Studies in Shamanic Chinese Medicine

Course Overview

“The more energy or life force you can awaken and cultivate in your body, the greater your capacity to feel consciousness” (John Wineland, Facebook page).  One also builds or frees their life force to work for them, increasing vitality and health on all levels.

With an increased awareness in life force and energy comes a greater sensitivity to all forms of energy.  This introductory course in Shamanic Chinese Medicine will allow intuitive powers to strengthen, and with regular practice of qigong exercises, breathwork and meditation, one will begin the process of purifying the body of lower energy vibrations and building life force energy, or Qi.   Through the process, one will become more conscious of one’s own energy, the energy in others, and all the subtle realms of energy that surround us that can impact our health and wellness.   

Shamanic Chinese medicine is rooted in the practices of the shamans of ancient China. This secret knowledge was handed down through lineages and the information was vigorously guarded; it has only recently been shared with the Western world.  The foundational metaphysical teachings of this knowledge are embedded in, and cannot be separated from, the Chinese/eastern culture. This foundational knowledge of Qi, or energy, forms the basis of all Chinese medicine healing practices.  Its history extends back thousands of years.

This program is an introduction to Shamanic Chinese Medicine. It is offered through 4 consecutive modules, each 38 hours in duration.  Each module is taught over two weekends (~ one seminar per month), and includes a combination of qigong history and theory, and opportunities to practice, feel, and apply the theory. There will be opportunities to practice what one is learning through conducting in-person as well as distance healing sessions (with people, animals), and sharing exercises with family, friends, and other students.  

Note: we reserve the right to change the format of the program (in-person or online) should the need arise.  It is currently being taught so one weekend is in-person, and one is online.

Learning to Channel and Mediumship

Course Outline

Channeling is a skill that anyone can develop to open one’s mind to energies that exist but are not visible to the naked eye, ranging from those of our dearly departed to the higher and finer frequencies of Beings of Light, Angels and Guides, as well as our highest self – our Soul. 

One can use this skill to connect with loved ones who have passed (mediumship), or with the highest frequencies of love, wisdom and beauty available to us. 

“Opening to Channel:  How to Connect with Your Guide” by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer

  • what channeling is, and how it is useful to you
  • a process to connect with your Highest Self, and/or a Guide(s)
  • optimal physical postures for channeling
  • how to achieve a trance state
  • how to hold a focus
  • how to attune to the Life-Force Energy of the plant and mineral realms
  • how to mentally connect with your Highest Self, and/or your Guide(s)
  • how to verbally channel your Highest Self, and/or your Guide(s)

Learn how to communicate with, and assist if needed, people who have transitioned out of physical form.  Some will come with messages for loved one, and others may need help moving on.

Take this course if you want to learn how to communicate with loved ones who have passed on, and/or if you find yourself in contact with earth-bound entities through your work.

Mediumship is the skill of communicating with those who have passed.  They resonate at a lower-frequency than Guides or Beings of Light.  You will need to know how to tune in to the invisible realms, and may need the assistance of your Guides to know how to communicate with, and/or assist, them.  This work is very rewarding, as it is usually accompanied by wonderful healing for all those involved.

Enrol In Mediumship

Using the awareness skills gained through the channeling courses, learn how to communicate with friends and loved ones who have transitioned from physical reality into another plane of existence.  Learn how to assist those who passed, but have not fully transitioned (also known as earth-bound entities), to fully cross over to continue their soul journey.  

Caroline has many years of experience connecting clients with loved ones who have passed, and in assisting earth-bound entities to move on. 

Course Date Level 2: to be determined; *must have completed Level 1 and 2 Channeling courses

Learning to Channel higher wisdom is beneficial for all who are on a spiritual path – to receive guidance for creating their highest purpose, knowing one’s Highest Self (one’s Soul), and being in harmony with one’s Soul, and with all life.  Learn how to open to higher thoughts and how to live and act in ways that are more joyful and harmonious.  The Learning to Channel course will assist you to bring your awareness to the higher energies that are always available to serve us! As you become “lighter”, you benefit yourself and all those around you.  Anyone can learn to channel – what is required is a sincere desire to connect with one’s guide(s) and a commitment to maintaining and strengthening this connection.

