Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman as they speak to those of you beginning your practice in shamanism. They share with you such helpful advice as how to ask an appropriate question to the spirits, challenges that come up with not asking the correct question, having a time out and just enjoying your spirit’s company. They also invite you to experience what surprises come up when you journey. T...

What we give energy we give life to. This is a well known shamanic teaching. But do we take time to reflect on the thoughts and energy coming from our mind that we are giving life to? How do we work consciously with our thoughts without going into a spiritual bypass? How do we be honest with ourselves and how we are truly feeling, but learn to create the right kind of energy with our thoughts that...

There is so much going on with the weather around the globe. We are seeing rising temperatures we have never seen and the storms, earthquakes, tornadoes, freezes, and the list goes on are getting stronger than has been seen before. We can’t really predict the weather anymore. Is this another wake up call for us? The pandemic forced us to start looking at how we could bring balance and harmony into...

Sandra Ingerman was recently brought into a controversy that occurred over Facebook where people starting judging which shamanic practice is more powerful. That actually is not even a fair discussion. For all cultures that practice shamanism have the same power as they work with the spirit of the land and helping spirits. Shamanic cultures all over the world have all been given different ways of w...

There are so many different spiritual practices we can engage in. Many people are drawn to working with Gurus and find that their life takes on a rich meaning, and they feel more power and support in their lives due to the communities they have entered. And there are those of us who really foster the practice of direct revelation where we become our own authority in our practices and how we live o...

In the Western world we have lived in a time where there are so many single mothers and fathers trying to survive in a world that keeps gets challenging on all levels. Many years ago we noticed how young adults were moving back into their parents’ home. Of course their parents were still stressed with their own financial and medical needs.   But in life people have always found ways to survive. An...

Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman have done a few shows on how to find your flow again in life after there has been so much turbulence. But when you follow the flow of any river there is constant movement and change. There are times you are riding the smoothest waves enjoying your time in the sunshine and the magic of life. And there are times the river moves into such turbulence you are trying t...

Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau  have been diligent over the years of the show encouraging you to go deep with your practices instead of surfing the waves of gathering more and more spiritual information that really doesn’t help in the end. Of course we can inspired by others’ voices. But living the work and going deep into the practices that you feel are meaningful to you are ways to shift out...

There is so much going on planetary right now. And we all want to help. People reach out to teachers asking for global ceremonies to be organized and performed. This of course has its place, and can be a powerful way to transmit helpful prayers to those caught in trauma or for those who died. There are so many ceremonies that can be done. And so many places on the Earth having extreme devastating...

Renee Baribeau shared how she is bringing through a new body of work in some of the writing she is doing that will eventually lead to another brilliant book from her. But she shared how she keeps getting lost in distractions. Sandra Ingerman shared how due to the stress of how much work she has that she has been finding herself losing focus and distractions start to take over her day.   Are you st...

Sandra recently noticed how her plants are growing more rapidly that normal. And then she noticed that some of her fruit trees budded throughout the winter even with frigid temperatures of zero. This led her to start sharing about this on Facebook page Shamans are Gardeners of Energy. Those who responded said that their plants indoors and outdoors are blossoming months before typical growth cycles...

Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau were asked to talk about this important and most complex topic of what is shaman illness. And this is a big topic. For shaman illness can be happening to one who is called by the spirits to be a shaman. And illness comes into their life until they say yes to the call. And then there is the preparation every shamanic practitioner needs to do to make sure they are...

In the modern world we tend to be gazers and onlookers of life. We like to go to beautiful places have wonderful experiences. But there is a difference between being an observer while we live our lives versus absorbing in the frequencies of the beauty we witness.   For example consider the difference between looking at the sun versus absorbing its healing rays into your body. Or seeing how beautif...

In the practice of shamanism it is understood that when we die we transcend back home to Source. But there are often situations where this transition needs some assistance. We humans live in what shamans call the Middle World which is Earth School and a place  of learning.  When we die the Middle world is no longer our home. It is understood and seen through journey work that some souls who suffer...

Many years ago Sandra Ingerman was working with a producer Mitchell Clute at Sounds True to create a Year of Ceremony program. During one of their conversations, Mitchell said the phrase “energetic signature”. For Sandra this phrase started an entire way of thinking about what energy we leave in the web of life. Or what Renee would say what footprint are we leaving on the Earth. Renee Baribeau and...

One of our listeners asked Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau to speak about how shamans perceive illnesses like fibromyalgia or chronic pain. It is important to understand that with the practice of shamanism we don’t treat labels we only treat people. And we are all different beings who have a variety of  issues that might be creating an illness. The shamans job is to ask the spirits for a diagno...

Humans and nature were meant to live in harmony. If we follow our true identity as a nature being then it only makes sense to pay attention to the changing phases and cycles of nature. For we cannot separate ourselves from the energetic changes happening to the Earth during the change in seasons. And when we do we find ourselves dealing with the issues so many are dealing with today – fear, anxiet...

It is always such a special time to watch and experience all of nature changing in accordance with the changing phases of the seasons. And in the Northern Hemisphere, we are flowing from fall into winter and in the Southern Hemisphere spring into summer. What a potent time to perform ceremonies to honor the changes that all of life is experiencing at this time. Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Inger...

Renee and Sandra were asked in an email to do a show on diet. But that is not really within the scope of topics appropriate for The Shamans Cave as we trust that people will learn how to trust their body’s intelligence on what food is healthy for them. But if you think about the energies we simply absorb and digest during the day you can see that there are other ways to perceive what we take in as...

Sandra and Renee have done multiple shows on the need to reach inside and find that inner smile and inner light you can share with others in a world that is so filled with stress right now. The general trend is that most people who have gone back fully into life are overwhelmed from all that happened.
