Shamanism does not require you to adhere to any one set of beliefs. It is a results-oriented practice in which you are called upon to be your own spiritual authority.

With The Power of Shamanism online summit, we gathered top teachers from around the world who are dedicated to sharing their practices and wisdom on “the path of direct revelation.”
