Core Shamanism and The Foundation for Shamanic Studies

An Interview with Susan Mokelke

Susan Mokelke, J.D., describes the work of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies, which anthropologist Michael Harner founded with his wife, Sandra Harner. As its President, Susan works to bring the core shamanic practices Michael developed from his extensive travels and research to people interested in finding their connection to spiritual dimensions. The resulting access to one's compassionate helping spirits provides wisdom and guidance for those who seek to be of service to the world.
