“Around the world and across many cultures, a person who deals with the spiritual aspect of illness is a shaman. A shaman diagnoses and treats illnesses, divines information, communicates and interacts with the spirit world, and occasionally acts as a psychopomp, that is, a person who helps souls cross over to the other world.”  – Sandra Ingerman, Soul Retrieval.

Shamanic Healing can include:

• Spirit Reading - retrieving information about your life, your path and possible futures
• Relationship Readings
• Mental/Emotional Re-Aligning
• Soul Retrieval
• Connecting with Spirit Helpers
• Guardian Spirit Retrieval
• Guidance for the Terminally Ill
• Guidance for Spiritual Emergence; Education and guidance with your own shamanic practice, light-work and spiritual growth

A shaman is a person who acts as a bridge between the invisible realms and the visible ones. The shaman acts as a mediator in your empowerment and spiritual growth process by helping you connect with your own internal knowing, and infinite spirit. A shaman also helps you connect to your spirit-guides, animal guardians, archetypal powers, angels and messengers from the elemental realms – Earth, Air, Water, and Fire.

In these sessions we put forward your questions about personal growth, life, love, health, family and work - past present and future. You are given the opportunity to experience yourself on a deeper level where your higher self can lead you to a place of clarity, insight, joy and the relaxation of being who you truly are.  

 

Together with your spirit guides we create sacred space in which to shift any disruptive patterns that have emerged in your psyche. We clear the ground for forgiveness and letting-go so that abundance and new action may enter into your life.

Any need for healing, growth and guidance for yourself, in your relationships or any other area of life can be addressed.

Relationship is an opportunity for us to discover the difference between true love and our projections, conditioned ideas and expectations of love. One of the major sources of discouragement in relationships is being unable to see, meet, or truly listen to and experience each other. We often find ourselves at a loss as to how to proceed with so much history weighing down a relationship.

 

In these sessions we wrap in compassion those unconscious patters and conditions that prevent you from truly seeing each other. Using direction from your spirit guides and from the collective consciousness of your relationship itself we facilitate dialog sourced in Spirit to form a bridge between your hearts. We move forward, allowing guidance from Spirit to fill the journey with joy and forgiveness.

 

The sessions may include exercises in conscious communication as well as other forms of healing work and guided meditations.

 

 

 

Another form of healing work facilitated by a shaman involves the gathering of information about the unconscious, automated thinking that creates your reality and guides your actions. These unconscious thoughts or belief systems evolve into clusters that manifest as blocks to clear thinking and to your innate feeling of liberation. Sometimes the patterns become so disruptive that they block the flow of life force in your energetic systems and manifest as diseases of all kinds - physical as well as mental.

The shaman helps you clear these patterns not only by untangling the knots energetically but also by conveying to you in words the conscious mind can understand what the problem is and what unconscious patters are manipulating your reality.

Each and every one of us comes together as a complex and unique individual body/soul geometry with veins of life force rushing through us. When this sacred shape is in its wholeness is when Spirit can most easily inhabit the body. One kind of healing provided by the shaman is called soul retrieval and it is part of the tapestry of spiritual healing facilitated by a shaman.

During a soul retrieval the shaman helps you reconnect to fragments of yourself that were left at sites of traumatic events, times of grief and desperation or left in the hands of those who intentionally or unintentionally sought power over you.

You can experience the places in your self where soul loss or energy blockage has occurred by noticing the areas in your life where you have come to accept depression or lack of energy as simply a part of your existence that you think you can do nothing about. You can see these places in chronic pain - both physical and emotional and in negative thinking patters, about yourself or about life.

You can also see these places in your relationships - where the same patters of behavior and of power imbalance occur. You can see them when there are people and places you try not to think about but your mind keeps returning to them. You can see them when thoughts and fears trapped in your body keep you from being fully connected, at peace with your past, and full of the joy of gratitude.

Our Guardian Spirits are, at times, higher intelligence beings and masters that are making themselves available in service to you at this time. At times, a Guardian Spirit will be a deceased relative, or friend. Always, they are benevolent helpers who are there to work and guide you in your process of evolution. The work of the shaman is to help you become aware of these presences in you life and give you the tool to work with them.

Your Power Animal, is a guardian spirit that enhances your life force and stamina, your power and your wisdom. Other Spirit Helpers include plant and mineral helpers. In the West we have not been taught to maintain the relationships with our animal and plant powers, archetypes or Spirit Helpers and gradually we have lost touch with them. In a 'Spirit Helper Retrieval' the shaman journeys for you into the collective mind (or what is known in shamanic circles as the 'lower world') and retrieves this power for you. The shaman then helps you connect with your Spirit Helper and maintain that relationship.

Our Power Animals and Helpers are important because they help connect to the innate power of nature within us. They help us with healing as well as thriving in daily life. Our Plant and Mineral guides also help us in this way and give us a power and life force to fall back on when we are in need.

It is of great help to the dying to remember their connection with the Spirit world and reconnect with Spirit Helpers and Spirit Guides. This kind of connection makes the transition into spirit form an easier one for family and friends as well. For the dying there can be no greater comfort than to have tasted what it is like to be connected to the Spirit world and to have completed any healing between themselves and those who have come across their path in life.

Many cultures talk about the time directly after the transition into Spirit where a soul reflects back on their life and witnesses their loved ones, their triumphs and failures. When a person has done this healing work while living they and their loved ones can proceed in gratitude rather then fear.

Sometimes we hold on to parts of ourselves that want to change and in doing so we meet with inner conflict leading to sadness and anxiety or to a sense of struggle in certain areas of our lives or our psyches. Sometimes we encounter an inner emptiness - a sense of meaninglessness where you see that all you’ve been told about who you are supposed to be is not true, and yet you are not sure how to recover your own innocent and vibrant true nature. 

All these states can indicate the fragmentation of the spirit ora message from Spirit that a time has come to embark on a journey. It is a shaman’s job to help you reunite with the fullness of yourself. The goal of healing and of spiritual awakening is to reintegrate and dwell peacefully at the center of all the parts of ourselves.

This work is not only the work of shamanic healing, it is also the work of spiritual awakening. It is the work of restoring a sense of unity and community between us, as individuals, and our families; between ourselves and the natural world as well as a sense of unity among nations and races across the globe. It is our work as individuals who desire peace and prosperity for all life. Beginning with ourselves – restoring our wholeness and cleansing the channels that connect us to the universal source of all life we can begin to heal all our relationships and bring into being a world where, with each breath, we are proud of who we are, what we’ve created and what we see in the world.
