Part 2 of “Why Are We Afraid to Live Well?” on November 5 “Why Shamanism Now?” with Christina Pratt

Portland, OR, November 04, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Streaming live on the Co-Creator Radio Network on Tuesday, November 5, at 11am Pacific/2pm Eastern on "Why Shamanism Now? A Practical Path to Authenticity,” shaman and founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing Christina Pratt continues the conversation started in last week’s episode of the same title by telling listeners that we must first change what we want if we are to release our fears of living well. We must decide that we want the path of our soul or our destiny more than we want to fulfill the roles that define who we are and who we should be. The good wife, good provider, perfect child, excellent lover, good girl, bad boy—whatever the role is, it’s something that we have learned to do to survive. According to Pratt, fear-based survival roles are never big enough or wholehearted enough for real life.

In this episode of “Why Shamanism Now?” titled “Why Are We Afraid to Live Well? Part 2” as she continues to explore a shamanic approach to learning to listen to your soul in ways essential to cultivating fearlessness and passion for a life lived well. Pratt tells listeners that just because your culture has failed you doesn’t mean you need to continue to fail yourself.
