What do you do? What’s it like? What will happen? Those are the three most asked questions about my work.

The short answer is, it is as simple and as complicated as the issue needing to be worked on.

Here’s the long answer.

My client has been working on overcoming scarcity energy. First of all, I want to say that healing happens in layers. It is not linear. Therefore, it isn’t a ‘one and done’ sort of treatment, if you will. Think of it like cleaning a tall building with multiple floors. Except you don’t necessarily go floor by floor. Sometimes you clean in blocks of floors.

Most often people think of “scarcity mindset” and apply it to things like money, abundance and prosperity. But scarcity ENERGY is greater than that. Scarcity energy affects all those things, but it also affects (or is affected by) self-value, expectations, standing up for oneself, and trying new things, for example. It really affects almost every aspect of our lives.

Anyway, this client has made headway in releasing scarcity energy, but recently has felt a lack of motivation to move in any direction. In my sourcing I found this to be related to scarcity energy. So, I set off to do an illumination on the issue.

The illumination is the basis for all shamanic sessions. Every practitioner has a little (or big) difference in how this information presents itself through the illumination process. I did the illumination. The issue was found in her throat chakra. At which point I opened it, cleared it and allowed it to discharge.

There was a lot of crystallized energy as well as sludge in the chakra so I pulled that out. The client began to cough a little. I kept pulling stuff out.

At one point a very large piece of crystallized energy was being pulled out like a huge volcanic glass shard, but the shard was the size of a small sword. As I pulled that out, my client began to cough and choke to the point of almost vomiting.

I instructed her to blow out through her throat chakra to help clear the blockage that was causing the choking. When the coughing ceased I then continued to push the energy through to promote the healing.

When the chakra was clear I pulled down white light from my eighth chakra and filled the throat chakra with it. I then closed the chakra and gave it a good spin.

During this procedure I got a clear picture that there was a missing soul piece connected with this issue, so that’s what I did next; it’s important to note I had no intention of doing a soul retrieval upon the start. A soul retrieval is a process to locate and recover a piece of one’s soul that left during a time of trauma.

In the beginning of the retrieval process I am shown the source wound that needs healing (and is ready to heal), and the contract (belief) that has been in operation. The contract is then destroyed and the client then rewrites a new contract (either in session or afterwards).

In the case of this client, when looking at the source wound, I saw echo images of her everywhere – images of every time she had been silenced in one way or another. It was a lot like what you might see in a house of mirrors/fun house.

The contract that presented was “my voice doesn’t matter”. That contract was destroyed and a new contract was written.

The soul piece (or sometimes pieces) are then invited to return. Sometimes they come readily. Other times they need certain conditions to be met before they agree to return.

This client’s soul pieces came readily. Then I proceeded to go to the gifts room. This is a magical gift given to the client in order to help the healing. In this case, it was a pen.

This concludes the actual soul retrieval part. Upon returning to my sacred place, a small songbird landed upon my shoulder. A temporary animal spirit to help the client assimilate the new energy and use her voice for her highest good.

The soul pieces, the gift and the animal helper were all blown into her heart chakra to be integrated into the human being that is my client.

Afterwards, there is homework the client needs to do in order to ‘seal the deal’, if you will for the next seven days.

As a shaman we can only be as effective as our clients are willing to receive the healing.

In the course of my many years (decades actually) of energy healing work, I have had five individuals where no apparent benefit from the session took place.

1. Adult female: I felt the resistance and ended the session early. Upon asking her she said she was repeatedly praying to Jesus to protect her from evil.”
2. Adult female: I was unable to connect energetically and ended the session. The client denied any resistance or issue, but years later came back and admitted her resistance. Her subsequent sessions were amazing.
3. Adult male: This gentleman had ‘other intentions’ and I’ll leave it at that.
4. Adult female: I was having a hard time connecting, but persevered. Turns out this client had engaged in marijuana a day or two before and had a deep seated belief that she did not deserve healing and therefore self-sabotaged.
5. Adult female: This last and most recent person was very negative and really didn’t want to change. Every suggestion prior to the session was ‘yeah but…’ She said her mind was wandering during the session, but what she described to me was disassociation. She never returned for a subsequent session.

There is no set plan of services that a Shaman does. You can’t just call up and schedule a soul retrieval. The Shaman will communicate with their helpers and guides and follow whatever wisdom they present.

It is hard to say what will happen during your healing session, but I can say you will at least get out of it what you are willing to receive from it.

The more open to flow the Shaman and the client are the more powerful will be the healing.
