Episode 128: Reclaiming Ancient Indigenous Wisdom & Decolonizing Shamanism With Marilu Shinn

Marilu has held a private practice as a Shamanic Practitioner since 2012.  Her formal training includes the Four Winds Society as well as an ongoing apprenticeship with the Nusta Medicine Women of Peru. 

 

Her own healing journey and reclamation of her Ancestral Wisdom brought her to embody the Ancient Wisdom Traditions of Peru and to share the Medicine and Beauty of this Lineage as a path towards Empowerment and Embodied living.  Her mission and passion are to reconnect Women with their Authentic Selves; to awaken their somatic awareness through Shamanistic practices and to reconnect them with their innate Sacred Womb Wisdom as the foundations for leading fulfilling whole lives. Marilu holds international retreats and Earth Based Ceremonies in the Santa Cruz mountains and anywhere where Medicine is needed. She works privately with both men and women.
