When we were pre-verbal we picked up so many cues around us that told us what we needed to do to be loved and cared for. Typically, these behaviors came from false information that had nothing to do with you. But you felt judged. And by feeling judged you might have started creating patterns that made you feel safe...

Or if it makes more sense to you to see life on Earth as being dismantled. Some of this is due to our behavior and lack of awareness of how the ways we live are impacting life. Some of this is pure evolution and the Earth changing herself like we do when we feel we have outgrown a phase of life, and it is time to resculpt our landscap...

The topic of initiation is one of great passion for both Renee and Sandra. For shamanic initiations are how they both got into the spiritual work that they abundantly share in a modern-day culture.

In shamanism initiations are for shedding our ego and stepping into a new level of consciousness. Join Renee Baribeau, The Practical Shaman and Sandra I...

Join Renee Baribeau, The Practical Shaman and Sandra Ingerman as they revisit how the path of shamanism has changed over the years. There was a time in workshops we experimented with the magic of working with shamanism and seeing how far we could push the limits of our work.

What shamanic practices people need to learn about these days is...

Shamanism is a practice of direct revelation. This means we all have access to helping spirits. The helping spirits all have different messages and ways of healing. When we come together in a shamanic circle whether online or in person practitioners are bringing through the information from spirits that don’t live in our dimension. They have so much to share, and their perspectives are enlightening. It does not matter the practitioner’s age the presence and voices of the spirits can come through...

What we give energy we give life to. This is a well known shamanic teaching. But do we take time to reflect on the thoughts and energy coming from our mind that we are giving life to? How do we work consciously with our thoughts without going into a spiritual bypass? How do we be honest with ourselves and how we are truly feeling, but learn to create the right kind of energy with our thoughts that unbind us from our stuck places, allow us to breathe more fully, and be in gratitude for life inste...

Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau were asked to talk about this important and most complex topic of what is shaman illness. And this is a big topic. For shaman illness can be happening to one who is called by the spirits to be a shaman. And illness comes into their life until they say yes to the call. And then there is the preparation every shamanic practitioner needs to do to make sure they are not taking on others’ illnesses. And this part of shamanic practice requires a lot of discipline, co...

In the modern world we tend to be gazers and onlookers of life. We like to go to beautiful places have wonderful experiences. But there is a difference between being an observer while we live our lives versus absorbing in the frequencies of the beauty we witness. For example consider the difference between looking at the sun versus absorbing its healing rays into your body. Or seeing how beautiful a tree is without absorbing the fragrance of its healing terpenes. May of us were taught it is bett...

In the practice of shamanism it is understood that when we die we transcend back home to Source. But there are often situations where this transition needs some assistance. We humans live in what shamans call the Middle World which is Earth School and a place of learning. When we die the Middle world is no longer our home. It is understood and seen through journey work that some souls who suffered a traumatic death might get stuck in the Middle World and need assistance in crossing over. When th...

Or what Renee would say what footprint are we leaving on the Earth. Renee Baribeau and Sandra’s combined conversation created true alchemy as they talk about the different permutations o...
