Mongolia: The Shamanic Warriors Tour

Join Ancient Wisdom expert Mike Handcock and Shamanic Tradition expert Landi Jac in the home of the great Khan’s - Gengis and Kublai - for one of our most special and remote Soul Journeys.

‘Shamanism encompasses the premise that shamans are intermediaries or messengers between the human world and the spirit worlds. Shamans are said to treat ailments/illness by mending the soul. Alleviating traumas affecting the soul/spirit restores the physical body of the individual to balance and wholeness. The shaman also enters supernatural realms or dimensions to obtain solutions to problems afflicting the community.’
