Shamanic Healing Circles

Healing circles have been forming for thousands of years. History and stories are passed on in the circle often around a fire. In ancient
times Shaman journeyed on behalf of an individual or for the tribes’ well-being. Today, you can learn to use this old healing wisdom for your own health and happiness.

Shamanic journeying is a powerful psychotherapy modality. In my personal experience it was the journey that taught me how to heal. In my professional career I notice that in the journey we learned a new way of being. Not necessarily what caused the trauma but how to come away from the experience and find a way to be whole.

In my opinion, re experiencing a traumatic event is abusive. In 1994 I learned about Shamanism and the healing benefits of journeying and began teaching others to journey. In 1997 after my first Vision Quest I “quit my day job” and have been facilitating healing ever since.

Now when we are in tough times it is my honor and responsibility to share this with you as a gift. Our first session in this process is free. Please come and see if journeying is for you and part of your path of healing.

Practical Shamanism

Bring matter to Spirit and Spirit back into matter

In the Practical Shamanism course you will learn how to take important life concerns to Spirit and bring Spirit back into your life. Everyday life presents us with a multitude of issues to resolve. Conflicts which arise can be resolved by taking the problem to your Higher Self or Spirit Guide. This is the basis of Shamanism and what ancient Shaman did for their community.

Come experience the most powerful tool of a Shaman.

We are privileged in this modern time to have the ancient heritage of indigenous shamanic methods. These methods allow us to travel into alternate states of consciousness at will. We call on allies available in this realm. Tap into the wisdom hidden within. Using the shamanic drumbeat enter and journey through the rich worlds of non-ordinary reality.

SHAMANIC MEDITATION - Steps to Stillness

A happy person is in harmony with himself and his environment.

Ancient shamanic cultures lived close to nature. Life today is fast paced. Meditation is proven to regenerate our senses and fill us with potential. Modern Shamanic meditation is a bridge from frenzy to focus. Spiritual guidance and peace are the gifts of shamanic meditation. Connection with spirit brings a playful creative focus. Consciously set an intention and gain insights.

Our imagination is home to creative thought. Gently guided imagery leads you into a comfortable, safe place. In this sanctuary awareness provides a connection to your birthrite: a life of grace and ease.

In shamanic meditations we experience relief from trauma and carry that into our everyday life. The mind is more calm reducing stress and the body responds by lowering the blood pressure and allows for more restful sleep.

No longer responding in old ways we create happiness in spite of our hectic pace.
