About the event
A day of shamanic diagnostic and feather way training
Shamanic Diagnostic is the art of seeing the deeper patterns, traumas and challenges to get to the spiritual and energetic roots of the challenges. In this introduction, you will learn about gazing, body mapping, feather and smoke diagnostics, hand reading and more.
The Feather Way is a healing modality developed by Navajo healer Garrett Duncan, drawing from his Navajo Traditions and Reiki training, utilizing feathers as healing tools. Birds are messengers and call us into the freedom, mystery, and expansiveness of the air/spirit element. The Feather Way training provides a foundation to ground your practice and grow from. I will share the key insights and teachings from my elders and indigenous teachers that create the foundation of personal power necessary for helping others through the challenges and traumas of life.
Together these practices form a strong foundation for a successful shamanic healing practice.
This is great for beginners and experienced practitioners. Whether beginning or experienced, the key is always returning to the roots to deepen connection and understanding. 'Advanced' training is not taught, it's learned through experience and consistent returning to basics. This workshop provides a foundation.
