ONE YEAR ADVANCED SHAMANIC TRAINING

During the course of one year, participants will be guided on a safe and thorough journey into the fascinating and empowering world of authentic shamanism.

Traditionally the main focus of the shaman is the art of healing, and this one year training reflects that. The shaman heals, not through his or her own power, but by becoming a channel for higher forces and healing powers that flow through them to the client. Native American's call this state, "the hollow bone", and in the Far East it's called becoming "the hollow bamboo". It requires that you surrender and let go of your ego so that you become an empty vessel that spirit can work through.

Embarking on this training will lead participants into a powerfully transformative personal healing journey, enabling them to become that clear, clean vessel for spirit. To become the hollow bone we need first to heal our heart and mind, and this training leads us there. We will be healing with the old earth based spiritual ways in order to bring back balance and harmony to our lives. Simultaneously the training provides a sound, safe, grounded and comprehensive understanding of the basic healing skills and knowledge you will need to practice shamanic healing professionally, if that is what you, and spirit, decide to do.

We will work as a tribe, the way the old people did, and feel the safety, holding and reflections of this healing dynamic. At the same time each individual will be guided according to their individual needs and encouraged to achieve their fullest potential within the circle.

During the six workshops you will learn the ancient arts of: soul retrieval; extraction; how to heal fear, both personal and global; spiritual blessings; cleansing and purification of houses; healing with plants and tree spirits; shamanic dreaming; the cycles of life and death, and how to work with people who are dying; psychopomp work; ancestral contact and the breaking of curses; divination; and working with nature spirits.

The training is for beginners as well as people who already work with shamanism and want to go deeper. Participants will set out on a journey of transformation, profound learning, consciousness training and awakening. Because of the intensity and transformative nature of the training deeper teachings that are not usually given in workshops will be brought forward.

Your teacher, Chris Luttichau, has a unique background as a teacher of shamanism. Having studied with native shamans for 20 years he is the carrier of an authentic and comprehensive body of shamanic teachings about healing as well as many other topics.
