Shamanic Course beginning this month

Shamanic Path to Creativity

For years I have worked with a nature based ceremony. Some may call it shamanism, but I do not. Actually, I don’t even like using that word, because it comes from other cultures. Alchemy is a better word considering my family heritage and culture. I believe in going within, discovering the stuff that keeps me from expressing my True Self, and through different techniques, transforming all that stuff that weighs me down in life, and transforming it into gold or light.

Growing up I was told that becoming an artist wasn’t the best idea. “Try to find another way to make a living.” I did everything I could to shun this path for years, moving from job to job, and being completely miserable in all of them until I finally surrendered to my passion. However, discovering my passion was just the beginning, and it is a journey that I pray I will be on for the rest of my life.

With this new excitement, I began to paint and show, but I kept running into more and more inner roadblocks. I was my worst enemy. People may have liked my work, but I never heard any of it. When I painted, I was always guided by Spirit. However, outside of that, my doubts were ruling the roost.

This is when, on a journey, I was guided to a new place…my Inner Counsel. My times spent with this Inner Counsel transformed my life. We all have these inner councils…they are different aspects of our ego that speak to us…the council says those things that convince us to not take a risk, to wait until everything is perfect, that you can never be as good as anyone else, or that voice that is sure everyone is talking about what a fool you are making of yourself….this is your Inner Council…the Council of Doubts and Fears. The council that makes sure you stay exactly where you are right now. This council of fears make all of your choices, make all of the decisions, and often push away what is good for your life.

Well, I wanted a different Inner Council. I wanted one that is empowered, proactive, creative, imaginative, supportive, adventurous, and passionate. After several years of work, I am ready to teach these alchemical tools to others.

That is what this class is all about….through different techniques, we will create the best tools for you that will help you deal with any problem, that will help you walk through all of those self-imposed roadblocks or imposed by others, help you make choices from an empowered place, and allow you to start creating your life. Some of the things we will learn during the three month course are:

- How to journey

- How to meet your Allies

- Introduction to Soul Retrieval

- Meeting Your Inner Counsel

- Alchemical ways of transforming our fears into our strengths

- Introduction to Ceremony

- Alchemy/Healing Meditations



I will create a private e-mail list for the class where all of the students can share, and where I can post meditations/lessons/thoughts for you to work with. We will meet once a week on-line where I will guide you through your lesson for the week. You will be partnered up with another student from the class for support. We will touch base privately on-line or through e-mail once a week (or more if needed), so I can offer you private instruction and support. Full participation is required for this class, so if you think that you can’t commit to this, maybe wait for another time to try it out. The class costs $60 a month, and I can accept a payment of $30 every two weeks. If you wish to pay for everything up front, you will receive a 10% discount. I can accept payment through Paypal, or through my own merchant account. I accept Visa/MasterCard and American Express. You can also pay me with money orders…whatever works the best for you.


Like I said, this is a three month course that will begin in two weeks. The class size is limited, so if you have any questions, please contact me at istazi@reenchantedearth.com. I can answer any and all of your questions, and I can send you my references.


We will not borrow from anyone else’s culture. Instead, you will connect with the roots of your own heritage.
