The Shaman’s Book of Extraordinary Practices: 58 Practices and Rituals for Spiritual Transformation

Power Tools for Spiritual Transformation

The Shaman’s Book of Extraordinary Practices is a treasure chest of time-tested shamanic practices to help you achieve radical personal transformation. Building on his decades of experience as a shamanic practitioner and spiritual teacher, author José Luis Stevens offers fifty-eight simple but extraordinarily effective practices to bring about spiritual growth.

The practices in this book are organized into six categories:

• Preparatory--Establish a foundation of essential basic skills
• Energetic--Unblock and redirect stuck energy
• Relational--Deepen your relationships with others, nature, and yourself
• Physical--Use your body as a portal to the divine
• Creative--Harness the power of the imagination for spiritual growth
• Perceptual--Learn to perceive things in fresh new ways

Contrary to popular belief, Stevens asserts that you don’t need to attend intense retreats or to leave behind your home, job, and relationships to seek spiritual growth. You can awaken right now, today, in whatever circumstances already surround you.
