Have you noticed the rise in the use of Shamanic Journeying among healers and spiritual practitioners around the world, and that many people seem to be speaking of these magical drum journeys?

You may be wondering what it is and how Shamanic journeying can help you, so in this article, I will share some of the results you can expect from it.


First, let’s clarify more about Shamanism. In my own personal journey of reclaiming my gifts, my intuition and my power to heal both myself and others, I had the insight that it is our birthright to all use pure magic and energy with the right intention.


So, utilizing techniques from Shamanism is no exception to that, I believe that anyone is allowed to learn and then use these techniques for their own journey in life. So you do not need to be a Shaman or have lived in a Shamanic family/ lineage in order to use the practice. As long as you practice with the right intention.


There are also many different Shamanic traditions worldwide. Some are from Africa, Scandinavia, America, and so on. The Shamanic journeying I speak of in this article is a Universal method that is easy to apply for anyone.


When to use shamanic journeying and the benefits it can bring


1. When you want guidance and answers


If you find yourself doubting a decision or your own Intuition, getting stuck in that endless loop of ‘what if that, what if this..’ and you are not able to see clearly how to make the most aligned decisions for yourself, using Shamanic journeying is ideal.


The number of times I have seen my clients go from anxious confusion to ‘aha moments’ of deep clarity after these journeys is countless.


Why Shamanic journeying is great is because when you work with the spirit world, there are no lies as, only pure and clear communication can exist.


So, either through an image, a word, a sensation, or other type of symbolic guidance, you are able to receive answers from Spirit guides, Power animals, and/or Angelic beings that are supporting you on your soul's highest path.


2. When you want to heal a pattern that seems difficult to get out of


The reason why so many people feel like they try to change a pattern and it never seems to work, is because unless you get to the actual root of the problem, it’s much harder to change it.


So in Shamanic journey we can Illuminate where an energy block or pattern comes from, and Spirit can show if it originates from a past relationship you have had, your mother's experience from when you were in the womb, childhood events, or maybe even a past life.


After illuminating the root of it, a Soul retrieval or Cord removal can take place, where you are able to take back parts of your soul that have been lost and remove energies from your own life and physical/energetic body. You are able to step into a whole new pattern that you want instead.


The magic of these journeys is that we can also see ancestral and collective belief systems that might be affecting you and causing negative patterns to stay in your life. But I always believe the good wins, and that you always have the power to choose that.


3. When you want to manifest a dream


So as stated above, there is ways to receive guidance and clarity while also removing blocks on your path. So the power of this is that you can also utilize these tools when you want to manifest a dream.


By asking for guidance on what the best next steps for you to take are, you are able to connect with a future version of yourself that is already living in that reality, and through their guidance, you can change timelines by integrating the lessons and wisdom from the future into the now.

4. When you lack a sense of faith, trust, and safety in your life


If you, as many people in modern societies do, have found yourself lacking a sense of faith, feeling lonely and disconnected, and craving to feel a sense of safety and security in new ways.

Shamanic journeying is calling you!


Imagine that you feel like you have an entire team of support around you, always guiding you, always protecting you and making sure you are safe, always helping you towards your dreams.


How would that feel?


If you close your eyes and try to imagine that for a second, you probably will notice a deep longing in your heart. Imagine being able to call upon the powerful energy of an ancestor or a Power animal that makes you feel safe.


The longing for this is at your fingertips, because you do have this support in your life, I believe everyone does, it is simply up to you to receive it and allow for your personal soul guidance to enter your life with an open heart.


I believe that if you found yourself here, and read this entire article to this sentence, you have already started opening for this divine magic in your life.
