast)
- adjustable instrument volumes
- high quality drumming tracks
- works with AirPlay
- Optimized graphics for iPhone Retina screens
- light up the globe; share your location with other Drum Journey users
For centuries, shamans have used journeying to gain insight and clarity. I was inspired to create this app while participating in the three year program of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies.
Note: This app does not teach shamanic journey practices. Visit the Mindful Bear website for links to shamanic educators, books, and practitioners.
I like how you can choose the length, speed and whether it's drum and rattle or just drums. It works well for me.
Love this app

I love the combinations of drums and rattles you can choose and the duration choices are great as sometimes you only need a short time. The only thing I would like is an option for a bit of a lead in rather than straight into the main tempo.
Really useful
Boombana
Great to use when out and about without my tools, thank you! 😊
Drumming with recall

Drums, natural and synthetic which can be combined together, and also with a rattle. Vary the duration, and even the tempo on the Ceremonial option. Excellent app!
- Adds Bass & Treble controls (in the Drum Mix popup)
