I am super excited to announce my upcoming 7-Week course with the Shift Network on African Shamanic Dreamwork. I had an amazing time teaching with the Shift last year. Students were well held with a private Facebook group, handouts, recordings every week and the opportunity to engage with other people during the online training.

I will be sharing over 25 years of experience and training as a Sangoma. The 7-week course will run as a ceremony to help people connect with ‘the part of them that doesn’t die, their immortality’. This is a core concept in many indigenous traditions, including the Sangoma. I was baptized and immersed in this ancient culture of dreaming with my Sangoma elders. I would like to share this with you.

In this 7-week course I will take you through some simple steps and practices to help you remember your dreams, and work through the riddle of your NIGHTIME JOURNEYS. We will explore herb washes (non-hallucinogenic) with common plants like lavender, pine & rosemary etc.; meditation involving stillness as well as drumming & chanting + PLAY to connect to our innocence.

In traditional Xhosa and Swazi cultures, your dreams are a direct channel of communication with the ancestral and spirit realms.

In this course:

• you’ll discover how to track and focus on specific dream images that can help you travel to the realms of your ancestors… meet your animal totems… and experience the divine love of the Great Spirit, allowing you to receive guidance, protection, and inspiration in every moment.

• You’ll learn to cultivate mindfulness, radical humility, and sensory awareness as you navigate the dreamtime to uncover the hidden messages within your dreams. 

• By slowing down and attuning yourself to the whispers of your soul, you’ll discover how your dreams are calling you to embrace your hero’s journey and find deep purpose in everyday life.

I hope to see you there. 🌈

Warmest wishes, 🙏

John.
