"Real Life Is Messy" on August 14 "Why Shamanism Now?" Radio Show with Host Christina Pratt

On her radio "Why Shamanism Now? A Practical Path to Authenticity", teacher, author and shaman Christina Pratt talks about the necessity to get outside of our comfort zones in order to become more conscious and live and learn more deeply.

2012-08-14
JERSEY CITY, NJ, August 14, 2012 (Press-News.org) Streaming live on the Co-Creator Radio Network on Tuesday, August 14, at 11 a.m. Pacific time/2 p.m. Eastern time, on her show "Why Shamanism Now?: A Practical Path to Authenticity," shaman and founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing Christina Pratt tells listeners that if we live in our comfort zone, the "to do" list gets done, all the bills get paid on time, and you never have your driver's license suspended because the speeding ticket you got from the traffic robot was sent to your old address so you never knew. And if we live in our comfort zone, we are living where we are already dead. "Without discomfort, there is no warriorship, and without warriorship, there is no life," says Pratt. "Life happens at the interface of our comfort and discomfort zones. It is that daily step into discomfort that takes us into where we are becoming, awakening, and aligning our life with a clearer consciousness of who self." And into where we often make a mess because we are learning. Pratt explains that the messiness of life is a great gift. It helps us to know where Life as the Teacher is schooling us, how to craft a powerful question for our journeys, and precisely how our heart spirit is calling us into deeper alignment with our True Self.

In this episode of "Why Shamanism Now?" titled "Real Life Is Messy", Pratt explores the many ways to use the mess we have made of our lives and our shamanic skills to divine a clear and effective path forward for whole-hearted living and joyous well-being.

Christina Pratt is an authentic, non-traditional contemporary shaman. In practice since 1990, she specializes in mending the soul and transforming the parts of life that feel impossible. A teacher of exceptional clarity, humor, and inspiration, Pratt brings the power of shamanism into the practical grasp of anyone willing to take responsibility for improving the quality of their life. Her well-received book, An Encyclopedia of Shamanism (Rosen), is an 800-page, two-volume set with over 750 in-depth entries that clearly discuss the basic concepts of shamanism, methods, and traditions of over 50 different shamanic peoples. Pratt is the founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing in Portland, OR, and New York, NY, creator of the original Foundations of Shamanism and Shamanic Healing course at the University of Minnesota, and a frequent and honored speaker for the American Holistic Medical Association.
