Learn Shamanic Journeying
For a full listing of classes click here
or visit our Introduction to Shamanism Page

   Shamanic journeying is the process of moving into an altered state of consciousness, 'non-ordinary reality', to deepen our connection to Spirit, receive divine guidance, access information, experience healings on many levels, as well as facilitate healing experiences for others.  By bringing the teachings of Shamanism into our daily lives, we can more fully experience our own divinity, our innate understanding of the Oneness of all life, and 'mirror' these Spiritual Truths to the World.

  You will learn the basic skills of Shamanic Journeying.  By utilizing the beat of a drum, you will learn how to move into an altered state of consciousness to gain access to the upper, middle, and lower worlds of non-ordinary reality,  extraordinary energy realms filled with teachers, guides, knowledge and healing.  We will be covering the basics of how to create a sacred space to journey from within and how to work with your power animal.

   Please wear comfortable clothing, bring a blanket, a drum and/or rattle if you have one.  There will be some available to use for the weekend.

Level II Trainings

    Shamanism helps us to view living out of balance, whether it demonstrate itself as depression, anxiety, addictions, abuse, sorrow and/or illness, from a spiritual understanding.  Whenever we experience a difficulty in our lives which separates us from our Divinity, an imbalance (spiritual, emotional and/or physical) is created in our being.  This imbalance, being out of harmony, impedes our ability be present in our life and opens us up to dis-ease on all levels of our being.  The following healing modalities are utilized to return balance and harmony to ourselves and in-turn our world.
