- (1888PressRelease) May 11, 2011 - Streaming live on the Co-Creator Radio Network on Tuesday, May 17, at 11 a.m. Pacific time/2 p.m. Eastern time, on her show "Why Shamanism Now?: A Practical Path to Authenticity," shaman and founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing Christina Pratt says that Spiritual Warriorship is more than a metaphor that a psychotherapist drags out every time we are challenged to take the actions necessary to change. Our attitudes and behaviors of self-denial and self-aggrandizement are challenging to change precisely because they have become habits of thought, feeling, and memory. According to Pratt, it is the internal realm of these habits within each of us that is the perpetual battleground of the spirit warrior and the insidious enemy within. Our everyday actions in the outer world are also potentially actions of the spirit warrior, but they are a direct reflection of our actions in this inner world. Without change in here, we can't change out there.
In this episode of "Why Shamanism Now?" titled "Shamanism and the Spiritual Warrior", Pratt explores how the basic shamanic relationship between human and helping spirit brings precisely the support our spirit warriors needs today. Humanity has offered many paths to support the conscientious dedication and skills need by the spirit warrior, but most of these paths are unreachable by the ordinary contemporary individual. Pratt tells listeners that our helping spirits-if engaged regularly and skillfully-offer the flexibility, creativity, and clever persistence to bring the path to us.
