Sandra Ingerman, MA
Explore the ancient practice of shamanism and ceremonial shamanic journeying to receive healing, encouragement, and higher guidance from helping spirits in non-ordinary realms with one of the world’s most respected teachers.
What does it feel, look, and sound like to have an intimate connection with helping spirits and nature beings of the unseen realms?
Shamanic journeying to worlds beyond our world has been a proven path to connect with multidimensional guides and their insights since ancient times…
… and to navigate the chaos, uncertainty, social divides, and power-over dynamics of modern times.
Journeying can be a visceral experience that empowers the evolution of our souls and engages the senses in a unique way, according to acclaimed shamanic teacher Sandra Ingerman…
… who is one of the first in the West to guide others — for more than 40 years — on ceremonial shamanic journeying and its potent insights, lively spirits, and powerful medicine.
Making a tangible connection with helping spirits who can support us as we move through the stresses and demands of modern living can help us live more connected, conscientious, meaningful, and abundant lives.
Sandra is particularly gifted at holding sacred space for everyone as they seek healing and transformation — which allows us to better connect with and palpably experience the helping spirits who possess the guidance we need right now.
She’ll teach you how during this foundational course on shamanic journeying where you’ll experience firsthand what it looks, feels, and sounds like to explore other worlds and be in true physical presence with the divine beings who dwell there.
Building day-to-day relationships with helping spirits in unseen worlds is life-changing…
… and as Sandra’s former students say, it can arm you with solutions to your greatest personal and collective challenges that you can then share with your family, friends, colleagues, and community.
During this course on the foundations of shamanism, you’ll:
- Discover the sacred practice of shamanism that includes a ceremony called the shamanic journey
- Learn about the worlds that shamans travel to — and why they’re important
- Explore the tools shamans use to enter the unseen realms — and how to prepare for and interpret shamanic journeys
- Journey to the Lower, Upper, and Middle Worlds to meet with power animals, guardian spirits, teachers, nature beings, and elements — and receive healing
- Discover the different styles of journeying that can deepen the work
- Learn the best and most appropriate questions to ask helping spirits and nature beings in a journey
- Explore what journeying to the Upper World is like — and how it’s different than journeying to the Lower World
- Gain a deeper understanding on when to journey to the Lower World versus the Upper World
- Explore how to connect with nature beings who share this Earth with you
- Gain a deeper perspective on why it’s important to connect with the spirit of the land you live on
You’ll ignite your senses in the very earthy Lower World and connect with a power animal or a helping or guardian spirit…
You’ll journey to the Upper World where you may feel your ethereal presence as if you’re standing on clouds instead of solid ground to receive healing from a teacher…
You’ll connect with nature beings in the Middle World… learn the principles of performing long-distance shamanic healing work as you meet with the spirit of the land…
… and discover your true spiritual identity through the practice of transfiguration — the practice of healing with spiritual light.
Shamanic journeying has helped humanity survive and thrive for thousands of years… and it’s still a viable tool for navigating the uncertainties, questions, and challenges we individually and collectively face.
You’ll learn how to apply the shamanic wisdom and healing gleaned from journeying as a viable tool for your everyday needs.
Join us to embark on the sacred, time-honored healing tradition of shamanic journeying to meet compassionate and loving helping spirits who are eager to offer guidance and support, answer your questions, and provide healing.
What You’ll Discover in These 4 Modules
In this 4-part transformational intensive, Sandra will guide you through the fundamental skills and competencies you’ll need to journey to the Lower, Upper, and Middle Worlds to receive healing, encouragement, and higher guidance from helping spirits.
This course will feature step-by-step teachings and experiential practices with Sandra. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need for shamanic journeying to other worlds where you’ll connect with helping spirits and receive healing, encouragement, and higher guidance.
Module 1: Journey to the Lower World to Connect With Helping Spirits to Guide & Protect You
In this module, delve deep into the foundations of shamanism and shamanic journeying and learn why it is so relevant and healing to modern day living.
Sandra will share some of the methods used to enter non-ordinary realms and meet up with multiple helping spirits.
