Shamanism, Dying, and Beyond™ Workshop

Participants learn how to deal with the issue of dying and the destiny of souls from a shamanic perspective. Developed by Michael Harner, this workshop is designed both for those who wish to learn for themselves, and for those who wish to help others who are in terminal situations or who have already passed on. Learn what happens to human souls after they leave the body, become familiar with the after-death realms, and practice the classic psychopomp ("conductor of souls") methodology.
