We are excited to bring you this introductory special to shamanism, it might be short in duration, but it packs a punch.

6 week Introduction to Shamanism
Next course begins Tuesday 5th May and runs every Tuesday 1830-2030hrs in our dedicated space on the 1st floor at Renaissance Apothecary
Shamanic Journeying
The Shamanic journey is the cornerstone of shamanism, inviting individuals to explore altered states of consciousness through the rhythmic beat of the shamanic drum. This age-old technique serves as a bridge to the ethereal realms, enabling, firstly, deep inner exploration and self-discovery, and secondly, discovery of the hidden planes known as the shamanic cosmos. As the steady pulse of the drum reverberates, it synchronises with the body’s own rhythms, inducing a trance-like state that allows practitioners to connect with their inner selves and the spirit world. In this sacred space, journeyers may encounter guides, receive insights, and integrate healing energies. It is the shamanic journeying process that enables every other action within shamanism.
Shamanic Guides
In this section of the course we conduct shamanic journey's to reconnect with your Shamanic Guides. These are guides you made an agreement with to support you during this lifetime. They may be different to guides whom you have connected with in the past, if you are already walking a spiritual path. You will connect with your main shamanic guide - this is a profound reconnection and is probably one of the most important connections you can make. They are a fountain of knowledge and will support most of your journeys thereafter. You will also connect with your power animal, a spirit being in animal form, one dedicated to supporting your path, lending you qualities of the entire species. This journey is often a case of 'forget what you think you know' and more a case of being open minded to connect with the species that shows up. They can offer you protection, support journeys and help in healing methods. They are also a great source of wisdom and comfort.
Personal Protection
One of the most important elements to organise during shamanic journey's is the setting up of your personal protection. We understand how important it is to feel safe and be safe during our sessions. Safety is everyones responsibility and here you learn how to set up your personal protection and ensure you are protected at all times.
Power Release and Retrieval
During this process we will journey with the intention of reclaiming power lost to abusive, controlling, or dominating relationships (this does not only regard intimate relationship but rather can be across all spectrums of relationships with others) is a profound and transformative process. Such relationships can leave individuals feeling diminished and trapped, often leading to a disconnection from their true selves. Reclaiming lost power can have profound effects and begin the healing of wounds inflicted by toxic dynamics, cultivate self-awareness, and establish healthier boundaries. We will also explore situations where we too have taken power from others with a view to releasing that power back to whom it belongs.
Past Life Remembrance
Exploring, remembering, learning, and healing past lives through shamanism offers a profound experience. This journey invites you to delve into the depths of your higher held memories, unlocking the wisdom and lessons of previous incarnations, providing a deeper understanding of one's current life experiences, facilitating healing and personal growth. Particularly important if:
- You experience unexplained fears or emotional reactions
- You feel “pulled” toward certain people or places
- You repeat patterns without clear cause
- You carry deep grief or longing
- You feel “born with” a burden
Soul Fragmentation
Soul retrieval is a fundamental practice in shamanism, reflecting a profound understanding of the intricate relationship between the mind, body, and spirit. This process often occurs when an individual experiences trauma, loss, or deep emotional upheaval, which can lead to what may be described as the fragmentation of the soul. During such distressing events, parts of the soul may dissociate to protect themselves from overwhelming pain or fear, resulting in a sense of incompleteness, disconnection, or emotional numbness in the individual. The importance of retrieving these lost soul pieces lies in the restoration of wholeness and balance within one’s being. By undergoing soul retrieval, individuals can reclaim their vitality and strengthen their spiritual identity.
