It is such a gift and privilege to have experienced dozens of deeply moving sessions with Victoria. With her loving support and guidance, I have been able to dive deep into my spirituality, particularly with shamanic journeying work. She has guided me during sessions to an expanded state of consciousness for healing, wisdom and learning about both past lives and present circumstances. I’ve discovered some of my main allies, including the tiger, the Goddess Athena, and the owl. The shamanic work has also helped to retrieve parts of my spirit that may have been fragmented in this life and re-integrate them.

Shamanism is the most ancient form of healing practiced by humans worldwide (40 000 years or more) and a way to connect with your deeper self through communion with nature and your helping spirits. Shamanism is not only concerned with the health of the individual, but also with the health of the entire community. This includes people, plants, animals, and all of life. The word shaman originates from the Tungus tribe in Siberia. It translates as “one who knows”.

Shamanic healing facilitates healing of the soul and is based on the notion that most illnesses (physical, mental, and emotional) have an underlying spiritual correlation.

A shamanic healing practitioner will act as an intermediary between you and your helping spirits in non-ordinary reality. In order to journey and connect with these helping spirits, the shamanic practitioner enters a trance state with the use of drums and rattles.

The healing information and insights retrieved from the journeying and the compassionate helping spirits serve as the foundation for the healing work undertaken on behalf of the client.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR SHAMANIC HEALING SESSION

A shamanic healing practitioner is trained to recognize that most illnesses have a spiritual component and that everything is connected – the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. Therefore, if one of these systems is out of balance the disharmony can be felt within the entire energetic field and web of a client’s life. The work of the healing practitioner is focused on helping you restore the harmony within and without. Read more about shamanism on the FAQ page.

While every session is different, the following steps will help provide you with a framework for the healing process.

  • Your session begins with a heart to heart conversation to help identify a healing focus.

  • A diagnostic shamanic journey is undertaken by me during which I consult with my helping spirits to help discern what is needed for you to experience greater wholeness, clarity, and resolution.

  • Remedies are performed utilizing one or several of the shamanic healing methods listed below.

  • The next step is integration. This often involves filling up with light and working with your light body to make sure the energies are realigned, in harmony, and supportive of your continued healing and growth.

  • We end with post-session tools to help support you and prevent reoccurrences.

I check in with you frequently to make sure I have your permission and your full awareness regarding the work that is taking place.

Note: Shamanic healing does not require a certain belief system for it to be successful. It is helpful to set an intention to heal, to let go of old patterns and struggles, and to trust in the goodness and potency of this work. 

As client you can expect to experience shifts during a session, but the full results of the healing will become evident with time. Often a series of shamanic sessions are needed to address the primary concern.

 

CATALOGUE OF SHAMANIC HEALING SERVICES


DIVINATION

Shamanic divination is a practice that seeks to discover hidden knowledge given by the compassionate helping spirits in non-ordinary reality.

When you are wrestling with any life issue and you want powerful, practical, and transformative answers to pressing questions, you can ask the helping spirits for their wise counsel. They may advise you about your overall physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. They may shed some light on your unique gifts and soul’s purpose.

The focus is wide and the helping spirits can answer questions in a myriad of ways. Sometimes, they offer very straight-forward advice, and sometimes they reply with metaphorical answers that require deep contemplation.

 

CORD CUTTING

A cord is a pathway for energy exchange. Energetic enmeshment sucks our vital life energy. We can become corded to another person, pet, place, event, community, organization, school, the field of a virus, a dream, a destiny etc.

We draw into our field what’s in the field of another when energetically attached. Cording muddies the waters for both parties. It’s a mutual agreement and often unconscious. Cords are likely to form as a way to seek connection and/or retrieve information during times of stress.

Symptoms of energetic enmeshment may include, depletion, fatigue, depression, anxiety, inability to move forward, chronic pain, and a sense of hopelessness to name a few.

