Taught by Anthony Rios - Guest Faculty
The Foundation for Shamanic Studies
Workshop is limited to 14 participants - please register early
Participants learn how to deal with the issue of dying and the destiny of souls from a shamanic perspective. The workshop is both for those who wish to learn for themselves, and for those who wish to help others who are in terminal situations or who have already passed on.
Experiences to be undertaken include learning how to become experientially familiar with the after-death realms, tracking a person using shamanic journeying, completing unfinished business, helping a person to cross over, and classic psychopomp work.
From a shamanic point of view, physical death does not represent the end of life, but is a major transition, a transformation. Coming to terms with one’s own dying and death enables shamans to support other people in dealing with these fundamental experiences. Shamans mediate between the living in ordinary reality and the souls of the deceased in non-ordinary reality. Furthermore, if the deceased cannot find their way onwards by themselves and need assistance, then shamans guide and assist these souls to their transcendent destinations.
Participants in this workshop deal with shamanic cosmology in depth. They become familiar with the process of dying from a shamanic point of view and develop an understanding of what happens to the essence of the human being – the soul – after death. Finally, they learn how the shamanic accompaniment of processes of death and grief can look in practice and how to do psychopomp work.
If you've been wanting to explore the magic and power of shamanism, and its application in the modern world with the process of death and dying, this is your chance to learn in a safe, reliable and trusted way using the teaching methods of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies - the premier shamanic teaching program available in the world.
If you're ready for the guidance and love of helping spirits, power animals and more, then this is the best way to learn, to explore and practice during a powerful and exciting weekend with like minded people.
