| Flexibility versus Rigidity During these Changing Times: Shamans Cave | 27 Apr 2022 | 00:22:17 | |
There are so many responses to big times of change like we are in right now. We have a choice to be flexible and learn how to change and go with the flow or we make choices to dig our heels into the ground and try and control our world. Change like we are experiencing can be scary. And there are times when we have to just surrender and be flexible and go with what life brings us. And there are times to take control over our lives. But sometimes digging our heels in and refusing to be flexible has negative consequences on our health and life. | |||

Through time there has been a part of the population who are highly sensitive. These people tended to be the shamans, mystics, healers, visionaries for the community. In today’s world people are becoming more psychically sensitive as well as being more sensitive to environmental changes. Just like our precious nature beings are struggling to learn to live in the world we created humans are being exposed to more toxins. | |||

Honoring the shift in seasons is such important work to do as we are as affected by the seasonal changes as the Earth and all of life is.

And it is important to enter each season with awareness that the shift is creating big changes in you too. | |||

| How Balanced is Your Inner Fire?: Shamans Cave | 02 Mar 2022 | 00:32:31 | |
To be able to continue walking forward through what life has to bring us and teach us we need to have our spiritual fire burning so that we have the strength to overcome the obstacles that life naturally brings. Everything that is alive needs the spiritual strength to walk through the fires of life. And that inner strength comes from your own fire burning carrying you through the dangerous flames that are part of our life’s journey. | |||
| Finding Road Maps: Shamans Cave | 23 Feb 2022 | 00:33:27 | |
In former times, before we had so much technology, people learned about life and were given a road map by listening to stories from elders. So many people had the opportunity to be taught from their grandparents about the challenges life brings to us and how to walk through the darkness without getting lost. This was an important part of indigenous life too as stories always helped to teach the community the road map of living a healthy and balanced life. | |||
| Movement: The Shamans Cave | 11 Jun 2025 | 00:28:53 | |

| No One Needs Pity: Shamans Cave | 16 Feb 2022 | 00:26:57 | |
Life challenges us to watch as we perceive so many people and nature beings suffering and going through intense challenging experiences. People have lost their homes, their health, their rights for freedom, and the list goes on. We watch beings in nature suffer through challenges that humans have created by not being caretakers of the Earth. | |||
| How Grounded Are You?: Shamans Cave | 09 Feb 2022 | 00:28:06 | |
So many of us are doing so much spiritual work right now to find meaning in life, to heal, to grow, and evolve. In indigenous cultures when communities did spiritual work to create positive change they performed ceremonies, danced, and sang and stayed in their body while doing these physical acts. | |||
| We are Moving Into a New Time: Shamans Cave | 26 Jan 2022 | 00:21:56 | |
Life as we know is not going to go back to normal. We are moving into a different time where our personality continues to be sculpted into our true spiritual identity where we can be a greater presence in our communities and in the world. | |||
| Devotion and Commitment: Shamans Cave | 19 Jan 2022 | 00:29:15 | |

| Loss During times of Great Change: Shamans Cave | 29 Dec 2021 | 00:33:02 | |
Renee and Sandra have talked about loss in past shows as it is powerful initiation. As we end the New Year we know people are dealing with a tremendous amount of loss whether it is from the fear of getting ill, angry at all the division in the world, loss of finances, health, family and the the goes on. Shamanism teaches that loss is a powerful path to a deeper spiritual life, a new way of perceiving life, and an evolution of consciousness as the hard parts of us are rescultped so that we are a being that carries the presence of unconditional love, light, and a deeper power of compassion. Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman in this powerful show that names loss as one of the issues many of us are dealing with and how to work with the energy of loss as we end 2021 and step into a new cycle.

| When We Attach to Predictions We Might Miss Opportunities: Shamans Cave | 22 Dec 2021 | 00:23:40 | |
As we approach a New Year we will begin to see predictions from all kinds of sources of what is to come in 2022. But is this helpful to us? Shamans are gardeners of energy. And the seeds that get planted may never come to pass and might even create more challenges for us as we water seeds that we don’t want to germinate. What opportunities do we miss when we can’t stay in the present and see that the actions we take in the present are actually creating our future? | |||

| We Can’t Ignore the Shadow as it is Part of Life: Shamans Cave | 08 Dec 2021 | 00:24:26 | |

| Are you feeling Anxious and Is Your Anxiety Yours?: Shamans Cave | 01 Dec 2021 | 00:26:05 | |
There is so much much fear and anxiety that people are feeling right now that it is in the collective field of energy. We have our concerns, thoughts, fears, disappointments about what is happening on Earth right now. Sometimes we are feeling our own fears and sometimes we are picking up on the anxiety in the collective. | |||
| Hovering in the Corner: Shamans Cave | 28 May 2025 | 00:25:16 | |
In this week’s podcast Renee and Sandra talk about how on a spiritual level we can keep doing our work to expand and evolve. But if we are in a state of fear and contracting then we are suppressing all the spiritual energy we learned how to raise and this puts an amazing amount of stress on our bodies and nervous system when we are trying to expand and contract at the same time. Is this something you can relate to in your own life? | |||
| The Land We Live On is a Sacred Site: Shamans Cave | 17 Nov 2021 | 00:27:01 | |
People often travel to places on the planet that are considered sacred sites. But imagine if you connected with the land you live on, whether in the city or country, as a sacred site. And to add to this you communicate with this sacred site on a daily basis so that a clear and strong vortex is set up between you and the universal forces to create successful ceremonies. | |||
| Choosing the World You Wish to Live In - Glimpses into the Future: Shamans Cave | 10 Nov 2021 | 00:21:13 | |
There is so much division in the world right now. And as Renee Baribeau points out in shamanism everything is energy. And for Sandra Ingerman the energy on this planet has been splitting off in different dimensions for a very long time. | |||
| Finding Gratitude Challenging Times: Shamans Cave | 03 Nov 2021 | 00:18:23 | |
In the practice of shamanism gratitude is a building block to a good life. Without gratitude we don’t get to enter the flow of life and nature. Rather we are pushed around by life. Gratitude actually gives us a certain amount of power and control in our lives. It helps us to enter into the flow of the river of life which will always lead us to our destined path. | |||
| Meet Your Future Self: Shamans Cave | 27 Oct 2021 | 00:30:57 | |

