Introduction to Shamanism

This course can be taken as either a series of six evenings or a weekend workshop.

Participants will be introduced to some of the main ideas and methods used for thousands of years by shamans around the world. We will work within a core shamanic framework which is culturally non-specific and enables people to explore a path of individual and collective wisdom while discovering how shamanism can empower daily life.

Participants will –
• learn the basic techniques of shamanic journeying to connect with helpers in the spirit world
• visit the different worlds of the spirits to find help, healing and information
• learn how to bring back the power and wisdom available in the spirit world and integrate it into this reality
• explore how to practically use shamanism in everyday life for help with life changes, problem solving, healing, and accessing personal power
• learn how to journey on behalf of other people
• learn basic shamanic healing
• look at the ethics of shamanic work
• work with nature (6 week workshop only)

Completion gives access to advanced shamanic courses with ourselves and affiliated teachers and an ongoing shamanic circle with the London Open Drumming Group

A series of 6 evening workshops
The course runs over 6 Thursday evenings with each session building on the last to enable participants to better understand their experiences and gain confidence when working alone. Homework between the sessions enables participants to deepen their relationships with the helpers they meet and explore different ways of working.

All six sessions must be attended to complete the course. Each meeting builds on what is learnt in the previous meeting so it is not possible to start this course if you are unable to attend every meeting.
