Decision making

by 8hummingbirdway

Last week I had a session with a friend/client who had a decision to make about how to move forward in her career. She had a couple of exciting options and yet she felt paralyzed in moving forward.

She had worked with me before and knew how to journey. We talked for a while, discussing the beneficial aspects and challenges of each choice, and then she journeyed to ask what attitude or belief was preventing her from moving forward with her decision. She got an answer. When she went home, she began a process to release the attitude or belief. I also gave her some additional homework – 3 other journeys to do on her own.

She has the option of having a 2nd session with me – or of completing the release process on her own. (I am available to discuss her progress as well and we have talked since.)

I have thought several times in the past week that this process might be helpful to others in sorting out life’s pathways, It’s a process my teacher taught us as part of Soul Retrieval, and I have used it personally myself in overcoming obstacles. This is the first time I used it for another person outside of the SR process and it is a big success so far. My friend is delighted!

It was a soulful weekend

by 8hummingbirdway

I had a soulful time visiting my daughter in mid-October. She lives 3 hours away.

I always love my visits with her, but this time was different because F met me there. Until then our relationship consisted of phone and zoom conversations, and it felt important to meet. (see prior post about F here)

I’m so grateful my daughter made space for this meeting. F and I arrived on Thursday and I taught him to journey while everyone was at work. We worked outside in a couple of beautiful spots. F journeyed 4 times with increasing success on Thursday and Friday. (He still didn’t meet his power animal – though in the 4th journey he saw some distant owls who didn’t respond to him). In retrospect I think Owl is his power animal, but we shall see when we resume our work. We also shared a meal, went food shopping, and did a short hike on our own. We both felt that our friendship was cemented.

We also had 2 family campfires while F was there and had meals together with my daughter, her partner and my grown grandsons. F took his leave Friday night and continued his travels.

On Saturday I spent time with my daughter and her partner (the grandsons were off on adventures), I had tea with two old friends in the afternoon, and contributed to the making of dinner. I had especially wanted to see the quiet friend, and the other talkative one got invited by her. The 2 of us yapped it up, then I found a moment to offer soul retrieval to the quiet one and she is taking me up on it! I am so grateful. I have offered before. She is in need, and has been since I’ve known her. She is humble and gentle and true of heart.

I simply want to help. 

Being able to help feeds my soul.

I’m so grateful for the shamanic and practices I have learned which allow me to help.

Learn more about Soul Retrieval

by 8hummingbirdway

Soul Retrieval is the most desired shamanic process. If you have read the information I have on my Soul Retrieval page and still want to find out more about soul retrieval, I suggest you read Soul Retrieval: Mending the Fragmented Self by Sandra Ingerman. Sandra is one of the best teachers of shamanic topics of our time. She has developed the soul retrieval process as I know it, and this book is a delight to read. If you prefer to listen to her read it, the audible book is called The Soul Retrieval Journey, Seeing in the Dark. Sandra Ingerman has also written on many other shamanic topics – such as Earth-healing, journeying, ceremony, visioning, and personal healing of various sorts.

The Shaman vs the Shamanic Practitioner

Featured by 8hummingbirdway

In a tribal paradigm, the shaman (a word for the tribal healer in Siberia) is responsible for the well-being of the tribe as a whole, and also for the well-being of each member of the tribe. He or she can sustain physical well-being by setting a bone, healing a wound, relieving a fever, and so on. S/he can deliver a child into the world if something goes awry. This healer also journeys to sustain a deeper well being for tribe members – using soul retrieval, extraction, and other techniques, such as assisting others to connect with helping spirits who support the individual’s soul journey in this life. Upon death, the tribe’s healer ensures that the soul crosses over to the next world. The shaman also brings forth information – such as when and where to hunt, when to plant, and when to move to a seasonal home.

A shamanic practitioner is not a member of a tribe, and is not raised in a tribal environment. S/he studies and serves as a healer of the soul by journeying to helping spirits on behalf of others in a non-tribal culture, through the ancient practices of soul retrieval, clearing/extraction, and assisting the soul to cross over after death. A shamanic practitioner also teaches and assists others to journey to access knowledge and support in their own life journey.

A shamanic practitioner may also assist an individual to connect with and facilitate healing for their ancesters, navigate challenges with the spiritual world, and clear unsettling energies from one’s home or work space.

Annie is also a channeler of Lei Lei.

Welcome

Featured by 8hummingbirdway

My name is Annie.

It’s my desire to assist others – the ancient way, through shamanic healing …and also through channeling Lei Lei.

I believe that we all came here for a reason, and that in conforming to the expectations of the world around us, many of us lost sight of our reason for being, of our true selves.

We can recover.

In truth – the answers, the healing, and the wisdom lie within each of us.

Through shamanic healing, it’s possible to return to yourself, to love yourself, to know who you truly are and to rise up and step back onto the path you came here to walk.

Recieving channeled information and guidance can bring an immediate response to your questions, as well as ease, and a deeper understanding of your soul’s purpose. Channeled healing is focused on soul healing and has reverberations that impact all aspects of your being. Explore what Lei Lie offers.

At this time, we are all needed to take our place at the helm of our lives – to transform our reality to one that we can all share, in balance and love.

It would be an honor to help you reach this goal.

Private sessions for channeled healing + guidance and/or shamnaic healing are offered in person and remotely by phone, video conference, or email. Contact Annie to book a session, host a workshop, for sliding scale rates or to discuss barter arrangements.
