A renowned medical anthropologist offers a practical and revolutionary program to alleviate the effects of disease, prevent illness, and revitalize relationships using traditional shamanic healing methods “At last, a deeply committed seeker, scholar, and teacher has brought the rich legacy of Native America forward to take its rightful place among the world’s great spiritual traditions.”—Rudolph Ballentine, M.D., author of Radical Healing Alberto Villoldo has studied shamanic healing techniques among the descendants of the ancient Inkas for decades. In Shaman, Healer, Sage, he draws on his vast body of knowledge to create a program based on the ancient healing methods used by these shamans—methods that have long been inaccessible to most of the world. Villoldo explains the Luminous Energy Field, the central concept to shamanic healing that is believed to surround our material bodies, and teaches us how to see and influence the imprints that disease leaves on this field and thereby heal ourselves and others, as well as ward off illness. Villoldo masterfully weaves personal anecdotes throughout his teachings that showcase the power of the energy medicine of the Americas. In one story, he recounts when antibiotics failed to control his pneumonia after he contracted the infection in Peru. His mentor, the shaman Don Antonio, used the process of Illumination to remove the toxins that had invaded Villoldo’s body. These same shamanic techniques later allowed Villoldo to remove stagnant energy from a young woman whose marriage was suffering due to her past experience with abandonment. With the aid of shamanic work, the woman regained her trust in others, and her marriage was revitalized. Rich with ancient wisdom and contemporary techniques, Shaman, Healer, Sage is an invaluable resource to helping ourselves and others.
