The focus in the modern world has been on the shaman as a person who goes into a trance and does healings.

And that is true, and that's the way that I work and it's how I teach.

It's how we ground to the earth and how we work with the elements and being brought up in a way where we are in honor and gratitude for our life and understand the connection that everything is alive and that we're connected to a web of life.

In a traditional culture, spirituality was something that was taught from as soon as you were born.

We're so locked into our mind and the rational world and the scientific world that when we have a spiritual experience, it can literally blow somebody's mind and they don't know what to do with it.

And so what happens for people is what we call a spiritual emergency.

A spiritual opening psychosis is an initiation into an expanded state of consciousness.

And what's needed instead of state stigmatizing people and giving them labels is to give people tools to learn how to ground and to work with these expanded states of consciousness.

I really do believe so much of the mental illness that people are experiencing today actually comes from our disconnection from nature.

Western medicine is treating it is through medication.

And what all that's doing is it's damping down the fire even more of spirit.

What we need to do is start to blow some life on that spiritual fire that lives inside of us and learn how to be creative and to realize that we have the gifts, the talents, the strengths to create a life filled with meaning and passion.

I just think it's really important for people to find some spiritual path.

It could be yoga, it could be Tai Chi, it could be meditation.

Some spiritual path that opens people up to their own creative impulse and to their own spiritual power, to their own intuitive abilities.

We were all born with these incredible intuitive abilities.

And as we learn how, how to express our own intuition and to realize that we are all creative, we were all born creative and to express creativity, I think most of the mental illness that we're seeing right now would be taken care of.
