CAROLINE talks today about the true essence of Shamanism, and its relationship to religion. Among the wisdom traditions, Shamanism is the premier method of bringing body, mind, and spirit into balance, and restoring power, health, and harmony to a person's life as well as to Mother Nature, and all our relations. It has been praised and vilified, misunderstood and condemned, but it has survived and weathered the test of time for over 40,000 years.

Lorraine Simone, also known as DEEP ARROW WOMAN, is our guest this week. She is a well known speaker, visionary, and Shamanic teacher who bridges the gap between the mystery of living a spiritual life, and the nitty gritty of dealing with being here now in a technologically advanced Western society. In 1990, she founded the Moonfire Meeting House, and in 1995, she created the Women's Ways Mystery School to empower women and girls to heal their lives and change the world.
