Shamanism Workshop
Rapéh Medicine Ceremony
Despacho Prayer Ceremony

Join us for this empowering workshop that spans 7 hours of educational and immersive hands-on experiences.

Are you drawn to the ancient teachings and practices of shamanism? Even if you don’t imagine yourself to be a future shaman, there is a lot to be gained from implementing shamanic teachings and techniques in your life. From healing methods to understanding the deeper layers of self and the universe, to the powerful medicines used by ancient shamans… it’s a powerful tool for uncovering latent abilities and navigating the mystery that is life.

If you feel called to explore the ancient practice that is shamanism, and you like the sound of spending the day immersed in the ancient ways, surrounded by like-minded souls, while acquiring valuable shamanic skills for your daily life then my workshop may be a good place to start.

Rachael’s Shamanism workshop literally blew my mind! Having just started my spiritual journey it has given me the confidence to know where I want to go. Rachael’s knowledge and passion is second to none. The drum journey with the Sananga eye drops was fantastic and the Rapeh medicine was surreal and so energizing. The whole day was magical, relaxed, and informative. I met some truly magical people too. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone who is interested in knowing more about Shamanism

The world of Rapéh

Rapéh is a sacred shamanic snuff that consists of many Amazonian medicinal plants with a Mapacho tobacco base. All of the plants used in the Rapéh medicine are powerful allies and teachers and have been carefully selected. Carefully crafted by the Yawanawa tribe, the Rapéh medicine that we will be working with during the workshop holds unique vibrational qualities. Rapéh is a non-psychoactive plant medicine that aids in open up your third eye, balancing the chakras, assisting a deep meditative state, releasing trapped trauma and emotions, and connecting you back to source and to your spirit.

The Power of Sananga

Sananga is an eye drop made from the roots and bark of the Tabernaemontana undulata shrub. This sacred and potent medicine is used for healing physical and spiritual ailments, by clearing the mind of distractive energies and allowing for a complete new way of perceiving and focusing. The spirit of Sananga looks for energy patterns in your system that are out of balance, helps to clear the energy field of "panemas", opens up the inner vision, opens the third eye, releases toxic emotions and energy from the energy field, opens the heart chakra, and expands our connection to the spiritual realms. Sananga is also very good for the eyes physically and can help with cataracts, glaucoma and astigmatism. It is also anti fungal and antioxidant.

The price for this workshop is £50. Spaces are limited and the events are always popular so please book early to avoid disappointment. For next workshop details and to book your place, please check my Retreats and Workshops booking page.

Here's what others say about their experience:

I attended Rachael’s workshop on Sunday and was welcomed by her open arms. The workshop surpassed my expectations. A great introduction for anyone curious about shamanism. She held space brilliantly and was very organised and thoughtful in her approach. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is a little bit interested to let her guide you. The workshop was fun and very informative. It’s been a pleasure to meet Rachael and I will hopefully see you soon. Look forward to my next experience! Love and light
Rachael is an amazing healer and great facilitator. Whilst some holistic experiences can feel quite abstract and overloaded with content, Rachael takes her time to explain in detail whilst nurturing clients extremely well. She has a beautiful, warm and powerful energy that invites spirit in so beautifully. I was honoured to share space with Rachael at a shamanism workshop and really look forward to working with her again
A beautiful and well facilitated workshop, Rachael is a natural at guiding you out of the hustle and bustle and into the warmth of connection with self and others. Her patience, acceptance, love and commitment to spiritual practices shines through everything she does. I think I can speak for everyone who attended when I say that Rachael’s workshop will leave you feeling more whole, knowledgeable and open to endless possibilities than when you entered.
I went to one of Rachael’s Introduction to shamanism workshops at Kapucia in Liverpool. It was fantastic. Rachael is lovely and the day was perfectly set out and jam packed with information, energy exercises and journeying. We tried out plant medicines and had 2 drum journeys. It was fantastic! If you are interested in Shamanism (if it is calling to you) then don’t hesitate to pop along to one of these workshops and find out more. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you Rachael for a wonderful day
I had a truly magical day in Rachael’s workshop, she created a wonderful space for sharing, healing and growing. I left feeling so inspired and full of joy. I would highly recommend Rachael’s workshops, the content was fascinating. I’m excited for the next one!
I didn’t know what to expect from the Shamanic workshop! The experience was exquisite and incredible value for money. We experienced so much in a short space of time; breathing exercises, powerful plant medicine, drum journeys and healing all with wonderful attendees. Rachael’s teaching is superb and she made me feel really relaxed and very humbled. I highly recommend this inspiring workshop and Rachael’s guidance
It was wonderful to meet Rachael and all the other people drawn to this workshop. Rachael has the gift of teaching in a way that inspires others in their own journey. I learned many things at the workshop - the most important of which is to trust in myself and not try to control. Thank you Rachael for bringing us such wonderful insight
The shamanism workshop I went to was fantastic. Great teacher, lovely venue and a nice way to meet some like minded people. The day was much more varied and practical than I expected which made it so good. Thank you!
So glad that I got to meet Rachael in this lifetime. She is just amazing and in a way has changed my life and my view on things!! I attended a shamanic healing workshop that Rachael did and it was another level
Amazing workshop with Rachael learning about plant medicines and shamanic healing!! Hopefully I will get to go to her retreat one day too!
I absolutely loved Rachael’s shamanism workshop. Rachael has a very special energy, she is genuinely a lovely person. She shared so much knowledge at the workshop, and held such a beautiful space with us all. I would highly recommend working with Rachael, honestly one of the best workshops I’ve ever been to. The journeying experience was beautiful & I honestly thought the music was a pre recorded track, till I realised it was Rachael with her drum & singing, just beautiful. Definitely book on you won’t regret it! Thank you Rachael for holding this space
It was my first time at Rachael’s workshop and definitely won’t be the last. I was immediately greeted with a warm hug and totally felt at ease. The room was decorated beautifully with crystals, feathers, shamanic drums… it was absolutely breathtaking. Everyone that was at the workshop was so lovely. I don’t want to say too much about the workshop as I don’t want to spoil it for anyone who hasn’t been. But what I will say…. I will definitely be attending the next workshop! Simply an incredible beautiful experience. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge Rachael
