🌱✨ Spring Energies are Stirring — It’s Time to Tend the Seed of Your Becoming ✨🌱 As the light returns and the energies begin to rise, nature reminds us of an ancient truth: nothing is rushed, everything unfolds in its own time.

At Shamanka, our training in Women’s Shamanism and the Healing Arts is shaped around this same natural rhythm — supporting you, step by step, through a journey of deep personal healing, practical skill-building and spiritual awakening.

💫 Where the Journey Begins
Each year opens with our Introductory Weekend — a welcoming, powerful immersion into the Shamanka Way. It’s a chance to feel the work in your body, your heart and your spirit.

From here, those who feel called can step into the Main Training: a year-long journey held across four weekends (Friday–Sunday), spaced throughout the seasons.

Each gathering weaves together ceremony, shamanic journeying, healing practices and sacred ritual. On Sunday mornings throughout the Main Training, we share one of the Munay Ki rites — luminous seeds of transformation from the Andean tradition — gently planting new ways of being that continue to deepen long after the weekend ends. 🌿

🌙 Between the Weekends
Growth continues between gatherings through home practice and reflection.

If you’re joining for personal development, you’re free to move at your own pace, following what feels right for you.

If you wish to train as a Practitioner, you’ll be supported to complete healing sessions with friends or family, writing up case studies and reflections. There are no rigid deadlines — learning unfolds in its own time, and missed weekends can always be attended the following year.

🌺 Beyond the First Year
For those who feel ready to deepen further, the journey continues into the Luminous Warrior second year, leading to an Advanced Practitioner Certificate. From there, some women go on to complete a Master’s level, assist as Helpers, or step into teaching — becoming part of the living legacy created by Eliana Harvey, our visionary founder.

💚 However far you choose to walk, this is a path of the heart — one that nurtures confidence, clarity, grounded strength and connection within a supportive circle of women.

Spring is coming.
The energies are rising.
Now is the time to plant the seed and allow your becoming to grow and blossom.

✨ We warmly invite you to get in touch, ask questions, and explore whether this journey is calling you.

🌱✨ The Countdown Has Begun… The turning of the year when everything begins to stir.
The light lingers longer.
The earth warms.
The sap begins to rise.

Spring unfolds… like the deeper call within us.

At Shamanka, this is the time when we begin to gather again.
To step back into circle.
To follow the thread of what is ready to grow.

Our Main Training in Healing & the Shamanic Arts is approaching, and the journey begins soon. A year of deepening — of learning, remembering, and becoming — held within a supportive circle of women walking this path together.

If something in you has been waiting…
If you feel that gentle nudge…
If you know there is more to explore within yourself…

✨ Now is the time to book your place.

Let this be the season you say yes to your own unfolding.
Let this be the moment you plant the seed.

HEALING & THE SHAMANIC ARTS
THE TRAINING
The Shamanka Practitioner perceives a world of living energy with its own form of awareness and intelligence. During our in-depth and comprehensive training you will learn how to dialogue with this energy for your healing, spiritual evolution and to restore balance to to ourselves and our stressful world.

The Training is a journey which becomes a path of the heart and compassion as we spiral from the external reality of form towards the unseen realms and other realities. We contact an ancient worldwide shamanic heritage and all the healing and practices that you will experience for yourself, become healing modalities that are part of your skills to help others.

🐾✨ Animal Guides of the British Isles ✨🐾 Long before fences, roads and cities, the British Isles were home to a rich web of wild beings. These animals were neighbours, teachers, symbols and guides, woven into folklore, myth and ancestral memory.

🐺 Wolf
Once native to Britain, Wolf is a guide of instinct, loyalty and wild intelligence. Wolf teaches the balance between independence and community, helping us trust inner knowing and reclaim parts of ourselves that may have been silenced.

🐻 Bear
Also once native to these lands, Bear carries the medicine of strength, boundaries and deep renewal. Through hibernation, Bear teaches that rest is sacred and that withdrawal can be a powerful act of healing and preparation.

🦅 Raven
One of the most potent guides in Celtic and northern traditions, Raven is a bridge between worlds. Carrying the medicine of magic, prophecy and transformation, Raven teaches us to sit with mystery, listen beneath appearances, and speak truth with power and integrity. Raven is a messenger of change and ancestral wisdom.

🦌 Deer / Stag
Sacred in Celtic lore, Deer embodies gentleness, sensitivity, majesty and sovereignty. The Stag, shedding and regrowing antlers each year, teaches cycles of death and rebirth — great strength held with grace.

🦉 Owl
Guardian of night and threshold, Owl offers clear sight beyond illusion. Owl medicine supports intuition, truth-seeing and wisdom in the dark spaces of transformation.

🐗 Wild Boar
A symbol of courage, protection and raw vitality, the Boar teaches fearless truth and the strength to meet life head-on. In Celtic myth, Boar is both protector and initiator.

🦦 Otter
Otter brings the medicine of joy, play and emotional flow, teaching us how to dive deep into feeling and resurface with lightness and delight.

These still walk with us, among other native animals; hedgehog, crow, squirrel, fox, hare, stoat and many more— in story, in dream, in instinct and in the land’s memory.

To work with them is not to claim ownership, but to remember relationship — with the wild, our ancestors, and the untamed parts of ourselves.

When an animal guide appears, it often asks:
What part of you is ready to be remembered? 🌿

Life as Ceremony 🌀 Days become infinitely richer when we begin to see not a series of ordinary moments, but a living ceremony.

Ceremony does not only happen in sacred circles, temples or rituals. It can be present in the way we greet the morning light, the way we prepare a meal, the way we listen to another person, or the way we walk upon the earth.

When we slow down enough to recognise this, every interaction becomes a gift of connection. A conversation with a friend, the call of a bird overhead, the feeling of wind on the skin, even the quiet work of the day — all become part of the sacred exchange between ourselves and the energies around us.

In many traditional cultures, ceremony is simply a way of being present. It is the act of bringing awareness, gratitude and intention into what we are doing. Nothing needs to be elaborate. Sometimes the smallest gestures — a breath, a moment of thanks, a pause before speaking — are enough to transform the ordinary into the sacred.

When we walk through life in this way, something shifts.
We become more attentive.
More grateful.
More connected to the web of life.

And slowly we begin to realise that life itself is constantly offering us invitations — to notice, to honour, to participate with care.

Every step becomes a prayer.
Every meeting becomes a moment of grace.
Every day becomes a ceremony. 🌿
