Our rattles are lovingly made from the same hides we use for our drums. Rattles are excellent for breaking up stuck energy, for creating sacred space, and for using rhythmically to journey or meditate. Most of the sticks we use for our rattles are willow (from the same trees from which we cut our beater sticks), though we really love finding interesting downed or drift wood for a very individual rattle.
