Shamanic Arts & Healing

Ensemble members are the visual, literary and performing artists who collaborate to create the concepts for LFAE’s exhibits, performances and Healing Arts Intensives. These talented teaching-healing artists work on Creative Teams to produce the artwork, text, music and dance for each of the performances held during the run of our exhibits. Ensemble members are also the facilitators for the Intensives and Arts Classes.

Life Force Arts Shamanic Training (LFAST) provides comprehensive instruction in a contemporary form of shamanism, an ancient form of spiritual practice and healing through connecting to one’s spirit guides. It is based in the Life Force Arts Method. The program provides training from the basics of shamanism to establishing a firm personal shamanic practice, and progressing to doing shamanic healing and teaching for others.

We’re passionate about connecting people, art, healing and spirit. We believe that nurturing the unique gifts of each individual creates healthy, functional communities, and that the arts are 100,000 years of the technology of human consciousness that allows us to achieve this human wholeness. The arts are crucial to teaching people to perceive, express, communicate and live peacefully together. The arts are accumulated wisdom of our fellow humans reaching out to help us with any dilemma we might be facing.

LFAE’s work is not based on a particular ethnic culture or religious belief. Rather, it is a contemporary combination of both psychological and spiritual practice through a non-denominational approach to greater wholeness. By spiritual, we mean the non-material, including the human spirit, universal energy and mystical experience. We focus on the direct experience of the intuitive/spiritual realm. LFAE seeks to connect people to the spiritual side of life in a way that individuals of various beliefs and life experiences can embrace in their own way, discovering their own truth.
