Healing Through Modern Shamanism with Ray Crist - EP 285

In this powerful conversation with Ray Crist, founder of the Jaguar Path School of Modern Shamanism, you will hear his incredible journey of healing and transformation. After an unexpected cancer diagnosis in 2003 and a prognosis of only 90 days, Ray was forced to re-evaluate everything he knew about life, death, and purpose. Leaving behind a successful career as a high-profile photographer, he embarked on a soul-searching pilgrimage across Mexico, Peru, and ultimately to the United States—seeking wisdom from indigenous healers and Quero elders. Ray shares how shamanic practices and modern medicine guided him through profound healing, how close brushes with death changed his life perspective, and how every moment since has been a gift. He discusses the physiology of the healing process and opens up about the power of listening within, letting go of material pursuits, and embracing a purposeful new path. Ray’s story is a transformative lesson for anyone questioning their purpose or feeling trapped by the weight of daily life. Ray Crist is a world-renowned visionary and master teacher devoted to sharing the transformative healing wisdom of shamanic traditions through The Jaguar Path School of Modern Shamanism and the Science of Healing. For over 30 years, he has dedicated himself to sharing the powerful practices he discovered, guiding others on paths of healing, balance, and spiritual growth. Through The Jaguar Path, Ray and his wife, Nina, lead a comprehensive 9-month Shamanic Certification Training, empowering participants to harness the science and soul of healing to enrich their own lives and help others with insights to yoga, tai chi, Ayurveda and Chinese medicine. In addition to the annual training, they offer virtual classes in yoga, tai chi, healing sessions, and more. Before relocating to Greece in 2022, Ray taught thousands at world-renowned wellness centers, including Kripalu, NY Open Center, and Yoga Journal Conferences.
