This course is for established professionals and leaders who recognise that creating meaningful change requires more than strategic and analytical thinking. It is an invitation to widen your ways of knowing and open yourself to the sacred, so that you can live, work and lead from a deeper place.

​

The course introduces ancient shamanic practices as a way of widening how you know, perceive and respond. You will learn the sacred practice of shamanic journeying – a structured way to enter a non-ordinary state of awareness – and how to develop a practical relationship with your own spirit teachers. Together, these give you access to what Carl Jung called the collective unconscious, for deep insight, personal growth and guidance. The course is highly experiential, helping you transform unconscious patterns, embody your authentic self and become a more conscious catalyst for positive change.

​

The course gives you space to explore questions such as:

​

• What would it mean to work and lead from my whole self, including the spiritual?

• What guidance is available to me beyond my own thinking?

• Which unconscious patterns shape how I show up, and how might they change?

• How might I act differently if I truly experienced myself as part of a living, conscious and interconnected world?

 

The course provides 20 hours of professional development, with a certificate for your CPD records.

Who is this course for?

The course is for professionals and leaders working at all levels, including facilitators, coaches, executives, CEOs, entrepreneurs, academics, psychotherapists and healers. It is best suited to:

​

• established professionals, managers and organisational leaders ready for deep inner work

• people in positions of influence who recognise that authentic leadership requires engagement with sacred forms of intelligence, or something greater than themselves

• facilitators, coaches, psychotherapists and healers who want to support their own inner shifts and enrich the way they work with clients

• anyone committed to becoming a more conscious catalyst for positive and transformational change

 

No previous experience of shamanic practice is needed. What matters is curiosity, openness, a willingness to learn through experience, and an intuitive feeling that this course is right for you.

How the course works

The course is highly experiential. The emphasis is on helping you develop new ways of knowing and perceiving, and on exploring how this shapes the way you live, work and lead.

​

The course runs online over a long weekend. Sessions are live and highly interactive on Zoom, combining teaching, guided practice, small-group work and reflective dialogue. Between sessions you will complete practice-based homework, around 4 hours in total, to build confidence in the practices and connect them to your own work and life.
