The Wisdom of the Elements
Ritual, Ceremony & Sacred Practice
With Medicine Woman Magaly Quispe Singona
A 4-Week Offering with Shamans Directory
Beginning 27 November 2026
Mother Earth’s elements are powerfully alive. We can witness their wild and magnificent forces all around us. As human beings, we are not separate from nature or from the greater universe; we are part of this living web, and the elemental energies that move through the world also move through us.
In the Andean traditions, the elements are considered “angel servicio,” powerful allies in service to Pachamama, supporting transformation within both the microcosmos and macrocosmos. Our ancestors lived in profound relationship with the natural world, honoring the elements through sacred times, places, rituals, ceremonies, and practices.
What might become possible when we enter into a deeper relationship with these living elements and consciously work with their energies within ourselves and our lives?
Join Medicine Woman Magaly Quispe Singona of the Qanchis Illya Rainbow Lineage of Chinchero, Peru, for a beautiful four-week journey into the sacred elements. Each week, through ancestral teachings, ritual, ceremony, guided practices, and experiential work, Magaly will invite us to deepen our connection with Pachamama and explore the unique qualities, teachings, and medicine of Earth, Water, Air, and Fire.
Whether you are new to Andean Earth-based traditions or already walking this path, you are warmly invited to join us for this unique offering.
Come and discover the living wisdom of the sacred elements and the alchemical power of elemental practice.

Understanding Ancestors, Ancestral Healing & Connecting in Modern Times
With Zulu Sangoma Makhosi Baba Muvo Ngcobo
A 4-Week Online Course, Begins 12 October 2026
For Indigenous traditions around the world, ancestors remain central to spiritual and healing practices —remembered, honored, and called upon for guidance, support, and connection. Yet in much of the modern Western world, our relationship with our ancestors has become increasingly distant.
Ancestral Connection is a live four-week journey exploring what it means to remember, listen, relate, and live in meaningful relationship with our ancestors in modern times.
Led by Shamans Directory Member Makhosi Baba Muvo Ngcobo, Indigenous Elder and Traditional Zulu Sangoma, and supported by Makhosi Nadinne Dyen, a Trauma Psychotherapist bridging Western and Indigenous knowledge, the journey brings teachings from the Zulu Sangoma tradition into conversation with contemporary Western psychology.
Over four weeks participants will explore:
Who are our ancestors, and what do we inherit? What is ancestral healing, and how might our ancestors be trying to communicate with us? How can we build a meaningful relationship with our ancestors without needing to adopt another culture's spiritual practices as our own? How can we carry ancestral connection into modern life?
Each week builds upon the last, offering an unfolding journey into patterns, wounds, resilience, wisdom, gifts, and belonging. A complimentary Live Family Constellations Workshop is also included.

With Healer and Medicine Maker Shayne Case
Begins 07 October 2026
What does it mean to remain open and connected to the world without becoming overwhelmed by everything around you?
For those who are sensitive to the emotions, energies, and experiences of others, learning to recognize and tend to our own energetic boundaries can be a profound practice of self-awareness, presence, and connection.

Through storytelling, meditation, ceremony, and experiential learning, Shayne creates space to explore your relationship with your own energy and with the living world around you. Her work draws on relationship with plants, stones, land, ancestors, and Spirit, offering an approach to energetic boundaries that is less about building walls and more about becoming deeply rooted in your own center.
Protecting your energy isn't about closing yourself off. Over seven weeks, Shayne invites you to explore, practice, listen, and discover what becomes possible when you can remain connected without losing connection to yourself.
This course offers practical support for healers, empaths, bodyworkers, space holders, and anyone who finds themselves absorbing the emotions or energy of others.
Heka Rising Alchemy of Egypt
A Sacred Journey Through the Temples Within
Four-Week Online Course with Zahra Indigo Rønlov
Begins 06 October 2026
Imagine traveling the River Nile not only across the landscapes of ancient Egypt, but also through your own energetic body. During these four sacred gatherings, we will journey into the inner Etheric Egypt that lives within each of us, mirrored by the sun, waters, sands, temples, and sacred landscapes of the physical land of Egypt.
Join Sacred Witness, Alchemical Healer, and Shamans Directory Ambassador Zahra Indigo Rønlov for a profound four-part journey into the temples within and the mysteries of Etheric Egypt.
Along this journey, the seven chakras become sacred temples, each offering a doorway into the wisdom of the Neteru — the sacred deities and archetypal forces of ancient Egypt. Re, Sekhmet, and Ma’at will accompany us as powerful allies, supporting us in clearing, illuminating, and restoring our energetic centers.
Each gathering will weave together teachings, guided journeys, chakra clearing, reflection, and sacred sharing. Within each temple, you will meet its resident Neteru and explore their mythology, symbolism, archetypal energy, medicine, and teachings — and discover how these qualities may live within you.
