Learn how to use shamanism to help you heal, find fulfilment and reconnect with your life calling, undergo transformative journeys for healing and spiritual development; use dance as a tool for awakening and freedom; build an altar, create a sacred space and conduct ceremonies; and connect with spirit helpers and ancestors.

This workbook has been designed to accompany the book 'Shamanism and Spirituality in Therapeutic Practice'. It covers the practical applications of part II of the original book, offering a more structured and easy access to exercises and tools, without the in-depths background descriptions, case studies, references, examples and explanations, which the reader can find throughout the book. The workbook is not designed to replace the book 'Shamanism and Spirituality in Therapeutic Practice" as it neither offers the profound understanding of shamanism, which the reader will gain from reading the original book, nor provides the background knowledge outlined in the book that enables therapeutic professionals to incorporate shamanic approaches and tools into contemporary therapeutic practice. The tools and exercises in this workbook are designed for practical application, no matter if the reader wants to utilise them in therapeutic practice or for personal development, but it is advised to use them in conjunction with the appropriate chapters of the original book.

This book explains how psycho-spiritual indigenous traditions can be adjusted to offer practitioners a highly effective repertoire of insights and therapeutic tools. The underlying concepts and world views of shamanism are described along with practical guidelines and case studies detailing how to use them within the therapeutic process.
