Shamanic practices to restore our relationship with nature, community, and self

• Explores the GROVE principles—Give, Revere, Organize, Value, Embody—as an ethical framework for grounded, earth-based living

• Reveals practical tools for shamanic journeying, shapeshifting, ritual design, and intuitive perception across multiple sensory channels

• Offers guidance for applying shamanic wisdom to everyday life, including the workplace, home, relationships, grief, and community

Shamanism offers a living, practical toolkit for navigating the pressures and possibilities of contemporary life. Renee Baribeau shows readers how ancient nature-based wisdom translates directly into better decisions at work, more meaningful rituals in the kitchen, deeper presence in relationships, and stronger, more resilient communities.

Drawing on three decades of shamanic practice, the author shares WindWork, her nature-based framework for navigating change, alongside teachings from Q’ero, Lakota, Mapuche, and Andean traditions. You will learn to develop intuitive perception, journey to inner realms, and work with power objects. The GROVE principles—Give, Revere, Organize, Value, Embody—provide an accessible ethical structure for daily life, from managing shared resources to tending family bonds.

With step-by-step practices, Baribeau shows how you can bring shamanic awareness to leadership and the workplace, create a sacred home, travel with intention, navigate grief and heartbreak, cook with ceremony, and strengthen family and community through ritual. This is a philosophical and hands-on manual for those seeking to heal themselves, tend their communities, and become good ancestors to the generations that follow.
