Tuesday, September 25, 2018
Open your heart, expand your mind, deepen your service, and advance on your spiritual journey — within a beautifully supportive community committed to planetary healing.
Expand your use of shamanic practices to access hidden dimensions, spirit allies, and healing wisdom for your family, community, and society...
And join a special Shamanic Journeying grad-only community!
Do you wish you could alleviate suffering among people facing agonizing challenges in your family, community... and on our planet?
Are you heartbroken over the social and environmental injustices happening around the world — and in our own backyard?
If so, you now have the opportunity to apply advanced principles and practices of shamanic journeying to bring in healing light and compassionate wisdom to families, communities, and even countries.
In Shamanic Journeying for Guidance & Part 2 Enhanced, you’ll enter into a powerful field of practice in which you’ll discover how to bless, heal, and transform collective emotions and energies.
You’ll work on the subtle levels of consciousness in ways that free up stuck patterns — applying divination, prayer, soul retrieval, and journeying practices. You’ll also participate in shamanic healing ceremonies, spinning threads of intention, peace, love, equality, light, and harmony... to weave a new, healthier reality for yourself, your family, your community, and the world.
And, you’ll journey into the far future and deep past, as well as commune with advanced beings who have healing wisdom and guidance to share with you and other shamanic practitioners... to give you practical skills for navigating the “multiverse” and opening new portals in your consciousness and the world.
You’ll build on basic skills of shamanic journeying — working with spirit guides to support social healing. You’ll journey to bridge divides and heal ancient wounds.
Rather than just being saddened by recent news, you’ll apply shamanic skills, radiating light and helping ease the pain of the families, communities, and areas impacted by disaster, environmental toxicity, or war.
During Shamanic Journeying for Guidance & Healing Part 2 Enhanced, you’ll explore:
Performing divination work for another and how to interpret metaphors you are shown The ethics of performing remote shamanic work for others Retrieving a lost power animal to deal with power loss which can lead to depression, immune deficiency, and chronic bad luck How to work with children and animals Soul Remembering Retrieving the soul of land, cities, businesses, and so on Healing with Spiritual Light Journeying to learn from the future and from the multiverse Deepening your dreaming work Navigating death and dying with greater clarity and helping others transition with grace Retrieving wisdom from ancient ancestral traditions as well as from descendants in the future Merging with a helping spirit Bridging shamanic ceremonies into your communityWhat You’ll Discover in This Special Program
Live sessions with Sandra are on Tuesdays at 5:00pm Pacific.
Pre-recorded teaching modules will be released on Tuesdays on the dates specified below.
In this course, Sandra will guide you through the core skills and competencies to expand your shamanic skills and apply them to your service in the world.
Each teaching, ritual, and training session will build harmoniously upon the next so that you’ll develop a complete, holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles needed to access the power of shamanic journeying to make a positive difference playing a larger healing role for the planet.
The course will include five LIVE teaching sessions with Sandra, including lecture, journey, ceremony, and time to share experiences or ask questions. Between these live classes, 11 pre-recorded teaching modules will be released on a weekly basis.
LIVE Session #1 With Sandra Ingerman (September 25)
In this first live session, Sandra will open the course with an introduction which will be a bridge into the modules you’ll be receiving throughout the course. She’ll complete this first session with a ceremony to prepare for the work to come in the course.
Module 1: Key Principles in Using Shamanic Practices to Help Others (Available October 2)
In this session, you’ll learn how to perform divination for others and how to interpret the metaphors you are shown. It is so crucial to learn how to tell healing stories that plant seeds of inspiration, hope, and love in those you journey for. The ethics of working on behalf of others will also be addressed and will include the teaching that you must get informed consent from people you work with. Also, we must explain to clients that shamanism does not take the place of traditional medicine and psychotherapy. Additionally, we will examine our beliefs around our creative potential to create positive change for ourselves and the planet.