| Faith: Shamans Cave | 15 Sep 2021 | 00:29:54 | |
Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau felt that this was an important topic to discuss at this time. For many people are losing faith due to what some are calling the whiplash effect. One day you are told you are safe and the the Covid will be leaving soon. The next news story a few days later may say the opposite. So our heads are turning like a whiplash action. You think you are done and then you are told to go back inside. But this is life. Cycles and phases of change can take long periods of time especially when there is new structuring going on in the Earth and the collective. This period can include a lot of ups and downs as we follow the river of life where your ride can be smooth and graceful and suddenly turn turbulent. During the turbulence is not a time to lose faith. Be inspired by how Renee and Sandra talk about faith and how to restore it and maintain it. Follow us on ShamansTV.com | |||
| Being in Service: Shamans Cave | 08 Sep 2021 | 00:27:10 | |
People are worn out, stressed to the max, and feeling like there is not a clear path ahead. This is a time to honor our feelings and learn how to be in appropriate service to others. In the shamanic community we tend to want to give more than we received. But in this challenging time where everyone has their own journey to walk it is appropriate and necessary to create boundaries and honor and take care of yourself. People are exhausted now, and it Is time to regenerate. | |||
| Trust: Shamans Cave | 14 May 2025 | 00:18:06 | |
In chaotic and challenging times trust is our most powerful tool and the one we often have the hardest time embracing. When things are not going well we want to blame, we want to withdraw, we feel victim to the forces of life. But this is part of starting any initiation. There needs to be a breakdown of trust and all we can count on as we enter a time of death and rebirth. But once you get further on the journey you remember the innate strength and resilience that has gotten you through all the challenges in your life. | |||

| Sharing Your Spiritual Practices and Beliefs with Others: Shamans Cave | 25 Aug 2021 | 00:27:40 | |
Social conditioning is so strong in our culture. Society hopes we will all just stay “in a box” and allow ourselves to be controlled.. Following our passion, being dreamers, performing shamanic journeys can make you stand out. During this time of so much change and crisis on the planet more and more people are turning to practices such as shamanism as a way to make sense out of life and how to live a healthy and happy life. | |||
| Who Are We Fighting: Shamans Cave | 18 Aug 2021 | 00:20:18 | |
At a time on the planet when what it is being called for in behalf of all life is to devote our lives to ceremony and prayer, people are fighting with each other and trying to force their belief systems on others. Renee and Sandra talk about how we could make a different choice and use the exponential power of ceremony and prayer to help support and protect each other. But human egos are just rallying for a fight right now. And who are we fighting anyway? We know the exponential power of people coming together in prayer whether they agree with each other or not. Sandra shares a simple practice where you can join in with the spiritual community, and have faith in the ancient teachings of shamanism of how to create the magic of healing. Join us. This is such an interesting show!! Follow us at ShamansTV.com | |||

We are in such intense times. And obviously no one is privy to how long our life will be. There are so many stages in one's life’s journey. There is a time to be an activist if this calls to you.

| The Light of Nature: Shamans Cave | 28 Jul 2021 | 00:39:17 | |
Nature is our healing balm. But as humans instead of really engaging with other nature beings and nature itself we often watch nature as if we are watching a movie. This really disconnects us from life itself but also keeps us from truly tapping into the magic that shamans have known and worked with for tens of thousands of years. We have choices when we perceive the world around us. And unfortunately in our times we don’t recognize the dimensions that are right behind the one we are living in. And due to this we miss so much of the magic of life. Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman as we open the veils betweenness the worlds and play with the non-ordinary beings that live right on our land , in the parks we love, and the cities we live in.

| Letting Go Judgement: Shamans Cave | 14 Jul 2021 | 00:18:54 | |
The planetary energies seem to be shifting in a variety of ways. We have our issues with the Covid, climate change, and a wealth of other challenges. So much of the change that needs to happen is by people really standing up together. But one of the challenges of this is we are overpopulated and people are very divided.This has been a big issue for Sandra Ingerman as she has been an activist but does not see the changes that we know are possible. Sandra has found that she is naturally and effortlessly moving into a state of consciousness focusing on her life and others must do the same. For we on all on our own journey. And Sandra’s is leading to emanating love and light and to just surrender to what is. Renee Baribeau adds her thoughts on this which are brilliant and adds another perspective.We believe this show will give you some things to think about and look at how you feed the collective with love and light.

| The Unknown: Shamans Cave | 09 Jun 2021 | 00:24:53 | |

| Horizontal and Vertical Growing: Shamans Cave | 30 Apr 2025 | 00:24:33 | |
In nature we have trees that who feed so many beings – humans, birds, insects, all that lives on the earth and air.

| Are You Challenged with Setting Boundaries?: Shamans Cave | 19 May 2021 | 00:25:36 | |
We live in a culture that teaches us at a very young age that it is better to give than to receive.
