THREE TEACHINGS YOU CAN LEARN FROM SHAMANISM!
Shamanism is not a religion, but it is considered a spiritual practice; and more than a spiritual practice, shamanism is a way of life. This worldview that has been adapted to all the cultures of the world since ancient times, gathers the most essential of the human being; the ability to live in community, constantly communicate with what surrounds us and overcome fear on the path of knowledge, as well as survival. Shamanism is a path of evolution, not only for your earthly self, but for your spiritual self. And that is why we will tell you three teachings that you can take from this way of living so that you include it in your daily life and in your spiritual practices:
IN SHAMANISM EVERYTHING IS ALIVE
One of the premises of shamanism is that it seeks the union of everything and everyone. Far from the separatist vision that plagues the modern world, this path of consciousness reminds us: We are all one. If you open your eyes and if you awaken your consciousness, everything that surrounds you is part of your reality and is part of a system of interdependence. Nothing is more than nothing, because we all need each other to be able to shape this reality. That is why, from shamanism, the human being does not surpass nature or any living being: Because everything is alive, just like you, who breathe at this moment. When you can recognize the life of everything around you, be it an animate or inanimate object, you can experience the universal union and open yourself to subtle experiences that you could never have imagined.

IN SHAMANISM YOU HAVE TO BE ON THE LOOK
Another of the teachings of shamanism is that you have to cultivate full attention to everything you experience. Who speaks? Is my mind running my life? Where do my beliefs come from? Am I really connected, or do I think I’m connected? The mind, as we already know, likes to play achievement, duality and judgments. For this reason, being on the lookout (i.e., being attentive or awake) will help you get rid of lies, false perceptions or non-existent triumphs… And in the same way, it will protect you from being influenced by visions of life that are not consistent with your purest essence!

IN SHAMANISM YOU HAVE TO LIVE FROM VALUE
To heal, you have to want to heal. To evolve, we must pay the price of our old suits. To obtain knowledge, many times, you have to overcome the fear of the unknown and new forms. In this way, we could tell you that shamanism is a path of value . And remember… Courage does not mean that you are not afraid or that you run away from it. Courage is feeling fear, and even so, taking the next step towards what gives you liberation and awakens consciousness.
