Shamanu:
Earth Wisdom Teachings
A Pathway of Remembering, Belonging & Living in Resonance with Life
We live in a time shaped by the echoes of collective trauma, the weight of ancestral conditioning, and patterns passed down through generations. Much of the modern world keeps us disconnected from our bodies, from each other, and from the living Earth that sustains us.
And yet, beneath the noise, something in us remembers.
There is a quiet longing many of us carry - a sense that we are meant to feel more alive, more connected, more in tune with the pulse of life.
Within us lives a primal intelligence, ancient, unbroken, and waiting. It whispers us home, calling us to realign with the deeper rhythms that have always been our foundation.
An Invitation to Return
Shamanu is an invitation to return to that wild intelligence.
It is a living path into relationship with the rhythms of Earth, the Cosmic forces, and the elemental dance of Air, Fire, Water, Earth, and Spirit that shapes our being.
This is not a path of escape. Shamanu honours the full spectrum of the human experience — including the shadows of collective pain, while offering a framework to move beyond it. It is a pathway of remembrance for those who long to be part of a new story born from our interrelationship with a living, loving Earth.
Not one bound by the past, but one born from our direct, embodied connection to life itself.
Rooted in Wisdom, Alive in the Body
Created in 1989 by Lorenna Bousquet-Kacera, a Métis Elder, Earth ceremonialist, and ecosomatic practitioner. Shamanu is a living, breathing art. It is woven from the wisdom of the land and the deep listening of the body.
Rooted in ancient knowing and informed by embodied practice, Shamanu awakens the recognition that our bodies, hearts, and minds are intertwined with the cycles of nature, the dance of the elements, and the pulse of the cosmos. When we step into this awareness, something shifts.
Practices of Belonging
Through Eco-somatic processes, Earth-based rituals, visionary journeys, Deep Ecology and soul-centred guidance, Shamanu invites you to:
Shed layers of conditioned patterning
Reclaim your intuitive wisdom and vitality
Remember your innate belonging
Live in resonance with the cycles and rhythms of life
This is the dance of Spirit and matter, grounded in the soil of your becoming.
In this living path, each step becomes a prayer, each breath a gesture of reconnection.
A Living Relationship
Shamanu reminds us that our lives are not separate from the Earth or the cosmos, but rather an expression of the infinite intelligence that flows through all of creation.
In this remembrance, we do not merely survive; we awaken, we regenerate, and we co-create a new story - for ourselves, our communities, and the Earth. As you realign with the pulse of life, regeneration begins on every level - body, heart, spirit, and planet.
Shamanu is a pathway of reconnection where your life itself becomes both a prayer and a promise to the future.
The Invitation
Something ancient within you remembers.
The Earth remembers.
The cosmos remembers.
Shamanu is where you return —
to the living intelligence that has always been your home.
