What is shamanic yoga?

Shamanic Yoga is a blend of Shamanic practices and Native American wisdom combined with physical Yoga Asanas based in Ashtanga and Sivananda.

The ancient practice of yoga was originally designed to experience spiritual enlightenment or Samhadi. Samhadi is attaining the height of divine consciousness. In this state the concept of time and space is altogether different, you are completely in another world. Where the mind is still, at peace and one with all.

The translation of the word Yoga in the ancient Sanskrit language means “union” to “join” or to “yoke”. Describing the beauty and the integration that happens when one practices the physical asanas or Raja of yoga. Creating a greater and deeper connection to self through the union of mind body and soul.

Shamanism is a very similar practice in nature to yoga, as it is a practice that involves a practitioner reaching altered states of consciousness. In order to encounter and interact with the spirit world for wisdom. Walking forth into the unknown worlds, inside ourselves and in other worlds in order to retrieve important knowledge for healing and divination. Gaining a deeper understanding of the universe, its infinite energetic structure, our selves and the part that we play in it. Shamanism and yoga are beautiful tools we can to use to connect to ourselves on a much deeper level. Therefore, joining and dancing together so beautifully.
