Shamanic Training in Creativity™
Developed by Sandra Harner
Developed by Sandra Harner
Creativity is so ancient that it is at once fundamental and complex, even a driving force in our lives. Shamanism brings a fresh approach to Westerners for cultivating their creative potential. In this workshop, based on years of research, participants will have the opportunity to enhance their creativity through the practice of shamanic methods. Selected historical and anthropological examples will illustrate connections between shamanism and creative abilities, and a variety of specific shamanic exercises will be taught that participants can apply to their personal lives.

"I came away from it so rejuvenated, centered and with a path forward. What a gift! The participants were so filled with light, to be in their presence was an honor."
"I have no words to describe the whole experience, what a wonderful workshop! The journeys and writing exercises were so rich and meaningful, the sharing after was so great, and the last part, when we asked our spirits for a gift for the group was so moving and touching."
"You don't have to be artistic to obtain the benefits. Without creativity you can't manifest anything in your life. Also, while its focus isn't healing, I did find healing and it brought me closer to solving several life problems."