In this module, you’ll:
- Be shown how to perform a divination journey for others, whether it’s for a friend, a loved one, clients, animals, or for a business
- Develop skill in telling inspirational healing stories
- Address the ethical issues involved in performing shamanic divination and healing for others
- Find out how to get informed consent from your clients
- Learn how to access permission from people who are unconscious, children too young to speak, or an animal
- Understand the power of words
- Create a garden in your inner world that you can inspect from time to time — this will be a garden of the plants growing from the seeds we tell ourselves and others
- Perform a virtual ceremony to rededicate ourselves to our virtual altar and our altar at home
- Examine any beliefs we need to let go of that prevent us from believing we have the ability to work on behalf of others
LIVE Session #2 With Sandra Ingerman (October 9)
Module 2: Performing a Divination Journey (Available October 16)
In this session, participants will have the opportunity to journey on a question given to them from a friend or loved one who is willing to have a journey performed on their behalf. Sandra will talk about how people often experience performance anxiety before doing shamanic work for others. She will teach you how to prepare for your journeywork so that you are a true “hollow bone” and vessel of wisdom for the power of the universe. Sandra will also talk about observing the results of your work over time.
In this module, you’ll:
- Establish the importance of doing preparation work before you do any shamanic work for another
- Journey on behalf of another
- Discover the exciting synchronicities that emerge when you work on behalf of another
- Talk about the results of your work
- Learn how to integrate shamanic divination work into your life and work
- Perform a virtual ceremony to release feelings of betrayal, guilt, and disappointment
Module 3: How to Retrieve Lost Power (Available October 23)
In this session, Sandra will review how shamans work with both emotional and physical illness. Shamans work with the spiritual aspect of illness, and one cause of illness is power loss. You will learn how to retrieve lost power for others — friends, loved ones, clients, animals, relationships, family, and businesses. Sandra will teach you how to perform this work at a distance — and explore the ethics of needing permission from others before doing this work. Sandra will also talk about working with children.
In this module, you’ll:
- Understand how shamans view emotional and spiritual illness
- Perform a ceremony to retrieve lost power for someone you know outside of the circle
- Be shown how to retrieve a power animal/guardian for a relationship, a family, or business
- Be instructed in how to perform a power animal retrieval when you work on someone in your home or office, as well as ways to work long distance
- Study the ethics of performing long-distance work and how to access permission to do this work
- Expand your understanding of how helping spirits can provide you with a unique way of working so that you are fully inspired to be creative instead of just following one method or technique
- Share your experience with the group
- Perform a virtual healing ceremony for the group
Module 4: Soul Remembering (Available October 23)
In this session, Sandra will teach you about the importance of identifying your soul’s purpose. The nature of human beings is to project onto each other, and oftentimes our parents, authority figures, and loved ones do not see us for who we truly are. But we all came here to manifest a gift, talent, and strength. Although we are one with the Divine, we all came here to manifest an aspect of the Divine and to have a unique life adventure. We will journey for someone you know who has given you permission to ask a helping spirit on their behalf to help identify their soul’s purpose. Participants can also journey for themselves on this intention if they do not want to journey for another.
In this module, you’ll:
- Explore how to life filled with meaning and passion, which is essential to maintaining your emotional and physical health
- Understand how your soul’s purpose is oftentimes covered up by people’s and society’s projections on you
- Learn to identify one’s soul purpose
- Perform a group virtual ceremony to honor the beauty of each others’ souls and call in an element (earth, air, water, fire) which reflects back the quality of your soul’s purpose that can assist you in sharing your gift in the world
Module 5: Retrieving the Soul of the Land (Available October 30)
In this session, Sandra will share about the power of performing a ceremony to retrieve the soul of land, a house, a building, a business, or a city. First, we will look at how we can work spiritually to diagnose if soul loss has occurred.
Performing this type of ceremony by joining together in community can be especially healing during times of unrest. Sandra cannot actually teach how to perform a soul retrieval for people in this format. But the work to return the soul of where we live and work to reflect back our own soulfulness is important to our health.
In this module, you’ll:
- Learn about the power of performing a soul retrieval for land, your home, your place of work, a business, or a city
- Understand how to diagnose if soul loss is creating issues in the places where you live and work
- Journey to supporting ancestral spirits or descendants to learn about ceremonies to retrieve the soul of a place
- Understand how to invite members in your community or workplace to participate in a soul retrieval ceremony
- Perform a group virtual ceremony to work on a place that is in need of a soul retrieval
Module 6: Journey Into the Future & Into the Multiverse (Available October 30)
In shamanic work we can travel to the past or into the future as we travel outside of time. We also have the opportunity to explore multiple dimensions and parallel realities. In this session, Sandra will share how journeying into the future and into multiple dimensions can provide important insights that help us make choices and decisions that ultimately benefit our life path. We will also continue to journey to deepen our connection with nature.
