Indigenous shamanism

Indigenous shamanism is a spiritual practice rooted in various native cultures worldwide, where shamans serve as mediators between the human and spiritual worlds. They use rituals, trance states, singing, drumming, and natural elements to connect with spirits, ancestors, and nature for healing, guidance, and safeguarding their community. This tradition emphasizes harmony with the environment and respect for spiritual entities, often passed down through generations. Shamanism varies among cultures but generally focuses on maintaining balance and addressing spiritual or physical ailments through specialized knowledge and ceremonial practices.
