This process is for those seeking personal spiritual transformation and deeper levels of healing. Participants pass through portals of initiation that empower them to transform their lives. They find themselves engaging their soul’s purpose, while becoming more spiritually embodied in their daily lives. SHIP is an incredible journey that will teach participants how to truly Embody Shamanic Consciousness in Every Day Life.

There are three ways to participate in SHIP. The process consists of either five 5-Day Initiations over approximately 13 to 15 months, two 11 days within a year, and the occasional one month SHIP program where it is possible to do the entire process within one month. Upon completion, each graduate who qualifies will be awarded the Shamanic Breathwork ™ Initiate Certificate. Some graduates may qualify to be ordained as Shamanic Ministers.

The 5 SHIP Initiations are as follows:

Session #1 – 5 Cycles of Change
Session #2 – Family of Origin Patterns
Session #3 - Dancing with the Shadow
Session #4 - Sacred Marriage/Sacred Union
Session #5 - Discovering Sacred Purpose

There is a recommended reading list and a music cd list for each Initiation. Many of the SHIP participants have found it very helpful to email or phone other SHIP MATES in between sessions, to mentor with a VR staff member, to work the 30 Questions, and to attend A Shamanic 12 Step Talking Stick Meeting in their area.

Many of the SHIP programs are held at Isis Cove. While here you may schedule other sessions with support staff for readings of various kinds, massage, body and energy work. Occasionally purification lodges and vision quests are offered on an individual basis, you may check with staff to sign up for these sessions. Personal private intensives are available if time permits.
