PHOTOSCHMOOZER: Wendy Wails!!

BE STILL...and SEE Photography

Reflecting on who I am...what is important to me...and the gifts I offer the world, I have reorganized this PhotoSchmoozer blog into separate pages for your viewing. I am about so much...people - relationships - drums and rhythms and especially photography...and I realize that although separate, they are all so INTEGRATED into the Whole of who I am!! It's a very peaceful thought and I am thankful for the intuitive gift to see the connections and the relationships. Enjoy the journey through the blog...and WELCOME.
Contemplative photography is about being totally present and seeing exactly what is before you, without filters or judgment. It is about seeing with your heart.Doesn't everyone see what is before them? Not really. You may see a candle on a table. Do you also see the shadows it creates? Or the reflections that the light casts on it? Or it's underlying shape and form?

Wendy Wails!!

Photoschmoozer - me - loves to talk to anyone - pay attention to the synchronicities of life - and make new friends! Meet Wendy Betz - here she is dressed to perform at the Bus Stop Music Cafe in Pitman with her band - Wendy Betz and the Riseing. Yes, like you, I questioned the spelling of the word - why the 'e'?? She made me notice that it got my attention as it does many others. People remember them in a different way. We casually met before this event as we listened to music on open mic nights, gradually got to talk more and now have become members in our ever evolving "Pitman family". It's focued around music, the Uptown Pitman Farm Market and now acupuncture, nutrition and alternative healing. Just one more lesson of paying attention to the synchronicities and living life! One never knows what lessons and adventure are just around the bend!!!

And folks - we can't forget Brother Doug@!@ J

ust a totally wonderful and supportive bro!!

What fun to make Homemade Drums!

In September, 2010, I attended the Remo drum company's HealthRHYTHMS training. It was a fantastic 2 1/2 day event - learning about hand drumming and drum circles and the variety of ways that these activities are beneficial to people. Dr. Barry Bittman shared some of the exciting research that he has done that provides evidence of the benefits to participants - team building, stress reduction, FUN, spirit, communication and... Christine Stevens was our co-facilitator - an open free spirit who guided us in drum circle facilitation and then Alyssa Janney shared all of the ins and outs of the business/marketing piece for Certified HealthRHYHTMS facilitators. That I am after the training and fun...and meaningful it is. Call me to talk about scheduling a training event or a series for your friends, co-workers or community: 856-256-8380.
At the training, I talked with Roy and he shared how he had made drums (so had Julie...and a few others) They sent us info about sonotubes and how to make drums. The rest has been persistent exploration from my curious husband (with my helping hands) and then my sense of fun in decorating them!! People are beginning to ask to buy them. Why not?!?