For many, the Lower World feels earthy and tangible — you can really feel yourself sticking your fingers in the earth. There are forests, deserts, beaches, and other things you would experience here on Earth.
There are also power animals who volunteer to guide us. Or, our helping spirit might take the form of a tree or a plant, in which case we would call it a guardian spirit.
You’ll be guided on your first shamanic journey to open to these experiences… and learn about the helping spirits who are guiding you and protecting you right now.
You’ll:
- Discover the sacred practice of shamanism that includes a ceremony called the shamanic journey
- Learn about the worlds that shamans travel to — and why they’re important
- Learn the tools shamans use to enter the unseen realms — and how to prepare for and interpret shamanic journeys
- Journey to the Lower World to meet with a power animal or guardian spirit
Module 2: Connect With a Teacher in the Upper World for Healing Requests
Explore the unseen realms of the Upper World, where there are a variety of helping spirits, including teachers in human form.
These teachers are like our power animals and nature being helping spirits.
In this module, you’ll explore the benefit of asking questions of both your guardian spirits and teachers to learn how they have different perspectives — on life and on Earth.
The Upper World feels a bit more celestial to many. The colors are more pastel in nature. And it doesn’t feel as tangible as the Lower World. Oftentimes you feel yourself standing on clouds versus standing on solid ground.
There are layers of pure light, and then you can come to a place known as the void, which is pure darkness — the rich and fertile territory that is the place right before creation.
Sandra will share the best kinds of questions and intentions to hold as you journey… and then guide you in a journey to receive healing from a teacher in the Upper World.
You’ll:
- Discover the different styles of journeying that can deepen the work
- Learn the best and most appropriate questions to ask helping spirits and nature beings in a journey
- Explore what journeying to the Upper World is like — and how it’s different than journeying to the Lower World
- Journey to a teacher in human form to ask a question or ask for healing
- Gain a deeper understanding on when to journey to the Lower World versus the Upper World
Module 3: Be Immersed in the Non-Ordinary Reality of the Middle World to Connect More Deeply With the Natural World
The Middle World is the non–ordinary reality of the world we live in here on Earth. This is a place where shamans do long distance work and also have the opportunity to speak to nature beings.
Sandra will share why performing long-distance work, talking to nature spirits and the elements, and meeting with the spirit of the land and Earth is deep and meaningful work for all of us to do.
You’ll also gain an enriched perspective on why we thrive when we deepen our connections with nature and find deep joy in being able to communicate to nature beings as if they’re our most trusted friends.
You’ll also be guided on how to connect with nature beings and begin to establish a loving relationship of mutual respect…
… and explore how the land you live on can support you in ways you haven’t imagined once you learn how to connect with the land as your home.
You’ll:
- Learn what the Middle World is like — and how shamans used the Middle World to do remote work.
- Explore how to connect with nature beings who share this Earth with you
- Journey to the Middle World to meet up with some of your favorite nature beings and elements
- Reverently approach nature by asking permission to connect — and gain new insights on how to deepen your relationship and connection with nature
- Gain a deeper perspective on why it’s important to connect with the spirit of the land you live on
Module 4: Heal Yourself and Others With Spiritual Light Through Transfiguration
One of the most ancient practices in shamanism and other spiritual traditions is healing with spiritual light. Sandra was told in a dream that this process is called “transfiguration.”
Transfiguration brings you to a different evolution of your work. Working with helping spirits, you can feel your egoic self reaching to the Divine for answers, guidance, and healing.
The process of transfiguration opens the reality that you have the same spiritual power as the helping spirits…
… and that your true spiritual identity is the same light of the Creator and the Divine — as you radiate this light, you effortlessly create healing for others, all of life, and the planet.
Sandra will share how to bring transfiguration into your everyday life to be in true service to the planet.
You’ll discover:
- How shamans heal with light
- The difference between working with the spirits as a human with an ego and how shamans drop their humanness to let go of their body and mind — and experience their true spiritual identity, which is light
- How you can push out darkness and fill yourself with your own light, which brings you to a much higher state of consciousness than reacting to life with ego and feelings of separateness
- Why permission is needed to journey for someone else
- How in with healing with light you don’t need permission from others to see them in their divine light and perfection
