Shaman Shares The Tactics Of Mindfulness

People like yourself, you know are threading in consciousness and mindfulness into the business structure and into the environment and that’s one of the most amazing things that I have been witness to in my experience since I came out of the… spiritual closet and you know have been a very public figure Shaman Welcome to Conversations With People Smarter Than Me today. 

My guest is Alyson she’s a Shaman and I’m very, very happy to meet her so I can learn what is a Shaman The way I do it is…  I use a big buffalo drum or a rattle this isn’t my normal shamanicrattle for journeying. but I guide the meditation through having people connect to a constant rhythmic medicinal sound via a high vibration instrument. I will drum continuously and guide you on a meditative journey.

No, you know, I’ve been in New York no time to rest in New York. This is a tuning fork and again, you know have this in your desk or whatever you hit it and then you just place.

I know, right and then I also was a hip hop radio show host and so people are like wait a second you went from that to this but it really has been a wild trippy journey and there’s still times where  I’m like “Wow, this is my truth” I had an awakening moment via a relationship with my ex-fiance Oh yes?
