"While teaching, Melinda shows such passion in what she speaks. She speaks from the heart and lives the ways of her teachings. The class Melinda offers was a Spiritual Platform for me. By opening me up to the gifts we all have been given and freeing me from the fear of using them, I feel very empowered. It is obvious that you have been guided to Melinda as I was for you to be reading my words. I highly suggest you take this opportunity and walk through the door that has been opened to you."
~ Rev. Tammy Steed - Norwalk, CA ~
"Each time I attend a
Gathering led by Melinda, I come away with such an uplifted feeling. She perfectly explains all that our
Wisdom want us to know in a direct, yet gentle manner. She always provides me with both a sense of peace and a renewed spiritual energy. She has also touched my family and friends in profound ways, either by offering guidance with issues in their lives, or spurring on their spiritual growth. She is truly a gift from God."
~Angela, Teacher - Whittier, CA~

Shamanic Therapy Practitioner™
Apprenticeship and Certification
with
Melinda Rodriguez
12
month distant learning program
Shamanic Therapy™ is a comprehensive study and healing practice that draws upon a medley of ancient Shamanic traditions and powerfully effective, cultural healing practices from around the
globe including North American, Aztec, Mayan, African,& Celtic
regions. As
a Sacred Medicine, Shamanism dates back to the earliest societies on
earth as an ancient spiritual tradition for healing the
mind/body/spirit. As modern medicine comes full circle, science and humanity are recognizing the validity
and vital importance of these ancient, holistic, nature-based healing practices. Shamanic Therapy™ blends these ancient tools and techniques with modern holistic practices resulting in an amazingly powerful healing system that
creates and sustains wholeness- the overall health and well-being of the body, mind and spirit.
The
role of a Shaman/Practitioner is to create and sustain balance and
wholeness for Mother Earth and her inhabitants. At this time on our
planet,
this role has become hugely important and increasingly popular as more and
more people are awakening to their calling as healer.
There
are many ways to achieve this balanced/whole state such as energy healing,
teaching, and offering guidance. The Shaman/Practitioner provides these
services by journeying between states of consciousness which has also been
called non-ordinary reality. Once the Shaman/practitioner gains extensive
experience traveling these inner realms, they become able to access
enhanced states of consciousness at will, without the need to journey.
Shamanism then becomes a way of living - always in tune with nature. Nature is the
teacher of balance and wholeness. When the Shaman/practitioner is
aligned with the natural world, his or her shamanic instincts are
awakened.
I am not one to teach deeply powerful and meaningful work over
a short time span. I truly believe that to be really proficient at what we are
learning, integrate that wisdom and truly living our path, we must give
ourselves time to digest, integrate and process the wisdom we gain.
Therefore, I have developed the Certified Shamanic Therapy Practitioner
experience as 12 month distant learning course the encompasses all seasons
and ample opportunity to develop and ignite our natural Shamanic skills.
Each month the student will receive material to study via email and
participate in a one hour mentoring session by phone. One on one and heart-to-heart with me.
As our evolving
society is thirsting for
a return to community, rhythm and nature and the healing and balance available
there, Shamanism and its practice has become a vitally important,
increasingly popular tool. I will take on a limited number of students and
mentor this sacred community in the sacred, ancient teachings and techniques of Shamanic Therapy™. The
12 month format enables the student to experience the magic and power of the seasons
and nature as they transition from one element to the other through the journey along the medicine wheel.
No prior experience or training is necessary. This course is designed for people who choose to integrate Shamanic Therapy into their current practice, begin a new career path, or those who simply wish to enhance their
life along the transformational path of the Shaman.
During this profoundly powerful program, students will learn to:
Master the Art of the Shamanic Journey - traveling in the "non-ordinary" reality of the lower, middle and upper worlds.
Understand, experience and perform sacred ceremony by exploring all
elements involved with ritual.
Understanding
the "wounded healer" and the process of becoming whole again.
Work with Shamanic Tools such as alters, herbs, crystals, feathers, stones, and
developing a deep connection with nature.
Utilize and administer Shamanic rhythm and sound with the drum, rattle, bells and
sacred chants.
Understand illness/wellness from a Shamanistic perspective.
Explore sacred power sites in the local area through group field trips.
Experience and perform Soul Retrieval.
Experience and perform Power Retrieval.
Experience and perform Shamanic "extraction" or transmuting of unwanted energy.
Tap into the guidance and wisdom of the Native American Medicine Wheel.
Connect
deeply with animal medicine and divination
Explore Goddess Shamanism - understanding women's power (from both male &
female perspectives).
Conduct Shamanic counseling and mentoring.
Use ethical, respectable, and professional methods to build and succeed in your professional Shamanic Therapy™ Practice.
Cultivate, develop and fully understand your personal intuitive nature and how
to tap into infinite wisdom for self guidance and the guidance of others.
Integrate energy healing and other holistic methods with shamanic practices.
I
will conclude this apprenticeship by presenting each participant with their
ceremonial/Spirit name through a special ritual.
The Certified
Shamanic Therapy Practitioner program will awaken and enhance your
natural healing and intuitive abilities through the path of Shamanism. I will guide participants step-by-step through the
concepts and processes of Shamanism to develop proficiency and walk the pathway to mastery.
This means that you gain from each class an enhanced
awareness, new skills and a deeper understanding of your sacred self. By the
end of the course, you will acquire an UNPARALLELED, COMPREHENSIVE
CERTIFICATION THAT EMPOWERS YOU TO WALK THE
WISE PATH OF THE SHAMAN AND UTILIZE SHAMANIC TOOLS FOR HEALING.
If you are already a
practitioner of the healing, counseling and/or intuitive arts, are just
starting out, or even thinking of exploring a Shamanic path, I want to extend an invitation to you to
expand your awareness and experience profound growth through this exceptional opportunity.
Maybe you are simply looking for personal spiritual growth without
really being interested in becoming a practitioner – that’s ok too.
I am looking to support
individuals of the highest integrity, dedicated to
their passion and purpose. I want to help you succeed and create profound healing on this planet.
It is my desire to see you being a transformational force of love and
light. This certification was intended for that.
I am looking for people who believe in their passion and are
ready to go to the next level.
The Shamanic path will teach you
invaluable life skills, wisdom, and spiritual awareness that will be with
you always, whether you decided to actually work with others or not.
Not everyone will necessarily go on to practice publicly, but your presence
and energy will still touch people and benefit the planet as a whole.