Cutting energetic cords with another person does not mean cutting them out of your life. It means establishing a healthy connection that helps you maintain your personal boundaries. and overall well-being. Releasing unhealthy attachments will invite flow and balance into your life once again.

 

EXTRACTION

Involves tracking and removing spiritual blockages, foreign energies that have built up within a client’s body, or subtle body field over time. These energy intrusions effect our lives in adverse ways.

Intrusions are more likely to take hold when there has been loss of power or if the soul is fragmented and depleted through soul loss.

An intrusion can show up as physical pain, anger, fatigue, emotional stress and various localized illnesses. The inflammation and pain may often be deemed by Western medicine to be psychosomatic or to have no identifiable cause.

It is the role of the shamanic healing practitioner to extract and remove these harmful energies from the body. In this kind of extraction healing, the practitioner merges with a helping spirit to do the work of tracking and removal. The intrusion is then transmuted and returned to nature.

 

GUIDED JOURNEY

During a guided shamanic journey practitioner and client journey together to the unseen “spirit world” in order to receive guidance and facilitate healing. A guided journey is an interactive, empowering, and often profound experience that facilitates knowing, homecoming, and wholeness.

Your first shamanic journey typically includes a visit to your power place in non-ordinary reality where you will meet with some of your helping spirits uniquely assigned to you to help you experience greater wholeness and purpose.

When we feel the presence of a helping spirit there’s a feeling of comfort and relief knowing we are never alone.

Our helping spirits don’t impose on us. They wait for us to make the effort to connect with them because we must be ready. When we begin to partner with them, our intuition and innate psychic abilities become stronger.

Your helping spirits will guide you to your highest path in life, if you allow them to.

This session requires no previous journey experience. First time journeyers will receive a power animal retrieval as an extra means of support.

 

POWER ANIMAL RETRIEVAL

Is when a shamanic healing practitioner journeys to non-ordinary reality to seek and retrieve an animal, that is volunteering to come back or is showing up for the first time, in order to support and protect the client. The animal’s medicine and special gifts then become available to the client.

The role of power animals is to protect us from illness, injury, death and to keep us safe. They also help with transportation, protection, and healing when we journey to non-ordinary reality. Power animals can be mythical and extinct and they may incarnate as our pets if needed.

Why do power animals leave? They may leave when they have taught us all they can or fulfilled their purpose in other ways. Or because of trauma. Indications that a power animal has left can be; a sense that something is missing, loss of well-being, lethargy, lack or loss of vitality, depression, vulnerability, weakness, a series of misfortunes, loss of a sense of direction, increased susceptibility to shamanic and physical illness, gradual power loss, loss of livelihood, loss of property and wealth, loss of soulfulness.

 

SOUL RETRIEVAL

Soul retrieval is the remedy for soul loss. Soul loss happens when a part of our vital essence leaves and goes into non-ordinary reality in anticipation of trauma. It is an intelligent form of self-preservation.

There are many common symptoms of soul loss. Some of those are PTSD, depression, addiction, prolonged grief or coma, anxiety, suicidal tendencies, chronic pain, numbness or loss of physical sensation, memory loss, proneness to accidents, emotional disconnect, chronic illness, loss of vitality, immune deficiencies, disorientation, lack of meaning and inspiration, difficulty keeping your life together. Symptoms will persist until the soul loss has been addressed by a trained shamanic healing practitioner.

Sandra Ingerman, a leading authority on soul loss and soul retrieval, says, “Anytime someone says, ‘I have never been the same’ since a certain event, and they don’t mean this in a good way, soul loss has probably occurred.”

In response to soul loss, the shamanic practitioner has the job of bringing back the missing soul part and restoring wholeness. This involves a journey into non-ordinary reality where compassionate helping spirits assist the shamanic practitioner in locating and retrieving the soul part.

