Why Is Shamanism Considered a Healing Path?

In this episode of Modern Sages, Candace and Jenn share an inspired conversation about why Shamanism is known as one of the most profound healing paths on Earth.

Together, they explore what Shamanism truly is — not a religion, but a way of living in right relationship with life itself. It’s an ancient path that honors the interconnectedness of all things — seen and unseen — and reminds us that healing is both personal and collective.

They discuss soul contracts, miracles of healing, and the transformative experiences they’ve witnessed through journey work, ceremony, and energy medicine. Each story is a testament to the power of remembering that healing doesn’t come from the shaman — it moves through Spirit, in partnership with the one who is ready to heal.

 At its core, Shamanism teaches us that illness — whether physical, emotional, or spiritual — is a call to return to wholeness. When we remember our connection to Spirit, to the Earth, and to the wisdom within, true healing begins. Candace and Jenn hope this conversation empowers you to see that there is so much more available — that deep, soul-level healing is not reserved for a few, but accessible to all who feel the call.

What Is Shamanism?

Shamanism is an earth-based spiritual practice found in cultures around the world. It centers on the belief that everything — people, plants, animals, elements — carries Spirit and energy. Through ceremony, journeying, and communion with the unseen realms, shamans bring healing, guidance, and balance to their communities.

It is a path of remembering, of awakening to the truth that we are never separate from the sacred.

Why Is Shamanism Important Today?

In our modern world, many have become disconnected from nature, intuition, and Spirit. Shamanism offers a path back — one that unites ancient wisdom with present awareness.

It teaches us how to:

  • Listen to the language of the soul

  • Heal through ceremony and intention

  • Walk in balance with the Earth and elements

  • Remember that healing is a sacred co-creation with Spirit

This is the heart of the Modern Sages path — to live the Beauty Way, to walk awake, and to bring the sacred into the ordinary.
