Lena's journey of embodying the shamanic path has been activated by deep initiations of loss and change. It's been both an awe-inspiring and humbling journey, requiring the courage to dive deep into the layers of fear-based falseness in order to excavate the truth of what it means to be a shaman. The truth is, there are so many misconceptions about shamanism~ what it is, what it isn't, and what does it mean to embody this path authentically?
