No matter the skepticism, it is possible for a shaman to perform healing ceremonies without actually being in close proximity with those they pray for – it all depends on them and their true intent for doing so.
At a remote or distant session, the shaman travels into alternate realities to perform healing similar to that which would be done directly.
How it works
Remote Shamanic Healing sessions take place via phone, zoom or skype at an agreed upon time and date between healer and client. They are just as effective as in-person sessions, working across space and time much like the love a parent gives their child across time and space.
Energy healers work with the energy field or aura of their client in order to release negative patterns and traumas, using techniques such as chakra balancing, energy clearing and soul retrieval. Energetic or shamanic healing is highly effective yet extremely safe; practitioners channel energy from within themselves into recipients with intent and attention.
At a distance shamanic healing session, a shaman will create sacred space for their recipient and invoke spirit guides to journey into non-ordinary states of reality in order to perform healing. They simply need to lie or sit comfortably during this process with an openness toward receiving.
Experiences during and post healing sessions will vary for everyone; some common indicators that the session is working include warmth in parts of the body, tingling sensations, energy flowing through or around them, feeling light and elated, or experiencing weight being lifted off their shoulders similar to when heavy baggage is released, feeling heaviness (similar to when heavy baggage is dropped off), blankness or sleepiness as well as sense of connection, release of blocks and overall deep relaxation. All these feelings should not cause alarm as these are wonderful signs that it is working – don’t be alarmed about them – these sensations indicate it’s working and should not cause alarm!
As with other energetic healing sessions, the results of shamanic healing treatments tend to build over time and remain apparent even months or even years post-session. Therefore, it’s vital that recipients remain open and conscious of their responsibility in nurturing this process through self-care and mindfulness practices.
Shamans often ask their recipients for feedback in order to tailor subsequent sessions or integrate the changes that have come about as a result of healing sessions. After each session I schedule a thirty minute call with them so I can offer suggestions and guidance in supporting this healing journey.
Benefits
Shamanic healing sessions can address many different issues. From emotional blocks such as self-hatred or depression to lack of purpose or balance or chronic illnesses or addictions – shamanic healing sessions offer transformation on many different levels. A session may even lead to deep spiritual transformation.
At sessions, I use singing, drumming, rattling, feather work or extraction to access the spirit world. If necessary, herbal medicine, tobacco or non-ingestible medicinal plants (such as sage lavender and yarrow) may also be utilized. My goal is to provide you with a peaceful space where your spirit can thrive and create.
As part of my shamanic healing sessions, it is my job to tune into your energy field and connect with spirit allies who can provide your healing – this may take place either remotely or directly in person. Once connected with my healing allies, I will follow their indications in retrieving power, healing or releasing anything no longer serving your highest good.
Shamanism recognizes three main sources of illness: power loss, fear and soul loss. Power loss occurs when life situations lead to chaos and disconnection with community, well-being and safety; fear depletes immunity leading to disease; soul loss can result from trauma or abuse – if these sources of sickness were addressed with shamanic healing then results could be truly profound.
Depossession (psychopomp) is another essential component of shamanic healing, used when deceased spirits cannot cross over, or there are negative entities present that have entered your body. My healing allies will gently guide these souls or entities away from you and remove them without violence – often more peacefully than depicted in exorcism movies!
Preparation
Shamans use their powers in harmony with spirit world to bring about healing and balance to this realm. By tuning into any energy that surrounds someone and healing according to their needs, shamans are adept at tuning into any disturbance in energy that has no longer served you well and breaking any curses or energies that no longer serve your interests; additionally clearing away negative patterns of thought, belief and behaviour during remote sessions with them.
Step one is setting an intention that you are ready for healing sessions. This can be accomplished verbally or mentally. For optimal results, writing down questions and areas you need assistance is recommended as this allows your shaman to better serve you during their appointment time.
At the outset of each healing session, shamans enter a trance state and connect with their spiritual guides from other dimensions for advice on what action are most suitable to serving their client’s highest good.
They use various tools, such as drum or rattle, feathers, tobacco or crystals, to rebalance energy flow by clearing away fear or anger patterns that have blocked it up until now. Shipibo/Conibo massage techniques originating in the Amazon rainforest may also help clear resistance from physical, emotional or energetic bodies while banishing any foreign energies that cause harm.
Some clients have reported experiencing sensations during a session such as warmth, tingling or emotional release – this is completely normal and part of the healing process. Your shaman will relay any wisdom or advice they receive from spirit realm on your behalf before providing space for an after journey discussion about what was discovered and how you can apply the newfound understanding into daily life.
At the conclusion of a healing session, a shaman will perform a blessing for you that sends their loving energy back into this realm. They then provide space for further discussion such as healing rituals or ceremonies.
Results
Many shamanic healers use energy healing as an adjunct to their main area of expertise, as the ancient diagnostic tools and practices utilized by shamans predate modern allopathic medicine. Many physicians, nurses, physicians assistants, dentists, acupuncturists, chiropractors and social workers have started learning and employing these ancient methods as part of their practices.
One might seek remote healing sessions for various reasons. Perhaps they have been diagnosed with cancer and allopathic medical treatments aren’t helping, or perhaps their life feels off balance and they need something different to get things back on track or clear negative patterns of behavior that could be holding them back.
No matter the cause, shamans can help. Their services have proven highly successful at making life-altering changes for their clients – often breaking long-held patterns of negative thought, emotion and behavior; dissolving old contracts and agreements as well as clearing away blocks or cords in their path; this soul healing and clearing process relies on quantum physics which asserts that all particles in existence are connected; any action or interaction affects both parties simultaneously.
At each session, a shaman will employ their healing tools (drums, rattles, feathers, tobacco and crystals) to produce vibrational patterns necessary to restoring health in their client. They may use traditional healing songs (chanting or whistling or humming them) to introduce healing spirits and invoke energy that best suit each situation; depending on what information their client gives them they may use techniques such as fear release techniques to restore circulation, restore parts of themselves that may have been lost, energetic extraction from foreign entities or energetic extraction of foreign entities and obstacles from energetic situations.
Sometimes shamans must work from a distance because their clients live far away or they’re hospitalized and cannot be visited directly. In such instances, Zoom or other forms of teleconferencing technology is used to deliver remote healing sessions.
