Shamanism
Shamanism is an ancient healing tradition and moreover, a way of life. It is a way to connect with nature and all of creation. The word shaman originates from the Tungus tribe in Siberia. Anthropologists coined this term and have used it to refer to the spiritual and ceremonial leaders among indigenous cultures worldwide.

Lessons from Our Teacher
The Way of the Shaman
Shaman Jean is an initiated Kuraq Akulleq (4th Level Priest & Wisdom Keeper) in the Incan Tradition, a Pipe Carrier, Flowing Hands Energy Therapy Practitioner, Minister & Reiki Master.
"... she was ready to be gifted with the Kuraq Aqulleq initiation, she knew she was totally stepping into the Shamanic Path and there was no turning back. At that time, she informed Spirit and all of her lineage that she was ready to become the hollow bone that could be used to help others."
Jean believes that all of her teachers helped her in this walk and would not have done it any differently. She continues to always pay gratitude and honor to those that taught her.
As we honor our teacher, and ancestors.
Jean has always known that she is not the one doing the work, but there are those who are working through her. She gives all the glory and honor to Spirit, her helpers, her power animals and the lineage that come in to guide her, and work through her.

"She is known as someone who walks her talk. As she once told her father when he questioned what kind of religion she was now in: “This isn’t a religion papa – this is a way of life – the path I have chosen to follow and stay on.”


The Intersection of culture, the past and new learning;
connection between Incarnate and Spirit
Each one of us has an Indigenous Culture. The ingenious roots of all cultures lies in the ancestral lessons from nature; fight for survival, a belief in the power within nature to materialize our dreams, infinite amount of energy, karma, Spirit, the cyclic nature of Mother Earth, Grandfather Sun, Grandmother moon, fire, water wind, and earth. Destruction and creation.
Our indigenous roots are important to us in understanding the world and our place in it. And to become aware that all cultures are one connected in our roots.
We have forgotten our ancestors, and become blind to these powers and their true purpose. We have become so disconnected with Spirit, our inner essence, and with our higher self.
There is too much noise.
Too much greed.
Too much hate.
We must learn a new path for humanity.
Two-Eyed Seeing
In Marshall's words "Two-Eyed Seeing refers to learning to see from one eye with the strengths of Indigenous ways of knowing and from the other eye with the strengths of Western ways of knowing and to using both of these eyes together” (Bartlett, Marshall, & Marshall, 2012, p. 335).
This avoids a clash of knowledges (Canadian Council on Learning [CCL], 2007). Thus, Two-Eyed Seeing intentionally and respectfully brings together our different ways of knowing, to motivate people to use all our gifts so we leave the world a better place and do not compromise the opportunities for our youth (Bartlett, Marshall, & Marshall, 2007). The concentration on the common ground between Indigenous and Western ways of knowing means that one does not have to relinquish either position but can come to understand elements of both (Brandt, 2007).








Healing is done at the soul level.
The healer must have connection to her/his soul. The connection of the healer's soul and the soul of the one being healed is of utmost importance.
The most powerful healing energy is the energy of love. It is the love of the light within, I become aware of the light in you.