If one is a healer or teacher, Level 2 Channeling skills will allow one to channel the Highest Beings (Deities, Masters, Light Beings), animal spirits or guides, and the Higher Self of others to benefit clients, students, family, and friends.  

Learning how to communicate with earth-bound entities is called Mediumship. Some who have physically died have trouble moving forward. Connection with your guides and higher wisdom is fundamental in communicating with, and assisting, earth-bound entities to fully transition to the other side.  

Awakening Your Light Body

Course Overview

Free intro/info session on September 11, 2023, 7:30-9:30 pm via Zoom. Please contact Caroline to register for this intro class.

New program starting October 2, 2023! 

The Awakening Your Light Body course is a “unique path of spiritual awakening through experiential, progressive expansions of consciousness that assist you in directly knowing the truth of your being”.  

The Light Body, once awakened, allows one to “experience many higher, expanded states of consciousness that take you beyond thought into direct experience of beingness”. The course was created by Daben and Orin, channeled by Duane Packer and Sanaya Roman respectively. 

The light body is awakened through “a combination of the processes and energies transmitted by Daben, and the personal and spiritual growth meditations and processes given by Orin.”

With Caroline’s coaching, you will be guided in an easy-to-follow, step-by-step program to assist you in experiencing higher states of consciousness, flowing emotions, heightened creativity, and a greater awareness of subtlest energies of existence, including the frequencies of your soul and spirit, and the “source and essence of your being”.

“The light body is compatible with and can strengthen and deepen your experience of any other spiritual practice and beliefs you have”.  It is a powerful path of spiritual growth and transformation, and includes direct transmission of higher frequencies from the realms of light.  No previous meditation experience is required, all that is needed is a willingness to practice, a joyful and playful attitude, and a commitment to your spiritual growth.

Consciously Creating Consciousness: Finding Our Authentic Expression

Food For Thought

Asian young woman doing qigong yoga stretching pilates exercise summer outdoor.

“Our anger and resistance (and any other emotion!) has a reason for being, and the wisdom of our body is so much different than the wisdom of our mind. We can totally understand our past and our emotions mentally but until we process it through the body we will continue to live it out.” ~ Mary Shutan

Course Overview
I love this recent quote by Mary Shutan, author of The Body Diva: Working with the Spiritual Consciousness of the Body (click on Feel to Heal in left column). It resonates with me, and I have been guided for some time now to work with the consciousness in the body, and to assist others to do the same.  Everything we need to know is in the body…all of the patterns we live by, consciously or unconsciously, the programs that feed our patterns, are held in the body. 
 
We have a saying in our community – you have to “feel it to heal it”. We don’t feel it with our minds, we feel it in, and with, the body. If one is not in their body, or there are certain body parts that are armored from feeling, one is disconnected from the wisdom and light inherent there.  Energy stagnates in these places, disrupting the harmonious flow of energy in the rest of the body.  In a safe, supportive, light-filled environment, one can mine the information stored in one’s body for potentials and possibilities and feel their way to healing.
 
If I had a dollar for every person I’ve worked with who said, “I thought I’d worked on that/healed that”, I would be a rich woman! People had thought their way through an issue and imaged it was solved, only to be surprised and have it be brought again to awareness, via their body, in our session. 
 
This course may benefit you if notice you have stubborn patterns of emotions, thoughts and behavior that have resisted change over time.  It may benefit you if you are on a path of spiritual growth and want to explore healing on all levels.  And you might definitely consider it if it brings up strong resistance – what we resist persists!  If you’re ready to move beyond living out old patterns, and meet the light the body holds, this class is for you.

 A new class is provided each week.  You may register for one month or as many months as you like; you can cancel at any time with one month notice. Class content includes some combination of qigong exercises, breathwork, guided meditations and journeys, and channeled higher wisdom.  Please see blog (under NEWS) to review wisdom in written form.  Classes are recorded, and available for approximately one month – they may reviewed as many times as desired in that time.
