Bestselling author of Shaman, Healer, Sage. Alberto Villoldo, a leading teacher of shamanism and founder of The Four Winds Society, will share the core practices of energy medicine, which include the illumination process and soul retrieval. These ancient practices are presented in a scientific and practical system of energy healing that will allow you to discover states of exceptional health and well-being, and participate in your future evolution. Shamanic initiation is the most direct way we can heal the emotional wounds that would otherwise keep us locked in a cycle of self-inflicted suffering and personal crisis. Once initiated, we recover the passion and life force that we once squandered in anger, lust, or greed. We then invest this life force in our well-being, to discover our power instead of continuing to feel stuck or overwhelmed by life.
