shamanic Frequently Asked Questions
Are you a shaman?
I consider myself an energy medicine practitioner with shamanic skills. Shamans are people who devote their whole lives to ritual and ceremony. I was not born into an indigenous shamanic lineage but have been initiated into one as an adult. I have been fortunate to study with shamans, learn their wisdom, and integrate their methods into my healing style.
How do you honor the indigenous communities from which you have learned this medicine?
I have supported indigenous communities since before I started to study shamanism. I have been a monthly contributor to the American Indian College Fund since 2010, in addition to other avenues of support.

How can shamanic medicine help specific populations?
Having worked in the medical field for many years, including at a military hospital, I feel particularly called to work with both healthcare workers and military personnel.
While their job descriptions may be quite different, neither group have easy careers.
They are expected to:
put their own interests aside for the benefit of others
perform difficult tasks, frequently under taxing circumstances
work longs hours, day in and day out, often for years
The cumulative effect of this constant giving over years can be draining.
