Shamanic journeying
meditation
soul retrieval:
In Shamanic Journeying, a bit like Margaret trying to put her swan into the car anything can happen.
The monotonous drum beat creates an actual change in consciousness. From our normal awake ‘alpha-brain-wave-state’, to the dream awake ‘alpha theta state’.
This dream awake state is more like the twilight space just before you are fully awake, where you are awake and are aware of all going on around you but you are in an altered state of consciousness dreaming.
In this state we can:
- ask for and receive guidance
- ask for and receive healing
- meet allies or helping guides
- rest, relax and listen to the drum, which in its self is healing
- retrieve parts of our soul that have been lost through trauma
When you come to see me I will listen to what it is you need. We w focus on what you need for your well-being. I will explain how the drumming for the journey will send you off and call you back. Then we will open up a sacred space calling in ‘spirit’ – the creative source of the universe. You will then find a comfortable position, standing, sitting or lying I will begin drumming.
I might suggest some activities outside of our session, which might involve you going into nature, finding quiet inside and listening for guidance. Mainly I’m just a guide for what it is you need.
Shamanic techniques can be helpful, especially when used in conjunction with Homeopathy.
I trained with Eagles wing centre for contemporary Shamanism: https://eagleswing.co.uk/about-eagles-wing/ and Medicine woman, medicine ways: https://www.medicinewomanmedicineways.co.uk/
I have been going to see Emma and learning to Journey for many years, I have not only discovered new ways to relax but have discovered a whole new world of healing, and a team of helpers
Shamanic (space) clearing:
- Decluttering is a pain in the arse. It’s so much easier to shop than it is to let go of what’s no longer needed.
- Finding the right balance of what you need and what you have out grown is a tricky thing.
- Mainly think of me like Marie Kondo but from the midlands.
- Together we will call in and work with the spirits of your home, your allies and ancestors who love and want to help you, so we can see how you and your space really work best together.
- Its like cleaning and clearing but fun.
- Bab let’s find out what really sparks joy for you and what you no longer need.
Ceremony:
I offer all kinds of bespoke ceremonies. Mainly what do you want and need. I’ve married folk and I’ve run full moon ceremonies for women regularly. Ive set up and run sweat lodges and I’ve even done an eclipse full moon ceremony at the opening of an exhibition of moon art.
What do you want to celebrate? What needs marking? What magic do you want to bring to any occasion?
I’m always so excited to be part of any celebration, its a proper privilege to be part of and hold the space. The world needs more of this (other opinions are available 🙂 ceremony is when we come together in common unity and connection!
Want to know a bit more? I’m happy to chat, answer questions or arrange a session. Contact details.
I have been to many full moon ceremonies that Emma has run. They have always been very holding and transformative and helped me focus on the things I need to pay attention to within me in order to move forward in my life and be more fully present for myself and those in my life.
I recently attended a private view in Brighton at a small gallery called Brush. The exhibition’s theme was ‘Moon’ and it was held at the full Beaver moon in November. At the end of the evening Emma was invited to carry out a fire ceremony to mark the event.
I was interested to find out what this would entail, not normally being one for such activities myself, but I try and remain open to things. And I’m so glad I did.
Emma’s confidence and charisma shone out during the session and she held the space beautifully, allowing each of us around the fire to cast our regrets and negativities into the fire and to send prayers out to the ether. She created a such a safe space for all of us that I even ended up singing the mantra – and trust me when I say, it is so not me do that in public! It was such a moving experience and the energy it created followed me for days. If you ever get the chance to attend one of Emma’s events don’t pass it up!
