The Invisible Made Practical

The Invisible Made Practical

How the Internet itself, quietly proves that “woo woo” is not so woo after all…

Some people call spiritual energy work woo woo because you cannot hold it in your hand. Fair enough. You also cannot hold the Internet. Yet the web quietly touches almost every moment of your day. It carries your messages, your money, your maps, and your meetings through a world of signals you never see.

This is the irony and the gift. The same culture that doubts energy practice trusts the unseen web with its life. That is our doorway. If we can accept an invisible network that keeps us connected and informed, we can also accept a personal network of breath, attention, and intention that keeps us centered and clear.

The short story of the web and why it matters here

The Internet is a giant network that lets different systems talk. The World Wide Web sits on top of that network and gives us links and pages so we can find and share. The first version was built to help scientists pass information cleanly across distance. Today it is the quiet fabric of daily life. We do not need to know every wire and protocol to benefit. We follow a few simple steps, and it works.

Energy practice is similar. There is a deeper layer of experience that shapes how we feel and act. You do not have to be a physicist or a mystic to use it. A few simple steps can gather your power, brighten your field, and make your choices clean and kind.

Three parallels that make the invisible feel normal

  1. Invisible yet reliable
    The web moves packets you never see. You trust it because it works again and again.
    Energy practice moves attention and breath through a personal field. You trust it because your body and day change in repeatable ways. Breath slows. Thoughts unclench. Boundaries hold.
  2. Simple steps unlock huge systems
    On the web you click a link, type an address, and a path opens.
    In energy work you sit, breathe, and call your power home. A path opens inside you. The steps are simple. The effects are real.
  3. Connection at scale
    A small signal can reach the other side of the world.
    A small practice can change the tone of your whole day. You do not need drama. You need a clean signal that arrives where it is meant to go.

Why the “woo woo” label misses the point

Woo woo is a shrug word. It says unseen therefore unreal. But you already live by unseen systems every day. You flip a light switch and current flows. You speak into the air and your phone hands your words to a friend in another city. You open a browser and trust a river of code to bring you a page. The unseen can be practical. The question is not Do I see it… The question is Does it work and does it help me live well.

What energy practice actually does in plain language

  • It brings you back to center, so your choices come from your own field instead of from fear or social pull
  • It tones and brightens your boundaries, so other people’s moods do not cling to you
  • It steadies the nervous system, so your breath drops low and you recover faster after stress
  • It clears the signal, so your intuition and spiritual guidance feel clean and usable
  • It restores capacity, so you give from a full cup and stop the quiet leaks that lead to burnout

None of this requires belief. It asks for a few minutes of honest practice and a little curiosity about your own experience.

A gentle metaphor you can feel

Think of your personal field like your home Wi Fi. When the signal is strong and secure, everything works better. Pages load. Calls do not drop. You feel calm because the system is steady. When the signal is weak or open to every passerby, you get lag and noise. Energy practice is how you strengthen the signal and set a clean password. You gather your power close, you seal the field, and the noise falls away.

Where science sits in this conversation

Physics gives us language for fields, signals, and information. That language is a helpful mirror for spiritual practice, but it is a metaphor, not a proof. Science rests on equations and lab tests. Energy work rests on lived experience and skill. When we remember that, we can borrow the parallels without making claims we do not need. The point is usefulness. If a simple practice helps you meet your life with more steadiness and kindness, keep it.

 The deeper symbolism

  • The web began as a way to share knowledge across distance. Energy practice is a way to share wisdom across the distance inside you, from scattered mind back to present body and steady heart.
  • The web depends on agreed rules so signals do not collide. Energy practice gives you agreed steps so your inner signals do not collide.
  • The web changed the world by making the invisible usable. Energy practice changes your world the same way.

An invitation

If this framing softens the old woo woo story for you, come practice with me. In Calling in Your Power, you and a trusted partner learn calm, repeatable methods to gather your energy and keep it close. No jargon. No drama. Just clear steps you can use in minutes whenever you need steadiness. The invisible turns practical. And like the web, once you feel how it works, you will wonder how you managed without it.

Discovering the Power of Shamanic Distance Treatments

Discovering the Power of Shamanic Distance Treatments

When I wrote a previous testimonial about my experience with shamanism, I shared how the death of my beloved older brother left me broken. I didn’t know much about shamanism at the time but booked a shamanic treatment because I wanted to feel like myself again and to be able to function better. I believed I had nothing to lose.

