The power to heal yourself, your lineage, and generations to come is within you...
This healing power can change your family, your relationships, your health, your destiny, and even our beautiful Earth.
Whether imprinted in your DNA… held in the unresolved issues of the dead… or taught through the cultural narrative… ancestral wisdom and wounding can be passed on for generations.
Ancestral lineage healing can be a deeply cathartic practice, opening you to grief, forgiveness, and emotional healing you may have been unable to generate through any other practice….
Culvating “right” relationship with your ancestors helps clear the way for you and your living family to break free of past woundings, to live passionately and purposefully, and to fully embrace your destinies.
Your ancestors, both well and unwell, are much more than everyday spirit guides…
Your ancestors who lived well, who left their affairs in order and relationships reconciled, or who were honored as a positive force for change, have unique wisdom to share with you. You can also learn to enlist their help to clear stagnant, unresolved energies — freeing you and your living family of these wounds.
And surprisingly, ancestors who struggled against the oppressions of their time, who were enslaved — or were the enslavers or oppressors — and who experienced unhealed trauma or depression, illness, or addiction, can be your greatest allies in healing.
Unhealthy patterns in your family can now end with you…
Your ancestors are a source of hope, clarity, resilience, and joy as well — when you know how to lovingly draw on their skills and bravery to live a more authentic life and express your soul’s purpose.
You don’t need special “powers” or intuitive abilities to connect with your ancestors and tap into their wisdom and guidance. Potent elemental rituals, shrine-building, prayers, and other practices can ignite profound healing in you and your bloodline.
With great skill, Christina, who has more than 30 years experience in shamanic and ancestral healing, will also guide you in a process of:
Diagnosis: Journey to explore and trace a blocked energy with the help of your ancestral guides. You’ll be guided to locate the ancestor with whom the issue or trauma began so you can assess and heal the wounding.
Remedy: Find powerful antidotes to your originating ancestor’s unhealthy energy — and put an end to the turmoil still showing up in your life today.
Quarantine: For ancestral traumas that are so deeply entrenched, or that you’re simply not equipped to address — you’ll be guided through a process to quarantine them until you can call in the help that you need.
Christina emphasizes that you have more good, true, and beautiful Ancestral Helping Spirits than those who are unwell. You’ll cultivate a strong working relationship with these Helping Spirits to address and transform the damaging effects of unresolved patterns into sacred medicine and blessings.
In this 7-part training, you’ll discover the originating ancestor with whom a particular issue or trauma began, and move through the process of clearing this energy pattern from your life and lineage.
You’ll join Christina Pratt in each session and receive powerful ancestral healing teachings — and guidance in shamanic journeying, shrine-building, and ritual-making practices. Each session will build harmoniously on the previous ones, giving you a solid foundation to connect with your ancestors for mutual healing.
How does our modern-day knowledge of ancestral healing apply to you, your ancestors, and the circumstances of your life?
In your first class together, Christina will help you begin your Ancestral Prayer to call the legacy of all that is good, true, and beautiful into your life.
As you’ll discover in this session, you have a vast number of ancestors who lived well, died well, and are ready, willing, and able to serve as true Ancestral Helping Spirits.
And it’s time for you to meet them.
In this module, you’ll:
Are you ready for your Ancestral Helping Spirits’ rich legacy to flow freely to you, day and night? First, you’ll need to create and tend to your own ancestral shrine, calling their legacy into your life — and in this class, Christina will show you how.
Christina will also guide you to come into right relationship with people who’ve loved you from the moment of your conception.
Connecting with the supportive ancestral guides in your lineage could be the first step in helping you break free from painful legacies that no longer serve you — and find the peace, connection, and belonging you desire.
In this module, you’ll:
Whether they’re well or unwell, our ancestors are forever connected to us through our bloodlines. In this session, you’ll discover how to tell the difference between the unresolved dead and your true Ancestral Helping Spirits.
Understanding this distinction is essential — the energy of these ghosts continues to show up in your wounds, unexplained physical illness, emotional distress and more.
While these ghosts are ancestors too, they should never be called in as helping spirits as long as their issues remain unresolved.
In this module, you’ll:
To get to the root of your life’s difficulties, you’ll need to trace it back to the originating ancestor. During this class, you’ll learn to track the patterns of problems you’re facing in your life — and follow them back into the ancestral realm, so true healing can begin.
