Shamanic Energy
Cord-Cutting Training
In-Person or via Zoom

Sunday, January 7, 2024 

OR
Sunday, February 4, 2024

10 AM-4 PM PM, (EST)

Energy cord-cutting is a common, traditional practice in cross-cultural shamanism. However, it seemed to me that the simple technique I was taught fell short of providing all that it was capable of. Throughout the years, I explored and experimented and have developed a proven, more thorough technique by combining different modalities and experiences. This ritual goes beyond the traditional ritual of releasing a former lover, partner, or relationship.

By applying what I’ve learned in my 40 years of practice as a intuitive reader, spiritual counselor, hypnotherapist, and shamanic practitioner, I have found the outcome to be highly effective and extremely powerful. I am often asked to perform this ritual on energy workers, body workers, therapists and other mental health professionals, those in the medical profession, those in helping and healing roles, and their clients. The feedback is remarkable; some results present themselves immediately and some unfold over time.

By request, I am offering training in this practice.

Energy cords are created through interactions with others, or may passed through ancestral lineage, or manifested by limiting thoughts. Sometimes they are present with our knowledge or sometimes without our awareness. It should be noted that not all energy cords are harmful; some are much-needed reminders of interactions which created powerful learning experiences. Sometimes our light/energy cords become entangled and through the ritual of cord-cutting, unhealthy ties can be released, sending them back to their origin with love.

In this all-day workshop, you will personally experience the process,  perform it on  class participants, and learn how to offer it to others in your life. This intensive, comprehensivecourse is for those in the helping or healing fields and ANYONE wishing to be of service to others. It can also be performed on oneself.

In this training, you will:

• Recognize when cord-cutting is appropriate
• Identify cords of harm
• Use words as energetic vibrations
• Explore the role of ancestry
• Release cords and energies of harm
• Reclaim positive, healing energies
• Learn energy field sealing/cauterizing
• Positively impact both those in spirit and those on the earth plane
• Learn how to utilize your previous trainings and experiences in this process (energy work, massage/body work, intuitive readings, hypnosis, psychotherapy, counseling, etc.)

Please bring a journal or notebook, a stone with a pointed end and which fits comfortably in your hand, and a stick which has a knife-like shape.

If you would like to use a crystal for your cord-cutting practice, you may bring one which will be dedicated solely for this purpose. Those on Zoom, please have these items ready.

Lunch will be provided to in-person participants; please bring a refillable mug. Zoom participants will provide their own lunch.

Kid’s Magical Energy Clearing Ceremony

with Joyce St. Germaine, M. Ed., CHt., RYT-200
Wednesday, March 24, 6:30-7:30 PM via ZOOM

Children are extremely sensitive to the energies and events happening at  home, school, and in the world around them. The events of the past year have greatly impacted our children on all levels, in ways we could never have imagined. With the promise of brighter days ahead, we can help children of all ages to release those feelings and habits which are making them feel unhappy, frustrated, impatient, or struggling. Then, those energies may be reclaimed and used for joy, confidence, serenity, optimism, creativity, playfulness, whatever they wish. We can help our children to rebalance and thrive!

This ceremony is similar to a shamanic cord-cutting ceremony and is completely appropriate for children of all ages. I’ll combine my experience as a Certified Shamanic Practitioner/Certified Shapeshifting Practitioner and Art Teacher (K-12) for this event!

After receiving a thorough explanation of the process, parents will assist their child(ren) to identify and write a statement of those things they would like to release from their energy fields and what they would like to reclaim. Families with more than one child will write a combined statement on behalf of the family.

Children will love participating in the ceremony and be mesmerized by the magical, multicolored sword I’ll be using to clear their energy fields! It’s actually made of Titanium-Coated Quartz Crystal and is believed to enhance strength, focus, confidence, and joy.

We will end with a lighthearted sound infusion of love!

$10 per family
If this presents a hardship, please join as my guest.