 

SOUL ESSENCE REMEMBRANCE

Many suffer from chronic forgetfulness. We don’t know who we are and this makes it difficult for us to recognize others true nature. So often we are welcomed into this world by people who can’t reflect back to us our true essence and unique gifts.

Soul Essence Remembrance is facilitated when a shamanic practitioner journeys back in time to experience a client’s soul essence as they were first ensouled. The practitioner shares his or her findings with the client enabling them to form a relationship with their infinite spirit. In addition, the shamanic practitioner may take the client on a guided journey for a direct experience of their soul essence. Remembrance leads to spiritual awakening and transformation. It is a tender moment shared by the practitioner and client.

 

SPACE TENDING AND CLEARING

Whether your home is your temple or just a place to eat and sleep, its overall condition will have an impact on your health, your relationships, your work and your spirit.

Everything that exists in a material form which we can see and touch also has a more subtle energy body that we cannot see. These energy fields can accumulate and radiate a certain quality of atmosphere. Even what we perceive as positive energy can create saturation.

Living with heavy saturation is like living in an energetic fog. There may be layers of it and these layers magnetize all kinds of energies. You may experience extreme fatigue, lack of clarity, feeling clogged or pent up, mood swings, unease, paranormal activity, inability to get things done, relationship drama, financial distress and depression.

Clearing, tending, and blessing your home are ways to restore balance and harmony using energy healing tools and practices.

 

COMPASSIONATE DEPOSSESSION

Compassionate depossession is the remedy for possession illness. Possession illness is when a disembodied being becomes attached to the energetic field of a living person with varying degrees of impact on personality and life. Illness, depression, substance abuse, phobias, emotional problems, suicidal tendencies and other issues may be in part due to the influence or overshadowing of a suffering being or beings.

Possession illness is surprisingly common. Most of us can be host to one or more suffering beings.

Compassionate depossession is the shamanic healing process by which the client is decoupled from the outside influence. It is an empowering and often humbling process as we are given the opportunity to assist another being in crossing over into the light and continuing their destiny journey in a positive and supportive manner while reclaiming our own sovereignty.

There can be a number of reasons why a disembodied being that experienced death did not leave the human realm successfully. They may suffer from confusion, regret, attachment to loved ones, heavy medications, fear of judgment and fear in general regarding the crossing over process. It may have been a sudden, unexpected death.

The light is welcoming of all beings, no matter what they did, or didn’t do, hence the name compassionate depossession.

 

CURSE UNRAVELLING

This work is heavily influenced by our lineages. Curses have been recorded since the beginning of the written word. All cultures are cursing cultures or come from cursing cultures. All our ancestors have been exposed. We are all susceptible.

Cursing activity increases during destabilizing conditions when resources are scarce. Some curses are meant to cause harm while most are unintentional or protective. Illness, injuries, accidents, misfortune, unrequited love, obstacles and challenges of a chronic nature may be signs that you are under the influence of one or several curses.

Curses influence all that sustains a particular family and all yet to be born. The unravelling is done through a series of short shamanic journeys undertaken by the practitioner in partnership with the compassionate helping spirits.

Having curse unravelling done broadens our understanding of what we’re made from as well as our gifts and medicine from our entire existence. It is a powerful shamanic healing tool that can help you reclaim your sovereignty and fulfill your divine destiny.

 

CEREMONY

The purpose of all ceremony is to call in spiritual assistance and mark transitions.

Ceremonies are used to honor, celebrate, heal and transform. Shamanic healing ceremonies are spiritual in nature and not a religious practice. They can work together with almost anyone's personal belief system.

Ceremony brings the sacred into ordinary life. Our ancestors have used ceremonies for tens of thousands of years to help navigate change and welcome in new cycles. It is most commonly used for healing, blessing, giving thanks, transformation, releasing blocks, calling in a true heart’s desire, rites of passage and celebrating and honoring life changes.

By performing ceremonies, a shift happens. As we call in our desires and release our blocks, we are free to step into a fuller life.
