And
SHAMANIC DIVINATION IN PRACTICE™ (ONLINE)
OR
BASIC WORKSHOP: THE WAY OF THE SHAMAN® (IN PERSON)
Recommended(not required): The Shamanic Worldview: Everything is Alive™ (offered later in January)
Effective shamanic practice depends upon knowledge of the spirit realms and how to access them to build strong relationships with compassionate helping spirits. Powerful shamanic healing requires training, discipline, and experience.
In this experiential workshop, you will have the opportunity to personally explore: the three worlds of the shaman (Upper, Lower, and Middle Worlds) and the qualities of ordinary and non-ordinary reality; the nature of the spirits of the three worlds; and Middle World non-ordinary reality spiritual aspects and their relationship to illness and wholeness.
Primary shamanic healing methods will be described, including shamanic extraction healing, psychopomp, and soul retrieval. You will learn and practice power animal retrieval, working with another participant to both retrieve and receive a power animal.
This experiential online training taught by FSS faculty member Kerri Husman is offered via Zoom video conferencing. Participants will see and hear each other and interact in pairs and small groups, as well as in the full circle.
All students must participate with audio and video and access the meeting through their own individual device.
Instructions for Zoom (free to individual users) and workshop access will be provided as needed. You will have access to the Zoom link in your portal and receive reminders 48 hours prior to class. You can log into your link at any time to update Zoom on your device automatically.
The course consists of 7 hours of training. Kerri may teach the workshop in two 3.5-hour sessions or in an 9-hour one-day session with longer breaks.
