Many people in today's world are being called by spirit to become shamans. A yearning exists deep within many of us to reconnect to the natural world. It is a call to a life lived in balance with awareness of nature, of spirit, and of self. In his third drum guide, Shamanic Drumming: Calling the Spirits, Michael Drake recounts his journey into shamanic practice and explores what someone should do if they feel the call to become a shaman. Following up on his definitive handbook on shamanic drumming, The Shamanic Drum, the author provides a new series of exercises and lessons that allow for a deeper understanding and utilization of this core shamanic practice. He has written a guide to becoming a shamanic healer that encompasses the power of the drum, of community, and of the accountability inherent in authentic shamanic practice.
This empowering book is a call to build relationships with helping spirits. Spirit helpers are the caretakers in the unseen world who want to support the earth and her inhabitants at this time. They are here to teach us how to gather wisdom from the spiritual realms, the natural world, the past, the present and the future in order to give birth to new ways of being. The shamanic relationship between humans and helping spirits supports our spirit's quest for self-realization. Helping spirits, if engaged regularly and skillfully, offer flexibility, creativity and perseverance in fulfilling our own unique path. The spirits are here to assist us in doing the principal, unique thing we have come here to do in a way that benefits all living things.

5.0 out of 5 Stars. "Are you being called to one of the oldest
traditions on the Mother Earth? In your heart you know. Michael Drake shares his
journey of being "called" by his higher self. It is a wonderful journey with the drum.
I live in a remote area of the USA. Michael's book offers a sacred way of learning
Shamanic Drumming and shares his knowledge of Ceremony."

"If the Universe Calls You? This book is the latest by Michael
Drake. Just as I read the first pages I found myself mirrored in the writing...it seems
to be speaking about me to me! What amazes me is the friendly, easy way he explains
very deep topics...as usual I don't like to describe the book content, but what it
transmitted to me. I suggest you read it just for curiosity even though I know by the
end you will want to investigate more about the Universe, beat, drum, sound, thought,
energy...and moreover your place! Please have a look at Michael's author page on
amazon.com and read the complimentary pages."