In this module, you’ll:
- Explore how you can use shamanic journeys to journey into the future
- Discover “multiple reality” theory and how through shamanism you can explore different dimensions in order to receive insights on improving the quality of your life
- Deepen your connection with nature and learn about the power of leaving offerings on the land
- Share with Sandra and the group your reflections on how you’re doing with the work presented in this course so far
LIVE Session #3 With Sandra Ingerman
Healing With Spiritual Light (November 6)
In this session, you’ll go deeper with some of the concepts introduced in Shamanic Journeying for Guidance & Healing Part One. Sandra will share how she used the shamanic practice of working with spiritual light to heal places impacted by environmental challenges and reverse environmental toxicity. She’ll share details with you about the scientific research she’s conducted in this area of her work. We will explore through shamanic journeywork how to use spiritual light to heal others, substances, and places impacted by pollution. Sandra will also share some of her findings on working long distance using this practice. We will perform a long-distance healing on substances and use a Gas Discharge Visualization (GDV) camera to measure our results.
In this session, you’ll:
- Understand how shamans work with spiritual light for healing
- Discover that it’s who we become that changes the world — and enables us to heal by being a presence of light
- Journey to learn about how light transforms and heals
- Find out how you can join together with others in your community to work on areas in need of healing
- Explore how to use the method of healing with spiritual light with clients, friends, loved ones, in your community, and in the world community at large
- Be inspired to be a vessel of love
- Perform a long-distance ceremony, with the results will be checked by a GDV camera
Module 7: Deepening Your Dreaming Work (Available November 13)
In this session, you’ll perform a shamanic journey to merge with the moon to learn about the power of projection and attraction. You’ll perform a journey to meet with the Master/Mistress of Abundance to ask to identify what is blocking you from abundance and being successful with your dreaming work. You’ll also journey to have a power animal, guardian spirit, or teacher free you from a blocking belief, attitude, or disappointment.
In this module, you’ll:
- Deepen your practice of how to dream into being the life you wish to live
- Explore how to work with a craft to focus your energies and dreaming work — crocheting, knitting, carving, sculpting, drawing, painting, cooking, gardening, and so on
- Understand how the moon can be a teacher for you in how to shift your internal energy to attract what you desire
- Receive information from the Master/Mistress of Abundance about what is blocking you from bringing abundance of health, wellbeing, and positive circumstances into your life
- Understanding how your helping spirits can free you from your blocking beliefs, attitudes, and disappointments
- Perform a group virtual ceremony to bring down the power of the moon to share her energies with all in our circle
Module 8: Retrieving Wisdom From the Ancient & Future Ones (Available November 13)
Through shamanic journeying we can journey to visit wise ones who lived in ancient civilizations — and also journey forward in time to visit descendants who can share with us healing methods that can be bridged into our time. Visiting ancient traditions such as the Anasazi, the ancient Egyptians, or the builders of the Mayan pyramids can provide valuable information for us. Ancestors as well as descendants might share more advanced ways that we can care for our environment. Descendants might share how they work with sound and light for healing as well as how to perform group healings on the collective. The descendants in the future are so generous with their teachings because they depend on us to leave them a good earth to live on.
In this module, you’ll:
- Perform a journey to an ancient civilization that you personally would like to learn from
- Undertake a journey to future descendants to learn about healing methods in the future — and to bring back a healing method you can integrate into your own work with others
- Perform a virtual ceremony to an advanced culture to perform a collective healing on our group
- Share with others in our circle the wealth of information that we have learned
Module 9: Working With Death (Available November 20)
In shamanic cultures, it is understood that death is not an end but a transition. Of course, people in Indigenous cultures mourn the death of loved ones and community members, but death is not seen as something to fear. Sandra will share how we can use shamanic practices to help those who are facing death to provide comfort and peace at the end of life.
In this module, you’ll:
- Perform a journey to learn about the territories in the transcendent realms that people travel to at the time of death
- Discover how to speak to people who are facing death, sharing spiritual principles that will provide them with peace and comfort
- Advance your understanding of the role of the shaman as a psychopomp to heal people who have died but got stuck in the Middle World
- Journey to find out how to lead a ceremony to help those who are grieving the death of a loved one
- Perform a virtual ceremony together as a community to provide help to a group of people or an area where there was a mass death
Module 10: Merging With a Helping Spirit (Available November 27)
In this session, Sandra will talk about the importance of joining together as a global community to hold space in the world right now and how to merge with a helping spirit to see the world through the eyes of spirit versus through the eyes of ego. We’ll explore how merging with a helping compassionate spirit is a form of mediumship. Sandra will demonstrate the work by merging with her spiritual teacher Isis, who will give a message and answer questions for the group.
