Introduction to Shamanism

with Twobirds

15-16 May & 7-8 August

Shamanism is the most time tested mind/body healing method that we know of today dating back at least 40.000 years. It was practiced in all five continents which includes the Celtic and Pictish peoples of ancient Britain.

Shamanism is a spiritual practice as well as a philosophy and a method for healing. Through the use of these ancient ways the practitioner undertakes what is called a 'shamanic journey', a remarkable visionary method employed by mankind to access other realms. Shamanic journeys are used for healing purposes, problem solving and general well-being - either for the self, another individual, the community, or the land and its inhabitants. Focusing on the shamanic journey, this weekend workshop will introduce the basic principles of core-shamanism including:
