SHAMANIC HEALING SESSIONS

In Shamanic Traditions it is believed that all pain, suffering, mental,  physical, and emotional disturbances and symptoms are caused by  spiritual illness and soul loss. Spiritually humans lose their soul/power  (parts of the essence and life force energy) for many different reasons including thought and behavior patterns, stressful life circumstances, death of a loved one, illness, relationships, jobs,  accidents, injury, traumatic events, prolong and everyday stresses. 

To assist the person requesting healing the shamanic practitioner alters their state of consciousness through receptive drum beats and rattling to journey into the spirit world. The practitioner works in relationship with the helping compassionate spirits on behalf of the person's healing request. 

It is in this journey trance that the healing is conducted. 

The intention of receiving a shamanic healing session can be of many reasons but ultimately spirit helps to restore power, health, balance, and harmony. Spirit serves as both great spiritual advisors and problem solvers. They are fierce protectors and miraculous healers.

Core Shamanic Methods 

Shamanic Divination - is a method of asking questions and aquiring answers from spirit. The practitioner will journey on the clients behalf with questions and return with a reading of insight that is directly related to the question or healing at hand.

Power Animal Retrieval -  A power animal is a spirit helper that comes to a person in animal form and embodied with the qualities of the animal. It offers support, teachings, guidance, power, and protection. A power animal can stay with one over a lifetime or for just a period of time to assist one in life.  

Extraction Healing - This method removes negative intrusions that are lodged into a persons body  for many different reasons. Negative thoughts or energy from person, places, or things may cause an intrusion. Unexplained illness, pain, and exhaustion are just some of the symptoms caused by spiritual intrusions. 

Soul Retrieval - Soul loss can occur from a traumatic life event and shows up similar to an intrusion. In general one may feel like they haven't been the same after the traumatic event leaving them with a piece of their soul lost or fragmented. Soul Retrieval may take multiple sessions and personal work of clearing the path for a soul part to return.

Death and Dying - This natural part of life is one of the hardest to face. It's normal to have fear and worry about the unknown. A shamanic practitioner is well acquainted with this realm and can offer assistance through shamanic journey work on the clients behalf for healing, to restore peace, and prepare for transition. As with all shamanic healing permission is needed for this work. 

 Psychopomp Healing-  A shamanic practitioner works with the living, dying, and the dead. Psychopomp is a term that means helping to assist the soul of a person who has died to complete their transition into the spirit world. Most humans transition naturally and do not need assistance but in some cases especially in sudden and tragic circumstances a soul may need help releasing attachments to the human world. Through shamanic journey a practitioner is able to check on the recently departed and help if needed only with permission. 

Ceremony - Creating a ceremony with helping spirits on behalf of your healing is a beautiful way to initiate a healing journey or bring completion to a journey. It's also a very helpful way to honor a loss and transition in life or a moving forward. If ceremony is called for a shamanic practitioner will work with their helping spirits to create a healing ceremony just for you and the situation in need. Together the practitioner and participant will take part in the ceremony specifically crafted just for you. This may take place at your location, in Meredith's office space, outside, or online. Spirit will guide the details.
