- (1888PressRelease) February 03, 2011 - Streaming live on the Co-Creator Radio Network on Tuesday, February 8, 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 tells listeners that the right use of power requires that we are willing to do whatever it takes. The person of mature spirituality understands that this will mean drawing on discernment, flexibility, and adaptability. One must discern when to act with insight on the past and far-sighted perspective on the future or when to act with trust in invisible allies and intuition in the face of the Unknown.
In this episode of "Why Shamanism Now?" titled "Taking Right Action," Pratt explores what it means to take right action in a world that has normalized a diverse array of the abuses of power. Taking right action always requires facing our fears. Only then can we act with discernment. And we must act if we are to engage in the right use of power. The mature spiritual warrior knows that she must "do whatever it takes" while steering clear of "doing it at all costs." To act at all costs is the desperate act of the child and often results in soul loss and giving away our gifts and power. This lays down the pattern for life draining co-dependant relationships and/or unexplained autoimmune disorders that drain us of life force. According to Pratt, we have all acted at all cost as children and we need to go back, heal and reclaim ourselves from those moments. In this week's show, Pratt explores the warriorship of self-reclamation and the art of doing whatever it takes.
