PostHeaderIcon Native teachings and Shamanism – Ask an Elder

Jo-Anne asked,

I’ve been interested in Native teachings and Shamanism for sometime. I’m wondering if you know someone that I might apprentice with? My son is also interested in finding a teacher.

Thanks

Seeking authentic coastal native shamanistic information is like tryingto catch a hand full of smoke.  I have had the good fortune to meet and be trained  by one person whom I  believe is a shaman, properly trained by his grandmother, who had little contact and influence from other cultures. His ability in using the cosmic evergy of the universe is absolutley amazing, and beyond my comprehension, because he learned the in the old way, as a child from his granny, with no written word. These  secrets are closely guarded and passed on by word  of mouth, so are doomed to be lost forever. My limited knowledge comes from researching, discarding and tuning in to the ancestors and ancients in the spirit realm. Any of this information I am happy to share. I too, am a student on a learning quest. My mission is to strive to heal the body, mind and soul, of the 2 legged, 4 legged, the winged ones, the swimmers and this wobbly little planet that we share, I do what I can, with love as a motivator.
