Oct. 6, 2012 - PRLog -- Streaming live on the Co-Creator Radio Network (www.co-creatornetwork.com) on Tuesday, October 9, at 11 a.m. Pacific time/2 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 tells listeners that the heart of shamanism is the pulse, the breath, the dance of complementary dualism, a Tao-like awareness of wholeness expressed in nature, and found in the sustainable, practical philosophies of shamanic peoples around the world. Pratt talks to psychological anthropologist and author, Hillary S. Webb, Ph.D., about this, who recounts her compelling scholarly and personal odyssey into the complementary worldview at the heart of contemporary Andean shamanism in her most recent book, Yanantin and Masintin in the Andean World: Complementary Dualism in Modern Peru.

In this episode of “Why Shamanism Now?” titled “Complementary Dualism in All Things”, Pratt and Webb explore complementary dualism as a sophisticated and practical philosophical model for living a balanced life, for healing, and for transformation. At its essence, this philosophy offers respite from the lie of separation that overwhelms human consciousness today.  It brings us experientially into the interdependent reality of the physical world and the possibility of peace in our hearts.

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. Her well-received book, An Encyclopedia of Shamanism (Rosen), is an 800-page, two-volume set with over 750 in-depth entries that clearly discuss the basic concepts of shamanism, methods, and traditions of over 50 different shamanic peoples. 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.

Hillary S. Webb, Ph.D., is the former Managing Editor of Anthropology of Consciousness, the peer-reviewed journal of the Society for the Anthropology of Consciousness and the former Research Director at The Monroe Institute. Having received her undergraduate degree in Journalism from New York University, Dr. Webb went on to earn an M.A. in Consciousness Studies from Goddard College and a Ph.D. in Psychology from Saybrook University. She is the author of Exploring Shamanism, Traveling Between the Worlds: Conversations with Contemporary Shamans, and Yanantin and Masintin in the Andean World: Complementary Dualism in Modern Peru. She lives in Southern Maine. www.hillaryswebb.com
