Shamanism's Foundation Stones: The Basic Workshop in Shamanism
accelerated 1-day workshop, specialized curriculum for Science of Mind seekers

In this workshop you will learn the fundamentals of Core Shamanism, the process of the
Shamanic Journey.  Using your shamanic journey skills you will begin to make contact
with your allies and guides, your Lower World Power Animal and your Upper World
Teachers and Guides. 

About shamanism and this course in particular, my colleague, Valerie Nunnelly says,

The shaman believes that everything has a spirit, and that everything is
connected in the great web of life.
As Chief Seattle said, "We are but one thread in it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
All things are bound together, all things connect."

This highly interactive workshop is designed to give you an introduction to the
various methods of shamanic healing. Through the healing power of the drum
(your spirit horse), you will learn to journey to the shamanic realms.
Emphasis is placed on meeting an animal spirit guide or teacher who will
guide you to discover methods of healing and problem solving. Working with
a spiritual teacher is a collaborative effort, therefore you will learn to build
an alliance that is based on mutual trust and respect.
Ample time is given for problem solving and discussion of experiences.

This course stresses ethics and safety for all, and will give you the foundation you need
to begin exploring the shamanic otherworld cosmology where you can access healing,
answers to questions, and begin to develop a working relationship with the spirit allies
who have been with you since birth.


This is a very popular workshop, so register soon!

An Introduction to Curse and Oath Unraveling
a 1-day workshop

The energies of Curses and Oaths can affect our daily lives, and using curse energies
against others is a frequent occurrence in our culture; we do it without knowing that
we do.  Curses were regularly used in ancient times - and still are, to sometimes
devastating effect. This course explores the form and nature of simple curses and oaths
and gives methods and approaches for safely unraveling them. 

Cost: $125

Heart-Centered Compassionate Depossession I
a 2-day workshop

Possession or Obsession by other beings is a common malady relatively unknown to us
Westerners, yet which is dealt with routinely in other cultures around the world. 
Obsessing beings can overshadow a person, leading to altered behaviors, physical
discomfort and loss of quality of life.  Heart-Centered Compassionate Depossession
provides a beautiful and safe method of alleviating the suffering of all beings concerned. 
Despite our associations with the term, this is a very beautiful and helpful practice.
It is my favorite shamanic work. 


Cost: $250