In this module, you’ll:
- Find out how to hold a loving space filled with light during this intense time of change, transition, and evolution on the planet
- Journey to merge with a helping spirit to learn how to shift your perspective of how you see the world
- Receive messages from Isis and have the opportunity to ask questions of this helping spirit as Sandra acts as a medium for her
LIVE Session #4 With Sandra Ingerman (December 4)
Module 11: Bridging Shamanic Work Into Your Local Community (Available December 11)
Throughout this course, we’ve learned how to perform shamanic healing work for others and in our community. In this session, Sandra will summarize and give us practical ways to continue our work on behalf of friends, loved ones, clients, our workplace, and our community. She will share with you how you can use terminology to bridge what you learned into a general population. Sandra will also encourage you to create a prayer, wishing, or blessing tree in your community as a way to gather people together to hold a positive vision — as well as how to bring children into the work. We will perform a journey to a power animal or teacher to ask for a plan to integrate the practices we’ve learned into our daily lives.
In this module, you’ll:
- Discover how to use terminology and speak about shamanic practices in a way that can help you to teach powerful spiritual practices in your community

Celtic Shamanism: An Awakening Landscape
Audio Dialogue With Sandra Ingerman and Jane Burns
There is such a strong connection to the land, expressed so beautifully in Celtic shamanism. Jane Burns will speak with Sandra about Celtic shamanism and how this ancient practice is so connected to nature. Jane believes Celtic shamanism will awaken and become a more vibrant practice through and out of the spirit of the land.
Jane Burns is a practitioner and teacher of Celtic and core shamanic studies, who lives in Southbury, Connecticut. Her shamanic novel and handbook, Up A Tree, was published in 2014, and she’s at work on another novel that is inspired by Celtic mythology. She remains an avid student and teacher of Celtic spirituality and tradition.
Shamanism in Ordinary Landscapes
Audio Dialogue With Sandra Ingerman and Cecile Carson
Cecile Carson will speak with Sandra about her research of how people today are bridging shamanism into the work they do. For example some of the people Cecile has written about and highlighted are a high school cook, a mall Santa Claus, a theater director, and a neurobiology grad student working in an animal lab. They’ll talk about how shamanism can emerge in everyday circumstances.
Cecile Carson, MD, has been doing a series of interviews for a forthcoming book that looks at shamanic practitioners who integrate shamanism into Western culture in interesting and unusual ways — ways that open our hearts and minds to what’s possible for spirits’ healing in our troubled world. She’s an internist also trained in psychiatry, who for 30 years focused much of her work on helping people deal with life-threatening illness such as HIV and cancer. Recognizing that illness often requires soul-level work, she expanded her focus to spiritual coaching and healing. She’s been practicing and teaching shamanism for the past 25 years, both nationally and internationally. She’s also a founding board member of the Society of Shamanic Practice and editor of the anthology Spirited Medicine: Shamanism in Contemporary Healthcare.
The Magic of the Wind
Video Dialogue With Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau
In Renee’s remarkable book, Winds of Spirit, she shares poetic stories about ancient shamanic practices of working with wind as a guiding force and how as an ally it can give us messages that inform our lives. Wind is a strong ally for Sandra as well. Together Renee and Sandra will share stories about the healing and power that can come about by working with wind.
Renee Baribeau is a Hay House author, Wind Whistler, inspirational mentor, respected business coach, dynamic spiritual teacher, and keynote speaker. Renee, the Practical Shaman, is well known for her no-nonsense, “tell it like it is” approach in helping others to achieve successful lifestyle practices by aligning to their sacred Magnetic North. In 2013, the Winds began to speak to Renee, insisting she turn her attention to their ancient wisdom teaching, resulting in a book which quickly became an Amazon bestseller, Winds of Spirit: Ancient Wisdom Tools for Navigating Relationships, Health, and the Divine which explores the rich mythology and cultural significance of Wind and reveals a powerful system to utilize these subtle, life-healing energies.
