Drumming stimulates both hemispheres of the brain to create whole mind activation so you can be both creative and logical. Drumming is a powerful brain development activity that also supports emotional and psychological health. The rhythmic practice helps me develop a deeper sense of harmony and clarity of the mind. The drum is a simple instrument which can provide great healing benefits to the mind, body and spirit. Thank you for sharing this video that provides clear and interesting information.
Music Energetics all of what you are saying is true but keep in mind that drum playin is not a simple task if what you want is to be a percussionist, you habe to know the history and culture of each specific drum and that s a life long quest even wiht only one drum or familiy of drums that is a life journey, just saying this in order to give the drums the musical status it deserves
I absolutely agree with what you are saying.I went through some kind of brain trauma and I went on a drum workshop and I could literally feel the two hemispheres beginning to talk to each other again.I really need to get myself a small drum or a cahon or anything really with some resonance and that I can make a rhythm and beat with.
Thank u so much for this information... my brain got seriously messed up by being taken off of a benzo sleeping pill cold turkey after being on it 20 years... and it was a drug that a patient should only be on for 2 weeks. I have been listening to these RUclips videos on drumming tonight for about 2 hours and I can already tell a difference in my brain function. This is nothing short of miraculous for me... and how I appreciate your explanation. I'm going to be drumming and sharing this information with everyone I know.. how much our world needs this right now!
I'm sure the captives sacrificed by Aztecs to beating drums felt a lot of healing benefits! Drums are everywhere in Africa and it is the most diseased place on the planet.
@@APerson4889-g5f Lol. I was about to say, it has its benefits but it isn't a "remedy" that has the same results to each individual. Not every drummer I have met is a healthy, logical, creative, emotionally and physically stable person.
I use drumming for my PTSD and it has changed my entire world for the better. It helps that I already am a percussionist and play several other instruments as well, however I can see this benefiting anyone who may be seeking alternatives to prescription medications.
My book, *Feeling the Call: Therapeutic Uses of Traditional West-lAfrican Drumming*, expands upon the wonderful potential of drumming to heal emotional wounds. Thank you Cornell Coley for all that you shared!
🥁❤️🙏🎉 Amazing Cornell Coley! Thanks you very much for spreding this message and for your deep work with the communities! You are doing your part trying to save the world!
My brother... I live less than 2 miles from Morehouse College... I am part of the drumming community of Atlanta Georgia... Everyone knows that... And what I need to hip you to my brother, is that you are educating those that have septic attitudes towards us to the game and how to come in and be poison with a smile on their face
Such an awesome talk. I’ve picked up hand drumming in the past two years and am enjoying it. I’m working on a PhD in community psychology and am thinking about trying to open a space for drumming and music as community-building. This has come in very handy.
Just curious about myself! I don’t have a degree, just drumming and MMA and yet I work as a head administrator. Way faster thinker than my colleagues! 😂
Please please please someone tell me where I can find a Buffalo drum that sounds exactly like that. I'm begging anyone that has an honest, real lead as to where I can find one to let me know.
ok it was not Olotunji who started African drumming in the USA it was people like Chano Pozo, Mongo Santamaria, Patato Valdez, Candido and Francisco Aguabella!!!
It would have been more understandable if you explained your statement. What is a "Right" or "Wrong" audience? All cultures have drums because we all have a heart and that is where it starts. :-)
Excellent presentation Cornell! Thank you. I've been facilitating these kinds of evidence based group drumming and music making programs for over 20 years. I really appreciate how well you demonstrated, articulated, integrated, and offered so much about it and the benefits in a short timeframe. 😊🎵🪘

Oh the energy in that room while they were clapping is beautiful
great to know what good things Nigeria especially the Yoruba heritage is contributing to global wellness.
Black people contributed everything to humankind
Yes, thanks!
Asé and so it is...and so it always has been!

"Places in every communiy where there's skilled rhythm facilitation going on." Lovely!
I've had dreams about this.

your statement is septic

Can't wait!
The Buffalo Drum is one of the coolest things I've ever played! Love the Video!

Each time I try to drum I feel my brain it's like in motion and it takes maximum concentration and attention, it's really hard than studying.
😂
Awesone!!
Run silent Run Deep
Brilliant
1 BAND 1 SOUND
These guys love the sound of their own voice so much, that they take forever to explain stuff.
This guy's voice is like what Mike Tyson would sound like without the speech impediment.
like it!!!!
Just curious about myself! I don’t have a degree, just drumming and MMA and yet I work as a head administrator. Way faster thinker than my colleagues! 😂
The way that one guy laughed at me. Rogers. Rofl
Mr.**
EveryDaySlacker lmfao I couldn't stop laufging
Please please please someone tell me where I can find a Buffalo drum that sounds exactly like that. I'm begging anyone that has an honest, real lead as to where I can find one to let me know.
Remo Drums sells them. I'm sure online.
Amazon has them. Search “Remo Buffalo Drums.”

Sir, you are speaking to the wrong audience.
It would have been more understandable if you explained your statement. What is a "Right" or "Wrong" audience? All cultures have drums because we all have a heart and that is where it starts. :-)