Enter Etheric Egypt and receive the messages, symbols, teachings and gifts that the temples have to offer.
Cultivate Wellbeing with Plant Medicines
Healing Rituals & Ancestral Folklore
A 5-Week Online Course with Adriana Ayales
Hosted by The Shift Network
29 September - 27 October 2027
Guided by Rainforest Curandera and Herbalist Adriana Ayales, founder of Anima Mundi Herbals, this 5-week journey explores how medicinal plants from Central and South America have traditionally been woven together with folklore, ceremonies, dreamwork, cleansing rituals, and a deep relationship with the natural world.
According to Adriana, symptoms can be understood as invitations from the body to restore balance before deeper "dis-ease" has the chance to take root. Throughout the course, you will explore how herbs, roots, flowers, barks, and botanical preparations have traditionally supported digestion, vitality, emotional healing, nervous system balance, and spiritual health.
You will also discover time-honored practices including limpias (traditional spiritual cleansing ceremonies), flower baths, smoke medicine, dreamwork, and contemplative rituals that have supported healing, guidance, and protection for generations.
Topics include: Indigenous healing cosmologies, recognizing patterns of imbalance; plants of power for digestion, resilience, and vitality, and botanical support for grief, fear, and emotional healing.
Whether you are an herbalist, holistic practitioner, or simply feel called to deepen your relationship with plants, this course offers practical knowledge, meaningful rituals, and a deeper trust in your body’s wisdom, and your own capacity to cultivate lasting wellbeing.
Heal the Hidden Wounds of Sexual Trauma
For Trauma Survivors & Healing Practitioners
A 20-Week Course with Diana Beaulieu
Hosted by The Shift Network
24 September 2026 - 25 February 2027
Sexual trauma can leave wounds that affect far more than our thoughts and memories. It can influence our sense of safety, boundaries, vitality, relationships, and connection with ourselves.
In this in-depth 20-week live video training, womb healing teacher, author, and Shamans Directory Ambassador Diana Beaulieu presents a comprehensive approach to understanding trauma through the energetic body. Drawing on formal studies in biology and psychoneuroimmunology, more than two decades of research, over 5,000 shamanic journeys, and years of working with women, Diana teaches that beneath even our deepest wounds, an original energetic blueprint of wholeness remains, naturally capable of intimacy, vitality, and a deep sense of safety and belonging.
Through her InnerWomb Method™, participants will explore compassionate pathways for restoring energetic integrity, healthy boundaries, safety, sovereignty, and life force.
For selected sessions, Diana is joined by her life and teaching partner Simon Sanud, who brings important perspectives on healthy masculine embodiment, conscious partnership, and relational healing. Together, they will explore how healing can unfold through both the feminine and masculine within ourselves, as well as in the ways we relate to another.
Designed for both trauma survivors and healing practitioners, this training offers a compassionate, embodied roadmap for restoring safety, sovereignty, and vitality while developing a more integrative lens through which to understand and accompany healing.
3 Keys for Flourishing as a Sensitive Person
Intro to an Upcoming 7-Week Course
With Evelyn Rysdyk & Allie Knowlton
17 and 19 September 2026
Perhaps you sense the energy of people and places, receive intuitive impressions or premonitions, or simply feel things more deeply than others seem to. And perhaps, at some point, you learned to quiet your sensitivities in order to fit in. What if those very sensitivities are not something to overcome, but gifts you were born with?
Shamans Directory member Evelyn Rysdyk, together with her partner Allie Knowlton, invites you to a free live online gathering exploring how energetic and spiritual sensitivity can become a source of greater connection, confidence, balance, and vitality.
Drawing on more than 35 years of research and shamanic healing practice, Evelyn and Allie will share three essential keys for learning to work with your sensitivities and allow them to flourish.
Together, they will explore what it means to honor your sensitivity without apology, find community that supports your experience, and develop relationship with nonphysical allies, opening possibilities for a richer and more empowered way of moving through the world.
Whether you have long recognized yourself as sensitive or are just beginning to understand your intuitive gifts, this conversation offers an invitation to stop seeing your way of perceiving as “too much,” “strange,” or something you need to hide. Perhaps your sensitivity isn't a weakness, but a vital part of your medicine.
Their seven-week journey, Beyond Ordinary: Honoring Your Unique Sensitivities to Manifest More Balance, Joy, and Vitality, begins 06 October.
Journey Back to the Source of Knowing
Intro to an Upcoming 8-Week Course
With Christina Allen of Austin Shamanic Center
13 September 2026
In a world overflowing with information, we spend much of our lives living from the head up, analyzing, processing, and searching for answers, while the deeper forms of knowing carried in our bodies, instincts, intuition, and emotional intelligence can become quiet.
The truth is, we don't need more information. We need discernment. Wisdom. A way to listen more deeply.
Shamans Directory Ambassador Christina Allen invites you to explore an ancient system of knowledge that understands each of us as a deeply sensing being, capable of engaging with the world as conscious, living energy.
