The Way of the Shaman: A Guide to Power and Healing has been heralded as one of the first authentic introductions of shamanic healing to break into the Western mainstream. 

Authored by the late Michael Harner, the originator of the “Foundation for Shamanic Studies“. 

His groundbreaking research has largely been attributed to the founding of Neoshamanism – the Wests’ rediscovery of our shamanic healing roots.

In celebration of his life’s work, we’ve provided the scanned book made into an audio format by THE OFFICIAL RESISTANCE our sister website.

Now, with a new introduction and a guide to current resources, anthropologist Michael Harner provides the definitive handbook on practical shamanism; what it is, where it came from, how you can participate. 

Michael Harner, Ph.D., practiced shamanism and shamanic healing for more than a quarter of a century.  He was the founder and director of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies in Norwalk, Connecticut.

The solo drumming from Michael Harner in the video below is an outstanding example of impeccable, uninterrupted shamanic journey drumming in the classic mode, to be used as instructed in Michael Harner’s book.

Take a look at what some of our other Master Mentors had to say about this amazing work:

“Wonderful, fascinating… Harner really knows what he’s talking about.” – Carlos Castaneda

“An intimate and practical guide to the art of shamanic healing and the technology of the sacred.  Michael Harner is not just an anthropologist who has studied shamanism; he is an authentic shaman.” – Stanislav Grof, Author of the Holotropic Breathwork

“Harner has impeccable credentials, both as an academic and as a practicing shaman.  Without a doubt (since the recent death of Mircea Eliade) the world’s leading authority on shamanism.” – Nevill Drury, author of ‘The Elements of Shamanism’
