Bushman Shaman

By Bradford Keeney, Ph.D.

Bradford Keeney details his initiation into the shamanic tradition of the Kalahari Bushmen. He was drawn to this tradition, wherein dancers' bodies shake uncontrollably during healing ceremonies, with hopes that it might explain his own ecstatic "shaking," which he first experienced at the age of 19. Keeney went on to dance with the Bushmen for more than a dozen years.

Seiki Jutsu

By Bradford Keeney, Ph.D., Hillary Keeney, Ph.D.

Seiki jutsu is the ancient Japanese shamanic art of working with concentrated life-force energy for self-healing and revitalization. Often described as a “non-subtle” energy because it is strongly felt when awakened, seiki underlies the “flow experience” sought after by artists, musicians, and athletes. Indeed, no method of performance, spiritual practice, or philosophy of life can fully awaken without sufficient seiki, which is regarded in Japan as “the fountain of youth."

Shamanic Christianity

By Bradford Keeney, Ph.D.

Shamanic Christianity offers a chance to restore direct connection to the spirit world by rekindling the shamanic practices of Christianity. This reconnection, a contemplative practice, takes the form of devotions which serve to reintroduce Jesus, Mary, and the saints as shamanic teachers of divine mysteries whose spiritual presence is available to contemporary lives.
