RHINEBECK, NY, March 02, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Streaming live on the Voice America Network (www.voiceamerica.com) on Wednesday, March 4 at 2 p.m. Pacific time/5 p.m. Eastern time, on her show "Why Shamanism Now?", Christina Pratt asks the question: What does it take to truly and fully live a life of Authenticity and Purpose? According to Pratt, it isn't enough to start focusing your intention now and using your mind to make a new life happen; there is a place for the mind and its clarity. The much more powerful organ of manifestation is the Heart.

This week Pratt begins a four-part series exploring the four aspects of the self that must work together for you to discover your soul's true purpose and to live it. The heart offers powers to clear out addictive patterns. This gives us access to shamanic skills to work with Life-Death-Rebirth intentionally to clear the way and create energy for the new. As we manifest the new, fear, resistance and Shadow always arise. In this episode of "Why Shamanism Now", Pratt explores the many ways that looking at fear and shadow from a shamanic -- not a psychological perspective -- can make the path through that scary place obvious, probably challenging, but ultimately joyful.

Christina Pratt is an authentic, non-traditional contemporary shaman. In practice since 1990, she specializes in mending the soul and transforming the parts of life that feel impossible. A teacher of exceptional clarity, humor, and inspiration, Pratt brings the power of shamanism into the practical grasp of anyone willing to take responsibility for improving the quality of their life. Her well-received book, An Encyclopedia of Shamanism (Rosen), is an 800 page, two-volume set with over 750 in-depth entries that clearly discuss the basic concepts of shamanism, methods, and traditions of over 50 different shamanic peoples. Pratt is the creator of the original Foundations of Shamanism and Shamanic Healing course at the University of Minnesota and a frequent and honored speaker for the American Holistic Medical Association.
