These guided shamanic journeys use the steady rhythm of the sacred drum to support you in entering an expanded, state of awareness. In this liminal space, you become more receptive to the subtle realms of perception and spiritual guidance. From here, you are invited to meet a guide (Power Animal or Plant Spirit) who offers its medicine (healing energy, wisdom, guidance) to you. 

 

In shamanic journeying, the messages are rarely delivered through the rational mind. Instead, the healing or guidance is revealed through symbolism, sensation, and/or a quiet knowing that arises from within. You may receive images, smells, feelings in the body, emotions, memories or subtle insights that speak directly to your Soul. Each journey meets you exactly where you are, offering healing, gifts, and guidance in the language you Soul understands.

To drop into the experience of the journey, choose a quiet, uninterrupted space where you can relax and turn your attention inward. Get comfortable with a blanket, pillow etc. You can either lay down or sit upright for your journey. Wearing an eye covering and headphones helps minimize external distractions and allows the journey to unfold more vividly. It is important to create sacred space before your journey. This can be simply using some sacred oils that calm you, or lighting some insense, using smoke cleansing/smudging to clear energy before hand.  Write out an intention ie. to receive a healing that is for your highest good, or whatever resonates with you.

For safety, avoid lighting candles while journeying with your eyes closed, use battery operated candles is a great option.

​

***DO NOT listen to these guided journeys while driving or using any kind of machinery. Ensure after your journey you have returned fully back to your body and your physical space before driving. Ways to ground after journeys - rubbing feet on carpet, rubbing arms and legs vigorously, slow belly breathing, looking around your space and naming what you see, using grounding essential oils like cedarwood, vetiver, sandalwood. 

​

Shamanic work is rooted in the principle of reciprocity. When we work with the helping and compassionate spirits, they are gifting us deep healing, understanding and guidance. In return, we gift them our own form of medicine - an offering. It could be a few words of gratitude, or an offering of sacred herbs to the land. It doesnt have to be elaborate, just from the heart.
