Circle of Shamanic Practitioners Annual Meeting (Live Stream)

The Circle of Shamanic Practitioners Annual Meeting is a live-streamed spiritual gathering for certified practitioners of Applied Shamanism. It is open to those who have completed the Advanced Applied Shamanic Studies certificate, and attendance is strongly encouraged for active Applied Shamanic Practitioners. The event is led by Isa Gucciardi and is offered through distance learning from Berkeley, California.

What to Expect

The meeting is a single three-hour session held online on a Sunday, from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm Pacific Time (7:00 pm to 10:00 pm Eastern Time). It is delivered entirely as a live stream, so you can take part from wherever you are. The session is held in English.

As an annual meeting of a practitioner community, it is a gathering for people who already share the training and the language of Applied Shamanism, rather than an introduction to the tradition.

About Isa Gucciardi

Isa Gucciardi, Ph.D., is the Founding Director of the Foundation of the Sacred Stream, a non-profit school for consciousness studies in Berkeley, California, founded in 2002. She is the creator of Depth Hypnosis, a therapeutic model, and the author of Coming to Peace.

Her path into this work began early. She spent most of her early years in other countries before moving to the United States as a teenager, and she was struck by how little people around her wanted to talk about death. Reading Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's On Death and Dying in the early seventies came as a relief. Years of volunteering in hospice settings, including the Zen Hospice Project, led her to a view she still holds: everyone grieves in their own way, and the most helpful thing is often to sit quietly and offer a non-judgmental space.

Before You Go

Attendance is restricted to people who have completed the Advanced Applied Shamanic Studies certificate. If you are an active Applied Shamanic Practitioner, you are strongly encouraged to be there.

Your access to the live-stream session is included. Because the session is listed in both Pacific and Eastern time, check which one matches your own clock before the day, and plan for the full three hours.
