Publisher's summary

One of the main tenets of shamanism is a belief in the power of ceremony to manifest change in the physical world. Virtually all shamanic traditions use a variety of ritual practices as tools for personal transformation, healing, and celebration. Now, in this exciting and practical book, Toltec shaman and New York Times best-selling author don Jose Ruiz introduces and explains a wealth of these shamanic rituals and ceremonies, and provides a detailed and accessible guide to performing them on your own.

This book will teach you how to: Choose and create power objects, build a personal altar and medicine wheel, align your life with the cycles of nature, find and work with your spirit animals, honor your ancestors, undertake power journeys, and much more! Like the medicine bag itself, this book is a potent tool kit of spiritual practices meant to open you to a world of beauty, exploration, and transformation. By offering step-by-step instructions in each chapter, don Jose Ruiz has made these rituals and ceremonies accessible to everyone who feels called to travel the shamanic path.

Life’s wisdom

This is the book I wish I could receive from an elder, or a family member. It is beautifully explained for westerners.

"You are the artist of your own life"

I am a light worker. I've been asking my guides frequently throughout the day for guidance and signs on how to make the shift that has been calling me. After hours of searching for and surrender to that guidance, this book resonated in a profound way. I had a period in my life when I studied shamanic journeying through dreams and drumming. I remember feeling more expansive, in the flow, and just very concious and excited with each new day. At some point, my joy became duller and the events happening in the world became my focus. I am so grateful to the author for sharing his heritage (love you grandmother! Yes, I consider her mine ,too ) As I've listened, the connection with All has, once again, expanded my awareness of love for self and all life. I really enjoyed the narrator and the content! Easy to understand and follow along if you're a beginner and a great reminder for those who have lost a sense of self love and power.

Beautiful set of tools

I am so thankful I read this book. It was beautiful and inspiring to say the least. I believe most who would read this have some sort of spiritual understanding so a lot of this is also confirming what we already do yet inspires more creativity. Absolutely recommend this book.
