Grace in Transition on October 28 Why Shamanism Now Radio Show with Shaman and Host Christina Pratt

Portland, OR, October 28, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Streaming live on the Co-Creator Radio Network on Tuesday, October 28, 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 tells listeners that grace in transition does not come easily to modern people who live in the climate-controlled illusion that they have mastered nature, wilderness, and the Unknown. In transition we are neither here nor there and as a result we are either losing or gaining energy. This is why in the transitional seasons of spring and fall we often experience erratic emotions, “spring colds”, and fall depressions. According to Pratt, how we attend to these transitions determines the quality of energy we bring to our engagement with life.

In this week’s episode of “Why Shamanism Now?” titled “Grace in Transition”, Pratt explores working with the seasons to draw the unique richness from each stage of the cycle of a year on earth. Each season is its own spirit. Akin to the spirits of the land, seasonal spirits have profound influence on us, regardless of our ignorance to their presence. Pratt suggests that to engage with the season spirits openly and honestly is to engage in simple elegance, rich blessings, and the refinement of presence.

Christina Pratt is a contemporary shaman specializing 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 book An Encyclopedia of Shamanism clearly discusses 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, 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.
