“The Power of Faith” on “Why Shamanism Now?” Radio Show with Christina Pratt on December 2

On her radio show "Why Shamanism Now? A Practical Path to Authenticity”, teacher, author, and founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing, Christina Pratt, talks to listeners about how it doesn’t really matter what we have faith in; it only matter that we are able to achieve this state of grace.

Portland, OR, November 27, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Streaming live on the Voice America Network (www.voiceamerica.com) on Wednesday, November 25 at 2 p.m. Pacific time/5 p.m. Eastern time, on her show "Why Shamanism Now?: A Practical Path to Authenticity,” shaman and founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing Christina Pratt says: “Faith is freefall. It is the liquid state of grace in which all change is possible. Without faith we are unable to cross that gap between what was and what needs to be.”

According to Pratt, it really doesn’t matter whether that gap is the size of a whole life that you are being asked to leave behind, or the microscopic gap between two neurons in your brain as you desperately try to think a new thought; with out faith we cannot cross that Void. The most interesting thing about faith, given humanity’s history of killing each other over it, is that it doesn’t really matter what you have faith in. In terms of transformation and enlightenment, it only matters that you are capable of that state of grace -- that you can surrender all that you are and know to simply be in a state of faith.

In this episode of “Why Shamanism Now?” titled “The Power of Faith”, host Christina Pratt explores the power of faith and addresses the question: When is faith the excuse for delusion and fantasy thinking and when is it the power needed to dance with the Unknown?

Christina Pratt is an authentic, non-traditional contemporary shaman. In practice since 1990, she specializes in mending the soul and transforming the parts of life that feel impossible. A teacher of exceptional clarity, humor, and inspiration, Pratt brings the power of shamanism into the practical grasp of anyone willing to take responsibility for improving the quality of their life.

Pratt is the founder of the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing in Portland, OR, and New York, NY, creator of the original Foundations of Shamanism and Shamanic Healing course at the University of Minnesota, and a frequent and honored speaker for the American Holistic Medical Association.
