In this blog, I’ll cover some frequently asked questions about the process, including what can happen in a journey, integration, healing, and more.
In a journey session, I journey for you. First, if you’re interested in learning how to journey for yourself, check out my Way Circle and apprenticeship programs on my website, where you can also find client testimonials describing their experiences.
A shamanic journey can be for anything – whether you’re curious or need help with a specific mental, emotional, or spiritual issue. What I’ve often heard from clients is that things begin to shift even before the session. This is because, in the spirit realm where we work, there’s no linear time. The healing starts the moment you decide to begin, and our session is just the center of a much larger movement towards your desired outcome. If this happens, embrace it!
Anyone can experience a journey regardless of age, gender, religion, sexuality, or health status. I don’t use psychedelics or plant substances, so there are no negative side effects. The goal of journey work is to restore you to your natural state: sovereign, whole, thriving, and abundant.
Every journey is unique. Even when I journey for the same person at different times, the experiences can vary greatly. The purpose is to shift energy towards your highest vibrational outcome. This process connects us on a soul level, allowing us to explore hidden aspects of ourselves and help you move towards your desired outcome.
At the core of healing and journey work is soul retrieval. Trauma can cause the soul to fragment, which affects our present day life, no matter how long ago the trauma occurred. Journeying helps us go to the root of this trauma, aiding in integration and gentle healing. This method has proven to be effective and safe, allowing us to address unaligned energies and remove ancestral attachments.
Our journey session
During a session, I journey remotely while you rest or engage in any activity that feels right for you. We usually connect via a call, discuss what’s going on, and set an intention for the journey. After the journey, we discuss what came up, which usually takes about two hours in total. There’s no need for physical proximity, as the quantum realm transcends time and physical space.
In case you feel nervous: there’s no need to be! Anything that comes up is simply an opportunity for healing and expansion. Journeying and healing deepen self-love and compassion, so try to release any expectations about what should or shouldn’t happen. Trust that the process is already set in motion and that everything will unfold as needed.
Remember: healing is not linear. It happens in layers and on its own timeline, according to source’s intelligence. Give yourself the time and space to integrate the healing in a supportive, holistic way. Celebrate your journey, your growth, and your commitment to reuniting with your higher self. Integration can take time, but the best way to support it is through celebration. Celebrate your commitment to your own healing, and the integration of soul parts.
I recommend doing a journey at least once, but many clients choose to journey regularly to continue their healing and growth. The best place to start is by signing up for my free newsletter and listening to The Way Shamanism podcast, exploring my offerings in the Way Academy, and if you feel ready, booking a journey or program that resonates with you.
I look forward to supporting you on your healing journey, whether through my free podcast episodes, newsletters, or our one-on-one work together.
Love,
Jessica
