Shamanic Healing is probably the oldest spiritual practice known to humankind. It helps you by healing the effects of past traumas, so that you can live a life in an inner state of balance and connection with yourself and the rest of the world. Whether it is an emotional or a physical issue you come with, the practitioner looks at the spiritual aspects of it: we are all beings of energy, and if this energy does not flow properly, an illness might appear.
Illness is in fact classified under three main aspects:
- Loss of power, where you might be faced with chronic depression or a series of misfortunes, for example. A power animal retrieval is carried out to bring back the ‘power’ that was lost.
- Loss of soul, where your vital essence leaves your body to survive the trauma. You might feel not present in your body, or that something is missing in your life; you might suffer from addictions, depression, immune conditions for example. The practitioner will carry out a soul retrieval to bring back the soul part(s), which are ready to come back at this time to help you feeling whole again.
- Misplaced energy, or ‘spiritual intrusion’ that might come into the body to fill the void created by the loss. They are normally seen as localised illness, like a pain n the shoulder. In this case, an extraction will take place, where the intrusion is removed.
A session lasts about two hours: after an initial consultation, you lie on a mat, eyes closed, simply focusing on your intention. The practitioner will then rattle/drum (or uses a drumming cd) to help her going in an altered state of consciousness where she can meet with her power animals and guides who are helping in the journey. There is in fact a teamwork between practitioner-power animals-client. The practitioner will then share the healing and the message received (which are recorded on a tape). Finally, you are guided through an integration process.
The effects of a healing session vary from person to person, and while a change can be experienced straight away (like a feeling of wholeness or happiness, for example), the healing can take a while to integrate. You need to take full responsibility while making the necessary changes according to the message received. The practitioner will continue to offer support after the healing. A follow-up session can usually take place after a few months.
