SHAMANISM IS :
RECONNECTING TO SPIRIT.
SHAMANIC PATHWAYS JOURNEYING TO THE PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE.
RESONANT HEALING AND RELEASE.
FINDING YOUR POWER ANIMAL AND ALLY .
SOUL RETRIEVAL.
THE SHAMANIC PATH OF LIVING AND DYING WITH INTENTION.
THERE ARE ONLY TWO QUESTIONS WE NEED TO ASK OURSELVES---
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF MY LIFE? AM I READY TO DIE?
[ LEAVING NO UNFINISHED BUSINESS OR REGRETS ]




Valerie Smith studied classical Peruvian Shamanism with Alberto Villoldo and the Four Winds Society in America and Peru. The intention and focus of the training was healing.
She offers personal sessions and introductory classes in
the Shamanic Tradition.
A session with Valerie offers a safe sacred place to explore deep issues.
Using breath and sound-toning and drumming- calling in the ancient ones, guides , teachers and ancestors . Opening the psyche to the mystery of life beyond time and space. A personal act of power and commitment to go beyond conditioning and fear.


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
THE SHAMAN knows this is a time for powerful change and healing. The doorway between the worlds is again open. It is a time of transition. Moving from the known to the unknown both collectively and personally.

We can choose to leave past fears behind and explode into a new consciousness. Western healing attem ÿpts to fix things that have gone wrong. Shamanic healing rewrites the script and heals things in the luminous body or aura , before they manifest in form.

The so called (civilised societies) live mainly in the mind. The shamanic path takes us back to nature, to Mother Earth. We ground and centre and Trust. Opening our hearts to the great mystery that we are part of. We call in the winds to dance with us. The power animals to teach us. We become one with the rocks, the great waters. We breathe with the trees and sing with the rain. We become the rainbow bridge between earth and sky that is our birthright.

WHAT IS HEALING?
In it's purest form it is letting go. Letting go of past fears and pains. Old sorrow, anguish and misunderstandings. Mistake's, guilt, judgement - anything
that causes separation from Love and Truth. Healing has different levels - the grossest being the body. Then there is the mind, the emotions and the final level is that of Spirit. In the healed Spirit - I am surrendered and part of Spirit. God or Love.

AND TRUST?
Trust is available always. It is a matter of choice. I can choose trust at any moment. At any time when faced with a choice I can choose trust. At first it is a very weak muscle - it hasn't been given much exercise. Trust seems unavailable - just a word, an idea, something intangible. Then one day I am facing some decision, and the word trust comes in the mind and I decide to try it. To engage that elusive something. Yes, I say, I will trust this and see what happens. Trust asks me to change. To believe in something based on nothing more than faith in myself. Whatever has been proved by my experiences in the past can be dissolved by the simple action of choosing trust. It is a simple thought - but it has a huge energetic foundation. As I explore this new path, flexing this unused muscle- slowly slowly the path ahead becomes clearer. Not easier - because I will find myself being tested daily - hourly sometimes as my old belief systems , doubts and dramas come into real time to challenge me to trust and trust again, Trust can seem to betray me when the out come is something that I think I did not want or ask for. Trust will take me into my darkest night - because it is there that I will meet the part of myself that I have abandoned or denied.
So trust is not regained quickly. It will demand much of me and finally it will leave me standing on the threshold of everything I never knew I had. It will give me myself - not the personality, the assumed identity painted by conditioning. The training of a dying social structure - of family, school and religion. I will stand naked and unashamed of myself - part of the beauty and wonder of being alive in this moment. Part of the human family that I trust and also trusts me.