As I lay down on Deborah’s healing table, she shook a rattle to call her helping spirits as she passed around me, laying a crystal here and another one there. It marked the beginning of regular shamanic treatments that guided me to a new chapter in my life that included loss but also support as my shamanic practitioner helped me discover a world of helping spirits, power animals and touchstones.

When Deborah suggested a distance treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic, I was somewhat hesitant but decided to trust the journey. After all, it hadn’t let me down so far. I knew she would be using a teddy bear as a ‘proxy’ and as I closed the blinds in my bedroom and lay down on my bed, Deborah texted to let me know my treatment was about to begin.

I felt extremely relaxed and comfortable and before long, I felt like my brother was in the room with me. He was smiling. That beautiful, familiar smile. He assured me he was fine, that I was fine and that he would always be with me but in a different way. I was sobbing but felt the comfort of the sun shining on my face. I felt what you might describe as a sensation in my hands, as though I was releasing something but not quite sure I wanted to let go.

As Deborah and I had discussed before my treatment, she texted me when it was complete, and I took some time to gather myself before calling her to discuss my experience. I don’t know if I was looking for affirmation, but I wanted to hear what she had to say before I allowed the words to tumble out of my mouth.

My brother was there, she confirmed, and indeed told me that we were both fine. He also told me it was time to let go; to let both of us move forward – together but apart. It now made sense why it felt like I was releasing something.

And the sun on my face? Deborah told me her helping spirits instructed her to take the teddy bear to a sunny window to let me know brighter days were ahead and that I just needed to be brave enough to walk towards them. Like always, everything came together and made complete sense.

Any hesitation I had about the power of distance treatments evaporated. Sure, having a treatment in the comfort of my own home was convenient but it was so much more. I felt like I was able to surrender myself to my treatment much more quickly. Could it be because I was surrounded by things that held such significance to me, including a picture of me with my brother and sister that has forever hung on my bedroom wall?

Though I tend to be very analytical, I realized it doesn’t really matter why my distance treatment had been so powerful – just that it had been so comforting and that Deborah was able to provide me with such wise advice that I’m confident will help me continue to move forward.

Shamanism – The Way of the Ancients

Shamanism – The Way of the Ancients

Archaeological evidence shows that since the dawn of recorded history shamans and the practice of shamanism have been common components in cultures all over the world.  I became fascinated by the concept that, at a time when there was no technology nor means of communicating long distances,  how did it come about that so many different and dispersed cultures practiced shamanic rituals that were eerily similar to one another? The benefits of shamanism must have been substantial because they have stood the test of time…

What are the benefits of Shamanism?

Many many cultures still practice shamanism today as a part of their everyday life.  They seek health and healing for their mind, body and spirit from their local shaman. They understand and appreciate the interconnections between humans and nature. They find peace and stress reduction by simple daily practices that bring balance into their homes and families.

Daily headlines in every media seem to indicate that mainstream North American culture is on a never ending search to decrease stress, increase happiness, improve mental health for us and our kids. So why then are Shamanism and other ancient strategies not more commonly practiced within our society?  Lack of awareness?  Suspicion? I really can’t say for certain.

What I can do is provide a convenient tool for those who are seeking  a lifestyle of less stress and more fulfillment a way of attaining that via awareness and learning. This is the purpose of this website: awareness and skills building though sharing experiences and online learning opportunities. It is a coupling of the ancient and the modern technologies to bring about this shared life enhancement goal.

It for this reason that I chose the the name ‘The Wired Shaman’… it is a respectful nod to Tim Berners-Lee, a British scientist at CERN, who invented the World Wide Web back in 1989. CERN is a scientific research organization that successfully brought together 22 member countries who have their best and brightest engineers and physicists working together to research and discover the fundamental structure of the universe. The Internet was developed for the purpose of allowing the CERN scientists and engineers to instantly share findings and data so they could move together in understanding the universe, how it came to be and how it works.

By using the medium of the Internet to communicate my message and the lessons, I hope to create a welcoming new portal that will allow you, and others like you, to launch a personal exploration of an ancient practice that spans our planet and may just expand our awareness of this universe and where we fit into it. So please stay a while and have a good look around. See if Shamanism speaks to you the way it has spoken to so many over thousands of years…. welcome!
