Shamanism is one of the oldest forms of spirituality known to humankind and dates back 100,000 years.  This fact alone attests to the effectiveness of the practice.  It was used cross-culturally – Africa, India, China, Japan, Australia, Europe and South and North America.  If we go back far enough in our culture, all our ancestors were involved in shamanic practice.  The word shaman comes from Siberia, and translates to s/he who sees in the dark, or “healer”.

Seeing in the dark can be a reference to the shamanic journey which is a method used by shamanic people for various reasons.  Shamans would journey to access information for the good of the tribe.  Where is the best place for the tribe to move to that will sustain them?  What plants can be used in healing and what are their attributes?  To receive guidance and knowledge.  To connect with nature and all there is.  The first midwives and spiritual leaders, herbalists and meditators were our shamanic ancestors.

The shamans today say we have lost our way.  We no longer walk in harmony with nature.  We have become a materialistic society.  We are “dreaming the wrong dream”.

It is a very challenging time on the planet right now and every person contributes to the future of the earth.  If we hold gloom and doom for the planet, for the waters and the air, for global warming;  if we think there is no hope…. then this becomes what we dream into being.  It is no “secret” any more that we create what we think.  We cannot think one thing and create another!  Energy follows thought.  What are we thinking?  What are we saying?  We are responsible, as a collective, for everything that happens on the planet.

It is time to dream a new dream.

Let us dream in a new planet.  A new way of being.  An Earth with abundance, food, clothing and shelter for every child, man and woman, regardless of creed or race.  Fresh, clean  air to breathe and sparkling clear waters.  An earth free of toxins to grow nurturing food.  A planet that respects all of  life, fish and flyers, animals and insects.  Medicine and clean water for humans and animals.  Justice and fairness for all.  Through shamanism we have tools to help us clear our toxic thoughts and behaviours.  Working with our core issues and changing our patterns are an effective way to shift our consciousness and what we put out into the world.  How do we do this?  The shamanic journey and working with the helping spirits - Awakening to the Spirit World - is a powerful way for us to join together and create change.

We can do this together.  Circles around the world gathering to hold this energy together.  Do not underestimate the power of the thoughts and energy of one human being.

Let us Heal Together.  Learn how to transform our energy and become a healing force for all that has life, including yourself.
