Ethics and Integrity of Practice

By stepping into the field of me (Michelle Hawk) and my work, you are entering an etheric temple of safety, integrity, welcoming, honoring and authenticity. You are invited to be wholly, thoroughly, unapologetically you.

This is a safe place for black, brown and indigenous bodies. I live in a white body and I recognize that we live in a racist society predicated on white body supremacy, and that I am advantaged by that structure. I honor, respect and fiercely protect the sovereignty, freedom and joy of black, brown and indigenous bodies. You are safe here.

This is a safe place for LGBTQIA2S+ people. I live in a cisgendered, straight-passing body and I recognize that we live in a society that marginalizes and dehumanizes queer, trans, gay, and nonbinary people, and that I am advantaged by that structure. I honor, respect and fiercely protect the joy, freedom and sovereignty of LGBTQIA2S+ people. You are safe here.

This is a safe place for empaths, survivors, people who feel lost, alone, stuck, ashamed and afraid. You are not wrong. You are not broken. We live in a toxic society built on systemic trauma, oppression, violence and fear. I am here to build a new structure in my life, in the lives of my students and clients, and in the world. I honor, respect and fiercely protect the joy, freedom, sovereignty, humanity, empathy, love and empowerment of all people. You are safe here.

This is a safe place for all beings. We live in a hierarchical society that places humanity above all other forms of life, separates humans from Earth, tames humans and consumes Earthly resources without care or regard for the sanctity of life. I am here to anchor and embody the wisdom of right relation with Earth and all beings, to create structures of sustainability and omnipositive consciousness, to rewild myself and all of humanity. I honor, respect and fiercely protect the safety, freedom and sovereignty of all beings on Earth, and Gaia herself. You are safe here.

I recognize that the land I live and practice my work on was stolen from the Atfalati, Cowlitz, Kalapuya and Multnomah people.

 
In our time together, I was touched again and again by Michelle’s fierce love – particularly with my tender questions around boundaries, opening my heart, and digging into shadow. She reminded me of what is possible when we hold Spirit and ethical shamanism in daily life. I particularly loved being activated in animism, which helped me center on larger purpose, rituals, and prayers along the way. Thanks to the codes transmitted in my time with Michelle, I now know what I am oriented to – both within and without.
Deepest gratitude!

Alchemy Alchemist Michelle Hawk Portland Shaman Spiritual Mentor

I’m Michelle Hawk: Shamanic Alchemist, Spiritual Mentor, Master Healer.

As a child, I always felt connected to animals, nature and magic. The world felt alive to me in a way I eventually realized most people didn’t understand, so I hid and didn’t tell anyone about my conversations with animals or the spirits I saw.

When I found out about Shamanism at age 15, everything changed for me. Animistic Shamanism gave me a context and vocabulary for what I already knew to be true: the world and all beings are alive and connected through the unseen realms. For the first time, I felt validated in my experience of life and I dove in.

I have been studying and practicing animistic Shamanism with various teachers since 2003, and under dedicated mentorship since 2009. My core Shamanic lineages come from the Shaman clan Baksa of what is now Hungary, and the Celtic people and horse tribes who traveled across Europe. I have also studied with Turtle Island indigenous teachers.

As a white, western Shaman with 20+ years of study, I have navigated the territory of authentic Shamanic awakening and ethical practice. Instead of succumbing to the extractive cultural appropriation models of Shamanic teaching, I devoted myself to integrity of study in a way that honors my own lineages and my connection to the land and nature spirits with whom I collaborate.

I have supported hundreds of students and clients with their study and practice of ethical Shamanism for healing and transformation.

After 15 years of supporting students and clients in their journeys of healing and transformation, I know that:

Animistic Shamanism helps us come into right relation with Gaia, the spirit realm and all beings.

Healing our lineages and connecting with our ancestors is our birthright.

Shamanic awakening and mastery in the modern world is fraught with harmful and appropriative practices, but it’s vitally important to our individual and collective healing and transformation.
