Shamanic Healing

Description

The Effects of Shamanic Healing & Other Healing Practices on General Well-Being – aims to explore the relationship between spirit and matter, but to explain it in relation to shamanic healing and other alternative medicines, which will in turn help us to understand the effects of shamanic healing and other alternative medicines on general well-being.

We will look in detail at the various techniques that together create a core shamanic experience, which can be used as a standalone therapy or with other therapies, be they of allopathic nature or otherwise. The work and ideas of today’s native and non-native shamans will be examined, along with altered states of consciousness, working with spirits, and the role of sound, the pyschopomp, compassion and the concept of living in harmony with nature and each other.

The origins of alternative medicine will be explored, as well as the various alternative medicines and therapies that are widely practiced today, their role in place of and alongside orthodox medicine, and how they can be used in tandem with shamanic healing for greater effect. We will examine the pros and cons of alternative medicine and orthodox medicine in a modern world, how there is a time and place for both schools of medicine, and how both can be used together to provide healing on the physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual level.

Very in-depth book. I use shamanic healing in my practice, I am quite new to it but this book has helped me to get a better understanding of myself and the spirit world. It is helping me to tune in better and be a better healer. It has helped me to be and stay grounded and in tune with my intuition. I used to be really scared of following my intuition because I was always worried it may be wrong, reading this book has given me the confidence I need to go deeper and become a better healer. Thanks Kenzo. Pauline D

I met Kenzo when I needed healing. I was carrying around so many bags from the past. I was hurting and felt very lost and isolated. The healing is on going but the book helps me to look differently at my life and face up to the things I can change. The book has been a real eye opener for me. I hope it helps others as much as it has helped me.  E. L

Oh wow – this is a really good book if you like the healing field. Very deep, sometimes too deep (for me) it has forced me to really look within and look at what I am doing with my life. It has challenged me to face up to a few demons from my past. Its not easy but I know it will be better for me. So excellent book, I need to read it again and really get my head around it. Recommend it. P. P. C

I haven’t finished reading this book yet, but I felt it was important to write a review now, as I don’t know when I will finish it. The reason for that is because I was completely lost when I started reading this book, but after getting only a third of the way through, I have gained clarity and direction and now know exactly what I need to be doing with my life. Now isn’t the right time for me to finish this book as I need to put into action the gifts it has already given me before I can continue on with the remaining chapters. But even if I never get round to finishing it, this book will always be something that I will treasure forever. Claire Ellery
