“Your Most Powerful Ally and Protection” is the Topic on the August 5 Episode of Why Shamanism Now?
On her radio show "Why Shamanism Now? A Practical Path to Authenticity,” teacher, author, and founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing Christina Pratt welcomes shaman Betsy Bergstrom back to the show to continue their discussion of shamanism and Heart Centered Shamanic Depossession.
Portland, OR, July 24, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Streaming live on the Voice America Network (www.voiceamerica.com) on Wednesday, August 5 at 2 pm Pacific time/5 pm Eastern time, on the show "Why Shamanism Now?", Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing founder Christina Pratt talks once again to Betsy Bergstrom, a shaman who specializes in unraveling thought-forms and curses to draw the energy and power from things that have previously bound us and to utilize that energy to revitalize our choices.
On this week’s show, Pratt and Bergstrom explore protection from a light and heart-centered perspective. Bergstrom shares how to compassionately clear what isn’t ours, allowing us to come out from under the shadows and connect with our most powerful Ally—ourselves. According to Bergstrom, with the help of compassionate beings, our inner Ally can find a framework and sense of continuity to feel safer and to function well within our world. Effective protection keeps us from scattered and ungrounded energy, fragmentation, and from allowing our energy to be used by others.
In this episode of “Why Shamanism Now?”, Pratt and Bergstrom share with listeners how heart-centered protection enables us to focus our energy and resources toward living our authentic life and bringing our unique gifts to the world.
Christina Pratt is an authentic, non-traditional contemporary shaman. In practice since 1990, she specializes in mending the soul and transforming the parts of life that feel impossible. A teacher of exceptional clarity, humor, and inspiration, Pratt brings the power of shamanism into the practical grasp of anyone willing to take responsibility for improving the quality of their life. Her well-received book, An Encyclopedia of Shamanism (Rosen), is an 800 page, two-volume set with over 750 in-depth entries that clearly discuss the basic concepts of shamanism, methods, and traditions of over 50 different shamanic peoples. Pratt is the founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing in Portland, OR, and New York, NY, creator of the original Foundations of Shamanism and Shamanic Healing course at the University of Minnesota, and a frequent and honored speaker for the American Holistic Medical Association.
Betsy Bergstrom is a full-time Shamanic Teacher and Practitioner who has studied with shamans and healers from many cultures. She is a graduate of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies 3-Year Program. She has been trained by a number of indigenous shamans and healers who have encouraged her and shared with her their wonderful teachings. She has worked in various fields of Alternative Healing for nearly 20 years. Her calling is to work in partnership with the Helping Spirits, to help the living and with the dead.