You’ll learn the fundamentals of the diagnosis-remedy-quarantine process:
Diagnosis. Tracking an energy with the help of your well ancestors until you discover the ancestor with whom the issue or trauma began. You’ll do this through journey, felt-sense, and more.
Remedy. Determining the proper antidote to address your originating ancestor’s energy and put an end to the ancestral turmoil still showing up in your life today.
Quarantine. Sometimes you’ll discover that ancestral trauma is so deeply entrenched, you’re simply not equipped to address it — you can then quarantine it until you can call in the help that you need.
In this module, you’ll dive deeper into the first step in the process, diagnosis, as you discover:
In this session, you’ll dive even deeper into the diagnosis-remedy-quarantine process you discovered in the last class...
Now that you’ve discovered the ancestral origin of your present-day patterns (diagnosis), Christina will show you how to determine the appropriate remedy — with plenty of help from your ancestors.
In this module, you’ll also:
What if, after you’ve diagnosed an ancestral pattern and then tried to determine its remedy with your ancestors’ assistance — you discover you’re dealing with a deeply entrenched energy pattern that isn’t yours to heal after all?
You can choose to quarantine it for now, clearing your space to ask for the help to do what's needed to clear and release this energy for future generations. During this class, you’ll discover how to do just that — once again, with the help of your ancestors.
In this module, you’ll discover:
In your final step of this powerful journey with Christina, you and your new global community of seekers will gather in ceremony. You will share and be witnessed, bringing the powerful guidance of your Ancestral Helping Spirits forward with their blessings, medicine gifts, and protection.
In this class, we explore the possible future of ancestral healing in community to transform our communal illness and dysfunction. Together and with our good, true, and beautiful ancestors, we’ll look toward a different future, and nurture that hope and possibility at our ancestral shrines.
During this module, you’ll also:
In addition to Christina’s transformative 7-part virtual course, you’ll receive these powerful training sessions with leading visionaries and teachers. These bonus sessions complement the course and promise to take your understanding and practice to an even deeper level.
John Lockley is a fully initiated sangoma (healer and shaman) in the Xhosa lineage of South Africa. His remarkable journey through the constraints of Apartheid is a testament to the human spirit, and to the power of forgiveness and reconciliation. John shares traditional Xhosa practices for cultivating a vital, working relationship with one’s ancestors and the power of reconciliation in healing the ancestral lines. In this interview, he speaks with deep insight about the guidance we can draw from the past and the places we will need to innovate if we are to heal our ancestors and ourselves.
Embodiment, movement, and dance allow us to “sink our minds” and drop into the wisdom of our heart and soul. This bonus offers you a pathway through musical inspiration, and step-by-step guidance to fully embody your good, true, and beautiful bloodline ancestors and all of their protection, blessings, and gifts. This bonus can be used again and again to deepen your relationship with your ancestors and your heart connection to their legacy.
In this “How To...” document, Christina Pratt draws on the multicultural tradition of creating ancestral shrines to share the universal guiding principles for creating, opening, tending, and passing on ancestral shrines. From these basics of working safely and effectively, we leave traditions behind and explore where we, people long lost from ancestral traditions, must innovate, create, and hazard wild intuitions to work well with our ancestors. In this way, the distinction between the (wildly inaccurate) notion of “ancestral worship” and simple truth of coming into right relationship with your ancestors is made clear.
I just want to thank you for a most incredible learning and living experience. It was not so much being exposed to new ideas as much as it was a profound sense of coming home... Thank you for your gracious and loving way of sharing your knowledge. It gave me tremendous hope that there is a way out of the hole we seem to be digging as a species.

— Luann
I want to thank you so much for your previous radio show on grounding. I am a dedicated listener, and have had two powerful, amazing soul-retrieval sessions with you. ...I love all of your shows, but this one in particular, with its visualization and direct teaching lead by you, was so powerful and visceral in addition to being theoretical. The grounding visualization is changing my life already as I ask myself each time I get fragmented, Whose life do you want to be living?
— Elana S.
I discovered your podcast a couple of weeks ago... and am looking forward to listening to all of them. I experienced my first shamanic healing, and listening to your show has been so deeply helpful and supportive. Thank you!
