Testimonials:
Alida is a wonderful teacher. I have had more healing in this class than I have in 16 years of Shamanic Practice.
Thank you, Alida! -Angie
​
The course gave me an excellent structure for teaching those new to shamanic work to journey. It was a nice combination of instruction and opportunities to practice. -Cat, therapist
​
Although I have been journeying for many years this course helped me to dive even deeper into my journeys. Most specifically, by learning how to phrase questions to enable me to receive clearer answers to my journey questions.
Learning how to use these techniques with clients will help us expand the depth of our session time together.
