Shamanism helps us connect to our inner wisdom, that innate compass that seeks balance and harmony through connection; connection within ourselves, with one another, with Mother Earth, and with our Source.  In words of renowned shamanic practitioner Sandra Ingerman and Hank Wesselman, "Shamanism reveals that we are part of Nature and one with all of life. It is understood that in the shaman's worlds everything in existence has a spirit and is alive, and that the spiritual aspects of all of life are interconnected through what is often called the web of life. Since we are part of Nature, Nature itself becomes a helping spirit that has much to share with us about how to bring our lives back into harmony and balance." - Awakening to the Spirit World.

Some of the techniques used in Shamanic Healing include:

• Power animal retrieval. A power animal is your very own personal Helping Spirit in the form of an animal. They are spiritual guardians that you can call upon to get guidance, insight, power, protection, and healing.
  
• Dream interpretation. From a shamanic perspective, dreams relay very important messages from the Spirit World. Have you ever had interesting, vivid or repeating dreams that make you wonder whether there is something more to it than just a dream? Your helping spirits might be trying to tell you something.
  
• Soul retrieval. Traumatic or difficult experiences in this or previous lives might cause the fragmentation of the soul. Have you ever felt as if there was something missing inside of you? A soul retrieval can help you reintegrate parts of your soul that might be lost, and therefore help you feel more connected.
• Psychopomp work. When it is time to leave our physical body, that part of our soul that lived in this planet returns to the spirit world to continue with our evolution. However, souls can sometimes get lost or stuck in this plane, specially if there was a traumatic or sudden death. Psychopomp is a very ancient technique that helps souls get where they need to go if they are stuck or lost.
• Shamanic extraction. This treatment helps you remove spirit intrusions that do not belong to you.
