Since 2014: José and Lena Stevens of The Power Path. Their background is grounded in Huichol (Mexico) and Shipibo (South America) practice as well as cross-cultural indigenous practice, esoteric study, psychology, and other energy healing practices.

Since 2015: Fifteen trips to Peru to study with a family with Shipibo healers in the Amazon jungle. The core of my study in Peru has been a series of plant dietras – week-long intensives vcerme ines where we ingest a single (different) plant each time.

Also in Peru, several experiences with Don Fernando Silva in Cusco, a respected Hampicamayoc (plant master) with over 30 years of experience, specializing in Peruvian plant medicine and healing ceremonies.

A two-year Celtic shamanism training program with Tom Cowan and many other workshops and conversations with him over 15 years augmented by 25 years of reading and practice. My teaching often includes working with Celtic stories and healing techniques.

Several teachers from the Foundation for Shamanic Studies. This study has included Soul Retrieval with Sandra Ingerman and working with the Reindeer Spirit with Ailo Gaup (Sami/Norwegian).

Seminary training (M.A> in Theology) from United Seminary of the Twin Cities.
