Quynn Elizabeth
Modern Shamanic Practitioner and Nature Traveler

“I would like to recommend Quynn Elizabeth as an outstanding shamanist. I have worked with Quynn for three years and have made great progress...Quynn serves as a catalyst to help an individual bring forth their shaman-self and to guide a person to develop in a way best for them. I respect her and trust her to help me see for myself my way in spirit.” R. Underwood, M.Ed

Quynn grew up in American culture but as she moved into adulthood, she stopped feeling at home within many aspects of it. Her early twenties were filled with inner discontent and searching.  In her mid twenties she had a profound and suprising spiritual experience that changed her perspective of the world, both in her mind and in the physical plane. After years of listening within for guidance from inner teachers, and finding humans to teach her what they could, she was told to find a way to share what had happened to her. She realized that she wasn’t the only one, others were experiencing this calling, as people always had been. 

In 1999 she founded of The Institute for the Shamanic Arts to help folks connect with their inner world, in their own unique way.   She offers workshops, lectures and individual sessions while she travels extensively throughout the western lands.  She is also the co-founder of Art for the Sixth Extinction, an organization that encourages documentation, discussion and making art about the mass extinction that is happening on Earth right now.

Quynn Elizabeth grew up in the west and while her DNA is not from the western lands of what is called the “United States”, she honors it as home. 

While Quynn considers herself a woman of no particular lineage, she acknowledges and honors her human ancestors of Europe, Africa and Southeast North American, as well as those of the animal people.

In her own tradition, Quynn does not call herself a “shaman”, she is called “oolah”-one who balances.  She is of the Butterfly People, Raven Clan and Beaver Lodge.  Aya!

What is your tradition? That is why Shamanworld is here!

Hello friends,
Quynn Elizabeth here. A Shamanic practitioner’s role is to serve the needs of her tribe.  In the many cultures of the past, this role might look very different, yet usually ends up being similar. A “shaman” is called on to help her people stay healthy, help them fix any wrongs that cause sickness, and ultimately to help the group stay in the flow of the Godds/Multiverse/Nature.

In our times, and in our culture, many have been told that modern people are no longer called to be the equivalent of a “shaman”, (whatever you may call him/her).  Since I have been called, seemingly without me seeking it out, I would say that folks in our culture, every culture, ARE called to shamanize. 
So, I am finding ways to plug into the multifaceted nature of our humanity, and the world around us, using the tools that we modern folks have. A few of these tools include drums and techno, websites and friction firemaking, living in a van and using digital video.  Apparently, the possiblities seem endless.

I may look like just another American, and I suppose I am, yet I am also an ecstacy seeking, Earth loving, multidimensional being, as are YOU. 

Viva Shamana!

The power of Shamana
shows you how to find
that you can go anywhere
with the power of your mind.

This thing we call Imagination
has been on the decline
because we think what happens there is “only in our mind”.
But the power to imagine
can take us near and far
to all the dreamlike places-
where our helpers are.

Go there, Come back.
Listen to what they say.
Bring back healing love notes
that inspire us to pray
for health, peace and balance
in ourselves and within our tribe.
When we balance ourselves, our spirit worlds speak
and all life on this planet thrives.
Poem by Quynn
