Natural Magic

Ep #306 - Natural Magic - An Interview with shamanic practitioner, Jonathan Hammond I am honored and thrilled to welcome shamanic practitioner and author of, “The Shaman’s Mind” Jonathan Hammond to Empowering Chats. Jonathan does not readily identify with the title of “shaman” ; he prefers natural healer. Nature plays a big part in his life. It (nature) is the teacher and the co-creator, and according to Jonathan we have a lot to learn from nature. Our chat focuses on ancient wisdom that has surrounded shamans and the way they look at the world – which is universal to many of us. The basic belief is that our thoughts do create our reality. Jonathan talks about the practice of living your life as though you are “walking a shamanic path” within your current environment. This is where natural magic occurs. It is about self-advocacy, and knowing you are growing and evolving because you are part of one grand organism. We all are. The external world (nature) is in support of you and others. When living life from that perspective you open yourself up to all that is presented to you​. Jonathan believes that our road back to ourselves is the love of home and the love of the feminine. This is where we live, where ​our true soul resides. I echo these sentiments. In this powerful chat Jonathan and I touch on many wisdoms including that ​we have choice ​and it often leads to life, growth and evolution.
