Shamanism

Shamanism is the oldest spiritual practice.

When we realize we relate and connect to everything around us, the sun, the skies, the wind and the land, we remember where we come from.

It becomes a call, a yearning to return home.

If you are reading these lines, most probably your soul has began the search for the path that will bring you back to belonging, to communion and to wholeness.

Shamanic practices are diverse and extensive. There are as many traditions as many cultural expressions around the globe. But, there are universal principles that appear in every one of these traditions like the belief that all that exists has a soul and its energy can be perceived and connected. Also, the notion that the creation extends beyond what we can perceive with our ordinary eyes and all shamans awaken the innate capacity of accessing different realities by altering their consciousness.

The School of Healing Arts is currently offering courses in Core Shamanism for the introductory level and advanced studies in Peruvian Shamanism.

Also, every student can opt to join our private Facebook group, a safe and supporting environment where we share our experiences as we deepen in the teachings and practice.

Also, The Healing Tribe offers Shamanic Gatherings and Ceremonies and a Journey Circle for the students and the public.
