The Way of the Shaman: The Basic Workshop with Michael Harner and Susan Mokelke
Oct 30 2010 - Oct 31 2010
International authorities on shamanism Michael Harner and Susan Mokelke introduce participants to core shamanism-the universal and near-universal basic methods that shamans use to enter a non-ordinary reality for problem solving, well-being,
and healing. During this experiential workshop, participants receive an initiation into shamanic journeying, aided by drumming and other techniques for experiencing the shamanic state of consciousness, as well as for divination and healing. This workshop is a prerequisite for advanced workshops and training courses given by approved faculty members of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies. www.shamanism.org.
Michael Harner, PhD, anthropologist and founder of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies, is internationally recognized for originating core shamanism and pioneering the return of shamanism and the shamanic journey to contemporary life. He has done fieldwork in the upper Amazon, western North America, Samiland (Lapland), and the Canadian Arctic. His books include The Way of the Shaman, Hallucinogens and Shamanism, and The Jivaro: People of the Sacred Waterfalls.
Susan Mokelke, JD, coteaches with Michael Harner for the Foundation for Shamanic Studies. She has written several articles on shamanism, including "Effective Core Shamanic Drumming Circles," "Ethical Considerations in Shamanic Healing," and "Core Shamanism and Daily Life." She has studied and practiced shamanism since 1996 and serves as the executive director of the foundation.
