Tend to the roots.
Awaken the heart.
In shamanism, there are three worlds – the Lower World, the Middle World and the Upper World. Connecting these three worlds is a pillar or tree that the shaman uses to travel between the worlds. In doing so, they bring back wisdom, healing and empowerment to restore the spiritual wholeness of their community.
In everyday reality, climbing a tree safely requires a stable, balanced foundation with three points of contact: two hands and one foot or two feet and one hand. Rush to the top without this firm foundation and a strong wind or misplaced step may send us to the ground.
Shamanism offers a stable, balanced spiritual foundation in the form of the three worlds, bringing together ancestral wisdom, higher wisdom and deep attunement with the spirits of nature.
By learning how to navigate these worlds in respectful relationship with our ancestors and allies,
we tend to the roots and awaken the heart.
Offerings
By learning how to journey, you are learning how to climb this tree for yourself from a firm foundation.
Shamanism is a practice of direct revelation. It helps you drop beneath the noise of a faster, louder, more fragmented modern world to access your own spiritual wisdom. With the aid of your ancestors, allies and spirits of nature, you will learn how to safely navigate these unseen realms to bring back practical information, healing and guidance for your everyday life and community.
I offer one-to-one tuition to help you find your footing. These personalised sessions take place over a minimum of one to three sessions of 2 hours each, giving you the practical tools and confidence to form lasting relationships with your own helping spirits.
Sessions are available in person in central Cheltenham or online.
To heal is to make whole. When we experience trauma or major life transitions, fragments of our power can become scattered across the three worlds, shaking our core and weakening our roots. In our day-to-day, this fragmentation can manifest as a feeling of stagnation, stuckness or disconnection.
Shamanic healing works to restore that wholeness. By navigating the unseen realms on your behalf, my allies and I clear the way to return your power and reweave the threads of your spirit’s fabric . A session may involve power retrieval, soul retrieval, ancestral work or personalised ritual to anchor soul healing in everyday reality.
A healing session typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours.
Sessions are available in person in central Cheltenham or online.
The central tree connects us to all life across time and space, so a shamanic healing session may bring to light issues of an ancestral nature.
When the roots of our lineage carry unresolved trauma, it can untether us from the present. By stepping into the unseen worlds to disentangle and reweave the ancestral web, we can clear inherited wounds, patterns and beliefs. In doing so, we mend the root system so we can safely reconnect to our ancestral resources and gifts for the collective benefit of ourselves, our community and future descendants now.
An ancestral healing session typically lasts between 2.5 to 3 hours.
Sessions are available in person in central Cheltenham or online.
