To want the healing drum to stop?

Woman next door is a spiritualist/fortune teller/card reader whatever. She often has clients in her house for readings and she’s well known. Anyway since lockdown she’s been out in her garden banging this bleeding healing drum throughout the day. Not all day but for an hour at a time morning and evening. It sets my dogs off and it’s annoying. I tried to show interest at first, peered over the fence and told her I’d heard her music and asked if it was a spiritual thing and that’s how I know it’s a healing drum.

It’s driving me nuts now. I put a bit of guns n roses on earlier and went to hang the washing out only to hear her telling someone that there was loud music playing from another garden but the drum would hopefully play over it. I felt obliged to turn mine down then as she appeared to be going a live thing on her phone.

How I do approach this without upsetting her or should I just leave her B?

It'd magically vanish overnight if I lived next to her.

Seriously inconsistent of her.

Oh no I couldn’t do anything like steal it. She got a Buddha thing stolen from her garden a few days ago and she was heartbroken but then decided it was the spirits that have taken it and they’ll return it when she stops looking for it. She’s lovely, just a bit “out there”

Douse it in petrol and set it alight. She shouldn't be upset, because if she's any good at her job, she'll have foreseen that you were going to do that anyway.

Then you need to speak to her and ask if she can keep the noise down.

Vanishing it is probably the easier option 😂

Let the dogs into your garden every time she lays it. If she says anything, tell her the dogs communicated with you, there need to be at one with the drum beats.