CHAKRA CLEARING AND BALANCING
Our body is an energetic system through which the universal life force flows. Chakras connect you with a larger part of yourself, the universe and hold the secrets of your unique self, your unique soul. Blocked energy in our chakras can often lead to illness, so it’s important to keep the energy flowing freely. Our chakras sometimes are filled with sludge and cannot spin correctly.
HEAVY ENERGY CLEARING (EXTRACTIONS)
In the Incan shamanic traditions there are no “bad or negative” energies. There are only energies that are “light,” and so support life, and energies that are “heavy,” which need to be removed.
There are times when events, addictions or traumas in our lives can attract Heavy Energies or Entities. Heavy Energy that we create in our own lives, or that is created by someone else that we come in contact with, can take on a life of its own and impact us in various ways. This dense energy needs to be removed and discarded.
Sometimes, an Earthbound Spirit may be present. That spirit can attach to your energy body. The spirit should be removed and sent across the Rainbow Bridge to The Light, so that you and the spirit can receive healing.
The Illumination process transforms heavy energies into light, thus allowing you to turn your emotional wounds into sources of power and wisdom.
An Illumination burns up any sludge or deposits that have attached themselves to your chakra wall. It combusts any toxic energy causing physical and emotional imprints. This then allows the cleaning of the imprints from your Luminous Energy Field that are associated with the “theme” you are working through. When the imprints are erased (cleaned out) negative emotions and behaviors can be erased thus allowing your immune system to open up and allow physical healing to move forward.
Since only one healing issue, along with its chakra, should be worked on during this type of session, it is important that the core issue be found. While you work with your Shaman, issues make themselves known. This then begins the process of honing in to the deep down core that affects your chakra as you both, together, talk it through.
These can be intentionally sent toward an individual, a family, or a place and can cause havoc and illness. Curses need not be done intentionally but sometimes some things are expressed in such a forceful manner (extreme anger) we find that what is said has just placed a curse upon the person or thing that the words were directed towards. All three, curses, hexes, and spells need to be broken and the person or persons who were affected need to be placed under a spiritual protection. Energetic walls may also need to be put in place to further protect the client.
CURSES, HEXES AND SPELLS
ILLUMINATION
Soul Retrieval is the process of retrieving parts of ourselves that we have lost due to trauma or abuse. When your soul part has fled, you feel as though something is missing or maybe you feel as if something is following you. It can manifest as an illness, emotional upheaval, fear and insecurity. Soul loss may also occur when you willingly give part of your soul to someone.
Together with your shaman it will be determined if you did have soul loss. If that is the conclusion, your Shaman will journey on your behalf to retrieve the missing soul part. The part is then reintegrated into you. Processing is then done to allow you to understand the circumstances of the soul loss and what is needed in to order to keep it from leaving once again.
SOUL RETRIEVAL
Balancing your adrenal pulse with the “earth pulse” which is the pulse at which the earth resonates, can be very beneficial if you experience much stress in your life or you have been through a traumatic event. The “Earth Pulse” is known as the Schumann Resonance and is approximately 8 beats per minute.
When your adrenal pulse is slowed down to match the “earth pulse”, it works towards balancing your adrenals, and bringing you “back down to earth”. When our system is in a constant state of adrenal imbalance (fight or flight), it is difficult to achieve healing. Abnormal function of an adrenal system has been correlated with inflammatory diseases and deficient immune function. While in this state the body suppresses the healing hormones we need to recover from stress.
Resetting our fight-or-flight response can help you work towards relieving the devastating physiological effects of stress. It is recommended that if you experience a “shocking” experience such as an accident, you should have your Adrenals balanced energetically.
The Shaman, as psychopomp (conductor of souls to the afterworld) for the person who has or is preparing to transition, as well as the family. One of the greatest gifts at this time is the ability to face death without fear. This can be a fear of leaving unfinished business, fear of just leaving, or fear of the unknown. The work to be accomplished is to be of assistance in helping through clearing away any heavy energy, help with any forgiveness issues, and hold space so that the person passing can do so without any trauma and fear. The goal is assisting your loved one leave this earth plain in a meaningful and as smooth transition as possible.
Often intrusive and heavy energies can have a profound, negative effect upon those abiding in or doing business in these spaces. It is not unusual for a Shaman to be called because objects are being moved or have disappeared in the home, because they smell unusual smells, see shadows, etc. The removal of these energies, closing up of openings in the land (vortex or gateway) where energies are coming from and installation of protective systems can dramatically improve the quality of life/work for all who are affected.
There are times when we have given all of ourselves to someone to the point that we have given them part of our soul. This can happen when you love someone so much that you energetically attach yourself to them with a cord that you can’t seem to cut no matter how you try. This can also happen when someone steals your energy whether they did it intentionally or not. If a person finds that they cannot fully let go of someone even when they are being harmed by them, they should consider doing an energetic disconnect. Shaman Jean invoked the help of Archangel Michael to walk with you through the process holding space for you and clearing you of all imprints that were made a part of your Luminous Energy Field.

Shamanic Outcomes
Feeling more at peace: After a shamanic journey, you may feel more at peace with yourself and your past.
Increased energy: You may feel more energized and have more presence.
Improved well-being: Shamanic healing can lead to an overall improvement in physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional well-being.
Release of emotions: You may be able to release trapped emotions or traumas.
Shamans recognize two realities reflecting an individual's state of consciousness. People in the ordinary state of consciousness perceive ordinary reality; those in the shamanic state of consciousness enter into and perceive non-ordinary reality.
The primary task is to help restore wholeness to the individual or community. The connection with helping spirits to clear out blocking, or negative, intrusive energy (extraction), bring back soul essences lost during trauma or illness (soul retrieval), and engage in spiritual healing (guided visualizations, ritual, etc).
Shamanic healing is interactive, enabling individuals to regain their power and participate in their own healing.
Many many cultures still practice shamanism today as a part of their everyday life. They seek health and healing for their mind, body and spirit from their local shaman. They understand and appreciate the interconnections between humans and nature. They find peace and stress reduction by simple daily practices that bring balance into their homes and families.
