A Personal Invitation from Sandra Ingerman

When many of us think of the word “shaman,” we think of a spiritual healer steeped in secret knowledge and mysterious powers. In truth, you don’t need to be a shaman to take shamanic journeys. This ancient practice is available to anyone wishing to enter a new state of awareness and open their perceptions to the spirit world.

Shamanism is the oldest spiritual practice—we have found evidence of the first shamans from over 40,000 years ago. I tell my students that shamanism has endured for so long because the practice gives you the tools to enter the spirit world yourself and discover your own power—there’s no dogma or outside authority involved. It’s truly the path of direct revelation.

“Not only can you change your own life, the changes in consciousness we can achieve together can transform the world as well.”

I have been teaching and writing books about shamanic journeying for almost 40 years now, and I believe it is an incredible tool to receive healing and guidance in our lives. With the help of our spirits, we can create a life filled with meaning, joy, and passion.

You are embraced by the love of the universe and the helping spirits. Open your heart to the love, wisdom, and healing they have to share. In doing this, not only can you change your own life, the changes in consciousness we can achieve together through shamanic journeying can transform the world as well.

With Experiencing the Shamanic Journey, I invite you to learn this transformative practice for healing, insight, and awakening and embark upon your own journey into the world of spirit today.

With gratitude,

Sandra Ingerman, MA
Author and teacher of shamanism

Frequently Asked Questions

The practice of shamanism puts you in direct contact with your spiritual allies and the divine aspect of your own being. It allows you to develop a relationship with the spiritual forces in your life—and to build a sense of trust in the wisdom, insight, and healing energy you receive.

The shamanic journey is the art of using rhythm and intention to enter an altered state of consciousness in order to connect with the spiritual dimension of reality. With Experiencing the Shamanic Journey, you are invited to learn this safe, reliable, and transformative technique from one of today’s most respected shamanic teachers: Sandra Ingerman.

The indigenous shamans were responsible for finding food, shelter, and medicine for their people. The techniques they developed have survived for millennia because they worked for our ancestors—just as they still can work for you today.

Shamanic practice has evolved. Thanks to teachers like Sandra Ingerman and many of the modern pioneers, researchers, and practitioners of shamanism, we now have access to contemporary versions of the most effective and powerful practices for healing, insight, and awakening.

In our fast-paced age, many of us are looking for a way to get back in touch with the natural world and the realms of spirit. The shamanic journey is one of the most reliable and potent tools we have for connecting to the unseen world, our spiritual allies, and the sacred nature of our true essence.

Yes! Sandra herself doesn’t experience visualizations when she shamanic journeys. Practitioners receive insights in many different ways, including sounds, a “felt sense,” or information download. The spirits want to communicate with you, and this course will help you find the way that works best for you to do so with them.

Absolutely! If this course fails to meet your expectations for any reason, simply contact Sounds True’s customer service for a full refund.
