Rysdyk shares powerful stories of shamans from a variety of cultures such as Nepal, Tuva, the Ulchi from Siberia and from Peru. She brings a fresh perspective to the work by showing how the latest findings in quantum physics are verifying that we are all connected in an intricate web of energy and spirit.

Shamanic implements assist us in going deeper into the intangible worlds and numinous realms of the spirit, where shamans and spirit walkers believe we navigate the complex interrelationships that are continually creating our physical existence.

"A Spirit Walker's Guide to Shamanic Tools" is specifically designed to support those who have learned how to access the spirit realms and have the desire to add the right spiritual implements to their shamanic tool kit. It is filled with practical information on the purposes of shamanic tools as well as guidance on how to make, buy and empower them for sacred use.

Beautifully illustrated with the author's original artwork and photographs of shamans and their authentic tools, the book pays tribute to ancient shamanic culture. At the same time, it demonstrates the effectiveness of shamanic methods in maintaining one's spiritual center in modern life.
