A sacred invitation to journey inward

Join this immersive retreat and explore a direct path toward understanding who you are and why you are here now. Through an ancient Siberian practice, participants are guided into a deeper experience of self on both human and spiritual levels, opening the way to authenticity, healing, trust, and clear inner knowing.

As you move through refined spiritual practices, you enter the territory of Spirit Lake — a landscape that mirrors body and life in practical, meaningful ways. This process offers insight into health, energy, relationships, purpose, and the patterns shaping daily experience. From there, you meet the Soul, known as the Spirit Twin, and begin to feel supported, connected, and at home within yourself.

With continued practice, this work helps release what interferes with growth, align with universal laws, and soften ego-driven limitations. The result is a more grounded relationship between body and soul, along with a deeper ability to trust intuition, innate wisdom, and spiritual guidance in everyday life.

Who this retreat is for

This Soul Shamanism Training is designed for healers, teachers, therapists, coaches, yogis, and all seekers. Experienced shamanic practitioners will also find this advanced-level practice offers a more direct path to healing and understanding.

Offered in a retreat setting, the program provides space to slow down, integrate, and step away from daily responsibilities. The nurturing environment of the Himalayan Institute supports the depth of this experiential training.

This comprehensive training includes:

New levels of teaching and experience to deepen your journey
A Soul Shamanism Divine Playbook to support your practice
A recording of teachings with two practices to begin
Lecture, discussion, shamanic journeys, and additional practices
Extended hours post-retreat, including a follow-up Zoom session for full integration
Recordings of the class journeys and new practices for independent work

After completion, participants may join an ongoing Zoom group for continued growth, learning, and practice. Additional classes will also be available for those who wish to explore further levels of the practice.

What participants have shared

Testimonials from healing professionals and advanced seekers describe the experience as powerful, clarifying, and deeply transformative — a space that supports personal insight, sacred guidance, and a stronger connection to the true Self.

From Janet: she has been honored to support thousands of people in this practice, including her own 80-year-old mother, who described feeling at home for the first time. In this lineage, everyone has a Spirit Lake and a twin, and from there, the journey is limitless.
