Shamanic Journeying Article

What is Shamanic Journeying?

Shamanic Journeying is a spiritual healing tool with ancient roots. Traditional shamans used this technique to act as intermediaries between the human and spirit realms. All people have access to spirit and many are discovering the shamanic journey as a tool for self growth, freedom, and healing.

People utilize the shamanic journey to receive answers to questions, gain clarity around relationships, or communicate with lost loved ones. In the journey you may meet a spiritual teacher, receive a power animal, or interact with yourself in past lives. You may contact a part of yourself that has been lost to a past trauma and bring it into current time through the act of Soul Retrieval.

Shamanic practitioners have journeyed for eons of time. Some sources trace shamanism to as far back as 25,000 to 40,000 years. Traditional shamans traveled to the spirit world to assist in healing spiritual as well as physical ills. They used many methods to achieve the state of consciousness that allowed them to contact these realms, such as drumming and chanting. Journeying is one of the spiritual healing tools used by traditional shamanic indigenous cultures throughout the world. It is still practiced today.

Our stressful, fast paced lives require us to reconnect to the non-physical part of our being referred to as the ‘soul’. It is difficult to experience this part of ourselves within our daily lives because it exists in a larger place of stillness, wholeness, and oneness; closer in vibration to the source of who we are. The answers we are seeking are accessible in this place of oneness. Journeying is a way to contact this place.

Why Journey?

People journey to receive information regarding life decisions, access their guides, find spiritual teachers, heal from long standing issues, or gain understanding about illness, life events, and life purpose. My journey experience has been the most rewarding of all the methods I’ve studied over the past 20 years, bringing me to a level of wholeness I was never able to achieve through other modalities. It helped me heal my past and deepened my abilities to assist others with their own lives. Previous to learning how to journey I was unable to get answers for myself and always looked to others to intuit for me. After learning this practice, I am now able to access these answers and know them as the truth because they come from within me.

How do you Journey?

Journeying is simply shifting the balance of your awareness from the heavily weighted thinking mind to the more relaxed, lightness of the being mind. If you’ve meditated, you may have spontaneously journeyed. Most people find it is very easy to do. My shaman described this shift in awareness being as easy as ‘rolling off a floating log’ – how easy is that?

Can anyone journey?

Most people find they can easily journey if they relax and allow the experience to be as it is. Putting aside expectations about what a journey should be and letting go are the initial steps to a successful journey

Experiencing the very essence of who we are as whole, unified beings is something we are all seeking. When we combine shamanic journeying with strong intent we have access to deeper healing than ordinary waking reality. Learning to journey gives us a tool we can use any time for deeper understanding and self healing.
