Ahalya is a great teacher! She makes the steps very easy to follow and free-flowing... You'll feel safe with her. She's very practical and grounded. You'll get to have a lot of real-life exercises to practice with and validate your skills and at the end of the course, you'll feel empowered to either add this to your current offering or even start one if you're thinking of it.

I am in a very challenging relationship that involves distance and physical illness. I was feeling exhausted, non nurtured, and lonely. Out of the Shamanic Immersion I find myself stronger and in a commited dedication to inner peace. Thank you for allowing me to experience it all. I feel a lot of self-transformation. Right now I'm still integrating and processing everything but I feel empowered, connected and most of all grateful for such wonderful experiences with such great people. It's worth every second of it. I have never experienced this level of magick before.

My favorite part of the Immersion was participating in all the healing sessions. I also enjoyed the Q & A. Before I went I was having trouble having confidence in knowing what I would pick up in my sessions was significant or relevant to the client. I had self dought in my abilities. After the course I feel more confident and I know that what I do get is what the client can grow from. I have more self awareness and I have more confidences in offering sessions. I recommend DO IT! You will have a wonderful experience.

Before the Shamanic Immersion I was full of Self-doubt and perfectionist tendencies. I felt like a constant failure or as if I was falling short. After completing the Immersion, I realized I am much more capable than I give myself credit for and it is okay to have doubts, as long as I do not let them hold me back. I love how open-ended the journeys were explained, as that truly allowed for our individual experiences to be unique and self-guided rather than being guided by our perceived ideas about what we were "supposed" to experience. Ahalya really excels at encouraging each student to find their own style, symbols, experiences etc and does not, consciously or unconsciously, impose her own biases, beliefs, experiences onto anyone. So much encouragement, support and personal empowerment!
