Shamanic Awakening Ceremonies
646. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
February 19, 2024 | 1:41:06
Our sacred process lasts 76 minutes, followed by 25 optional minutes of Q&A and feedback. Most of the Q&A focuses on ayahuasca and other plant spirit teachers.
As always, this best-of Shamanic Awakening Ceremony supports your healing and awakening by combining our four-part Embodied Awakening Invocation Cycle with an extended healing section. Seventy-eight Zoom participants give this event abundant power, fully available to you through this recording!
Musical support includes the “Moola Mantra” as we first call in divine consciousness, then three ayahuasca icaros with voice and rattle during the high-intensity healing section: “Chiric Sanango,” “Taquimuyki,” and “Icaro de Proteccion.”
551. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
April 19, 2023 | 1:46:46
Our sacred process lasts 96 minutes, followed by 11 optional minutes of feedback.
This “best-of” Shamanic Awakening Ceremony is potently supported by the focused energy of 60 people on the Zoom call. It’s also energized because it starts about four hours before a supercharged “Black Moon” Solar Eclipse in Aries!
Many are experiencing their first Awakening Plus event, so I give clear and detailed instructions throughout.
There’s plenty of music to support this event’s strong healing focus. I start with the “Moola Mantra” to help establish a high vibration. The rest of the music is fast, high intensity healing songs, mostly with voice and rattles: “Chiric Sananga,” “Taquimuyki,” and “Out You Go!”
All this healing lightens us up so we can more easily merge with our higher self at its level, then experience it as a euphoric presence in our human bodies. Finally, we invoke the ongoing experience of this exquisite embodied awakening and share our good medicine with the universe!
523. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
January 18, 2023 | 1:25:28
Our sacred process last 78 minutes, followed by 7 optional minutes of feedback and questions.
This “Best of” Shamanic Awakening Ceremony gives you a potent opportunity to clear heavy energy. And, because it incorporates our four-step Embodied Awakening Invocation Cycle, you’ll likely end up in a profoundly blissful state!
There’s plenty of music to move the energy. I start with the soothing “Moola Mantra,” then move into healing songs: A Native American-flavored voice and rattle improvisation, a large rattle improvisation, and my “Out You Go!” song to transmute dark entities into beings of love and light. (Unless they choose to voluntarily depart.)
There was lots of feedback in the chat. (This was a free public call attended by 59 people.) Here’s a sampling:
Paula: Wow, I heated way up when the dark entities were cajoled out and my cold feet got warm, neat! Very deep and sweet, thank you.
Izzy: Thank you, Benjamin! Such beautiful healing energy. I loved all the songs you sang.
Diane: That was very powerful and wonderful. The songs were fantastic. I’m feeling very expansive. Thank you Benjamin and everyone!
Charlotte: Wonderful. I got in such a peaceful place. I will be doing this again from the archives.
SRK: I had such fantastical images appear on the black screen of my mind. Truly profound. Thank you for your time, Benjamin. You’re working wonders to help [people] heal and awaken.
483. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
September 21, 2022 | 1:51:01
This potent “best-of” Shamanic Awakening Ceremony can help you clear lots of heavy energy, merge with your higher self at its level, and move strongly into embodied awakening!
As you would expect, there’s lots of music to propel you on this healing journey. I start with the slow, exquisite “Moola Mantra.” The music becomes fast and intense in the extended healing section, starting with the voice-and-rattle ayahuasca songs “Taquimuyki” and “Icaro de Proteccion.” I invite any dark entities in your field to leave voluntarily to the sound of soothing chimes, then launch into my no-nonsense two-rattle “Out You Go!” song.
All this intensity should help you purge lots of entities and heavy energy. This could let you enter your deepest state of embodied awakening yet!
438. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
May 11, 2022 | 1:45:27
Our sacred process last 80 minutes, followed by 25 minutes of discussion. Stay until the end if you can: near the end of our post-event discussion, our allies surprise us with a special bonus blessing!
This powerful Shamanic Awakening Ceremony mixes the old and the new. At the end, our divine allies choose it as a “Best of” event.
New: Me singing “Ilumina” near the start to settle us into our flow, then doing a voice and rattle improvisation for the first healing song. Phoenix rises as a featured ally at the end of this song, helping us die to the old and be born into the new.
Old: I sing the “Out You Go!” healing song with voice and rattles, after inviting low-vibration entities to leave voluntarily.
418. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony – All-New Music!
March 9, 2022 | 1:38:46
Our sacred process last 87 minutes, followed by 12 optional minutes of Q&A and feedback.
For the first time, the allies guide me to do a Shamanic Awakening ceremony with completely new music! For starters, the beautiful guitar-and-voice song “Agua de Estrellas” helps establish a peaceful divine foundation.
Once we get to the intense healing section, I’m called to use two intense ceremony songs: “Taquimuyki “ and “Icaro de Proteccion”. I close the healing section with a Native American-flavored improvisation featuring voice and rattles.
After the healing section, having cleared so much heavy energy, we move into a deeper state of embodied awakening!
402. Distinctively Different Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
January 19, 2022 | 1:32:14
Ready for something different? This Shamanic Awakening Ceremony delivers it!
For starters, the first healing song is new to Awakening Plus. It’s called “Taquimuyki”, and is typically used in ayahuasca ceremonies.
And, instead of the soothing chimes I usually play when lower vibration beings are voluntarily departing, I play the Zenergy Chime Quintet instrument. Participants reported feeling intense energy from these tiny tubular bells!
Fortunately the response to these changes was positive. Join us on this recording and see what life-affirming transformations await you!
383. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony: Musical Breakthrough!
November 17, 2021 | 1:42:05
Our sacred process last 87 minutes, followed by 15 optional minutes of feedback.
The allies suggest that I add this Shamanic Awakening Ceremony to the “Best Of” list … perhaps because I make a significant musical breakthrough!
The first healing song in this ceremony recently shifted from using a drum, which consistently distorted over Zoom, to an improvisation with voice and rattle. I’m more creative than ever with this song. I use divine inspiration, combined with my music composition training, to create much more musical variety. All this helps create a potent healing experience, as evidenced by the chat feedback:
Anjuli: Smooth flow feels like it will keep working through the night… vibrant and dynamic healing tonight within…
Nicky: Whoohee! Thank You!
Brian: I can’t thank you enough, Benjamin! I experienced such a lightness that I haven’t felt in a lonnnnng time. This was incredible and I thank each and every one of you.
248. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony: Surprisingly Short and Unusually Powerful!
July 14, 2020 | 1:33:39
Not only is this one of our most powerful Shamanic Awakening Ceremonies ever – it’s also one of the shortest! These normally run about two hours, but this one clocks in at just 94 minutes. I was in an unusually deep altered state as I sang the healing songs.
240. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
June 8, 2020 | 1:53:09
This ceremony’s extended healing section, with its full-on singing, rattling and drumming, makes it great for releasing heavy energies. All report wonderful experiences. Chances are you’ll end up in a profoundly blissful state of embodied awakening like they do! :-)
215. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
March 9, 2020 | 1:22:57
This Shamanic Awakening Ceremony has one new element. In the healing section, I invite you to call up a specific past trauma for healing if you wish. (Or you can just let the allies bring up whatever healing serves your highest good.)
Otherwise it’s business as usual, except for an unusually short duration. We set the sacred container, call in maximum light and divine consciousness that serves highest good, and spend a lot of time receiving healing and clearing heavy energies. We end up in embodied awakening, then spread that good energy with all other beings.
This call can help you release what doesn’t serve you and deepen your embodied awakening. Enjoy!
209. Shamanic Awakening Ceremony
January 13, 2020 | 1:45:11
By popular request, our first event in 2020 is an old favorite: the Shamanic Awakening Ceremony. It follows the classic sequence, except that I’m guided to include the 4 Suns exercise before the healing round.
The 4 Suns exercise from Andean shamanism connects the sun in your belly to the sun at the center of the earth, our solar sun, and the galactic sun. It will help you “walk between the worlds”.
After setting the sacred container, we call in the maximum light and divine consciousness that serves highest good. After the 4 Suns exercise, we do an extended healing round to clear heavy energy. After that, as always, we merge with our higher self, then merge that divine consciousness with our egos to attain embodied awakening.
The final steps are to share highest good energy with all beings, close the ceremony, and share instructions on how to keep using invocations to make your daily life more wonderful!

