About Dory Cote

Dory Cote, Shamanic Practioner

I am a Shamanic Healer trained and experienced in core shamanism. The goal of shamanic healing is to give you the tools to break free of what is not working for you in your life. In order to do that shamanic healing should place you on a healing path to access your own inner healing energy.

I have an active, full time shamanic healing practice in Brunswick, Maine and my healing space is inviting, warm, spacious, private and comfortable. If you live far from Maine, I offer long distance healing services which are generally as effective as working in person. A long distance shamanic healing practitioner uses the same "tools" and guidance as she would if you were receving shamanic healing work in person.

My training includes having completed a three-year program in advanced shamanism and shamanic healing with the Foundation for Shamanic Studies. I have also studied with several indigenous shamans and other well known shamans including Tom Cowan, Hank Wesselman, Ailo Gaup, Claude Poncelet, and Nan Moss & David Corbin. I was honored to be accepted into Sandra Ingerman’s Two-Year Teacher Training Program from which I graduated in 2005. As a result of this advanced teacher training, I am now able to offer workshops in advanced shamanic healing and advanced shamanism, as well as offering introductory courses.

The Shaman

Crow Medicine Man

Ever since the dawn of human history, tribes and communities have shamans. A shaman is a person who is profoundly aware that the world is alive with spirits and spiritual energy, and who does something with that knowledge.

Shamans dedicate their lives to their vocation. They sacrifice themselves for their people and spend many years acquiring knowledge and skills that take even longer to comprehend.

The word “Shaman” comes from the tradition of the Tingus tribe of Siberia, and means:

"a healer and a magician."

Shamanic Musings
Chilldren and Shamanism Communicating With The Deceased/A Shamanic Perspective Journey on it! What is Nature Deficit Disorder? Nature Deficit Disorder #2

Sandra Ingerman, 2007

Shamanism is not a series of methods and techniques.

Shamanism is a way of life which encompasses

The principle of oneness
with the web of life,

a deep and strong connection
to nature,

as well as working with
the principle of direct revelation.

Journey on it!

There is never a lack of topics to journey on!

As people who pursue a shamanic path, as many of you are, we believe in the principle of the oneness with the web of life. That also involves a responsibility to be in harmony and in regular, direct communication with the elements, plants, trees, birds, insects, and all life forms. Remember, all living things have spirit! And they exist in perpetuity in non-ordinary reality.
