An immersive, monthly online course in Shamanism 

This course is offered to those who want a deep dive into the practice of shamanism, focusing in particular on shamanic journeying and spirit connection.

Whilst the course is held entirely online, it is NOT pre-recorded. It’s held monthly for 8 months over the winter season and involves one long face to face meeting (with breaks) a month, within a small group of up to 6 participants, alongside monthly one-to-one mentoring sessions with Samara.

What’s it about

Dive into shamanism and animism, their ancient lineage and the practice of connecting with the ancestral traditions of Britain. Develop your own rooted belonging to the land and connection with your ancestral lineage.

Learn how to work with shamanic journeying as a technique for your own personal healing and transformation alongside developing relationships with your personal spirit guides.

Dive into interspecies connection, learning plant communication and the language of the spiritual web-of-life.

The course offers techniques to enable you to fully land in your soul, in your soul purpose and discover the wild, animal, you. It’s an in-depth course, diving deeply but held gently, with plenty of time for questions, discussion and time for integration.

What’s involved

Each group meeting involves one or two shamanic journeys, so that by the time the course has ended, you will be proficient at this practice, for personal purposes. Note the course does not teach practices for you to share with others.

In addition, nature connection practices will regularly be offered, including a connection walk focusing on omens and signs during the final session. As the course is held online, these activities are optional, but sometimes space will be scheduled for this within the course.

Each month the practices offered during the group meeting will be taken more deeply through the 1-1 mentoring sessions, which allow time for you to dive more deeply into your personal healing journey and shamanic practices.

Objectives

At the end of the course you will have acquired skills that will enable you to be more aware of life from a different perspective, more aware of spirit and more aware of how to look after and protect your soul and physical being. You will be able to journey (shamanically) safely alone and will have developed solid relationships with your spirit guides.

“It has been a really deep and intense few months, with lots of inner work and recognising and releasing unhelpful patterns for me. None of this would have been possible without Samara’s guidance. I really loved being a part of a lovely, compassionate circle, where I felt safe to share and be fully myself, possibly for the first time in my life. It has been absolutely transformational” Rose

IS IT FOR YOU?

The course would suit you if:

• You are curious about spirit and spirit connection

• You see yourself as intuitive

• You are sensitive to elements of the modern world and want to find a different way of being

• You want to learn techniques which can help you on your own personal healing journey

• You have robust awareness of & solid ability to function within the physical realm

• You are up for an intensive deep-dive into self

• You are willing to explore your experiences within a small group

• You are open to and accept that you may be challenged on the course

• You are looking for something to aid personal transformation and/ or a spiritual exploration

• You find peace in nature and want to deepen connection with more-than-human beings

  The course wouldn’t suit you if:

• You don’t believe in the existence of spirit or are challenged by the concept

• You feel challenged by different ways of being/ doing

• You are currently struggling with your mental health or have previously had experiences which led to psychiatric intervention & medication

• You aren’t prepared to do deep healing work on yourself during the course

• You are looking for a training course or want to train/ skill up to offer more practices to others

The spaces I offer are neurodivergent friendly. I completely understand (being neurodivergent myself) the edges involved in coming together with a group of strangers to dive into work that can be personal and challenging and I do my very best to help everyone feel comfortable and safe.

The groups are small and I hold a space free of judgement and shame. I invite people to bring their true selves fully into the space. Sharing is not timed and is completely optional, you can freely come and go as you please, there is zero pressure to do or say anything and no question is too much.