This “Best-of” Shamanic breathwork has a truly unique music mix! The rhythmic, tribal songs by Brent Lewis at the beginning are unusually fresh, and are followed by a brilliant, pulse-pounding soundtrack from an MCU aerial battle. Then the music softens, with lots of layered voices-as-instruments, gongs and chimes.
For Michelle, the final song (Dan Fogelberg’s “Longer”) “brought immense tears that just poured out. perfect ending.” And the event helped Anjuli get critically needed guidance from her spirit team.
Fire up this recording and see what breakthrough experience awaits you!

Our container-setting and event instructions take 17 minutes, followed by a 61-minute breathwork music set. We close with 12 minutes of feedback. You’ll be in and out in 90 minutes!
What a powerful “best of” breathwork experience! One man cried through the whole thing, including “screaming raging tears” that he’d had inside him for a long time.
One woman felt heavy energy draining through her feet, as well as kundalini snake energy spiraling up her body. Another woman said that she released a lot, cried a lot, and felt wonderful by the end.
Are you ready for your own breakthrough experience? Cue up this recording!
Fair warning: the mix is extremely intense from the 7-minute to 23-minute marks. This 17-minute medley of instrumental progressive metal songs hits like a pile driver, and can help shake out deep-rooted energy blockages.
Once you’ve passed through this musical gauntlet, the remaining songs are slow and beautiful. They will help you gently process whatever got shook up!
FYI, the end of the progressive metal medley contains intentional distortion and sonic artifacts that might sound like mistakes. This is some of the highest-intensity music ever recorded by David Maxim Micic, my all-time favorite progressive metal musician.

Let this new one-hour Shamanic Breathwork mix take you on a powerful inner journey!
We start by creating our sacred container, after which I verbally give the most important instructions. Then I cue up the music, followed by feedback and Q&A.
I made some improvements to this recording. I deleted sections that had technical issues — no helpful content was removed — and replaced the third song because its audio fidelity wasn’t good enough. No worries; I found an awesome replacement track!

Proceed with caution! Based on the feedback from live participants at the end, this virtual Shamanic Breathwork experience is just as powerful as if we were physically gathered. Breathers reported amazing healings and breakthroughs in consciousness … but these were typically preceded by intensely challenging emotional and/or physical experiences.
This is no nonsense, real deal healing. If you aren’t ready to possibly have your deepest psychological wounds and most painful traumas purged up so that they can be healed, do not journey with this recording. If you’re willing to face whatever our divine allies bring up within you, to potentially achieve a major breakthrough, then proceed with this informed consent.
