So, what is a shamanic practitioner?
A shamanic practitioner
is a healer who works with a client's energy, draws on
traditions going back tens of thousands of years, and enters
into an altered state of consciousness ("goes on a journey")
to diagnose and deal with the spiritual aspect of an
illness, which can show up in physical, mental, or emotional
form.
Shamanic healing:
-
Is healing of the soul
-
Fits any spiritual tradition and works well in tandem with western medicine, clinical counseling, and other
conventional and alternative healing arts
-
Is effective with a
wide variety of people regardless of healing need
In my view, this form of healing works particularly well with creative, intuitive people who have deep psychological insight and a strong
spiritual hunger and thirst.
So if you fit this description
-- and if
you’re reading this, you probably do - if you're looking for
a deep healing experience; if you’re eager to break through
barriers you thought you could never overcome, with
respect to family, career, relationships, physical
well-being, and spiritual health, you’ve come to the right
place!
New Energy and a Passport Home
When you go to a psychotherapist, you
gain valuable insights that can free you and give you a new
perspective on life. When you go to a shamanic practitioner,
you not only gain insight; you also gain actual energy that
you can utilize to change your life. What’s more, you gain
entrance into another reality, the nonlinear, infinite,
nurturing world of spirit.
Some people feel comfortable living
solely or largely in ordinary reality. They have a career
that satisfies, a home and possessions that please them.
But some of us are downright homesick for a world that we
can’t prove, but somehow know, is there. A world where
everything isn’t logical and linear. A world where death is
not the end. A world in which we are all “luminous beings on
a journey to the stars.” (from Shaman, Healer, Sage by
Alberto Villoldo), A world in which we have had many lives
and will go on to have many more. A world in which the soul
and not the ego is primary A world where everything is
alive, and each of us is truly connected to all creatures
past and present and to one another. A world of spirit
guides, spirit helpers, ascended masters and a
God/Universe/Higher Power who loves and supports rather than
punishes us for being who we truly are. We know that there’s
more to life than the ordinary reality in which we live and
walk around, but we can’t get there from here. Shamanic
healing is partly about getting there. Call it a passport
Home.
You don’t have to “believe” in the
world of spirit for shamanic healing to be effective; nor is
shamanism a religion. But for those of us who are homesick,
entering this world of spirit, or non-ordinary reality, is
perhaps the most powerful aspect of the whole healing
process. Part of my own life’s journey has been to find my
way back to this world. Now it is my honor and privilege to
help you find your way back, too, as well as to:
I will be delighted to answer any of
your questions and honored for the chance to work with you.
