Welcome to White Raven!
Understanding Shamanic Healing
My name is Wendy Sparks-Rehl, and I am a trained shamanic practitioner as well as an energy healer who serves as a guide, helping participants navigate their inner landscapes to help restore balance and harmony to their lives.
Shamanism is the oldest known healing modality on earth and has been practiced in some form by nearly all indigenous tribes. It is not a religion, but rather a set of very practical and effective methods. Shamanic practitioners access the spirit realm by entering into an altered state of consciousness. Here at White Raven, we do this through rhythmic drumming or rattling. The sound and intention lead you into a theta wave state. It's in this heightened state that our intuition flows effortlessly, allowing our Shamanic techniques to help break down barriers of negativity and emotional blockages.
I have a blog post about Shamanic drumming here: Shamanic Drumming

Benefits of Personalized Shamanic Sessions
Emotional Healing
One of the significant benefits of a session is emotional healing. Many of us carry unresolved traumas or emotional pain that can manifest physically. Guided visualization and energy work gently allow clients to confront these emotional challenges, fostering healing and emotional balance.
Together we create a safe space to uncover deep-rooted patterns that may impede personal growth. By embracing this approach, you can take meaningful steps towards healing and transformation, enhancing resilience and empowerment in your life.
Spiritual Growth
Shamanic practices also facilitate spiritual exploration and growth. These sessions encourage individuals to discover their life purpose and their connection to the universe. In a world where many feel disconnected, shamanic healing can help to provide clarity and insight.
In our Journey Groups, participants engage in guided meditative journeys, connecting with their spirit guides to uncover wisdom that may have been obscured. This connection fosters self-awareness and encourages ongoing personal evolution.
Spiritual Connection
Connect with your inner world. This is all about your own personal voyage and it can be very beautiful and nurturing.

What to Expect in a Session
When you schedule a personalized shamanic session at White Raven, prepare for a relaxing, informative experience tailored to your unique needs. Sessions last for about 2 hours with your initial session lasting up to 2 1/2 hours.
We begin with an initial consultation where I will learn about your background and health goals. The session will include guided meditation, accompanied by gentle music and drumming or rattling (I know this sounds a bit wild and if you are anything like my husband, downright silly at first, but this works), along with various healing tools. Afterward, you will have time for reflection and discussion to help integrate the insights gained. For more details, read about what to expect in your shamanic session here.

Healing Methods
Illumination
Illumination is the process of clearing the chakras of heavy, unwanted energies that dim the flow of your energy. It is the first thing we do in a session. I have a post about it here: Illuminating Chakras
Restoring Power
Power, in the shamanic sense, is the life force that flows through you, allowing you to create, to be healthy, and to be protected. Power loss results in symptoms including chronic bad luck, low energy, lack of purpose, and depression. Reuniting with your power animal and other helping spirits is really helpful.
Soul Retrieval
Part of our vital essence, or soul, can leave during emotional or physical abuse, accidents, loss of a loved one, assault, rape, incest, divorce, surgery, or wartime experiences. Soul loss can sometimes result in symptoms including feelings of emptiness, unhealthy relationships, chronic illness or depression. What is Shamanic Soul Retrieval?
Shamanic Journeying
Nearly anyone can learn how to do shamanic journeying, an out-of-body experience in which you enter into an altered state of consciousness through rhythmic drumming to retrieve information or receive healing. Journey Into the Shamanic World
