Shamanism: A Pathway to Deep Healing and Spiritual Balance

What is Shamanism?
Shamanism is an ancient healing tradition and a way of life, connecting us with nature and all of creation. The word ‘shaman’ (pronounced SHAH-mahn) originates from the Tungus tribe in Siberia and refers to a person who’s able to interact with both the normal world and the world of spirits, usually as a sort of intermediary between the two.
A healing modality that dates back at least 50,000 years, shamanism addresses the spiritual aspect of illnesses and imbalances of the body, mind and soul. Shamanic practitioners work in the realm of spirits. In order to receive messages from the spirits, they journey into hidden, invisible realms that lay beyond the physical reality we inhabit. The fact that Shamanic practices across the globe are remarkably similar suggests a universality of wisdom that transcends race, culture, belief, historical context or lifestyle.
ABOUT THE WIRED SHAMAN
I am a shamanic practitioner who works in partnership with compassionate helping spirits. My role is simple and sacred. I ask for their guidance with a clear intention to relieve suffering, and I carry their healing power to the people who ask for support.
The internet is part of my toolkit. It lets me share spirit messages and healing across any distance, quickly and clearly. Many clients choose to meet from home, where they feel most at ease. Distance sessions are deeply effective. The connection is immediate, the presence is tangible, and nothing meaningful is lost. For the spirits and the living world, geography is a non issue.
Nature sits at the heart of my practice. The living world is full of quiet intelligence, from the way trees communicate through hidden root networks to the way wind, water, and stone hold memory and power. As people work with me, their bond with nature often deepens. They begin to notice signs, feel steadier in their bodies, and trust their own inner guidance.

The Wired Shaman
I view shamanism as ancient wisdom that can be interpreted for modern living. Given the fact that shamanism has endured tens of thousands of years with core traditions intact, it’s no surprise it can be interpreted to resonate with our own experiences.
shamanic treatments
How does this process work?
People seek shamanic treatments for any of a number of reasons, including relief from grief, stress, depression, PTSD and physical ailments. Some are simply curious about shamanism and appreciate the energy boost it provides.
My work typically begins with an email from a client in which they identify the issues they are seeking to address with shamanic assistance. With that client’s permission, I journey and connect with my helping spirits for advice and direction on that person’s priorities and to make sure the time is right for them to receive treatment. I then share with the client the results of that consultation to ensure the client understands and is comfortable with the proposed treatment.
If the client decides to proceed, they books an appointment for a session, either in person in at my office or a distance healing session. Shamanic treatments aren’t intended to take the place of a medical doctor’s care and don’t interfere with any medical treatments a client may be following under a physician’s care. I don’t diagnose or treat injuries or illness and don’t prescribe any medications.
Many illnesses or conditions have a spiritual component and the spirits may help alleviate a client’s pain and suffering. Typically, a shamanic session begins with the practitioner calling in the spirits using a rattle while the client relaxes. I ask my healing spirits what healing this person needs right now and from that point on, I do what they tell me. I’m not doing the healing; I’m the connection.
From there, I will utilize the shamanic healing practices in accordance with the instructions given by the the healing spirits during that session. Every shamanic practitioner develops their own treatment style based on their own experiences.
"I acknowledge with gratitude that I live and practice in Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia, on the unceded ancestral territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This land has been cared for by the Mi’kmaq for generations and remains governed by the Peace and Friendship Treaties, which uphold the spirit of mutual respect and coexistence. As a shamanic practitioner, I honour the deep wisdom of this land and its original caretakers, recognizing the sacred connection between nature, spirit, and healing."
