PROGRAM:  The Eye of the Eagle Shamanic Healer Training is an intensive shamanic training program for anyone interested in studying and practicing advanced shamanic methods and healing practices. It is an extensive and in-depth program that requires a commitment to personal practice outside of class in order to strengthen and deepen the student’s relationship with helping spirits, which is the fundamental basis for any shamanic work.

            This training program will teach you classic shamanic healing methods such as: extraction, power animal retrieval,

soul retrieval, depossession, psychopomp (helping the souls of those who have died cross over), word and song doctoring, sound healing, long distance healing, healing with Spiritual Light, healing with plant and elemental spirits, karmic clearing, and working with star beings and cosmic rays of healing energy.

            Students will participate in group ritual and initiation work focused on preparing you to be a clear vessel and channel (what shamans call “a hollow bone”) for Divine Light and Love to flow through. Emphasis will be on working with the guidance of spirit guides in all diagnostic and exploratory work.

            Shamanism is a way of looking at the world with the belief that all of life has spirit and there exists spirit helpers, guides and partners who wish to help all living beings. These spirit guides are also the intermediaries between living beings and the Creator. While it is possible to connect directly with the Creator, spirit guides are highly valuable to give us humans direct and detailed guidance and help with our lives and our soul’s journey.

SHAMANIC JOURNEYING:

For many centuries shamans around the world have practiced certain techniques to communicate with the Divine and with helping spirits to access wisdom, knowledge, healing and assistance for themselves and their communities. Shamans have also worked with nature spirits, ancestors, the elements, devas, angels and celestial and divine star beings to live in harmony with the earth and to help the earth and its inhabitants stay in balance.

            The shamanic journey is central to the process of communicating with spirits and is most often facilitated by the use of drumming and rattling. Shamanic journeying allows the shaman to travel to non-ordinary reality (the spirit realm) to meet and work with helping spirits and spirit guides of many different kinds.

REQUIRED PREREQUISITE:

            Participants in this program must have some knowledge of shamanic journeying prior to enrollment. You do not have to be proficient in journeying, but you must already have had at least some basic instruction. You can attend a workshop in shamanic journeying taught by Leontine Hartzell in March or June, 2010 or taught by another qualified teacher. If unable to take a class in journeying,

you are required to read and practice journeying from Sandra Ingerman’s book: “Shamanic Journeying: A Beginner’s Guide” prior to the first class.  If you already have some experience with journeying, it is recommended that you read Ingerman’s book as well.

PERSONAL HEALING WORK:

            While enrolled in the Eye of the Eagle Shamanic Healer Training it is strongly recommended that you receive regular shamanic or energy healing treatments of some kind from a qualified practitioner. While students will do healing work on each other in class on a regular basis as part of the training, students are urged to receive healing treatments from a skilled healer outside of class to facilitate your own personal growth and healing while undergoing shamanic training. The process of becoming a healer and shamanic practitioner requires that one work through karmic issues and emotional, energetic and psychological blocks in order to be able to connect and work in partnership directly with higher and higher levels of spirit helpers and guides. The shamanic training process is a process of transformation and you will be best served by arranging to have support during this process. Leontine sees students for private sessions outside of class as well as can provide a list of recommended practitioners.

RECOMMENDED READING:

            It is highly recommended that you read several of the following books about core shamanism and shamanic practices to prepare for, and while enrolled in, the Eye of the Eagle Shamanic Healer Training:

The Way of the Shaman, Michael Harner

Shamanism as a Spiritual Practice for Daily Life, Tom Cowan

Soul Retrieval, Sandra Ingerman

Medicine for the Earth, Sandra Ingerman

Shamanic Voices, Joan Halifax

There are many other excellent books about shamanism and different shamanic practices. Please read at least  2-4 others of your selection.

GOAL OF THE SHAMANIC HEALER TRAINING:

            This program trains people to learn how to be spiritual healers and community spiritual leaders. Whether you will work on individuals doing healing work, conduct ceremonies and rituals, work privately with the spirits of the earth, or focus on enriching your own spiritual practices, this program will give you a wide basis of knowledge and practice to work with helping spirits of many kinds for healing, balance and harmony.

            In these accelerating changing times on planet earth, more and more people are awakening to their true spiritual natures and their soul callings to be more connected to spiritual energies. By committing to expanding your spiritual practice and knowledge you can take responsibility for your true place in your family and community to reveal and utilize your true soul’s gifts in this lifetime.

            By participating in this program you will also be welcomed into a growing  spiritual community of  shamanic practitioners who gather periodically for ritual and ceremony as well as more advanced learning. Our goal is to join together to create strong circles of light for the creation of love, light, balance to elevate our vibrations in alignment with pure Light.
