    The 'Therapeutic Shamanism' series.

    About this series

    Many people these days feel a sense that something is missing from modern-day life. They feel a yearning for something that is not met by money, possessions, human interactions or even by religions. Alongside this may be a disenchantment with consumerist culture, and concerns about the impact that we humans are having on the natural world. If this in any way describes you, then this book is for you.

    For many centuries, earth-based spiritual practices have been persecuted and suppressed all over the world. They have been replaced by materialism, the myth of human supremacy, and with ungrounded religions. We have lost our connection with nature, our spiritual connection with the natural world. We have tamed most of the Earth to the extent that little true wilderness is left. We have destroyed indigenous cultures who lived in harmony with the environment for thousands of years. We have domesticated not only the world around us but ourselves too. In doing so, we have lost our way. We have become uprooted and adrift and are killing the ecosystems to which we belong.

    The ancient practice of shamanism cultivates a deep spiritual connection to the Earth. It is not a religion. There is no dogma, and no belief is required. Instead, it offers practical methods that can heal our sense of disconnection and provides a template for living in a healthy relationship with the Earth. Therapeutic Shamanism is rooted in these ancient practices and shows us how we can take them forward and make them relevant to modern-day life.

    Following on from the highly-acclaimed first volume in this series, "Rewilding Yourself"' (Volume 2 in the Therapeutic Shamanism Series) is an in-depth and comprehensive guide, uniquely dedicated to shamanic lower-world practices. Eye-opening and full of life-changing insights, it also provides a practical, step-by-step guide to reconnecting to the sacredness of the earth and to (re)discovering the deep, wild and connected roots of your own, true soul.

    Praise for "The Shamanic Journey", the first book in this series...

    'The best book about shamanism that I have ever read'. "Practical, compassionate and wise". "Clearly and intelligently written from a firm foundation of knowledge and experience". "Intelligent and 'down to earth". "A fantastic book!". "Absorbing and fascinating". "A very special and important book". "Un-put-down-able". "Life-changing". "A clear map to an ethical, peaceful, grounded way of being". "Very relevant and necessary for contemporary society". "Full of profound wisdom and practical guidance". "An instant classic". "A beautifully crafted book". "Thoughtful, accessible and practical". "Warm, grounded and encouraging". "Intelligent, beautifully written, thoughtful, thought provoking, and deeply engaging.".

      A ground-breaking and stand-out book on shamanism, written for both complete beginners and for anyone already with experience. At once both practical and deeply thought-provoking, this book examines how to make shamanic practice relevant and central to our modern-day lives. For those new to the subject, the book is a grounded, easy-to-read and yet comprehensive introduction to the ancient knowledge, wisdom and practices of shamanism. In addition, it provides an easy-to-follow guide, with clearly-explained, practical exercises and suggestions about how to get started on the shamanic path. Far more than just a beginner’s guide though, the book can be eye-opening to any open-minded shamanic practitioner. As a highly practical form of spirituality, our ancestors always adapted shamanism to the times and environment in which they lived. The book explores how, as we turned away from hunter-gathering, and with the rise of agriculture, domestication and ‘civilisation’, we largely lost our connection with shamanism. This profoundly changed us emotionally, psychologically and spiritually, and radically altered the environment around us. Facing the challenges of our times, the book discusses how we can reclaim shamanism and, most importantly, how to make it relevant to the changed times in which we now live, and how doing this may be crucial to our very survival and return to sanity. In ‘The Shamanic Journey’ Paul Francis draws on his wealth of knowledge and experience in shamanism, anthropology and psychotherapy. Well researched, and yet written in an accessible and conversational style, he combines these three elements into a shamanic practice that is spirit-led, down-to-earth, psychologically-aware, ethical and compassionate. What emerges is a spiritual practice that is both deeply rooted in ancient wisdom, and one that we can use to heal not only ourselves, but society, and the planet.  If you let them, the knowledge and practices in this book can positively change your life, and the way in which you see and experience the world around you. The book is the first in the ‘Therapeutic Shamanism’ series. The series is a thorough, step-by-step guide to shamanic practice, the first of its kind to go into such detail and depth. An apprenticeship for modern times.  The next books in the series will include: Rewilding Your Soul; The Medicine Wheel; Soul Loss and Soul Retrieval; Healing the Mother and Father Wounds; Healing Ancestral and Family Wounds; The Inner Totem Pole; Plant-Spirit Shamanism; Shamanic Counselling and Psychotherapy.
