At his farm in Marengo, Ohio, USA, Dean Fagan serenades a young donkey called Ivy with a customised version of 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow'.
The Fagan family runs a donkey sanctuary called 'Jackass Junction' that spreads out acoss 67 acres. Here, they care for rescued farm animals and Dawn Fagan posts regular updates about their donkeys on social media.
After a short period of time, I was approached by various musicians, who asked if their music might be suitable for the playlist. This came as a shock, because I was focusing more on frequency sounds and 'binaural beats'. When I questioned a musician as to how he knew about my drumming playlist, he told me that it was proving popular. I checked and, sure enough, around 1,000 listeners were now following the playlist.
The playlist has continued to grow in popularity and, as of today (June 6th, 2022), it has over 8,550 followers and continues to grow. As such, some of the finest musicians across the world have been in contact and I've been honoured to add their music into the playlist. I'll be contacting some of them across time for reviews and interviews about their latest creative projects on a separate music page.
Here's a link to the Tribal Drumming playlist.

Currently, widespread anxiousness concerning disease, war, violence, ecology, poverty and ignorance continue to grow. Despite this being a time in Earth's history when factual information is almost globally available to everyone, regardless of personal religion, class or creed, we appear to exist in an almost constant state of agitation, uncertainty and potential confrontation - often due to the spread of intentional misinformation.
Back around a decade ago, I decided to create a Facebook group. It was called 'Spiritus'. Amongst the daily torrent of negativity on social media - often from media outlets who thrive on such things - it focused entirely on delivering content which was uplifting, positive and encouraging. Stories of people who went against the 'grain' and didn't settle for following the crowd were rare. To me, it seemed that there needed to be more focus upon individuals/groups who chose to express themselves within creative, positive, empathic and constructive ways to help their fellow humanity and the inhabitants of the world around them.
Over time, I had to change the title of the group as the name was being misconstrued by religious individuals as being focused on Evangelical Christianity. As someone who regards religion as somewhat of a mystery, this was not acceptable, nor were the torrent of posts being placed there ordering people how to think and what would happen to them if they did not follow the same religious pathways/choices as the posters themselves.
And so, the group changed. I no longer allowed people to post things there, without my consent and removed anyone who stubbornly chose to argue. To avoid confusion, I altered the name of the FB group to 'Spiritual Upiliftment & Inspiration'. It continues to grow to this day and has been of comfort to many over the years of lockdown, due to Covid19.
This internet space - 'Spiritus Post' - is a direct expansion of the Facebook group, which can be located on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1374525716103319
Hopefully, the two internet sources will work together - one promoting the other. However, I'm planning to put more content on this website and be able to go into more detail.
While there will be regular posts about uplifting stories around the globe, I will also be taking a deeper look at the creative arts, especially involving writing and music. I've added specific pages on this website where I'll be writing reviews of books and music which focus on all topics reflecting uplifting, calming, empowering and inspiring natures. There will also be regular content involving other topics close to my heart, including spirituality, philosophy, meditation, spiritual healing and various forms of holistic therapy.
As with the FB group, this is not a place for exclusively religious posts. I have no personal gripe with any religion, but I believe it to be a solely personal choice and not something to insist/force onto others, regardless of personal intentions. If an Earthly religion touches your heart and allows you a greater quality of human expression then I am truly happy for you. If it makes you a better human being then I am genuinely overjoyed and I wish you nothing but happiness in life. If the goal is to convince others that they are doomed to eternal misery in the damning fires of wherever then this is definitely not the place for you. I'm sure you'll have no difficulty in finding plenty of places on the worldwide web that cater for your specific, personal tastes.
Thus, this space exists for anyone interested in personal growth, discovery and expansion of the mind/soul. Hopefully, it will serve to communicate posts which encourage free thinking on this material plane and allow us to think on higher, more productive levels.
The lessons and challenges of this Earth are many and common. May this website be a place of refuge, inspiration and hope to those who seek to grow and expand their consciousness via positive sources and input.
