Background Information
Josie RavenWing, MA, MFCC, has made the study of multi-cultural
healing systems and spiritual paths her life's work.
An internationally known workshop presenter and
author (The Book of Miracles: The Healing Work of Joao de Deus, The Return of Spirit: A Woman's Call to Spiritual
Action and A Season of Eagles), Josie began working 30 years
ago as a pioneer in dance
therapy and later as a psychotherapist with an eclectic and
holistic approach. She spearheaded the holistic healing movement in
Seattle in the early 1970s and co-created the first Masters
level degree program in holistic healing in the
U.S. at Antioch University in 1976.
In addition to her academic background, she has studied
shamanic and other spiritual
paths since the late '60s and has participated in a variety of
ceremonies and spiritual initiations over the years.
Josie has had a strong and supportive interest in women's
spirituality, and the first workshops she offered
- and some that she continues to offer- are in this
area. She has been teaching workshops in the fields of healing
and spirituality since 1984 throughout the US and abroad,
combining her background in psychology and her own
inner guidance with knowledge and training from
many world traditions. In addition to her workshops she offers
powerful individual healing work and spiritual training
upon request.
Josie is also a poet (see one of her poems - "Song
for the Journey" -in Michael Harner's classic
book on shamanism, The Way of the Shaman), a songwriter
(three recorded music tapes) and ceremonial leader. She has been
widely interviewed by the media and has written numerous
articles for various spiritual
publications.
In her workshops and her books, RavenWing tends to focus
on solutions rather than problems. "Energy
follows our attention and intention," she says,
"and we can choose to direct our energy in ways that leave us
endlessly recycling our problems
or in ways that facilitate harmony and healing."
Called a "practical visionary" by well-known
author and speaker Joan Borysenko, Josie RavenWing
offers a grounded spirituality that appeals to people
of diverse backgrounds because of its applicability to contemporary
life and needs.
Josie divides her time between the U.S. and Brazil - where
she works with Joao de Deus and other spiritual healers and has written
a book, "The Book of Miracles: The Healing Work of Joao de Deus"
on the miraculous experiences she has had there.
