The Tradition of Shamanic Healing in Siberia

The shaman is sometimes traditional described as the wounded healer meaning that if you go to Siberia to the source of shamanism basically typically a shaman would be somebody who went through a very severe initiation often one that brought them close to death and then had like a near death experience and came back from the realm of the dead. So shamans traditionally go through some kind of initiation illness and then heal themselves fully so they come out on the other side strong and in their full power. That breaking down of the old structure and then the the birth and emergence of a new structure is part of the traditional initiation of the the shaman.
