Have you ever wondered why healing seems so elusive, so nonlinear? You're not alone. In our latest episode, we are here to demystify the complexities of the healing journey. We're pulling back the curtain on this ongoing process, underscoring the importance of revisiting old wounds and addressing our society's lack of grief support. Let's debunk the myth that healing is a one-time magical fix and explore its true nature—an enduring journey demanding tools, support, and understanding.

But it's not just about acknowledging the healing process, there's another crucial ingredient—self-compassion. We're diving into the transformative power of treating yourself with kindness and understanding, drawing from insights by experts such as Dr. Kristin Neff and Sarah Peyton. We'll be talking about the discomfort that inevitably arises during healing and how vital it is to sit with these feelings rather than letting them feed negative narratives.

Finally, hear how keeping a healing journal and reflecting on your personal journey can keep you accountable. Remember, your journey toward healing begins with self-compassion and personal accountability. Join us, and let's embark on this journey together.

Reposting from 44: Creating Ripples of Change: a Shamanic Perspective on World Events.

This is Tina’s helping spirits’ message regarding being in service during global crises:

“The act of joining together during a crisis is profound. When humans join hands in compassion to hold space for the tragedies that often occur in your world, your hearts sync together. Do you realize that we see the strands of light interwoven around the globe when you do this? Although you may not realize it, the love and compassion that is ignited does counteract the energies that have brought about the event.”

How can your kindness and compassion touch lives, even when you feel physically distant from the turmoil? This episode of Shaman's After Dark revea...

What if you had the power to guide lost spirits home? Would you dare to walk the path of the psychopomp? Join us in a daring exploration of the ethereal world of disembodied spirits, their connection with the living, and the delicate act of persuading them to cross over to the other side. We unveil the intricate puzzles surrounding these spirits: their potential fears, religious beliefs, feelings of unworthiness, unfinished business, and traumatic deaths that can bind them to the Middle World. And that's not all - we'll also touch upon the curious codependent relationships that can develop between spirits and humans, as well as the influence they can wield over human behavior and habits.

Ever wondered how to deal with traumatized spirits? We'll dissect the art of psychopomp work, a unique blend of compassion, non-judgment, understanding, and respect for spiritual free will. We'll address the necessity of conglomerate shamanic efforts in places scarred by mass trauma and the pivotal role of wisdom keepers in this sacred journey. We'll also share our insights on the significance of guiding these earthbound spirits home, and how the loss of ancient ways has amplified their plight. So, come along for this enchanting journey as we navigate the enigmatic world of earthbound spirits and the compassionate task of guiding them home.

Beltaine Blessings to you! According to the Celtic Pagan calendar, we are entering into the summer season here in the northern hemisphere! It was a deep, cold winter here in Maine where Bri and Tina live and while both enjoyed hunkering down in the Womb of Winter, it's time to check in to see what has been germinating under the blanket of snow during that time!

Our 41st episode, Manifesting our own Landscape asks each of us to make time for self-reflection so that we can be really clear about what we truly wish to dream up into our lives. We want to ask how it serves not just ourselves but also the collective at this particular time. So, drop into a tender heart space allow a willingness to be honest with yourself about what you truly desire.

"Manifesting" is a popular word these days, but as seasoned shamanic practitioners, we're not talking about manifesting the big house or the fancy car. When we speak of manifesting, we’re talking about manifesting love for others, compassion, empathy, self-love, manifesting balance within and without, manifesting better health for ourselves and the planet, culminating a potent creative force, as well as creating healthy relationships in our lives that support a more authentic way of being. How can we manifest patterns for ourselves that work for us and the flow of our lives that affects positive change for ourselves and others?

Join Bri and Tina as they delve into the topic of self-love. Listen in to hear some tips about supporting the practice of self-love and what the helping spirits have to share about loving our human selves:

"Self-love is as natural as breathing. Humans are brought into this world with this simple and yet important capacity that is available for themselves. As much as it is rich, it enriches the tapestry of one’s life as it is a personal net of support, filled with empathy, compassion, acceptance and peace. When you fill yourselves with self love it's easier for your light to shine through. If you feed yourself words of loving compassion and kindness you will be feeding your light and your soul and that has the power to change everything. And yet, when a human greets others amongst them who have lost this essential capacity, the inner light can dim from not being fed. When you tear yourself down and feed yourself with feelings of shame and guilt, you disempower yourself, you start to lose sight of your light and your worth. Words have power and if you feed yourself ugly words, you are wounding yourself and keeping yourself small. Nevertheless, it is the task of the self to find that inner nurturance. In truth, the art of self-love is not dependent on nor does it need permission to flourish from the external world."

Woo-hoo! Our first episode dropped a year ago today! Happy Birthday Shamans After Dark podcast! Tune in as we release our second episode of Season 2!

Find us on most streaming services or at www.shamansafterdark.com.

06/03/2023

Join Tina and Bri in Season 2, episode 39 as they talk about the Art of Ceremony. From a cultural standpoint, ceremonies are an important means of expressing, reinforcing and transmitting varying cultural values.

