All kind of activities relating to the beliefs and practices associated with a shaman
verb (used without object), shamanated, shamanating.
- to act as a shaman
Shamans work with the spirit or the soul. They heal illness at the soul level. They gain knowledge and insight from working with the spirits of nature such as rocks and trees, the land, and they gain knowledge from working with spirits of animals and humans such as their ancestors. For the shaman, everything is alive and carries information. You can call this spirit, energy, or consciousness.
In order to communicate with the spirit or consciousness of these things, the shaman will shift his or her own state of awareness. Shamans can do this through various means, such as meditation, repetitive sounds such as that of the drum or rattle, or through the help of hallucinogenic plants. The shaman will then “see” through a new set of eyes, they will see what is going on with you on a spiritual level.
The shaman’s practice is also characterized by the soul flight. The shift of consciousness that the shaman makes, which allows the free part of his or her soul to leave the body. The shaman can then go retrieve information for your healing and growth. They can retrieve healing power, or things that you have lost along the way in living your life. During the soul flight the shaman is both in the room, and going on this “journey” so that he or she has an awareness of both at the same time.

Get the shamanate mug.Proper verb. Synoymous with "terminated". It is what happens to formerly popular and successful college football coaches after particularly embarrassing or multiple losses to coach Nick Saban and and his team, the Crimson Tide of the University of Alabama. The term applies whether the affected coach is fired in shame, or is allowed to step down and maintain a degree of dignity.
