People are called to the path of the healer by way of signs and synchronicities, dreams, illnesses and initiations, and transitions. Often people experience these indicators with a sense of quiet knowing, without a clear understanding of what next steps to take. Julie’s expertise lies in helping people recognize the call from spirit and embark upon a proven path of practice and training to become professional spiritual healers. Since 2012, Julie has been teaching practitioners the necessary skills to provide healing for others, whether you intend to combine spiritual healing with another modality or practice it by itself. During this special episode of "Branches of Wisdom” guest-hosted by Tami Simon, we’ll explore the key spiritual healing techniques that Julie teaches during her professional training, including soul retrieval, psychopomp, compassionate depossession, and curse unraveling. Listeners will gain valuable insights into the occasions when spiritual healing is called for as well as how easily it can become integrated into a multi-disciplinary approach to well-being on every level. Julie M. Kramer is a master shamanic healing practitioner and founding instructor of The Art and Practice of Shamanic Healing: A Three-Year Professional Training and Initiation, known for guiding committed students into profound relationships with compassionate spirit allies. Since beginning her practice in 2000 and leading workshops by 2003, Julie has trained hundreds of practitioners across disciplines in how to safely and effectively engage with the invisible world as a powerful source of healing and guidance. Her yearlong and multi-year immersive programs—including The Sacred Call of the Healer—are recognized for their rigor, spiritual depth, and transformative impact. With a rare blend of clarity, presence, and compassion, Julie creates spaces where true learning and soul-remembering can unfold.
