Continuing the work we have achieved in year 1, this course will take you a step further into exploring shamanism in a much deeper way with the aim to become a practitioner and be of service to your community.

Next Practitioner Training starting on 17th and 18th November 2012

Modules of the course

Soul Retrieval I

When we suffer a trauma, be it small or major, a part of our soul, a part of our essence leaves our body and that is our way to cope or survive. That part of us has the ability to live in other dimensions because we are, by nature, multidimensional beings. When soul lost occurs, we are left with a feeling that something is missing but we are not quite sure what that is. Sometimes it is a sense of not being here, not being present, sometimes it is a sense of confusion, not being able to have clarity or direction, sometimes it is being stuck in enacting suffering and pain. Childhood trauma is a very common reason for needing a soul retrieval. When a healing takes place at a soul level, very often, it has an effect in all other levels. Healing cannot take place if the person is in a dis-empowered place. First thing to do is to empower the person and we start by calling the person's spirit helpers. The helpers provide power, energy and support. In this work we will explore the basics of Soul Retrieval. How do we know a soul retrieval is needed, where to start and how the person can help for a smooth integration process afterwards. Soul retrieval, although very simple, is one of the most powerful shamanic healing one can have.

Soul Retrieval II

Developing a bit further, challenging all our assumptions, we will now explore the process of taking a step back and simply facilitating the soul retrieval. How to identify if the client is empowered enough, how to monitor the process, how to trust and let Spirit do the work. There is no better feeling then the feeling of seeing your client empowered and in charge of their own healing process. When your client is fully empowered is when real healing takes place.

Extraction

A very common type of energetic illness and complain brought for Shamanic practitioners to work on is the removal of intrusive energies. If for whatever reason we have a hole in our energy field, negative energies can come and stay in that space. Those energies can manifest themselves as negative thoughts, physical illnesses or pain and sometimes even suicidal thoughts. Those energies can also be coming from other people e.g. envy, bad thoughts or anger. During the weekend we will learn to identify when an Extraction is needed and how to perform an extraction. This is another ancient healing technique where the shaman has to have sufficient power, therefore, the importance of learning to be ruthless is fundamental for this work.

Psychopomp work

One of the most important roles of the Shamanic practitioner is to help lost souls to complete their journey into the afterworld. Compassion and unconditional love are the essential powers to accomplish this work. Trapped energies, transforming places of negativity, space clearing are also included in the teachings of this weekend.
