Shamanic Workshops

Long before the rise of our state level societies, our indigenous ancestors discovered powerful methods for mastering the capabilities of the human body-mind-spirit complex. Today, there is a resurgence of interest in the ancient, time-tested ways of the shaman for entering mystical states of consciousness for healing and problem solving. Shamanism has emerged as a major thrust of the modern mystical movement.

Visionseeker Level I: The Spiritwalker Teachings

Visionseeker 1

This retreat includes elements of the weekend workshops, but in greater depth. We will utilize the classic shamanic journey method to establish connections with our spirit helpers and teachers, ancestral spirits, and possibly descendants.

We will begin to examine the nature of health, illness, and healing from the perspective of the traditional shaman, and the week will conclude with a powerful healing ritual. This workshop provides a clear introduction for those less familiar with the shaman's path and will enhance the practice of more experienced inner travelers.Read more

VisionSeeker Level 3: Shamanic Cosmology

This is a powerful 5-day retreat for those wanting to create a more intrimate relationship with both their Higher Self/Oversoul as well as their Guide-their Oversoul's teacher. This retreat focuses primarily upon shamanic cosmology - where we use investigative shamanic fieldwork to explore the sacred dimensions where all mysteries, great and small, may become known. Our connections with our oversoul, as well as our committee of elder spirit teachers, will be deepened and broadened, fine-tuning our ability to do divination work among other things. Read more

Spiritwalker: Core Shamanism

An introductory weekend experiential workshop in which the classic method of shamanic journeywork is taught. Utilizing the way of the shaman, we connect with the inner levels of reality, awareness and experience to find our spirit helpers and teachers, those inner sources who are intimately connected with our life purpose, and who provide us with power, protection, knowledge and support. The weekend includes work with empowerment of self and others and will conclude with a healing ritual.

The Mystical Nature of the Self

A weekend experiential workshop in which participants explore the three principle aspects of the self, the nature of reality, as well as the nature of the soul cluster from the perspective of the Hawaiian kahuna mystic. We also focus on the 'aumakua, the immortal, ancestral spiritual aspect of the self and examine its relationship with the physical body and the energy body with relation to healing and personal evolution.

Ancestral Spirits

A weekend experiential workshop in which participants utilize the principles of core shamanism to reconnect with their ancestral spirits to further the well-being of the self and the family. We will be reconnecting with the ones who function as protectors and guardians as well as teachers. The gathering will include medicinework specifically oriented toward ancestral healing and will conclude with a healing ritual.

The Shaman and the Elementals

A weekend workshop in which we investigate how to use our body and our mind as a bridge between the visible and the invisible worlds, allowing gifts to flow from the hidden spiritual realms into ours. As gatekeepers, shamans know that we tend have a special relationship with one of the elemental spirits through which specific gifts may be conveyed. It is also known in many indigenous cultures that we are born embodying one of the elementals as part of our essence and that the gifts that we receive through them may determine the shape of our own unique genius.Read more
