School of Shamanism
Welcome to School of Shamanism, where ancient wisdom meets everyday life. This is your space to explore shamanic practices, healing, and spiritual transformation in real, practical ways.
SEASON 1: Walking Between Worlds
We're kicking things off with conversations that matter. Each episode, I sit down with healers, teachers, and practitioners who live at the crossroads between ancient and modern, spirit and matter, visible and invisible worlds.
SEASON 2: Many Paths, One Mountain
Different traditions, same destination. This season I'm exploring how yoga, somatic work, breathwork, energy healing, sound, creativity and more all lead to the same place: healing.
