- Re-discover your personal power in ‘Ayni’, right relationship.
- Connect with the lineage rites of the medicine men and women from the Inca tradition.
- Embark on a journey of Mentoring, supported by elders who have made this journey for many years.
- Connect with your ‘Allyu’, your tribe of journeyers as you make your way around this Medicine Wheel.
- Learn transformational healing techniques that you can share with others
The Path of Beauty
All indigenous cultures have a Medicine Wheel that represents the cycles of life we undertake during our time on Earth. It’s a map of human consciousness that guides you closer to your true self—who you are meant to be.
This path of initiations, rooted in the Earthkeeper tradition from the Sacred Valley of Peru, has been handed down by the medicine men and women of the Inca tradition. As you move through the rites and initiations of the Medicine Wheel, your luminous energy field is prepared for the times of great change and transformation that are now upon us. This is your calling to play an essential part in this moment of evolution.
Embark on your personal healing journey with us as you move through the four directions of the Medicine Wheel.

“I embarked on the Medicine Wheel training with an element of skepticism. I had no concept that this was the beginning of what was to become the most powerful and painfully beautiful journey. But the skill, experience and presence of Chris, the team, and the archetypical energies we work with created and maintained the safest and most sacred space to do our work. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for showing me the way!”

Take your place around the fire
Our Medicine Wheel & Healing Tools shamanic practitioner training programme consists of four modules, which take place over the course of a year; this year’s training starts soon!
- Fri 11 – Wed 16 April ~ Module 1: The Way of The Empath – Archetype of Serpent (South direction)
- Fri 11 – Wed 16 July ~ Module 2: The Way of the Peacemaker – Archetype of Jaguar (West direction)
- Fri 24 – Wed 29 October ~ Module 3: The Way of the Alchemist – Archetype of Hummingbird (North direction)
- Fri 6 – Wed 11 February 2026 ~ Module 4: The Way of the Visionary – Archetype of Eagle/Condor (East direction)
A year-long journey
Each of the four modules is a 6-day journey. The first three days, known as the Medicine Wheel, focus on your personal healing journey where you’ll create your Mesa (medicine bundle).
In each direction, you’ll work with stones that have called to you, representing your personal healing work and the transformation of sacred wounds into personal power. Stones, which have been used as record keepers throughout history, serve as tools for ancient altars and hold deep significance. Your Mesa, eventually containing 13 medicine stones, becomes your personal altar of transformation, embodying the healing medicine you’ve cultivated through deep processes in each direction. This medicine evolves into the unique gift you offer to the world.
The last three days of each module are dedicated to learning the Healing Tools necessary to become a shamanic practitioner. These transformative energy healing techniques are powerful, even if you choose not to practice professionally. Assisting in another’s healing accelerates your own healing, and brings presence, self-confidence, and a deep sense of purpose. The energy medicine you acquire will stay with you, ensuring a meaningful and fulfilling life, regardless of your chosen path.
Each module builds on the previous modules, and must be taken in order, within one year – if this is the first time you are joining us. Once you have completed your training, you’ll have the possibility to join either an entire year (which we recommend), or sometimes there is a module that you wish to repeat.
