Somatic Shamanism with Kay Louise Aldred
Somatic Shamanism is a practice undertaken in a grounded, non-bypassing, and safe way. Shamanism is the life path of one who knows. The Tree of Life is the entryway of connection and travel whilst journeying. In the case of Somatic Shamanism the entry point is the body. Somatic means of the flesh and so this shamanic process cultivates your own 'fleshy knowing'. The purpose of Somatic Shamanism is for you to access your fleshy knowing and in doing so, release blocked energy, emotion and sensation – and so improve all aspects of your health and wellbeing: physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual. The added benefit is that through this you also gift liberation to, and improve the wellness of, your ancestral lines. As traditional shamanic teaching suggests, what you resolve for yourself you do for seven generations before and seven generations ahead. You no longer repeat and instead you repair. Once we connect to ourselves as The Tree of Life – we feel and know our roots, our ancestors and we connect to the alchemy and magic of our sun self, moon self, star self, fruit, bird, animal, plant, fire, water, air and spirit selves and release the belief that is separation between us and them. We also learn that our organs have spirit keepers and that we are directly connected to mythical beings. Indeed, that we are spirit, god, goddess – our flesh is them. The workbook offers you an overview of shamanism and the concept of the tree of life. This online course take you through exercises from the workbook, which take you in and through the body, to activate and engage your shamanic self and knowing. The course includes 2 videos and 12 audios which outline and discuss the content of chapter, demonstrate and facilitate activities and exercises from the book. Having your own copy of the workbook is mandatory and essential before you begin.
