Introducing: The Drum Microdosing Circle
Welcome to a sanctuary where rhythm becomes medicine
Through gentle daily practice, sacred drumming, and supportive community, you’ll move from feeling scattered and disconnected to experiencing more presence and authentic connection with yourself
What is Drum Microdosing?
Unlike many other practices that require significant time commitment, drum microdosing is about taking small, consistent doses of rhythm medicine.
Just 5 minutes a day can create profound shifts in your wellbeing. This isn’t about becoming a drummer – it’s about using rhythm as a tool for transformation.
The purpose of the circle is two-fold:
- To create and facilitate a community of like-minded women supporting each other as they develop a transformative daily practice
- To teach the process I have developed combining drumming with intentional practice for mental wellbeing, based on scientific research and ancient wisdom
Supporting nurturing women to find peace creates a ripple effect of sustainable care that transforms families, communities, and generations.
What’s included in the circle?
- Weekly 75-minute live calls on Zoom
- Simple daily practices that take just 5 minutes
- Guidance on choosing and using your drum
- Access to recorded drumming tracks
- A private Facebook group for sharing experiences
- Video recordings of all sessions
Live calls take place on Wednesdays at 8pm GMT (London, UK time)
First call: Wednesday 12th of March
Final call: Wednesday 2nd of April
We will start to get to know each other in the private Facebook group from Wednesday the 5th of March.
You might feel at home in this community if:
- You’re curious about drumming but don’t consider yourself “musical”
- You’re seeking a practice that combines body, mind, and spirit
- You value evidence-based approaches combined with ancient wisdom
- You can commit to 5 minutes of daily practice
- You’re drawn to being part of a supportive community
- You’re ready to explore drumming as a tool for transformation
When we find our rhythm, we transform every moment we touch. By supporting one person to connect with their inner rhythm, we seed a revolution of embodied presence that can transform the world.
This community might not be for you if:
- You’re looking for advanced drumming instruction
- You prefer a purely technical approach to drumming
- You’re not willing to commit to daily practice
- You’re uncomfortable with combining science and sacred practice
- You’re hoping to learn without participating
- You’re sceptical about the mind-body connection
The journey from scattered to clarity requires openness, patience, and a willingness to do things differently. If you’re not quite ready for this kind of exploration, that’s perfectly okay – we all have our own timing and path.

A few words from women who took part in drumming work or mentoring with me:
This is a deeply affirming experience that connects you back to your innate wisdom using the ancient power of rhythm and sound of the drum. You don’t have to rely on conventional thinking, you are guided as if in a boat, by the drumming journey to naturally take you to where you need to go, to the knowledge that you are seeking. Sophie has a beautiful kind presence and ability to guide you safely and easily into the depths of your being. If you are looking for answers within yourself, with ease, then I highly recommend this session (one to one drum journey session)
Kanan Tekchandani, Neurodivergent coach
Sophie’s course is great, everything is explained in great detail & nothing is rushed or over loaded of information. It’s a beautiful way to connect with yourself and your drum for your future practises. I feel more confident in my drumming and confident going forward for drumming ceremonies or sessions alone, I suppose I really realised the power of the drum (feedback for drumming for birth course)
“A session with Sophie is totally worth its weight in gold; she is inspirational and full of ideas and thoughtful questions, and I came away motivated to make changes and find new approaches to help my own growth.”
Claire, massage therapist
About me, your community space holder:
For over a decade, I’ve walked alongside women during their most transformative life moments, weaving together science and sacred wisdom. My journey from research scientist to spiritual mentor has given me a unique lens to understand both the physiological and soul-deep needs for calm in our chaotic world.
My experience includes:
- Supporting hundreds of women through birth and early motherhood
- Guiding birth and holistic professionals to grow and trust themselves
- Facilitating healing rituals and ceremonies that honour women’s life transitions
- Creating safe spaces for holistic professionals to reconnect with their inner wisdom
- Teaching evidence-based techniques for nervous system regulation alongside ancient spiritual practices
- Supporting hundreds of women through ceremonial and therapeutic drumming
- Researching the effects of drumming on mental health
- Writing a book about women and drumming (forthcoming, 2025)
- Creating safe spaces for beginners to explore drumming
What sets my approach apart is the blend of:
- Scientific understanding of stress and the nervous system
- Deep reverence for traditional women’s wisdom
- Practical tools for modern life challenges
- Sacred ceremony and ritual work
- Community-centered healing
Through this work, I’ve witnessed time and again how women transform when given the right blend of practical support and sacred space to breathe, be, and become.

One of the most powerful aspects of drumming and the reason people have done it since the beginning of being human is that it changes people’s consciousness. Through rhythmic repetition of ritual sounds, the body, the brain and the nervous system are energised and transformed.
