Shamanism for the Rest of Us: A talk with Shamanic Practitioner and author Sara Violante about modern ways to approach the ancient tradition of connecting to spirit allies for healing, wisdom, and support.

Book available for purchase at event.

You don't have to fit the mold to find meaning. Shamanism for the Rest of Us is a practical, compassionate guide for those who long for spiritual connection but don't feel at home in traditional or "New Age" spaces. Sara Violante – experienced Shamanic Practitioner, teacher, author, and speaker – offers a refreshingly grounded approach to working with the unseen world. She gently challenges the idea that you must look, talk, act, or believe a certain way to engage in meaningful spiritual practice. Instead, she encourages readers to trust their inner wisdom, work with what resonates, and honor the discomfort that often accompanies true growth.

Come and hear Sara discuss the reason for writing her book, why she hopes those who

have been curious will give it a try, why she wants folks who have previously tried Journeying with little or no success to consider trying again, and what is to be gained from connecting to spirit allies. Bring your questions! Sara will also lead attendees through a guided meditation designed to illustrate a typical first foray into Journeying.

Sara Violante is a highly respected Shamanic Practitioner, educator, and speaker with over 25 years of experience in spiritual guidance and personal transformation. As a mentor and teacher, she is known for her ability to distill complex spiritual concepts into practical wisdom that resonates with a modern audience. Her work bridges the gap between ancient Shamanic traditions and contemporary life, empowering individuals to cultivate intuition, creativity, and deep healing. Sara’s work is rooted in the belief that healing and spiritual connectivity are innate gifts, available to all who seek them.
