Shamanic Healing

 What Is Shamanism  

To understand the Shamanic philosophy it is important to grasp the concept of what in Shamanic terms is called the 'Wyrd'  the root on which all their philosophy is based. The term Wyrd is the original form of today’s weird, which means strange, of the unexplainable. Wyrd had essentially the same meaning more than a thousand years ago in Shamanic Europe, but in sacred rather than mundane realms. Wyrd was the unexplainable force - the great mystery underlining all existence. The essence of the Wyrd is that the Universe exists within polarities of force, rather like the eastern concepts of yin and yang. According to Shamanic beliefs the Universe originally consisted of two mighty unimaginably vast force regions one of fire, the other of ice. When the fire and ice met, they exploded, creating a great mist charged with magic force and vitality. This is the mist of knowledge existing beyond time, concealing

 What Is A Shaman 

In the Shamanic view of the world, all things are inter-connected in a web of beginnings, everything affects everything else. The Shamanic way is the way to honour all kingdoms mineral, plant, animal and human, to honour the four elements earth, air, fire and water, to honour and develop the four aspects of ourselves, physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. With the celebrations of the seasons we attune ourselves to the flow of the Wyird the energy of life. Shamans whom we in the civilized world have called medicine men and witch doctors are the keeper of ancient techniques that they used to achieve and maintain well-being and healing of their community and themselves.

In Shamanic Healing the maintenance of ones personal power is fundamental to well-being. The Shaman must stay centred and balanced this is achieved by remaining rooted in personal connection to the earth, from this earth connection the Shaman is then able to reach into the spirit. In this way, the Shaman becomes a channel between the energies of the earth, nature and the energies of the spirit world.

In engaging in the Shamanic practice the Shaman moves between what is termed the ordinary state of consciousness and the Shamanic state of consciousness. It is in the Shamanic state of consciousness that one contacts guides. The Shaman depends on a special form of personal power, which is usually supplied by his guardian, helper or power animal , a spiritual being that not only protects and serves the Shaman but becomes another identity or alter ego. Without a guardian, helper or power animal it is virtually impossible to be a Shaman, for the Shaman must have this strong basic power source.

Do You Want To Be Healed ? 

For every individual, the shamanic healing process is a unique journey into personal history, present need and future aspirations. Therefore a confidential consultation is undertaken before healing techniques are defined and mutually agreed.

I believe that shamanic healing is a beneficial force for growth and change. It deepens awareness of both the causes of problems within one's life and the path forward to greater well-being and wholeness. It is a means of activating one's own inner healing abilities. I see it as a profound means to self-empowerment.

Shamanic healing works by unblocking stuck energies, restoring flow, and returns power and energy to their rightful places. Power retrieval restores part of the client’s personal power in the form of their power animal, which they have lost their connection to; and soul retrieval returns soul essence; whilst extraction and depossession healings remove and transmute what belongs elsewhere.

This way of healing brings potential for profound change, and should only be undertaken if you are open to allowing change to happen, to complete the healing. It can help any dis-ease or problem, and often helps when a person just feels ‘stuck’. Guidance can also be obtained on issues such as careers, relationships, etc.

A healing session begins with a discussion of your needs. Using The Padmic System™ Raymond implements many great Shamanic techniques that can be found from around the world. He may journey using the drum beat, to work with guides and animal allies or the implementation of Futhark Runes  for your healing. Other techniques include energy healing incorporating the use of sound; this is a powerful way to shift blockages in the energy system; guided journeying, regression, and the incorporation of Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki. In some cases, you may learn the technique of journeying, in a safe setting where Raymond can drum for you to do your own, guided, journey.
