"Individuals who are 'dispirited,' who have chronic illness or pain, or who have experienced trauma of various kinds in their lives may particularly benefit from shamanic healing."Definition of Concepts:
Soul loss, indicating a fracture of a person’s sense of wholeness, is often characterized as not feeling in one’s body. Soul retrieval brings back those soul essences that dissociated, often during trauma, restoring the individual’s sense of wholeness or well-being.
Power loss is characterized by feelings of helplessness and loss of power or energy. Power animal retrieval restores the individual’s connection with a spirit animal or teacher to help restore a sense of personal power.
Spiritual intrusion is characterized by pain, feelings that parts of the body are numb, and a sense of blackness or heaviness.
Extraction removes the heavy, negative energy from the individual.
Dispirited or low energy is characterized by an occasional awareness of other voices or negative energies felt in the spirit/body. Influence of ancestors or presence of non-living suffering beings may be interfering with the energy in an individual and are removed by depossession or psychopomp (helping a suffering being to go into the light).
