The Magic of Shamanism

The Magic of Shamanism is designed to meet the needs of a range of readers. It issuitable for people who know nothing about shamanism and are interested in learning more, as well as for those with a basic grounding in the subject who wish to gain a deeper and richer understanding of its scope and use in therapeutic practice. It also aims to meet the needs of therapists wishing to broaden their horizons to a new, yet ancient, form of therapy that is capable of astonishing results within professional practice. Shamanism is humanity's oldest healing and spiritual practice. Although, as our world started to modernize, shamanic practices began to fade away, more recently, shamanism has reclaimed its place in the western world as a spiritual and therapeutic practice. The book examines theory and practice, and contains numerous case studies to illustrate the multiple aspects of shamanistic therapy and counselling. It covers the history of shamanism, and examines it from a western as well as a world perspective. Arvick Baghramian argues that through shamanic journeying people are able to effectively connect with their own resources, wisdom and power, and obtain a clearer understanding of themselves and their lives. By drawing parallels between the practice of shamanic counselling and western psychotherapy, shamanism is revealed as a powerful practice which empowers the person seeking help to find their own solutions to their presenting problems. The Magic of Shamanism is not written by one person. It is coloured with the words of the spirit teachers as well as those of the many people whose stories are presented in it, and whose lives and souls were deeply touched and changed by shamanism. The Magic of Shamanism is a welcome and valuable addition to the relatively sparse literature on modern shamanistic theory and practice. this
