Have you "dabbled" in Shamanism?

“I’ve felt connected to Shamanism since I was a child, but I don’t have any formal training and I want to learn more.”

“I have a little bit of training in Shamanism but it’s mostly dabbling. I feel like I’m missing some important pieces and I want a cohesive organization and understanding of Shamanic practice so I can make better use of my tools and feel more confident.”

“I feel called to Earth-based spiritual practice but I want to be very conscientious of how I approach Shamanic study.”

These are just a few of the common themes I hear from people who want to study Shamanism and develop their Earth-based spiritual practice.

Do any of these sound like you?

Let’s talk about dabbling in Shamanism for a minute. (I get it, I’ve been there.)

The proliferation of Shamanic books, podcasts, workshops, ceremonies and spiritual-flavored events is both a wonderful blessing and a very sneaky challenge. Thanks to this ubiquity of information, it is so easy to explore and enjoy Shamanic experiences. The sneaky challenge is that reading books, attending ceremonies and taking workshops can create the illusion of cohesive training, when more often it is actually haphazard and leaves gaping holes that you don’t even know are there.

I dabbled in Shamanism for my first 6 years of study (2003-2009). This was partly because I was in high school and university at the time, but also because in the early 2000s, it was much more difficult to find a Shamanic teacher. (Now you can just Google “Shaman near me.”)

I did the best I could with what I had — I attended workshops here and there, I read a few books and I practiced the tools that I learned.

But it wasn’t until I met my Shaman mentor in 2009 and began consistently working with her that I began to see the gaping holes in my practice and my skills.

When I received consistent support from a mentor who could guide the trajectory of my growth (and the deep healing that came with it), my skills, confidence and ability deepened exponentially.

This is the kind of support I offer to people now, both in the form of 1:1 mentorship and Shamanic training.
