What is the Helmtone Drum Protocol?

Helmtone Drum Protocols is a unique form of drumming meditation that enhances quality of life by releasing stress and trauma.
"Rhythmically create the world we want"

The Helmtone Healing Drum Protocols is a rhythmic reprogramming system that may possibly change a person?s belief system; alleviating fear, anxiety, trauma, dependency, depression, obsessive/compulsive behavior, grief and other conditions. This rhythmic energetic system may also enhance the quality of life for people with cancer, lupis, hepatitis, stomach ulcers, high blood pressure, ADD, depression, inappropriate anger, low self esteem and other conditions.

This is a user-friendly process that even non-drummers can learn to do for themselves. The drum is needed but not essential. The rhythmic programming is a unique blend of many different modalities including Neuro linguistic programming, EMDR, affirmations, psychotherapy, zen, rhythm n blues, shamanic drumming, transactional analysis, basic computer programming logic, visualization meditation and other modalities.

What is the "Breath of Life"?

The Breath of Life goes by many names... "Transformational Breathwork", "Rebirthing-Breathwork" and "Conscious Breathing" to name a few. These are a branch of alternative medicine which postulates that specialized rhythmic breathing techniques may have therapeutic benefits.

In these Breathwork practices, the client makes a connected breath without a pause between inhale and exhale or between the exhale and inhale. According to practitioners, this causes a build up of prana or life energy. A state of deep peace and relaxation is achieved fairly easily by most. Breathing sessions are done lying down and usually last one to two hours.

The theories and assumptions behind altered-state breathwork include:

• Humans never forget their birth - they just suppress the memory. Proponents posit that humans often access memories from prior lives as well as from the Collective consciousness through this process.
  
• In addition to cerebral memory (based in the brain), humans also possess 'cellular memory', which is distributed amongst the body's cells, tissues, organs etc.
  
• It is possible to gain recall of aspects of birth (also gestation and early childhood) and to release the accompanying emotions; such release usually becomes a decisive, influential and positive 'paradigm shift', often referred to as a 'breakthrough'.
  
• Human breathing is almost universally inadequate; virtually all people are suppressing large amounts of emotional, physical and mental "tensions" and require relatively high levels of CO2 in their blood to keep these tensions suppressed.
  
• The major causes of all human illness are these accumulated tensions; release of such tensions can cause physiological transformation to the point where permanent spontaneous remission from such illness becomes possible or highly probable.
  
• Rebirthing provides a direct, replicatable, physical experience of Divine Love through the saturation of the body with prana
  
• Conscious breathing releases physical toxins that are stored at a cellular level.

Breathwork advocates claim that those practicing have experienced:

• Deep and lasting inner peace
  
• Heightened mental clarity. Greater insight into the human condition
  
• Significant improvements in relationships - intimate, family, social and professional
  
• Greater ability to manage the challenges of career and life in general
  
• Elimination of negative patterns which had been limiting one's success in life
  
• Significant and lasting benefits to health and general well-being
  
• A sense of deeper insight into the purpose of one's existence; a greater sense of one's personal relevance to the world
  
• Permanent physical healing
  
• Direct connection with God-energy or Divine Love
  
• Memories of past lives
  
• Can lead to physical immortality. Many rebirthers are immortalists.
