There is a throughline in me, one that always been studying the shamanic. Since I can remember, I have had an interest in the boundaries between the seen and unseen. More formally, I started my shamanic training in 2014, in sessions with my teacher Leila Lees.
I started working in circle in 2018, and the circle has evolved over that time into a core group who I have studied with for the past five years. Working with the same people over this time, the learning goes deep. The witnessing of many perspectives, holding compassion for all our roles and stories, all the experiences and feelings that we weave into a life.

The shamanic is a realm of the human imagination, a powerfully real place. The shamanic is interwoven with the whole world, the natural world, the world of feeling and of mystery.

I have just completed the four year training with Lasavia Healing, incorporating many aspects of classical shamanic practice, and incorporating the essence remedies created by Leila. The tools of the shamanic include the drum, the rattle and the mask. The shamanic is visual, sensual and visceral. The shamanic looks to create balance in the whole, seeing and listening for patterns of potential transformation.

I recently offered my first shamanic bodywork session, and look forward to integrating the other forms of training I have undertaken – massage, aromatherapy, meridian activation, hands on and energy field healing.

I was asked to hold a land and home healing session recently. It was the first time outside of my training that I was using these skills, and they felt very natural. In a session, I connect with my support and neutralise my body in order to allow feeling and images to arise.
My feet connect with the land and walk me. My voice, my rattles and my drum interact with vibrational dimensions and offer up prayers of release, integration and flow. I understand healing to offer openness to change, sometimes disruptive, always working towards harmony. These changes may manifest subtly, the transformative work in our energetic fields cascading into our cellular structure as we incorporate understanding, balance and wisdom.

I am starting my practice from here.
