- (1888PressRelease) July 26, 2013 - Streaming live on the Co-Creator Radio Network on Tuesday, July 30, at 11am Pacific/2pm Eastern on "Why Shamanism Now? A Practical Path to Authenticity," shaman and founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing Christina Pratt notes that sacred sounds resonate with the original blueprint for life in general and an individual's life. Sacred song can be a direct path by which the shaman restores resonance with one's original self in your body in the moment, regardless of the stories your mind spins or the fears you believe in. According to Pratt, shamanic sound healing can be offered to others or practiced with the intention of self-healing, but either way you do not need to know how to sing.
In this episode of "Why Shamanism Now?" titled "Sacred Song: Art and Shamanism", Pratt discusses sacred sound and shamanism with shamanic sound healer and teacher Lauri Shainsky. Shainsky has a thriving practice in shamanic sound healing and works with individuals and groups to rediscover sacred sound and how we can sing with the song the universe is singing of all life. Shainsky talks to Pratt in the second episode of the new Why Shamanism Now? series, "Art and Shamanism."
