What Actually Happens in a Shamanic Session (No Robes Required)
People ask me this more than almost anything else. Not 'does shamanic work actually work' and not 'what do you believe'. They want to know what happens in a shamanic session. What they're walking into. Whether they'll have to say a chant, hold a rattle, wear something, or believe something before we even begin. So let me answer plainly, the way I wish someone had answered for me the first time.

Consent and the Cosmos: The Ethics of Ritual Intervention
I grew up in a Christian household where we prayed for everybody. Friends, strangers, people who had wronged us, people who had never asked and would not have wanted our prayers if they had been asked. This was not considered an ethical problem. It was considered an expression of love. The logic was simple and, within its own framework, coherent: prayer is good, God is sovereign, and offering something good on someone's behalf requires no permission from the recipient. Intent

These burdens often come from difficult ancestors whose unresolved pain, trauma, or harmful patterns continue to affect their descendants.

The Difference Between Healing and Just Getting Better at Hiding
There is a kind of person who has their life together. They show up. They deliver. They listen well at dinner parties, handle crisis with apparent equanimity, and never seem to fall apart at inconvenient moments. They may even be admired for their resilience, their groundedness, their capacity to absorb difficulty without visible effect.
I have been that person. And I want to tell you something about it: it isn't the same as healing. Not even close.

Why Grief Is a Spiritual Practice, Not a Problem From Which to Recover
In many indigenous traditions, grief is understood as the soul's appropriate response to love encountering loss. If you loved something, a person, a relationship, a version of yourself, a way of life, then grief is the price of that love, and it is also the proof of it. To rush through grief is to dishonour the love that caused it. To medicate it into silence is to refuse the very thing that might change you.

What 10 Years of Shamanic Practice Taught Me About Suffering
Ten years of shamanic practice taught me something wellness culture won't tell you:
You don't heal by avoiding your pain. You heal by going directly into it.
There's a sanitised version of spirituality that's sold in wellness culture: light, love, positive vibes only. Manifest your dreams. Raise your vibration. Connect with your spirit guides who'll tell you you're special and destined for greatness.
That's not the shamanic path I've walked.

Therapy Can't Fix What Your Life Is Missing
I need to say something that might make some people uncomfortable: therapy culture has convinced us that if we're unhappy, unfulfilled, or struggling with life, the solution is to heal our psychological wounds. Process our trauma. Reframe our thoughts. Develop better coping strategies. But sometimes, maybe more often than we want to admit, the problem isn't that we're broken. It's that our lives lack meaning, purpose, or connection to something larger than ourselves. Therapy
