Accessing the Mysteries
An 8 week course in spiritual devotion and shamanic technique
-
Connection
This experiential study is an invitation into deeper intimacy with yourself and with the spirits that move through the world around us. Whether their presence is in nature, location, land, ancestry, humanity, or the wider cosmos, we are designed to be in relationship with each other. Connection is not an accident; it is the architecture of our existence.
-
Belonging
My work is guided by the principle of belonging. I hold a deep conviction that everything has a home, a place where it belongs. Because of the constant push and pull of power - internally and externally - parts of us, and the spirits we encounter, can become displaced, trapped, bound, or simply confused. Parts of our soul, our energies, our emotions, even our intentions can lose their way. Restoring the natural order - helping each thing return to where it truly belongs - is at the heart of my practice.
-
Balance
The universe is always seeking balance. The same forces that hold the solar system in equilibrium, move the tides, and guide the cycles of death and renewal are available to help us bring harmony into our own lives and communities. When we heal ourselves, we contribute to healing the whole. We are not separate from one another; we are threaded together in ways we feel long before we fully understand them.
-
Relationship
In my sessions, you will often hear me ask an energy or spirit, “Who do you belong to? Where is home for you?” This is not a metaphor. It is relational work. Over years of practice, I have cultivated strong connections with the beings who know how to navigate the in-between worlds and who know how to find “home” for all things.
-
Healing with Integrity
This is what I offer you as a teacher. My intention is to guide you into the subtle spaces so you can help what is lost become found, and so you can be seen by the helping spirits as someone who carries integrity, confidence, skill, steadiness, and respect.
Are you looking for more than intellectual spirituality?
Do you want to deepen your relationship with the sacred and expand your intuitive abilities?
Are you a practitioner or teacher looking for tools that deepen your sessions, broaden your offerings, and improve your results with clients?
Are you looking for tools to navigate your own healing?
Are you looking for spiritual community?
Do you want to establish a ritual of devotion or sacred discipline?
Do you want a structured path to your personal spiritual evolution?
Do you want to learn how to work with energy responsibly and effectively?
Do you want to learn to work with the energy behind the scenes to create the life you want to live?
How do I know if this course is for me?
What You Will Learn
-
You will learn how to orient yourself as part of nature — not separate from it. You will learn how that orientation creates stability, clarity, and power in your healing work.
-
You will understand that nothing in this work is done alone, and you will know how to identify, call in, and collaborate with the forces that support healing.
-
You will learn who can hold spiritual “weight” with you, how to merge with these allies, and how to prevent burnout by not carrying what isn’t yours.
-
Liminality: Psychopomps often embody “in-betweenness” — they traverse borders (life/death, conscious/unconscious).
Non-judgmental Guidance: Unlike some afterlife judges, many psychopomps simply help rather than condemn.
Healing & Transition Work: In shamanic traditions, psychopomps help with soul loss, healing, and navigating transformative experiences.
Archetypal Role: In Jungian / modern spiritual frameworks, psychopomps represent the bridge or guide in inner work, across death, rebirth, or spiritual thresholds.
-
You will walk away with an internal map of your own energy system, the cosmology of the upper/middle/lower worlds, and the protective structures required to move between realms responsibly.
-
You will meet your protectors, main power ally, extraction guides, teachers, and realm ambassadors. These are functional relationships you can rely on in actual healing work.
-
You will know how to fortify your energy field, establish boundaries with spirits, and ensure that only allies have access to your system.
-
You will understand how to build altars, how to work with them as portals or multidimensional interfaces, and how to use them for distance work, learning, manifestation, and healing.
-
You will learn how to merge with spirit allies and differentiate your energy from external energy. You will learn how to merge with spirit allies to facilitate healing, channel information, and create internal templates.
-
You will know how to find objects that want to be worked with as sacred items. Learn how to imbue sacred tools with power and create spiritual constructs that continue working outside the journey state.
-
You will learn how to perform energetic extractions through listening, merging, movement, sound, and non-force methods.
-
This includes knowing when to intervene, when to step back, how to ask for consent, and how to work without becoming an “all-call” for wandering or malevolent energies.

A few years ago I completed an energy healing course with Sarah Marie, and the experience exceeded all my expectations. From the very first session, it was clear how knowledgeable, grounded, and genuinely caring they are as a teacher and practitioner.
Sarah Marie explains healing techniques in a way that is both spiritually meaningful and very practical. Complex ideas were broken down into simple, clear steps, and they always took time to answer questions thoughtfully. Their teaching style is calm, patient, and encouraging, which created a safe and supportive learning environment for everyone in the group.
The balance between theory and hands-on practice was excellent. We were guided through each technique with care, and I always felt supported and confident as I learned. Sarah Marie has a remarkable ability to make each student feel seen and respected, no matter their level of experience.
What stood out the most was the integrity and sincerity they bring to this work. You can feel that they truly live what they teach. Their presence alone is grounding and reassuring, and the attunements were powerful, moving, and handled with great sensitivity.
I left the course feeling more connected to myself, more confident in offering energy healing to others, and deeply inspired to continue on this path. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah Marie to anyone interested in learning energy healing, whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to deepen your practice.
