In a place of marker points, of form and structure, of shapes and straight lines... there is another rhythm, a pulse, a breath, a flow and a dance.
I welcome you to approach healing work through this rhythm.
Many times in healing we are inviting a whole other perspective to the binding constructs. While an illness or challenge carries bindings, walls and barriers... we can introduce a breath that exists both within those constructs and also beyond the barriers.
This rhythm of life, of nature, of breath, and of ocean opens up realms of existence and expands the consciousness.
When we observe healing through the lens of natural rhythms, we can see where, when and how to assist in the transformation processes. Shamanic healing is ultimately an act of universal compassion through the channels of the hollow bone with the guidance of the helping spirits connecting us to the Wholeness itself.
Hello Dear Shaman College Community,
We have a unique relationship with divination within shamanism. The tools and abilities we have honed allow us to both receive information through the cognitive channels and to get 'hands-on' guidance on how to embody and breathe this information into our day to day lives.
Shamanism is a bridge, not just for messages and information but also for change, metamorphosis, growth, and healing.
Some people can get into a pattern of divining and divining - always getting more information and filling up the mental realm with thoughts. And yet for many people, this practice doesn't necessarily result in embodied shifts.
In our courses, we push you to explore the ordinary reality shifts that are available to you through these non-ordinary communications. Remember, shamanism helps you receive information AND it allows to dive into the transformations.
One suggestion you can begin with right away, is to work as much as you can with your...
Hello Dear Shaman College Community,
This video sharing carries many messages and pieces from the last full moon psychopomp for the Earth. It also continues the guidance and real time example and application of the power in Calling the Directions, and points to the importance of a deep embodiment of our practices.
(Click Here for the last Calling Directions Guidance Video.)
These are shifting times on the Earth... these are times when so many people are experiencing a lift in consciousness and awakening.
No one said it would be easy, and if shamanic healing has taught us anything, it is that sometimes we have to go through cleansing, extractions, clearing binds, unwinding, compassionate wound healing, and really feeling and being present with what is here.
The beauty is that we have guidance, we have spirit helpers and teachers, angels and friends. We just have to get quiet enough and clear enough to perceive this.
As always, please reach out to us if you need...
As I have had a number of messages lately regarding "Calling the Directions"... I felt it was time to share some insights and guidance for this beautiful and widely shared practice.
This practice is very effective at opening the channels of infinite connections. One of the dearest connections that comes forth is the link between you as an individual light, and the YOU as one with the whole of Creation.
In this video, I also open up the importance of looking at shamanic healing as a healing for the whole web itself. We are all connected, each one's transformation impacting all of us.
I am sending out my encouragement to you so that you may find your authentic calling in all directions... and I am sending out my blessings that you may discover the assistance that is all around you.
with gratitude,
Kimba
Hello dear Shaman College Community,
When students and practitioners send their questions and insights to me, I am often inspired to share these pieces to our larger community. Through each session I do with a client and in each mentoring meeting that happens... the spirits and teachers are endlessly offering assistance and guidance.
In this recent exchange, I was asked to share my own practice with self-cleansing and preparations for healing sessions. What a great request!
As with everything within shamanic healing... each situation is unique and requires a unique methodology. Nothing is exactly the same. There is no "one way". And yet, there is a thread of consistency. There is an undercurrent that allows both safety and effectiveness.
How can a shaman serve if they are not healthy enough to serve? And why even do this form of work, if it is not effective?
As it turns out... the practices that allow us and our clients to be healthy and safe also allow...
In January, I sent out a blog and video, "Call to Psychopomps". And thankfully some of our advanced practitioners responded! We have a small but powerful group doing this work and adding to the collective of healing for Mother Earth and all life here.
I feel that some of you may like to receive updates about how these healing offerings are going. So I have recorded an update for you. I will continue to update you as we move forward into the Spring.
As well as sharing my latest experience, I encourage everyone to keep up their personal and regular practices of nourishing the light within.
This light and love within you is so powerful! And it flows out from you into your life and into the whole world.
One of the things I point out in this video... if you are finding yourself pulled into the emotions of fear or hate, please seek assistance from someone. There are many skilled and beautiful practitioners in this world that you can work with. These are...
In this blog video, I am sharing pieces that have been coming through to me personally over this last year... my guides have been turning up the heat and the call is to be carried out to you.
The message is that psychopomps are needed right now.
I know that not all of us here are psychopomps. It is a specialty within shamanism and one that not all practitioners work with. As with many of the shamanic skills, one has to be in a way, drawn and invited to do this work.
Saying this, all of us can continue to turn up the light that we are on a regular basis. No light that you emit is too small! In other words, you are contributing to the energetics on this Earth and in this Universe.
Here are two other videos that we have released recently that speak to this light:
Earth Prayers - In Your Light Body
Many people come through Shaman College and share that firstly, their connection to spirits and nature reach all the way back to childhood and secondly, that somewhere along the way, they were asked to conform, ignore and forget their innate sensitivities.
You may find that this resonates with your history. That somewhere along the line of your life, you were encouraged to contain your light. Perhaps you were also uprooted from your groundedness of being? It turns out that your groundedness and your light are closely related.
We are brilliant, we have life-force within us. And we have potentials and capacity within us for a beautiful world. Humans have more power than we have been taught. I believe it is time that we all contribute to the recovery of this light, we need this, the Earth needs this, and all life needs this.
In this blog video, I invite you to look at your light. How do you connect with the higher frequencies that are running...
This is inspired by both personal and professional work that I have done with the "light body" and also shares some insight into the topic that we cover in our new course, Shamanic Pathways for Yoga at Shaman College.
This is such a beautiful and powerful yet simple practice, that shifts your reference point from a physical, solid form to an energetic body of light.
What happens for you when you walk your light body? What does it feel like? What does the world look like from there? Who do you meet along your path? What messages come? What visions and visitations arise?
So often we trudge along in the illusion of being stuck in a form... yet our form is a reflection of our reference body of light.
Experiment with a playful invitation to your light body as you move through this world.
The treatment mindset that exists widely in our cultures today involves fixing, solving and curing. And in this approach has often forgotten the life-force itself. As if the power and strength in healing is determined by the 'great' minds to solve.
In shamanism we invite life in all of its cycles to reveal itself. We invite assistance and spiritual guidance to come and help with the surfacing of this power and potential that exists in life at its very essence.
As contemporary shamans and practitioners, we must be aware of the paradigms of our 'treatment' world. We must remember the power in the posture of invitation. Many times clients will come to you wanting treatment, wanting to be healed and fixed. And you may be able to help them... yet, not in the way that ignores the power in their own life force.
Let us remember to "Invite Life".
