Mind-Fold Mask
Don’t laugh - it works! And wow, this thing is cool! The strap is elastic and joins at the sides with Velcro, so it’s comfortable and totally adjustable. The inside of the Mind-Fold Mask is foam rubber with cut-out areas over the eyes - total darkness, but no pressure on the eyes themselves (great if you’re wearing contact lenses. Or mascara). The front panel is opaque black plastic — there is NO light coming in! Good for shamanic journeying in too-bright rooms or for folks who must sleep during the daylight hours.
Comes in a zip-lock storage pouch with a set of foam ear-plugs, for even more complete sensory deprivation.

Remo Buffalo Drum 16”
Almost a decade ago I switched to using a Remo Buffalo Drum, after my beautiful elk-hide drum succumbed to humidity once too often. The Remo Fiberskyn head will never alter its tone, in sweat lodge or desert. No problems! Plus it’s light-weight, so it travels well and you can drum for extended times without shoulder agony (traditional hide and wood drums tend to be heavy). Entirely earth-friendly: No animals or trees were sacrificed to create this. Note: All parts of the drum — head, rim, black inner rim — are ripe for your personalized decorations.

Drum Bag 16” x 3.5”
A simple sturdy nylon bag that fits the 16” Remo Buffalo or other 16” frame drum. It doesn’t offer heaps of padding, but is water- and scratch-resistant, and good for keeping all your small gear together with your drum. Zip closure, two webbing handles. That slim pocket on the outside can hold a bodhran tipper, or your cryptically scrawled directions to tonight’s drum frenzy. Pack your rattles, sage, altar cloth, belly-dancing jingle scarf, et. al. inside the back of your drum, then just slide the drum into case and head for the drum circle!

Gourd Owl Rattle
This small gourd rattle — about the size of a tangerine or a clementine — is carved to look like an owl, complete with a tiny projecting beak. All are similar, but each is unique, and the rattle sound is pleasant and bright, slightly muted by your hand holding the gourd. Created by Peruvian artisans and imported as Fair Trade items, which means the artisans are fairly compensated for their work.
Decorated Gourd Rattle
These gourd rattles — from about the size of a clementine up to an apple, plus the “tail” handle — come carved with a variety of designs, motifs that are significant to the artisans. All are similar, but each is unique, and the rattle sound is pleasant, bright, and generally louder than that of the owl-rattle shown above. Created by Peruvian artisans and imported as Fair Trade items, which means the artisans are fairly compensated for their work. Sorry, no choice on designs, but please mention your preference, large or small.