Drawing from teachings received through Master Paqos from the Inka Empire, Christina introduces a sophisticated Andean mystical tradition that offers another way of understanding our relationship with ourselves, one another, and the living world around us.
Together, you will explore what it means to be energetically sensitive, and how that sensitivity can become a source of discernment, connection, and power rather than fear.
This Introduction offers a doorway into Christina’s 8-Week Andean Mystical Training, beginning 26 September. Perhaps the invitation is not to learn something entirely new, but to remember a deeper way of knowing that has been waiting within you. Come step in.
A 13-Part Online Teaching Series
With Pampamesayoq Medicine Man Wilbert Salas Atasi
A Shamans Directory Offering Hosted by Mayumi Beckers
09 September – 21 October 2026
A sacred word can become a doorway. As we begin to understand what a word carries, we can approach it with greater intention, energy, embodiment, and respect. Within the Andean traditions, sacred words and expressions form part of a living relationship with Pachamama, the Apus, the elements, the ancestors, and the wider living Cosmos.
In this special online teaching series, Pampamesayoq Medicine Man Wilbert Salas Atasi invites us to explore sacred words, prayers, and expressions carried through the living traditions of the Andes. Together, we will discover their deeper meanings, symbolism, cosmology, ceremonial context, and use in prayer, healing, ceremony, and everyday practice.
Across 13 live teachings, Wilbert will share words and expressions connected with prayer, invocation and healing, Pachamama and the Apus, sacred places, animals and nature beings, ceremonial tools and offerings, songs and chants. Each class builds upon the previous one, allowing the teachings to unfold naturally. The final session will culminate in a Haywariquy offering, bringing together prayers and sacred expressions learned throughout the journey.
Your participation includes 13 live sessions, recordings, and learning materials for continued study and practice. Hosted by Mayumi Beckers, we warmly invite you to join us in discovering words that can become bridges between intention, prayer, relationship, and the sacred.

The Norse Mountain of Healing
A Three-Part ShamanPortal Wisdom Webinar
With Forest Witch Imelda Almqvist
08 September - 03 November 2026
People often assume that the Northern or Old Norse traditions are primarily concerned with male gods and heroes. Yet beneath the surface lies a rich and mysterious realm of feminine power.
At the heart of Norse cosmology stands Lyfjaberg, the Mountain of Healing, where the mysterious goddess Menglöð resides alongside her Nine Maidens, also known as the Nine Disir, powerful healers and compassionate ancestral feminine beings, each associated with their own gifts and specialisms.
The ancient Old Norse poem Fjölsvinnsmál, found in the Poetic Edda, tells of this extraordinary spiritual pilgrimage to the Mountain of Healing in search of healing and wholeness, especially for women who have run out of options and seek the mountain as a final resort. Climbing this sacred mountain can bring profound healing miracles, no matter how ill or "dis-eased" a person may be.
In this three-part online webinar series, Shamans Directory Ambassador, Teacher, Author, and Artist, Imelda Almqvist, hosted by Christian Thurow, will introduce participants to three of the Nine Maidens in each class. Together, you will explore their stories, healing qualities, and practical ways of beginning a relationship and apprenticeship with these powerful feminine beings.
Participants who feel called to continue may receive guidance for developing a longer-term relationship with these sacred healers.
All sessions will be recorded and available to ticket holders until 31 December 2026.
A 7-Week Journey with Maestra Grace Alvarez Sesma
Hosted by The Shift Network
Begins 02 September 2026
You are warmly invited to join curandera and cultural educator Maestra Grace Alvarez Sesma for a seven-week journey into ancestral healing, belonging, and the living relationship we share with those who came before us.
Every family carries stories. Some are remembered with pride; others were buried beneath generations of migration, survival, assimilation, displacement, and colonial change. Even when those stories are forgotten, their imprint can remain—shaping how we understand ourselves, where we belong, and the patterns and burdens we may unknowingly carry. Maestra Grace offers an Indigenous approach to ancestral healing that invites us to meet these histories with compassion rather than judgment, while remembering that our ancestors passed forward not only wounds, but extraordinary gifts of resilience, courage, wisdom, creativity, intuition, and the capacity to begin again.
Through guided visualizations, meditation, journaling, grounding practices, experiential exercises, and ancestral practices, you’ll create a living lineage map that reaches beyond genealogy to include land, culture, spirit, community, and chosen family. You’ll explore how migration, colonization, and historical disruption may have shaped your family story while learning to distinguish what you may no longer need to carry from the wisdom, strengths, traditions, and gifts that can support your life today.
Rooted in reciprocity, respect, and relationship, this work invites you to reconnect with ancestry without romanticizing the past or appropriating another culture’s traditions. And perhaps the deepest invitation is to look not only backward, but forward: To discover what you might carry forward to create your own legacy of healing, belonging, and strength for generations yet to come.
