This bright and loud sounding rattle can be used in many different ways. You can use it as a percussion instrument, in early musical education or in therapeutic healing work, and it is easy to play, handy and good for travelling. Its sound spectrum is also wide. When shaken gently, the rattle has a meditative and calming effect, while fast rattling awakens energy and leads to attentive concentration, while strong and punctual rattling is said to dissolve negative powers. If you play the shaman rattle with a steady rhythm and give yourself completely to the game, you can even fall into a trance-like state.
