What Is Shamanic Healing?
Shamanic healing is one of the oldest healing traditions in the world, found in cultures across every continent. At its core, it’s a spiritual and energetic practice that helps restore balance within a person—emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. Shamans work by connecting with the unseen world: the subconscious, the soul, and the natural energetic field surrounding all living things.

How Shamanic Healing Works
A shamanic practitioner enters a lightly altered state of consciousness—often through drumming, rattling, rhythmic breathing, or guided journeying. In this state, the practitioner is able to access deeper layers of awareness to:
• Receive insight about the root cause of an issue
This could be emotional wounds, energetic stagnation, trauma, patterns, or old beliefs.
• Clear or shift blocked energy
Heavy, stuck, or fragmented energy can be released or transformed.
• Retrieve lost or disconnected parts of the self
Often called “soul retrieval,” this helps people feel more whole, present, and empowered.
• Restore harmony in the energy field
This may involve bringing in supportive energies, protection, grounding, or clarity.

What a Session Feels Like
Clients often describe shamanic work as deeply calming, grounding, and insightful. During a session, they may experience:
• Sensations of warmth or lightness
• Emotional release
• Visions, images, or memories
• A quiet mind
• A sense of reconnection with themselves or their purpose
They don’t need any special abilities—just openness to the process.

What Shamanic Healing Can Support
Shamanic work is not a replacement for medical or psychological treatment, but it can complement other healing approaches and support:
• Stress, emotional overwhelm, anxiety
• Feeling stuck or disconnected
• Old patterns that keep repeating
• Grief, loss, heartbreak
• Fatigue, low energy, or burnout
• A desire for deeper meaning, purpose, or connection
• Trauma held in the body or energy field

Why It Helps
Shamanic healing works by reaching layers of the self that talk therapy or physical treatments sometimes cannot reach. It creates movement where there has been stagnation and brings insight where there has been confusion. Many people feel lighter, more aligned, and clearer after a session.

What You Can Expect From Me as Your Practitioner
As a practitioner, I create a safe, grounded, and protected space for the work. I guide the process, interpret the symbols and messages that arise, and help integrate whatever shifts occur. Everything is done with intention, respect, and confidentiality.
