Talk

Wednesday, May 20, 2015

Can we develop our natural intuition and become shamans ourselves? This is the question posed by Itzhak Beery in his new book The Gift of Shamanism. In conversation with expert on Siberian shaman ritual Virlana Tkacz. A book signing follows the discussion.

“Itzhak Beery is a master storyteller”¦”—Sandra Ingerman – author of Soul Retrieval and Walking in Light

“Be amazed and inspired. Above all, be open to your own powers.”—John Perkins – bestselling author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man and Shapeshifting

Marking the publication of his new book The Gift of Shamanism, Itzhak Beery compares notes with Siberian shaman expert Virlana Tkacz on his experiences with ayahuasca rituals in the Amazon, messages from power animals and plant spirits, and dreams that foretold future events.

Through his stories of visions that manifested in reality, Beery posits that we are all shamans. By igniting our natural intuition and developing trust for our inner powers, he believes we all have the innate ability to connect to the oneness of nature.
