This two-year training in Core Shamanism begins in October 2008, and introduces participants to the world of the shaman, and the classical, core practices that a shaman uses to heal clients, him/herself and the community.
Core shamanism consists of the fundamental defining elements of shamanic practice and belief, found almost universally across all shamanic cultures. Among these practices are:
The Healing Journey
Restoration of Power (Power Animal Retrieval)
Divination, the method & art of obtaining information for oneself or another)
Work with Death and the Dying (Psychopomp), helping those in transition & releasing spirits that are stuck
Extraction, removal of spiritual intrusions
Soul Retrieval, restoration of soul parts/fragments that have left the body
...and many others. (Visit our Core Shamanism page for an overview of this topic.)
