WELCOME

“The sacredness of the Earth and all around us have divine  consciousness.
Spirit is in everything, everywhere and in each one of us.”

In 2003, Claudia Goncalves and Mark Halliday founded the Edinburgh Shamanic Centre – a charitable organisation first located in Portobello and now in Balerno, Edinburgh. They work with individuals, communities and they train groups who come from many  parts of the world for their Shamanic teachings and trainings.

In 2004, with their first input and contribution, “A Roda do Sol”, a project supporting children affected or infected by HIV/AIDS in Brazil started. A house was rented and the first “Social Mum” employed to care for the children arriving in the project. www.apoitcha.org

In 2005, they helped create The Youth Vision Project. A unique programme offering rites of passage for young people age 14 to 18 yrs old in Balerno, Edinburgh. With the overwhelming success of the project, in 2009 Youth Vision gained charitable status. www.youthvisionscotland.co.uk 

In 2006, they founded the Community Foundation for Planetary Healing which was a call for the coming together of other members of the community in alignment with their vision and principle of awakening our collective capacity to be of service to others. The Foundation then became the umbrella organization holding charitable status. The Foundation today counts with twenty four volunteers supporting its work.

In 2007, the Holistic Community Health Project was created and it offers Holistic Therapies, yoga, art and story by donation for people who find themselves in an economically disadvantaged position.  www.planetaryhealing.co.uk

Cláudia and Mark are widely recognised and respected for their authenticity, heart based work, commitment and community empowerment, making them two of the world's finest and foremost Shamanic Teachers.

Most of the work at the Shamanic Centre is facilitated by them and quite often they also have the great honour to have other well known and respected shamanic practitioners visiting to share their work and wisdom. Facilitators such as Don Americo Yabar, Leo Rutherford, Franco Santoro, Geo Trevarthen, David Wendl-Berry, Wayne Kealohi Powell and Robert Hawks . The Shamanic Centre is also blessed with the work and support of local Sundoor Fire walking facilitators and shamanic practitioners Daila Consolaro and Diane Mackay.
