~Why Shamanic Journeying is Unique ~

Learn how it differs from meditation and visualization technics, and why it’s a powerful too for healing, insight, and transformation.
Unlike meditation, which emphasizes stillness and presence, and visualization, which often involves guided imagery for relaxation or manifestation. Shamanic journeying is an active, intentional exploration of non ordinary reality. It uses rhythmic sound to shift brainwaves into a theta state.

The 6 Pillars of the Holistic Energy and Somatic / Breathwork
Energy Healing

Inner Child (IFS Parts work to help release Trauma / Generational Cycles)
Holistic Facilitation and Practitioner utilizing somatic therapy exercises to release any energetic blockages and for deeper Kundalini Activation within Somatic Energy Breathwork.
Breathwork
Somatic energy breathwork techniques to awaken Kundalini energy, a variation of Meditations and other practices to release trauma held within the body.
Womb/Hara Healing
A holistic therapy that combines abdominal massage, breathwork, and energy work to release trauma, stagnant energy, and emotional blockages from the womb and lower abdomen (the Hara). This aims to restore balance, reconnect individuals to their creative life force, and support fertility, menstrual health, and emotional well-being by addressing issues like pain, trauma, and anxiety.
Breathwork / Somatic Energy / Meditation work / Kundalini Activation
Interconnected practices centered on the mind-body connection.
These modalities can be used to manage stress, release trauma, and promote spiritual growth.
Breathwork
Is the practice of consciously controlling your breathing to influence your mental, physical, and emotional state. It is a foundational component of many ancient wellness traditions, including yoga, and has been widely adapted into modern therapeutic techniques.
How it works:
-
By focusing on your breath, you can switch from your sympathetic "fight-or-flight" nervous system to your parasympathetic "rest-and-digest" nervous system, promoting a state of calm.
-
The practice can help to release stored stress and tension, which often manifests as shallow, rapid breathing.
-
Different techniques, from slow and deep to rapid and cyclical, are used for varying effects, such as relaxation or energization.
Techniques:
-
4-7-8 breathing: Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 7, and exhale for 8 to promote relaxation and sleep.
-
Box breathing: Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 4, exhale for 4, and hold for 4 to calm the nervous system and increase focus.
-
Holotropic breathing: A more intense practice involving rapid, controlled breathing to achieve altered states of consciousness. It is best practiced with a trained facilitator.
Somatic energy work
Somatic energy work focuses on the mind-body connection to release trauma and other difficult experiences stored in the body. It operates on the principle that traumatic energy can get "trapped" in the nervous system when the body's natural fight, flight, or freeze response is incomplete.
How it works:
-
Techniques are designed to help you gently discharge trapped energy and move out of a hyper-alert state.
-
You are guided to become aware of your bodily sensations (known as "felt sense") and observe where you hold tension or discomfort.
-
Practices can include gentle movements, guided body scans, and breathwork to help complete the body's natural process of releasing trauma.
Techniques:
-
Somatic Experiencing (SE): A specific modality developed by Peter Levine that helps release pent-up energy from traumatic events.
-
Grounding exercises: Techniques like focusing on the feeling of your feet on the floor to connect with the present moment.
-
Body scans: Slowly bringing your attention to different parts of your body to notice and release sensations or tension.
Meditation
Meditation is a mind-body practice that involves focusing attention to achieve a mentally clear and emotionally calm state. It is a broad term that encompasses many techniques with thousands of years of history across various traditions.
How it works:
-
Meditation helps you reduce the constant stream of thoughts that cause stress and anxiety.
-
By training your focus, you can cultivate a more balanced, accepting, and self-aware perspective.
-
Regular practice has been shown to reduce stress, improve sleep, lower blood pressure, and positively alter brain structure.
Techniques:
-
Mindfulness meditation: Focusing on the present moment by observing thoughts, feelings, and sensations without judgment.
-
Guided meditation: Following a trained instructor through a session, often with visual or thematic prompts.
-
Mantra meditation: Repeating a word, sound, or phrase to help quiet the mind.
-
Walking meditation: Focusing on the physical sensation of walking to stay present and aware.
Kundalini activation
Kundalini activation is a spiritual and energetic process aimed at awakening a dormant "coiled" energy believed to reside at the base of the spine. Part of the yogic tradition, it is considered a powerful life force that can lead to spiritual enlightenment and holistic healing.
How it works:
-
Activation can occur through practices like meditation, specific breathwork (pranayama), chanting, and yoga postures (kriyas).
-
When awakened, this energy is believed to travel up the central energetic channel, dissolving blockages in the chakras and leading to expanded states of consciousness and heightened awareness.
-
While some experience a spontaneous awakening, traditions emphasize careful preparation with a qualified guide, as the process can be very intense and unpredictable.
Practices:
-
Kundalini Yoga: A system of yoga specifically designed to awaken and guide Kundalini energy through a combination of movement, meditation, and breathwork.
-
Energy transmission: Facilitated sessions where an instructor guides the activation of this energy in others, such as through the Kundalini Activation Process (KAP).
Important considerations:
-
Guidance is recommended: Because Kundalini activation can bring up intense physical and emotional responses, it is often advised to work with an experienced teacher.
-
Health precautions: Individuals with a history of mental health issues, heart conditions, or other serious health concerns should consult a healthcare provider before attempting intense breathwork or Kundalini practices.
