Winds of Spirit is a practical guide to connect to powerful wind energies that navigate us toward authentic joy, power, and purpose.

In this book, you'll explore the rich mythology and cultural significance of wind, and discover a powerful system to utilize the subtle, healing energies in your life. Winds of Spirit will teach you how to connect with your true inner self, use your body as a compass, and receive life-changing messages from nature. Based on an ancient sacred technique used by farmers, shamans, and sailors, this system will show you how to navigate your personal path, providing insight into how to manage the wind patterns and shifting conditions affecting you. You will also learn how to invoke wind deities—gods and goddesses from around the world—and the cardinal winds from the four quadrants of the sky, each of which relate to the inner landscape of your life: mind, emotions, body, and spirit. By working with the omnipresent winds in your life, you can restore harmony and balance, heal the body, and inspire creativity.

Spellbinding

The Wind—literally, metaphorically, philosophically, and spiritually—is the driving force or energy, as Renee Baribeau puts it, of our human existence, beginning with our first breath and ending with our last breath.

In The Winds of Spirit, well known shaman and writer Renee Baribeau has gone to the four corners of the earth to bring us back news of the winds. Her research has been methodical, meticulous and profound. The result is a fascinating read on the life giving and life changing role of the wind or winds in the human existence and beyond, of the role of the wind or winds in the creation and ongoing existence of our Universe and our planet. However riveting, this is merely one aspect of this spellbinding book whose core purpose is to function as a guide of shamanic practice for aspiring and experienced shamans alike, in utilizing the power of winds for transformation and healing. I was captivated from the start by this deeply personal and yet monumental depiction of the forces that move and shake our existence and has inspired and captivated the human imagination for millennia. What can I say? I recommend this book to anybody who is spiritually inclined. Go and read it and be moved by the winds of change. Chapeau!

Wind as an ally

In opening my heart to lessons from Wind, I found it in “Winds of Spirit: Ancient Wisdom Tools for Navigating Relationships, Health, and the Divine” by Renee Baribeau.

Her book is wealth of wind knowledge, a resource for shamanic practices and a tool for personal and spiritual guidance. I appreciate the book for its initial informative value and will be referring to it many more times as I continue to embrace the varying winds life sends my way.

Good information

This is good information about all the wind deities and how to connect to them along with why you want to connect to them. Enjoy all the information.

beautifully written

An insightful and unique message from the Winds invoice by the Practical Shaman. Very applicable, and needed guidance in this modern age. Also well narrated. Gratitude to both Renee and Nathan.

Beautiful book, like nothing I’ve ever read.

I listen to the author’s podcast, The Shaman’s Cave, which motivated me to listen to this book. I found it beautiful, thought provoking, and a wonderful tool!
I felt the narrator went rather quickly and didn’t give the book the emotion it required, but still a very worthwhile listen!

Great, Audio Book!

What a great Audio Book. I'm a Shamanic Practitioner and I learned so much about the Spirit of the Winds. Loved the deep dive into Wind Spirits and the practical use in my daily life. It's a must read/listen.

The winds speak to me

I have always been drawn to the wind. This book provides rich history about it. I find as I have gotten older that audio is so much better. I enjoyed listening to the wonderful narrator as he opens up the magic of the winds. I resonated deeply with the author as she shared personal experiences and how the wind had guided her towards healing. I love the chapters that go over the wind deities. So many that I didn't know existed. I may not call upon many of them but I am sure one or several will find me as I them. I strongly recommend this audio. Rosario
