What is Somatic Shamanism?

​

Somatic Shamanism is the integrating of Shamanic Counseling and Healing, Somatic Healing and Movement, and Trauma-informed Coaching. Shamanic healing is a practice rooted in ancient traditions that aims to restore balance and harmony by enabling the client to access altered states of consciousness that is conducive to healing, including working with spirit guides, the soul self, and Divine Intelligence. Shamanic counseling views individuals as interconnected beings, encompassing mind, body, and spirit, and seeks to restore balance and harmony within the whole person. In shamanism it is common practice to connect with the spiritual realm, often using techniques like drumming, chanting, and journeying. Trauma-informed coaching is sensitive to patterns in the body that is influenced by the subconscious mind. helps people reconnect with their body and gain insight into how their feelings and symptoms are connected as a basis in the mind-body relationship. 

 

This method is derived from Josephine's personal experience, working with others utilizing the individual modalities, and instigating her own healing journey. The integration of these modalities is what she is calling Somatic Shamanism, which is a form of integration addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of returning to balance and harmony in the mind-body system, while integrating and rooting into the soul consciousness.​

The spiritual world and material world are fundamentally connected.

The body is our greatest ally in the healing process, as it holds the wisdom and resources necessary for healing. ― Peter Levine

“All emotions, even those that are suppressed and unexpressed, have physical effects. Unexpressed emotions tend to stay in the body like small ticking time bombs—they are illnesses in incubation.”
― Marilyn Van M. Derbur

"Josephine is a gifted healer and mentor. I took the Soul-Wise sessions [now primarily considered an aspect of Shamanic Journeying and Energy Center Attunement] from her and found these sessions to be inspirational.

​

Josephine is a gentle guide that led me to experience my soul's essence. It was a very special moment for me when I felt the light around me and the peace it brought.

​

I highly recommend Josephine for spiritual guidance and look forward to taking more time with her in the future."  - Pat D.
