About Teen Spirit Guide to Modern Shamanism
Teen Spirit Guide to Modern Shamanism is a light-hearted and informative handbook introducing an ancient spiritual practice to today’s young adults and beginning seekers. Modern shaman and author, S. Kelley Harrell gives insight into growing from an intuitive youth into a mature facilitator of healing for others, covering the history and roles of the shaman, and their relevance in our shifting times. Complete with instructions on ecstatic journeying, this guide also presents how to incorporate shamanic insights into daily life, and how to talk with others about the modern shamanic path.
The Buzz…
“Kelley Harrell provides you with a wealth of tools to assist you in cultivating your own shamanic path. This is an important book to help readers create a life filled with depth and meaning. Great guide!” ~ Sandra Ingerman MA, Soul Retrieval and Shamanic Journeying: A Beginner Guide.
“Teen Spirit Guide to Modern Shamanism” is fuel for both the head and the heart, offering young spiritual seekers grounded advice and experiential practices for exploring the path of modern shamanism. ~ Hillary S. Webb, PhD, Exploring Shamanism, Traveling Between the Worlds: Conversations with Contemporary Shamans, and Yanantin and Masintin in the Andean World: Complementary Dualism in Modern Peru
“Harrell’s book presents her discoveries of how to approach our ancient potentials and provides guidance for those who find the shamanic path opening for them. While the neophyte shaman often walks a solitary path into the world of the spirits, the protection of the wisdom of our elders has always been essential guidance. Knowledge and experience from the wounded healers of the past can help those who walk the path today. Kelley’s book provides guidance and wisdom to help structure the modern encounter with these ancient spiritual healing principles.” ~ Dr. Michael Winkelman, M.P.H., Ph.D., Shamanism A Biopsychosocial Paradigm of Consciousness and Healing

Congratulations to you! I can’t help wondering if there aren’t also some tips for beginners of all ages, some of the basics that seem to get overlooked in other trainings and books. Is the pun on Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” intentional?
Indeed. It’s written for a beginner audience of any age, though the publisher is expressly creating a series geared toward teens and young adults. The name was the original series name suggested by the publisher.
And thanks! =)
I think it’s great that you have provided the tools for young adults to embark on this fun filled journey. I wish I would’ve had something as interesting as this, when I was a teenager.
Keep up the great work Kelley. Your definitely doing your life purpose.
Love and light to you dear ♥
Thank you for stopping by, Stephanie! I didn’t want to write this sort of ‘instructiona’ book, at first. When I thought about it as you just stated–“Boy, I wish I’d had something like that when I was a teen,” I put pen to paper without another thought.
Thank you for your kind words and support!
Thank you, Stephanie!
I am thrilled for you Kelley! I know it will be of great benefit to many! Deanne
Thank you, Deanna. =)
Exciting news! I wish this book had been around 50 years ago. There’s no telling what good things will come to the multi-verse from this.
