This program will guide you through the fundamental transmissions and techniques used to hold space for a Shamanic Breathwork ceremony. You will have the oportunity to practice and hone your skills with each of these training elements during the Shamanic Breathwork journey, utilizing the breath, sound healing through chakra-attuned music, energetic bodywork, soul return and extraction, shamanic art processes, scribing and group processing. Journeyers enter an altered state of consciousness that transforms and integrates trauma experienced earlier in life; creates a connection with their soul and spirit guides; and receive visions about their sacred purpose in the world. You will walk between the worlds: working on physical, emotional, mental, and energetic levels as you learn to embody the elements.

 

In addition to the guidance of your teachers, you will have the support of a co-journeyer - a fellow student who will assist you with whatever your need during your psycho-spiritual voyage. You will switch roles with your partner halfway through the day, helping to create a nurturing, supportive, and safe space in which all participants can grow together as a community. Upon completion of the elemental journeys, you can feel fully embodied through each Shamanic Breathwork experience. There will also be practice in Yoga, Pranayama, Meditation, and Astrological insights throughout the course.

 

 

Facilitator Skills Segments

Bodywork

In this segment, students develop and create a deeper relationship with their physical bodies. They will learn a variety of bodywork techniques to utilize during the Shamanic Breathwork Journey. These techniques include shamanic tools and processes such as rebirthing, resistance, conscious touch, and energy clearing. Our Bodywork segment prepares students and allows them to understand first-hand the importance of creating a safe container for themselves and others during a Shamanic Breathwork Journey.

​

Music

An instrumental piece of the Shamanic Breathwork Process is the music. The musical sets selected and played for Shamanic Breathwork Journeys are customized and designed to activate the chakra system and energy fields. Students will learn how to use their intuition and bodies to select appropriate music to engage each chakra. Students will also learn how to compile music and create a Shamanic Breathwork Musical Set from start to finish

 

Art

The Art segment teaches students the importance of tuning into and communicating with the subconscious mind through archetypal symbols that arise during Shamanic Breathwork Journeys. They will discover how to create art processes, and how to read artwork using the Elemental Five Cycles of Change and other symbolism.

 

Group Processing

During the Processing segment of our Facilitator Skills Training, students will learn how to create and hold a safe container where participants feel energetically held and comfortable with sharing their Shamanic Breathwork Journeys. Students will also learn how to give meaningful feedback and counseling as Shamanic Breathwork Facilitators—remembering that at the core of every individual resides an inner shaman guiding their journey.
