Safely, aligned, in lineage.
Begin the training and continue with a mentorship and integration process lasting over a year.

"Spirituality and Shamanism are 2 different things. Spirituality is the beginning of awakening, while Shamanism teaches you the mechanics of neutrality and detachment, to make use of everything the divine has given you on your path from Awakening to Enlightenment.The deeper your roots of awareness, the taller the tree of your consciousness.
A Hampeq is a Shaman of Pachamama and every force in nature. Pachamama herself flows through you as a Hampeq"
Andres Ya'el
Altomissayoq, Andean Q'ero Lineage
