Shamanism

I ordered a book a few months ago actually on Shamanism and its called The Shaman. It goes over their beliefs and histories from every culture. its a good read less than ten bucks

GrandMaster Mark and I discussed this briefly and agreed that Sandra Ingerman's works might also be a good place to look for information and inspiration. Her books on soul retrieval, journeying, and healing toxic thoughts are all well worth checking out.

Awesome awesome! Do you know if the library would happen to have these or if they are available online? That would be helpful, I am a little poor at the moment but who isnt lol, but not a big deal. Thanks again

The Denver Public Library has books by all of the authors except for Namua Rahesha, Kenneth Meadows, and Jose & Lena Stevens. The books mentioned by Serge King and DJ Conway aren't available there, but other titles by them are.

If you don't live near the Denver Library perhaps they could transfer books to your branch? I guess that depends on how your library system is set up.

You might also check out the Denver Theosophical Society. Such societies usually have lending libraries that contain books on all sorts of spiritual topics, often including shamanism.

The Denver Theosophical Society's website says it's free for non-members to borrow books, but you would have to speak with them to see if they have any of the books you're looking for.

There is a Metaphysical Library near Seattle that has many of the books listed. Maybe there's something like that somewhere in Colorado too?

I didnt really even think the local library would have this kind of stuff, good call! I requested three books, should be at the library starting tomorrow. Thank you so much for your help. I'll get back to you when I have more questions lol.

Is it possible to create some sort of lesson plan or give us some starting direction? I would like to see these alternative programs become a new Forum area within the TOTJO website.

Reiki, Shamanism, and other therapies would make a excellent part of the study program for physical and mental healing just as becoming a clergy member is for spiritual healing.
