We often separate our medicine time from "normal life" divorcing shaman work or healing workfrom everyday life, Day Jobs etc. and feel disconnected.o "This isn't who I am"o Fear of being judged as woo-woo Not having a clear sense of boundaries.o Feeling like we have to heal everything. Taking on other people's work for themWhat helps that? Setting clear intentions or visions for how you want to walk in the world You don't have to proclaim it to do it. Knowing that every interaction can be healing or depleting Your mission each day can be small. Knowing that we do our work when we show up Bring your blessings with you.Example: I bless each proposal I send out for an engineering firm I work with. I have ahigher win rate than many of my peers. Is this because I am a great writer? I am. But could italso be the secret sauce of having a shaman envision the connection as a loving win for all?(We could do more storytelling of how we have shifted things by presence and using toolsrather than a "how to")How do you bring your medicine when you work in jobs you have worked Renee?A lot of sensitive people get depleted out in the world. How do you keep from spreading yourself toothin? Prayers or space opening Having grounding and clearing practices Rituals for coming home and disconnection Compassion for being human Mentors and Friends to brain storm and debrief with.
