Step into a sacred, drum-led space to reconnect with your inner wisdom, spirit guides, and ancestral support. This introductory shamanic healing experience weaves traditional drumming with gentle, practical teachings so you can feel grounded, clear, and energetically renewed—whether you’re brand new to shamanism or deepening an existing practice.
Shamanic Journey Drumming Session Includes:
Arrival & Intention – Brief check-in to understand your focus (healing, guidance, release, clarity).- Energetic Cleansing – Cleanse & brighten your aura using traditional sacred shamanic herbs for smudging. (smudging online not possible, so instead we will cleanse using other methods).
- Drum Introduction – Learn to play and work with the shamanic drum: rhythm, and holding a clear intention.
- Deep Grounding & Calm – reset the nervous system with steady, rhythmic drumming.
- Practise energy clearing for spaces—using the drum, intention, and simple rituals to harmonise your home or workplace.
- Guided Shamanic Journey to Meet Your Power Animal and/or Ancestors – Lie or sit comfortably. I drum a steady beat while guiding you to the lower or upper world to meet your power animal and/or connect with ancestors. Receive insightful messages, healing, protection and healing guidance.
- Energy Balancing & Seal – Gentle re-grounding, sealing the work so you leave centred and clear.
- Integration – Reflection and simple after-care recommendations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I Need Any Experience to Go On a Shamanic Journey?
No. Beginners and experienced seekers are equally welcome. I guide you step by step.
Is Online Shamanic Healing Drum Effective?
Yes. The drum beat and guided journey translate beautifully online with good audio. Many clients love doing this in the comfort of their own space.
What If I Don’t Have a Shamanic Drum?
No problem. If you dont have a drum, I can provide a drum and beater. For online appointments, then the appointment is adapted so i provide the drumming for you to go on shamanic journey. If you have your own drum/rattle, you’re welcome to bring/use it.
What If I Don’t “See” Anything?
Guidance can arrive as feelings, images, words, memories, or simply a sense of knowing. You’ll receive what’s right for you; I’ll help you interpret it.
I’m Sensitive To Sound/Smoke. Can I Still Come?
Absolutely. I can adjust volume/tempo and use smokeless, scent-free cleansing. Please mention sensitivities in advance.
Is This Religious?
No. Shamanic practice is a nature-based, experiential path that can sit alongside any (or no) belief system.
How Often Should I Book?
Some book a single 90-minute journey; others come monthly or combine shamanic work with coaching.
Any Contraindications?
- If you have a history of photosensitive epilepsy, sound-trigger sensitivities, or complex trauma, please tell me beforehand so I can adapt the pace and method.
- If you are sensitive to smoke/fragrance, let Jo know in advance so your session can be tailored for you.
- If you are pregnant, then please contact Jo to discuss prior to booking.
- Always follow medical guidance.
What Should I Wear?
Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a smile!
Richmond Location?

After-Care:
Drink water, rest if you can, and notice shifts over the next 48 hours. Gentle grounding (fresh air, warm bath, journalling) can help integration.
Kind Note:
Shamanic journey and shamanic healing is a complementary practice and not a substitute for medical care. Please follow your healthcare provider’s advice.
