What Is A Shaman?

A shaman is someone who works with both the physical and non-physical aspects of life to support healing, balance, and clarity. In simple terms, a shaman acts as a bridge—helping people release what no longer serves them, such as unresolved trauma, emotional patterns, or energetic imbalances, and reconnect with their own inner strength and clarity.

 

Shamanic work looks at the whole person: body, mind, emotions, and energy. Life challenges do not always come from a single source; they can be influenced by past experiences, inherited patterns, emotional wounds, or energetic stress. The role of the shaman is to identify the root of imbalance, clear what is interfering, and support the restoration of harmony so a person can move forward with greater ease and stability.

 

Shamanic healing can be done in person or remotely. Because this work operates on the level of energy and awareness, it is not limited by physical location. Just as intention, prayer, or emotional connection can be felt across distance, shamanic work can be effective without being physically present. Whether in person or remote, the focus remains the same: restoring balance, clarity, and alignment.

 

At its core, shamanic work is about reconnection—helping people realign with themselves, their environment, and their sense of direction so they can live with greater strength, grounding, and purpose.

What Is Distance/Remote Healing

Distance/Remote Healing is a powerful method in Shamanism. My experience in both giving and receiving distance sessions is that it's powerful. Because with energy and spirit, there are no time and space limitations, we can send energy/spiritual healing across vast distances and into the past or future.
