What is Shamanism

Shamanism is the oldest spiritual healing modality with roots on nearly every continent. It is uniquely based on animism the belief that everything living has a soul or spirit. Important to note - it is not formed on the premise of a particular God or even religion. A shaman is traditionally an indigenous healer, born a shaman who uses powerful tools to tap into the unseen world through an altered state of consciousness for insight on behalf of others.

Having great respect for the word “Shaman” I personally refer to myself as a shamanic practitioner or medicine woman. Well-trained practitioners use techniques drawn from indigenous practices and adapted for use in today’s world to aid in emotional and physical healing and guidance. A fundamental belief of shamanism is that many physical, emotional, and mental problems are rooted in an imbalance in one’s spiritual health.
