Personal Transformation + Skills for Service

This is a skills-based workshop for those who want to learn shamanic practices for healing themselves and others.

You will receive healing and gain personal insight—these are wonderful and unavoidable “side effects” of our work together.

But the primary purpose of this workshop is to train you in shamanic and animist skills. You’ll learn how to…

  • Take a shamanic journey

  • Discover power animals for yourself and others

  • Meet with spiritual teachers for guidance and healing

  • Refine your divination skills

  • Protect and clear your energy

  • Channel spiritual healings

  • Increase your intuitive abilities

  • Discern helpful spiritual guidance from trickier energy

  • Do spirit work ethically and in ways that support greater personal integrity

  • And much more

Receive Personal Guidance & Support

To create a strong, safe container that replicates an in-person expereince as much as possible…this course will be LIVE only. No recordings will be shared.

Space is limited to ensure that you receive the attention you need.

You will have direct access to me throughout the entire workshop, and everyone will have ample time to ask questions and receive personal feedback.

This is a rare opportunity to spend time in a sacred circle, to create community beyond the confines of our physical space, and to dive into deep work together.

Who is this for?

This is for anyone who wants to deepen their connection with spirit and the Earth, learn shamanic skills for healing self and other, and gain greater self trust through spiritual rewilding.

Everyone is welcome.

Those looking for personal growth will deepen their spiritual understanding of life and self, while those working in healing professions will learn to make their existing work even more effective.

Beginners will find a safe and supportive environment with plenty of personal support. More experienced practitioners will benefit from the power of our container to explore new depths of practice.


This is for you if…

  • You are a coach, massage therapist, counselor, or healer

  • You want about shamanism and shamanic practices

  • You feel called to heal others with spiritual and energetic techniques

  • You love the Earth and want to learn how to connect more deeply with nature

  • You are able to self-regulate and tend your own nervous system as needed

  • You have an open heart and open mind

  • You’ve been studying shamanic arts for a long time and are excited to go deeper in community 

  • You’re new to all of this, maybe even worried you won’t be able to do it, but you feel a calling—trust that!

This is not for you if…

  • You’re not interested in shamanism specifically—this is a shamanic workshop

  • You’re not willing to have an open mind and explore new ideas—an open mind is the only real requirement for this!

  • You’re expecting psychedelics—you will learn skills that can support psychedelic integration, but we won’t be partaking during this workshop

  • You’re experiencing severe trauma and are unable to self-regulate

  • You’re primary goal is personal healing—this workshop is focused on cultivating skills, not receiving personal healing

Note: This workshop also serves as the Introduction to Shamanism prerequisite for additional training with me (including Soul Retrieval, Death & Dying, and Extraction Training), as well as any of Sandra Ingerman’s advanced courses or trainings.

Your Guide

Juniper Stokes

Welcome! I’m Juniper Stokes, and I am devoted to supporting you on your journey of connecting to nature, spirit, and the cosmos.

I’ve been studying, practicing, and teaching spiritual rewilding and shamanism for over two decades.

Along the way, I’ve completed a 3-year shamanic practitioner training, two-year teacher training with Sandra Ingerman, and extensive study with Betsy Bergstrom. I also have formal training in Mayan, Norse, Celtic, Taoist, and Egyptian animist practices, as well as Western magic traditions.

I am always learning, and I’m here to support you no matter what traditions you come from or are drawn to.

You are the expert of your own spiritual path. I believe that diversity is a gift to any circle, and welcome those from all walks of life to join my trainings.

Integrity and service are at the heart of my offerings…as is joy! This is serious work and we don’t shy from shadow, but we do laugh our way though.

I can’t wait to meet you!

FAQs

  • This online course differs slightly from the in-person version I offer in Bend, OR.

    This workshop focuses on your personal relationship with spirit, healing skills, and the foundational wisdom you'll need for advanced courses!

    The in-person workshop is 3 days instead of 2, which gives us time to learn middle world journeys and nature communication.

    To avoid spending too much time online, we'll only include those elements if we have extra time in this course.

  • This workshop is for you! This is the basic, foundational workshop for all other trainings, so it’s designed with total beginners in mind.

    I have been helping students and clients learn how to journey and access spiritual wisdom for two decades. You will enter into a safe, judgment-free zone filled with spiritual support for your learning.

  • If you’ve been on the path awhile, you know that there are always more layers to explore. Come with an open mind and bring your questions, as our small group will allow for personal mentorship.

    That said, if you are going to be bored out of your mind by talks on power animals, shamanic illness, and the clairs, maybe this isn’t for you. Feel free to reach out directly if you’re unsure—I’m happy to help!

  • This course serves as a prerequisite for all advanced shamanic trainings, including Sandra’s next Shamanic Teacher Training, which begins in April 2025 (and which I will be assisting at!). Advanced courses include: Soul Retrieval, Extraction, Death & Dying, Medicine for the Earth, and Healing with Spiritual Light.

    This course also serves as a prerequisite for my trainings in plant communication, land healing, energy hygiene and psychic protection, depossession, and more.

  • I'll be offering both the in-person version of this course in Spring 2025. If there's enough interest, I may offer the online version in Winter 2025.

  • At this time, I’m unable to offer scholarships, but you can save with early bird pricing through August 1st!

  • I'm unable to offer refunds at this time.

  • Feel free to email me at juniper@alchemessence.com or schedule a free 20 minute call here.

We acknowledge that this workshop takes place on land ceded under pressure to Oregon Territory in the Treaty of 1855 by Paiute, Wasco, and Warm Springs tribal chiefs. May our work be in service to the benevolent beings who still tend this sacred land.
