About FoxFire Podcast: Shamanism, Safety & Culture

Welcome to the FoxFire Podcast brought to you by the FoxFire Foundation in Berlin, Germany. Join us as we explore the wild and unregulated field of contemporary shamanism, whether you’ve been on the way for decades or are just curious and want to know more. We’ll help you figure out how to maneuver shamanic retreats, trainings, ceremonies, and rituals while staying safe and answer your questions about the emerging culture around this new field of work. Between us, we have 60 years of experience in practicing, studying, and researching both contemporary and traditional shamanism.
