Beverley's Journey
On a personal level I have been on a long path of inner healing and personal growth. I have taken many workshops including Shamanic teachings, dealing with Separation and Divorce, moving on to find a higher purpose and the Ishayas’s Ascension Meditation. I have completed the 1st year of the Shamanic Coaching Program with the Institute of Shamanic Medicine.
One of the most pivotal times in my life was the deep 7 year inner journey I took to heal and reclaim lost parts of myself with a very wise Aboriginal Counsellor named Eutonnah Olsen-Dunn. During that journey of love and beauty I went on many amazing travels to my “sacred place” of inner knowing and learned much about shamanic dream work, imagery and personal reclamation.
What I learned most besides the importance of love, was always to go inside first to seek answers. Going inside, calming the mind and surrendering in trust to a higher power is what helps me most in my work and in life.
