Do you ask yourself?.. Everyone wants freedom: to be free to live your own life in your own way, to do what you most want to do, to live out your creativity and to be everything you truly are...

Do you ever ask yourself these questions:

Is my life working?
Are my relationships all they could be?
Do I feel good about myself?
What do I really want from life?
Am I living my own truth or still following someone else’s rules?

The whole of our lives each of us is involved in a process of unfolding by which we become who we truly are.

Journey to Freedom provides the tools, techniques and inspiration needed to access authentic personal power and tap into a luminous experience of freedom in your life.

We see power as something external to us and have been taught not to trust our own values and not to honor our own spiritual experiences. Too often we get caught up in a desire to conform to the ideals projected onto us by society, our families, our peers. As a result we become limited in our freedom by emotional and spiritual baggage that we carry, which we would be much better off without.

We live in a world where information can travel around the globe at the touch of a button. These days, space travel does not make front page news. Yet we often feel powerless and uneasy – uncertain about who we are and where we are going. Traditional political, religious and moral structures no longer seem to provide answers for us.

We long to be free but often we are not even sure what that really means.

For the past few years I have been working with the ancient methodology for expanding consciousness known as shamanism. I have researched it, experimented with its techniques and practiced it. Now I teach it. Why?

Because I find it to be the most simple, practical and effective way to help myself and others make deep links with their own soul so that their outer and inner life seems to link up. This brings us real personal power and authenticity. It also helps us develop deep compassion for others – human plant, animal and the earth itself. The word shamanism is nothing more than a way of describing a near-universal methodology for accessing power and experiencing a sense of full connectedness with the world around us.

Like the brush strokes of a Zen painting, each human being is completely unique – like no one who ever has or ever will again grace the universe.

Yet encoded within our uniqueness is a universal magnificence we are meant to express as fully as possible each in our own way.

The tools and techniques of health – from detoxifying and rebuilding the body through food, exercise and meditation – play a vital part in this process of unfolding. So do leading edge techniques for shifting metabolic biochemistry through natural supplements and plant products. But to access our full power, to experience our full capacity for joy and freedom we also need to go deeper into our own being. We need to explore our own place within the order of the universe and to connect in rich ways with all that is sacred around us in both the seen and unseen world. I have found no simpler, more practical way of doing this than by shamanic journeying:

Once considered the province of an elect few, shamanic skills are easy for anyone to learn and simple to incorporate into every day life. You don’t have to wear feathers and ‘play Native American’ to make use of them. In fact shamanism is progressively being used by leaders in industry and government as a guide to decision making and management, by artists, writers and filmmakers wanting to enrich creativity, by healers seeking to intensify their effectiveness and by ordinary people seeking to expand their capacity for health, energy, awareness and fulfillment.

Shamanism brings us simple tools for connecting with the universe – both seen and unseen worlds – and moving beyond the limitations of rational thought into realms of sheer awareness.

Shamanism helps us forge powerful relationships with the world around us, rediscover our links with ancestral energies, power animals and helping spirits all of which can enable us progressively and efficiently to come into alignment with our own soul energy, our destiny and our place within the order of the universe. And besides all that, shamanism is a lot of fun.

...the more rich and fulfilling our lives grow...

...the more we are able to manifest our full potential for health, joy, creativity and power...

... the more potent and beautiful become the unique gifts we are able to bring into the world.

The shamanic process has been described by various cultures using different names. The name is not important. What is important is this:Each of us appears to have encoded within our genes the ability to access personal power for healing, wisdom, divination and creativity. What has been described as shamanic journeying is a collection of practices which most efficiently and effectively help us access this power. The history of such practices stretches back 30,000 to 40,000 years.

Journey to Freedom is a practical and highly personal course which marries the most ancient technique known for accessing power and expanding awareness - shamanism - together with tools from mythology, leading-edge physics, biology, systems theory and the rapidly developing science of consciousness itself to create a user-friendly, well-tested path to freedom. Journey to Freedom workshops offer you a technology for liberation. It is simple and practical. The skills you learn are like a rope you use to climb to the top of Freedom Mountain. Once you get there, you can throw the ropes away.
