What we’re about
Shamanic learning is experiential. Only when you have experience do you really have intelligent questions and insights based on a direct encounter with reality. In the West, however, we emphasize talking and explaining first; then maybe have an experience that validates what we decide is real.
This group is about learning and experiencing the powerful potential of shamanic techniques and rituals that can be practiced in everyday life. We encourage you to join us, to experience shamanic practice first-hand, and then to test what you learn in your everyday life. This is the way to incorporate spirit guidance and wisdom.
The group meets several times a month for drum journeys, trance practices, workshops, and retreats. This group does not use or advocate the use of psychogenic substances.
The core of this group has been meeting regularly since 2003, but everyone of all experience levels is welcome. As an established group, our circles are supportive, high-energy, and often astounding in content.
We meet weekly for explorations in shamanic journeying, healing ritual, music and movement, and other practices. There is something happening every week! Membership in this group is free. We do ask for a contribution of $10 per person to cover time and space rental for meetings.

An Important Note About Teacher Plants and Other Substances
As expressed above, this group does not advocate the use of psychogenic substances in any of our events. The reason for this is that the journey work we do is inherently trance-inducing and may be harmful to the person under the influence of such substances. In addition, such use generally is disruptive to the energy of the circle, as well as distracting to other participants.
Therefore, if someone attends any event under the influence of mind-altering drugs or other substances, they will be asked to leave. Repeated violations may result in the person being banned from the group.

Attitude of Gratitude Shamanic Circle
Hosted by John BurgessIn our Circle tonight, we will explore Gratitude as more than a feeling, but as a way of being —a bridge that connects us to the Earth, to the flow of life, and each other
“ An attitude of gratitude will have far greater reach than any material expenditure or investment in any marketplace! “
“ Once the heart opens in appreciation and gratitude, pathways of connection between the individual, personal heart, and the infinite heart of the One can flow more openly and bless all of creation on levels that the human mind cannot yet understand.”
“ Be simple in your stance, be open in your dance, graceful in your speech, and be overflowing in gratitude and compassion, and then watch the flow of Grace unfold before your eyes.”
“ Once you touch the true seat of gratitude and feel the essence of that vibration in the core of your heart, know that you are touching and feeling one flavor of the breath and heartbeat of Spirit, that is inseparable from the core of who you really are! “
“Quiet your mind, open your heart, and melt into the arms of the embrace of this infinite love sitting at the center of your Inner Heart.”
“ Know that this is your birthright, your unwavering gift from God, and your treasure to share openly in your world, and with all beings, and the Universe. For when you do, the Heavens rejoice! “

----------This Circle is for anyone interested in shamanic practice. Shamanism is not a religion or a dogma. It is not dependent on any particular organizational structure or belief system, but is a practical world view based on ancient understanding of the relationships between humans and nature or Spirit. The shamanic perspective on life and living is extremely relevant to the challenges and concerns of our modern world and ordinary life experiences, and is compatible with all religious and spiritual beliefs.

The Shamanic Journey is a practice to reach in and touch, communicate and gain insight from an "other side". Journeying can connect you with spirit animals, ancestors and guides. It can also allow you to visit strange and not-so-strange places and discover new perspectives providing answers to your most pressing questions and needs.

If you are unfamiliar with Zoom, when you click on the link, you will be directed to download the free (and safe) Zoom application. It works on iPhones, Android, tablets, and computers. (You might do this ahead of time in case you encounter installation issues, which happens sometimes.) When you log in, your video and audio will be turned off. We would love to see you, though, so you can choose to turn your video on! Please leave your audio off unless you want to speak or ask a question. That reduces distracting background noise.
We hope that you are doing well. Please remember to rest and take care of yourself, and to be kind to others. We will all come through this working together.
