Soul Retrieval: The Shamanic Art of Becoming Whole

September 25-29, 2024
Sisters, Oregon

A 5-day Professional Training

Within shamanism, Soul Retrieval is one of our most profound and sacred healing practices.

In this intensive professional training, you will learn the art and practice of Soul Retrieval.  

This workshop is for experienced shamanic practitioners who want to restore wholeness for clients and community. You will learn:

  • Diagnosis

  • Soul retrieval practices and principles

  • Client care and how to support integration

  • Soul Retrieval for the land

  • IFS perspectives and parts work

  • And more as time allows!

This workshop is ideal for shamanic practitioners, therapists, coaches, and healers who are looking to offer deeper, more comprehensive healing for their clients.

This workshop is also ideal for anyone who feels called to the shamanic path, wishes to offer healing for the Earth and our animal kin, or simply wants to expand and brighten their light as a spiritual being.

Receive Personal Guidance & Support

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.

As fun as it is to study with someone as popular as Sandra Ingerman (I know—she’s been my direct mentor for 5+ years!), you can get lost in bigger groups.

This is a really special opportunity to receive Sandra’s direct teachings, as well as my personal techniques developed in partnership with spirit, in an intimate, personalized setting.

★If you do wish to study with Sandra, this training fulfills her official Soul Retrieval prerequisite.★

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.

I’m also a recommended teacher and approved to teach advanced shamanic workshops by Sandra Ingerman.

Over the years, 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.

In addition to teaching, I’ve been supporting clients with shamanic healing, spiritual counsel, and depth coaching since 2017.

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!

“I am delighted Juniper Stokes has brought her work out into the world. Juniper has a real gift for all she passionately offers. Anyone taking a workshop, seeing Juniper as a client, or buying some of her sacred herbal products will be introduced to fresh ideas, a compassionate and brilliant practitioner and teacher, and a path back to balance and healing. Juniper’s work is exceptional!”

Who is this for?

This is for you if…

  • You have a strong foundation in shamanism and are looking for deeper skills

  • You have a strong journey practice and deep relationships with your spirit helpers

  • You know how to do power animal retrievals for others

  • You are experienced in the art of shamanic divination

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

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

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

This is not for you if…

  • You’re a complete beginner in shamanism. This is an advanced training.

  • 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 overly attached to psychologizing our experience—Soul Retrieval is spiritual healing

  • 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

A 5-Day Experience in Beautiful Sisters, OR

The small mountain town of Sisters is located just north of Bend, a short ride from the airport and just a couple hours from Portland. A tourist destination, Sisters is home to gorgeous hiking trails and a Western-chic artsy downtown with the Three Sisters mountains in the background.

Our workshop will take place on six acres of private land, filled with healing gardens and a shamanic yurt. It’s an amazingly high-vibe location that we are blessed to have access to.

Traveling here? Limited accommodation is available for an additional cost, and I’m happy to help facilitate shared car rentals for students.

FAQs

  • I’ll review applications in the order I receive them. You should know within a week. If we haven’t worked together before, I may like to schedule a follow-up call before confirming your acceptance.

    Your spot will be officially reserved upon payment :)

  • Maybe. I love teaching Soul Retrieval in person, but online has its advantages too. If there is enough interest, I’m open to offering an online version.

  • Nope. This isn’t residential—you’ll need to find a place to stay if you’re coming from outside the area. I’m happy to connect you with other students and make recommendations to help :)

    And it’s also not a retreat! You will learn so much, and it will be so fun…but you will also probably finish each day totally exhausted. And you will love it!

  • I’m unable to offer refunds for cancellations at this time. Please be sure of your commitment before you pay. I recommend that you purchase travel insurance, as well.

  • If you have the resources and the bandwidth, I wholeheartedly recommend doing both!

    The yearlong training will include review of everything you learn during this workshop, but it will go so much deeper. Taking this first will give you a strong foundation and greater confidence during the longer training.

    If you can’t commit to both, think about your goals. This is a one-time training that you’ll be able to utilize in your practice right away. The yearlong will include much more practice and client care skills for soul retrieval, plus so many more shamanic techniques, preparing you to work professionally as a shamanic healer.

  • There are many ways you can fulfill the prerequisites. If there’s enough interest, I may offer an online intro course to help more students become eligible. Please let me know if you’d like support in preparing for this training.

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.