For us, ceremony is not taken from other cultures, but directly given to us by our helping spirits. This is important to talk about because as practitioners and teachers, we are very tuned into what might be cultural appropriation. So, when we ask our helping spirits for a ceremony, we are given specific items, visions, scenes, or words that our helping spirits will need to carry out the energy and to create shifts in this world. This is why it’s so important to come into this sacredness with an open, integral heart.

Ceremony can be a way for us to release what no longer serves us. It might be a way to offer gratitude. We can also honor ourselves and make space for all that we have suffered or we might allow ourselves to bear witness to our triumphs and failures with a compassionate heart. Ceremony is all about our intention. Whether simple or elaborate, we can perform ceremony around anything that we feel called to.

Season 2 just dropped today! Shaman's After Dark podcast is back from break, and now releasing monthly episodes for our listeners. Tune in as Bri Andreoni and Tina D'Amore discuss the Womb of Winter: Stillness + Gestation.

It's so important to really get into the space of Sacred Stillness so we can dig deep down and bring forth our own golden nuggets of creation into this world. Nothing that is authentically worthwhile to give "birth" to can be rushed. Look at Nature! When She is in Winter she has slowed down. On the surface, there isn't much to witness, but there is SO much going on underneath.

Our helping spirits have shared:

"What is most important during this time is to delve into the inner light, the creative forces, and the inner “womb” (no matter what gender one affiliates with) in order to bring forth a new layer of authenticity and wonder into the external world as divine timing commands. Life is a cycle of deaths and rebirths, so allow this sacred time to flow through and around. Tap into the rhythms alive all around you in the natural world (it is there, beating underneath the seemingly dead stillness - can you find it?) and center yourself. What parts of you need to die? Have no fear, for this dying part of you that you are courageous enough to let go of will become the nourishing soil for what you give birth to in your own Springtime."

Tina and Bri will be indulging in some Sacred Rest to bring you new topics for 2023! Tune in February 6th, 2023 for Season 2!! Until then everyone, keep on shining your light!

12/12/2022

Join Bri and Tina in their FINAL podcast episode of 2022 as they discuss the concept of Sacred Rest. They will also talk about podcast plans for 2023.

Here is what the helping spirits had to share about Sacred Rest:

“Rest is needed not just when you are tired, but as a part of daily life. Your world is too fast, it is unnatural. This is at the heart of collective sickness. You cannot see the world and notice its beauty when your energy is too frenetic... Humans have the misconception that the world will stop without them - this is an egoic concept of importance. We urge you to look upon the natural findings around you. Observe their cycles and allow yourself time to unwind, restore, reset. All of what you feel is 'important' can wait - and what will come into focus is what is truly important - and that is you."

Join Tina and Bri this week as they delve into the subject of surrender.

Surrendering to present circumstances can free us from fighting what is no longer to be, and this can allow us to reserve more energy to feed what we are dreaming up instead. Surrendering to the vast amount of possibilities can free us up from fighting with present circumstances. It can bring us to a place where we can entertain many possibilities - where we can settle our focus on the miraculous possibilities. So, in letting go of the tug of war, we can allow what is, and from that place begin dreaming up what we desire in our hearts.

28/11/2022

Join Bri and Tina as they discuss the phenomenon of Dark Night of the Soul. Who does it happen to and why and more importantly, how does it potentially transform someone encountering this very intense time period?

"This rite of passage is not for the faint of heart. From a human perspective, we as spirits witness the grief, anguish, self-doubt, and anger that accompanies such times. However, this process is about letting go of the old self to begin again as something new and something previously undefined. To your ancestors in shamanic cultures, this was recognized as a sacred time, so the one undergoing intense change was supported more than modern humans tend to be."

There is a lot of talk about the Divine Feminine these days. Yet, the darker aspects of the Divine Feminine have not been fully embraced and make people uncomfortable - especially women. But it is still very much a part of the totality of what the Divine Feminine means. She is both light and dark - and so are we. When we are talking about the Dark Feminine, or as we like to call it the Empowed Feminine, we’re talking about traits that might not even be that “dark” but have been labeled that way in order to take away feminine power. Women were warriors in certain societies...

This week, Bri and Tina discuss the not-so-talked-about phenomenon of when Spirit seems silent. You know, the times when you don't experience synchronicities or hear the guidance of your guides? Do you ever wonder if something is "wrong" or if Spirit has stopped communicating with you altogether? This time can be anxiety-provoking, for sure. But this occurance happens to most spiritual people. What is this silent time about? Join us to find out!

Sovereignty is a place of alignment where you own your needs, feelings and thoughts, even when they’re not agreed upon or supported by others, and you don’t worry about the disconnect (because you're honoring YOU first). This doesn’t mean you’re not moving forward with compassion and empathy with others, but you're also not compromising your values, self-respect, self-worth, and self-love. This can be difficult to do for women, because standing in one's personal sovereignty may mean that they’re going to rock the boat and maybe be seen as a difficult person or perhaps be called a few undesirable names. However, someone who truly owns themselves unapologetically is a power to behold in this world.
