Stone Age Wisdom: The Healing Principles of Shamanism by Tom Crockett
Integral Shamanism
is an urban contemporary expression of an ancient wisdom tradition.
It is the shamanism of here and now. The shaman goes where healing
is needed and it seems to me that if we have any hope of returning
to a balanced relationship with the unseen world, we cannot do it
by simply escaping to exotic and pristine locations. We must do
the work where it is most needed. While we can learn much from traditional
shamans and indigenous cultures, our practice is here. We must be
open to what works-what moves ourselves and others toward wholeness
and balance. Healing ourselves and healing others around us through
ecstatic awareness is the work of the urban contemporary shaman.

Exploring
Shamanism: Using Ancient Rites to Discover the Unlimited Healing Powers
of Cosmos and Consciousness by Hillary S. Webb
The mediator between the sacred and the mundane is the shaman, a man or woman who
can, at will, enter into altered states of consciousness and make
contact with the realms of spirit in order to receive the knowledge
and power needed to transform the physical world. This book introduces
the reader to the shaman's role as healer, priest, and visionary,
and invites one to follow the shaman's journey from neophyte to "master
of ecstasy." This book delves into some of the basic skills that must
be developed in order for the individual to be effective as a shamanic
practitioner, and reveals how these same beliefs are reflected in
our everyday systems of science, psychology, and mythology. It offers
practical exercises that allow the reader to loosen the controlling
grip of the logical mind, allowing their heart-that deeply intuitive
channel of the spirit-the chance to speak clearly. |

The Book of Shamanic Healing by Kristin Madden
From the Author: This book is the result of decades or growth, learning, pain
and healing. The great physicist John Wheeler once said that universities
exist so the students can teach the professors. This holds true of
any profession and healers learn a great deal about themselves through
working with others. The credit for this book goes to all those people
that have graciously taught me by coming to me for healing.
My intent in writing this book was to provide an in-depth look at
the healing experience in order to assist other healers and the people
they work with. It is a manual of sorts for anyone using or wanting
to get involved with shamanic healing. Throughout the book, I offer
history, case studies, and relevant research along with first-hand
examples of methods and suggestions. |

Modern Shamanic Living: New Explorations of an Ancient Path by
Evelyn C. Rysdyk
Do you ever feel that your world is so "civilized" you can't express yourself?
That there is a part of you that needs to be remembered? Evelyn
Rysdyk can help you understand and use this feeling to transform your
life. She asserts that although most of us have been assimilated
into our agriculturally-based society full of rules and regulations
and community care, many of us still possess the urgent instincts
of the hunter- who lives in the moment - and the gatherer - who feels
part of the great fabric of life and thrives on the uncertainties
of the journey. Click

The
Four Agreements : A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom a Toltec Wisdom
Book
by Don Miguel Ruiz
Sit at the foot of a native elder and listen as great wisdom of days long past is passed
down. In The Four Agreements shamanic teacher and healer Don
Miguel Ruiz exposes self-limiting beliefs and presents a simple yet
effective code of personal conduct learned from his Toltec ancestors.
Full of grace and simple truth, this handsomely designed book makes
a lovely gift for anyone making an elementary change in life, and
it reads in a voice that you would expect from an indigenous shaman.
The four agreements are these: Be impeccable with your word. Don't
take anything personally. Don't make assumptions. Always do your best.
It's the how and why one should do these things that make The Four
Agreements worth reading and remembering. --P. Randall Cohan

Keepers
of the Ancient Knowledge : The Mystical World of the Q'ero Indians
of Peru by Joan Parisi Wilcox
The author, Joan Parisi Wilcox April 4, 1999
The most respected mystics of the Andes speak!
"Our clothes may be different, but we are all human beings--with love for
each other." So spoke a Q'ero shaman as he began to relate his
initiation story to me for my book, Keepers of the Ancient Knowledge.
This book is the first in the English language to record the teachings
of the Q'ero shamans of Peru in their own words. Known throughout
the south-central Andes as the "keepers of the ancient knowledge," the Q'ero are some of the most respected mystics of Peru and are acknowledged
by anthropologists as the indigenous population that has most purely
preserved the ancient mystical system. Click
