Betsy Bergstrom is a full-time Shamanic Practitioner who has studied with shamans
and healers from many cultures. She is a graduate of the Foundation for Shamanic
Studies 3-Year Program. She has been trained by a number of indigenous shamans and
healers who have encouraged her and shared with her their wonderful teachings. Her
calling is to work in partnership with the Helping Spirits, to help the living and
with the dead. She says, "...the feedback from my classes has been that the
teaching (of Heart Centered Shamanic Depossession) defused much of the fear that
some people felt in approaching the work of clearing and depossession." |

Carla Meeske
I am a shamanic practitioner in Glendale, Arizona. I have been working with my
spirits since the late 80's to help people and animals become well and whole. A
member of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies and The Society for Shamanic
Practitioners, I follow the path of core shamanism, using healing techniques that
are common to many cultures and compatible with our modern world. I have trained
with the Foundation in soul retrieval, power animal retrieval, death and dying,
divination and healing, and completed the Foundation's three year training program
in 2000. I work with people and with animals. Cats, dogs, horses, goats and
chickens have been recipients of my spirit allies' gracious healing power. |

Shoshana Avree
My mission is to help serve the Spirits in the most compassionate manner possible. My intention is to help others
"wake up" to their lives through the work of the compassionate spirits showing the way of healing to the client.
I believe my work is about "planting a seed, grows a thousand trees" of happiness, joy, bliss, healing and right action;
helping to make our human condition more exquisite and life affirming. The flame in each of our souls shines brighter
serving one another and the Mother (Earth and all its creatures).

Karen Furr: Spirit Drum
Spirit Drum is the heartchild of Karen, a former Franciscan Sister living in Kingman, Arizona.
For her there is no separation of the realities of seen and unseen, and her work as a healer is rooted in the belief that it is not what
we "do" that heals, but what we allow ourselves to become.
As a Shamanic healer and Reiki Master Teacher, Karen understands illness from perspective of loss of essential power.
As a former Catholic sister, she walks the path of the mystic and healer, seeking to integrate all the worlds for healing of self, community and
Earth. She is aware that it is in bringing Light into the world that healing and wholeness can happen. |

Michael Dunning: Transformation and Healing from the Sacred Yew Tree
The yew tree is one of our first and greatest spiritual teachers. The language of the yew communicates with the body
from the subtle and generative realms of the Otherworld, inspiring the arts of seership and prophesy, as well as
illuminating the ability to access our innate self-healing processes. I am honored to have been called to learn from
one such teacher - a solitary and ancient female yew tree in Scotland that not only renewed my dying body, but
gave me deep insight into an ancient practice of healing that I have named Yewshamanism. |

Vantage Quest helps access creativity that may astonish you. It works by stilling the
mind and allowing material to enter the field of awareness from the subconscious and
transpersonal realms of consciousness. Like a shaman's journey, it is diving into the inner
formless unknown and returning with a gift to help repair our outer world. It is
receiving to give. Vantage Quest is a instrument for applied reverie in service of

Donna Cooper: The Wildcast Bronze Sculpture Gallery
I believe creative expression is an inherent attribute available to each of us.
It requires believing in yourself, acquiring the necessary skills to do the work,
and finding your medium of expression -- whether that is writing, painting,
teaching, sculpting or working with people. |