Second Wednesday of Every Month

For most classes, you will need your journal or notebook and (optional) pendulum and clear quartz crystal. To increase your receptivity, it is advisable to eat a light dinner before class rather than a dense, heavy meal.

In this study group, you will be introduced to new topics and review previous topics. Our goal is to grow, explore, experiment, unfold, and blossom, both individually and as a group. Everyone has wonderful gifts, ready to be developed, to contribute to the well being of all. In order to be of service to others, professionally or personally, we must practice self-care. Let this be something you do just for YOU!
There is a very strong connection between spiritual growth and psychic development. Every session starts with a positive, light-filling exercise and includes topics such as spirit guides, palmistry, oracle cards, pendulums, energy healing, etc..Reclaim your intuitive gifts, assist others and live life more joyfully.

Please have a journal or notebook, pendulum or something similar, and a clear quartz crystal in you have one. We often use Soul Cards, Decks 1 & 2 by Deborah Koff-Chapin. (Amazon offers them at a reduced price.) It is not necessary to have them unless you wish to practice on your own.

It is helpful to gradually create a sacred bag or box to keep and carry your crystal, pendulum, journal, special personal object, and small cloth or mat. If you are attending in-person, please show your earth love by bringing a refillable water bottle for the water dispenser and/or mug for our complementary teas. There will be paper cups available as well.

GOOD TO KNOW: Seating choices are folding chairs or back-jacks. We will sometimes meet outside around the fire pit and waterfall. Bring a jacket or sweater or wrap if desired. The only step is the short one at the sliding glass door. The restroom is also on the ground floor.

SHAMANIC STUDIES

Monthly Study Group

In-Person and Zoom

Third Wednesday of Every Month

6:30-8:30 PM

Shamanism is the oldest known spiritual practice, dating back 60,000 to 100,000 years. It is practiced in all cultures, where shamans are sometimes known as medicine men or women. Based on the belief that the world is which we exist is merely an illusion, shamans strive to access the non-ordinary reality, divided into the Upper World, Lower World and Middle World. Access is gained via the shamanic journey, usually under the influence of drums, rattles or other instruments. These instruments are generally percussion instruments used to create sonics that vibrate at four beats per second. This beat guides the journey into theta brainwave activity, known to stimulate creative and spiritual experiences. These experiences foster deep, sacred connections and relationships with “All That Is”.

In this monthly study group, you will develop an understanding of cross-cultural shamanism and become adept at journeying as you work with animal and spirit helpers, and ancestral spirits as well as elemental energies. Usually, a journey begins with a sacred smudging ceremony to honor the elements of earth, air, fire, and water. In addition, smudging is a personal and group declaration that each person has come to the ceremony in a good and kind way, with an open heart, and with respect for the teachings. Then the spirits of the seven directions are welcomed and invited to share their teachings and influences. These seven directions are the North, East, South, West, Above, Below, and Within.

Teachings from various shamanic traditions will be explored and traditional and non-traditional approaches will be introduced. Native American, Australian, Ancient Egyptian, Tibetan, Mayan, and Central and South American shamanic teachings and practices will be explored. These study group is appropriate for any level of experience. All dedicated and compassionate people who wish to initiate positive change in the world are welcome. It should be clearly understood that shamanism is not a religion but rather an all inclusive spiritual practice. You will also participate in various shamanic ceremonies, often around our fire pit and waterfall. Sometimes, when there are specific needs, we offer group healing energies to beings and places struggling with natural or man-made disasters around the world. We will focus on healing and restoring balance to self, community, and the planet. As we work together to create and utilize community energy, you will learn group and individual healing techniques.

Please bring a notebook, eye covering, drum or rattle if you have one, a feather, and a fist sized rock. (There are many drums and rattles for sharing.) $25 ($ 20 for elders over 65, veterans and full time students)
You must preregister to reserve your space if you will be attending for the first time.

This group meets on the third Wednesday of every month unless otherwise noted.
