The Shamanic Way of Living and Healing
Practitioner Training
Shamanism is a way of enhancing our conscious connection to nature, the cycles of birth, death and rebirth, moon cycles, the seasons, and the different stages we move through in our development from child, teenager, adult and elder. The Shamanic way of living is seeing the Universe and all within it as interconnected, exchanging energy, enhancing healing, and heightening our intuitive gifts. It is through this inter-connectiveness that we can access ancient wisdom and healing-working with the Divine Mother-Father God, Gaia, the Divine Beings who watch over not just the planet but us, Spirit Guides & Teachers and our Ancestors Healing Guides. We also draw from the strengths of the animal kingdom, learning from them ways to maintain healthy boundaries, connect to our deep inner strength within our Soul and also how to heal our inner wounds.
This Shamanic Practitioner training course is 6 weekends, allowing time for you to start this journey from a place within, where you will learn about who you are, what your innate healing strengths and abilities are, allowing time for walking the path of the Wounded Healer and growing from the lessons in order to fully ground your Divine essence within the physical form that your Soul inhabits on the planet at this time. In doing so, you will have the ability to use this way of being as the strong roots that hold you as you reach far into the other realms.
We will explore the many ancient ways of achieving an Altered State of Consciousness that the many tribes throughout the planet practiced over 50,000 years ago-Drumming, Rattling, Trance Dancing and more. Though our time together, we will look at the different healing techniques used within shamanic practice and how they can bring about lasting change in your life, and also explore the importance of ritual and ceremony and much more.

This course will be opening a sacred space for the group, allowing the energetic bonds to form and the heart centered focus of the group to be felt. During this course we will take time to create a Morning and Evening ritual, learn how to create sacred space, explore creating an Altar and using it's directions and elements as a form of support and guidance. Each weekend time will be spent practicing stalking awareness in nature, looking at the different ways of journeying, connecting with the Ancestors and our innate Spiritual strengths, Healing Circle, Trance Dancing. We will be working closely with nature, it's cycles and how we move through cycles in our lives and the relationships we have. We'll be connecting with Mother Earth both energetically and through the use of flower essences, learning how to read the signs that spirit offers us as guidance, insight and healing as we navigate our way through our inner worlds.
The Cycle of Life, Death and Re-birth
This part of the course takes us on a journey to explore the subject that many find uncomfortable-Death. Many of us are unaware of the many “deaths” we move through on a very regular basis-change of role within a family unit, loss of relationship, moving house, work related changes. We move through this process many times, and also experience the sadness of physical death which can be very upsetting and have a long term effect on us.
During this part of the Workshop we will explore our attitudes to Death-where we go when we die and be-friend the cycle of life, death, rebirth. We will look at the ways that we can work with death personally and professionally, preparing for the journey into the next stage of Spiritual existence, completing unfinished business and releasing any fears that tie the Spirit to the physical body.
You will also be shown ways of helping a Soul move through the veil from the physical to the etheric so that they are not wandering here in the physical plane, lost in the confusion regarding their passing.

The Shamanic Way of Healing
The Shamanic view on illness is that it occurs due to power loss, soul loss or intrusions. It is important while exploring the cause of the illness not to get loss in the story as to why it happened but to acknowledge the lesson, restore power and balance and actively engage in maintaining strong healthy boundaries in order to avoid a re-occurrence of the issue.
During this workshop you will connect with your innate healing gifts and also strengthen the bond with your healing Guide. From this place of enhanced healing you will be learning how to restore power to an individual suffering from power loss and also how to work with the energy body using the shamanic methods of removal of intrusions, tunnel healing, ritual and working with plant medicine.

Soul Retrieval
Soul Loss can occur when an individual experiences huge shock or illness in their life. There are many causes for this- accidents, loss of a loved one, separation, abuse, severe illness. At the time of the incident the Soul leaves the body and sometimes the Soul may not fully integrate with the body afterwards as it doesn’t feel it is safe to do so.
There are many signs of Soul loss
Soul Retrieval is a very important part of Shamanic healing, as it enables the individual to be more present in their life and from that allows them to take a more active role in their healing journey.
You will be taught how to work with somebody suffering from Soul Loss, how to track, retrieve and return a Soul part to the individual. We will explore the importance of maintaining a healthy relationship with your Inner power, returning power to those that you may have taken it from and calling back parts of yourself that you may have given away.
Upon completion of all 6 weekend workshops you will be awarded a fully recognised Shamanic Practitioner certificate.
The journey of the Shaman is one of self- healing, also known as the journey of the Wounded Healer. This is the most important journey we can take. It can bring us to the lost, angry, hurt parts of ourselves and through holding space for those parts we offer ourselves the opportunity to not only heal the past but to reclaim any power we lost along the way which will become the fuel to assist us in creating a beautiful fulfilled future.
When considering working with others, it is important that you have done your own inner work, because to go on the journey of healing with another, you must at least be familiar with the emotions, experiences or fears that came appear along the way. You don't necessary have to have lived the experience that a client is trying to heal and grow from, but it is important to be able to empathise with your client and feel confident in being able to assist them offers them a space that is safe, supportive and sometimes very exciting.
Come sit by the stove in my home by the sea and allow yourself be held gently as you begin, or possibly expand on the magical transformations and healing that can come from the gift of the Shamanic Way and Healing. The trees in the garden will offer you grounding and shelter if needed, and the sea will assist in cleansing your heart of whatever is lying heavy on it. This is your time to answer the call from within, and drop deep into the adventure that awaits you, as you expand energetically and navigate the invisible realms and .
