On this Journey we invite you to;

Be taken on an ancient exploration of the spirit world, seeking answers to the questions that concern us.

Each journey is accompanied by a rhythmic drumming. An optional sharing follows. Participants are encouraged to bring a pad or blanket to lie upon and something to cover the eyes. We suggest you bring pen and paper to record the journeys.

Before the Journey

In order to take such a journey you will need several things: An open mind A clear intention A blindfold A mental picture of an entrance to the earth you have seen at some time in your life.

The Shamanic Journey in Perspective: There are five conditions that will help you become a successful journeyer.

They are:

Let go of your need to control: Our experience is that this is difficult for most people to do in life, yet alone in preparation for a meditative process like journeying. If you are trying to orchestrate your own journey you will be paying too much attention to the details and not be able to get into the flow required to really experience the lower world.

Detach from outcomes: This is also challenging for many of us. There is no way we can predict the outcome of a particular journey, yet so often we try. While we may have a mental image of what will happen the experience never matches our picture. Release the image and enjoy the experience.

Trust the spirit helpers: A big help in letting go of your need to control and detaching from outcomes is to trust the spirit helpers. They will always orchestrate the perfect result for you. Whether you have an amazing experience in Technicolor, get held up in the tunnel, or don't experience any part of the journey at all, it is perfect for you at that time. As hard as it can be sometimes, trust that the spirits are giving you what you most need at that particular time.

Lighten up and enjoy the experience: Our experience is that when you take all this too seriously, the spirit helpers will find a way to lighten things up. They are notorious tricksters and will always help you find the humour of your own seriousness.

Leave your ego at the entrance: When you think you are the centre of the action, you are likely to miss the very important signals being given to you by the spirit helpers.
