The Shamans Cave

We are in such intense times. And obviously no one is privy to how long our life will be. There are so many stages in one's life’s journey. There is a time to be an activist if this calls to you. There is a time to meditate and transmit vibrations of life and light that change you and the collective. In this show Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman talk about finding things that bring us back...

Both Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau have had the experience of getting caught in the undertow, a current below the surface, while swimming in the ocean. We talk about nature, nature’s cycles, the elements, the cycles of seasons, winds, rain, sun, and the list goes on. But no one talks about the undertow. In this show Renee and Sandra do. If you don’t know about undertow currents and how metaph...

Nature is our healing balm. But as humans instead of really engaging with other nature beings and nature itself we often watch nature as if we are watching a movie. This really disconnects us from life itself but also keeps us from truly tapping into the magic that shamans have known and worked with for tens of thousands of years. We have choices when we perceive the world around us. And unfortuna...

One of our listeners asked us to talk to anguish. She was very clear that anguish is different than anger. And Renee Baribeau explains this well. People are reacting to issues around censorship, division, manipulation by governments. How do we handle our anguish in healthy ways. Listen to Renee and Sandra Ingerman as we discuss this important topic. Renee leads a fabulous wind whistling exercise t...

The planetary energies seem to be shifting in a variety of ways. We have our issues with the Covid, climate change, and a wealth of other challenges. So much of the change that needs to happen is by people really standing up together. But one of the challenges of this is we are overpopulated and people are very divided. This has been a big issue for Sandra Ingerman as she has been an activist but...

Both Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau love to perform ceremonies around important times of change. We are entering into the time of greeting solstice. We will do a series where you can connect deeply with the elements within so you can feel first hand how the elements are affecting and moving your body during this time of seasonal change. We are all unique beings. And it is important to honor ho...

Renee and Sandra have been asked to do shows on fear of the unknown. Over the years of discussions on the Shamans Cave we covered a lot of this topic. Although the unknown cannot really be talked about for obvious reasons. Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman start with a different perception of the unknown. And then they find that their conversation just flowed into multiple topics, but if you list...

Shamanism is an the first universal spiritual practice. WE know the practice dates back tens of thousands of years. A practice that can maintain such a strong presence in the world obviously has a lot of power to be in service to all of life. Renee and Sandra talk about how shamans treat illness classically, and then they speak about how shamanism is changing and evolving. Join us as we plant new...

We have all been through a lot these last years. The Covid really put a stop to life. And now some of the doors are opening up to performing normal activities again. Those of you who have started to be able to get together with others, eat out, travel, and so on might feel like you stepped into an alternate reality. Renee and Sandra talk about how big a change we all made and now we are facing new...

We live in a culture that teaches us at a very young age that it is better to give than to receive. And this is creating a lack of boundaries with people who never learned how to set boundaries in the first place. If we don’t keep a strong boundary it leaves us vulnerable on so many levels and puts us into a place of imbalance. Renee and Sandra address this important issue. They also speak to a qu...

We just celebrated Mother’s Day. During this time Renee’s mother was in the hospital and quite ill. She realized how little time all of us have to communicate what is important to share with those who might be getting ready to leave this life. Grief has its own time and its own process. And the process can’t be rushed. But entertain the possibility that we can create a lot of healing by saying wha...

Throughout our many lifetimes cycles are always changing. The seasons and stars change. Shamanic cultures marked time by watching the changing cycles. The new changing cycles meant important work was meant to be done. Ceremonies were performed to ask for balance and healing and the spirits in the divine realms listened to all the prayers and answered how they could. Chants and altars changed to ma...

We have been through quite the time with the Covid circling the Earth bringing so many teachings, grief, blessings, and opportunities for change. Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman talk about how people are gravitating away from noisy and stress filled lives. There is the shadow side of not having the freedom to go out and enjoy all our activities. But now that people have experienced a slower and...

One of our listeners wrote in a fascinating topic. He asked us to address both the pros and cons of worry and fear. Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau started to share stories from their own lives and practices that bring some very meaningful and thoughtful ideas in to address the topic. Support the show

Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau have talked about in past shows the need to stay present. Sandra was sharing how she got impacted by some news and that this brought her back to the need to stay present rather than worry about the future. In this way she could be ready to receive important messages and omens. Renee brought in her wisdom to this conversation. Renee also talked about the power of...

Throughout history, local societies have been trying to control people so that people conform. We all know this. History shows such brutal behavior towards those who practiced forms of direct revelation. Shamans, mystics, witches were imprisoned, tortured, and killed. Do we hold the memory of this? And when we enter into practices such as direct revelation do we fear for our safety and our sanity....

In this show, Renee and Sandra respond to a listener’s request to learn shamanic ways of being around people who are toxic, angry, rage, meanness but in denial about it. This is such an important topic, especially how triggered people are right now. People might have a smile on their face but their anger is building inside leading to a toxic field of energy around them. Sandra Ingerman and Renee B...

Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau talk about the changing cycles in our collective. Renee speaks about big over reaching cycles that happen between eras on the planet and the need to do quite a lot of personal work. Sandra addresses seasonal shifts and the requirement to purify to be ready for the new seeds of change to be planted and nurtured. This is a beautiful show where Renee and Sandra’s te...

For eons, the planet has been going through extreme changes. But we are here now. Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau talk about the need to get prepared for taking care of oneself on all levels during extreme changes on the planet. Sandra lost her electricity and the show recording had to be delayed. But when Sandra could not find a way to get warm or something to eat this felt like a timely topic...

As above so below is an ancient teaching that offers us an opportunity to change our lives by understanding our inner state of consciousness creates our reality. We tend to feed the thoughts, words, and dreams we don’t want to see manifest on this plane of existence. How do we now fill our consciousness with beautiful images, textures, feelings, and sounds? The ancient ones taught our perception c...

Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman for this most interesting show on how we carry sacred contracts we made even before we were born.

Renee Baribeau did a beautiful opening lecture to start us off. She really was able to speak to some core issues on political levels that concern all of us. We continued the conversation as Sandra Ingerman shared not much has changed since she was a child and the solution that people are missing is first we must grow from within and find our own inner peace. With the way of the world living in the...
