EPISODE 3 – AUGUST 29, 2022
Christa is a psychologist, therapist, shamanic teacher, Earth activist and author of three acclaimed books about shamanism and therapeutic shamanism.
After working for many years internationally as a complex trauma specialist and lecturer, and two transformational near-death experiences, she decided, approaching middle age, to follow her deeper calling by apprenticing to indigenous teachers in South and North America and learning from shamanic teachers around the world. Christa now sees herself as a ‘Shamanic Teacher, Modern Medicine Woman and Sacred Activist’. She is the founder of ‘Bridging the Worlds’, which trains therapeutic professionals in shamanic approaches and co-founder of ‘Women Weaving Change’, a training school for modern Medicine Women which focusses on exploring, embodying and empowering the feminine, enabling women to bring their gifts to the fore and into the world. Three years ago, prompted by the ecological destruction and climate change, she co-created ‘Sacred Earth Activism’, an organisation that brings together activists and earth wisdom teachers and integrates shamanic practices – such as ancestral work, dreaming, visioning and ceremony – into direct action on the ground.
Christa hopes that the various strands of her work contribute to the necessary individual and collective re-connection to earth, spirit and the deeper wisdom we carry as well as the necessary expansion of consciousness and an overall shift in paradigm.
