A few weeks ago, As I was swimming in a nighttime visualization, something unexpected happened. As I was swimming, I spontaneously became the largest whale. And as the whale moved through the water, I felt every drop of water as fingertips caressing the body. And the whale returned that love with its love for the Sea.
In that moment I understood something: Connection is not an idea. It is sensation. It is the body remembering it belongs.
And I began to wonder, when we say we want to reconnect with Nature, are we still trying to do it with our minds? Are we analyzing the connection instead of allowing ourselves to feel it?
The Earth is constantly touching us, loving us, speaking to us. But we have been trained to live from the neck up. The way back is through the body. Return to your senses, to your body, to the living Earth that has never stopped caressing you

Spring 🌱
This speaks of the spirit of the season spring who carries magic of transformation and ancient memory, moving with clarity, warmth, and quiet wisdom. She embodies the moment of quickening, the truth rising beneath thawing earth, and the courage of new life pushing toward bloom. Her path honors beginnings as sacred returns, recognizing that every emergence carries the echo of cycles lived before.
Text on Image: “I am enchantress and rememberer, clear eyed, warm, and wise. I am the quickening. I am the truth beneath the thaw and the first green breath. I gather what is rising and welcome what dares to bloom. I walk with beginnings and call them sacred returns.”
“DailyShaman” reflects a way of living, not a title claimed; walking between worlds to offer an inclusive, modern spiritual experience.

Walking the Passage
The way transformation often requires moving through darkness with gentleness, trusting that the light ahead already recognizes and welcomes who you are becoming. It reminds you that you are not wandering without direction, you are in an active process of emergence, and the path itself is reshaping to meet you. By seeing the journey as a mutual unfolding between you and your becoming, you can walk with more softness, trust, and presence.
Text on Image: “Walk gently through the dark toward the light that already knows your name. You are not lost. You are becoming, and the path is becoming with you.”

Guidance + Purpose
This acknowledges that the in‑between phases of life often feel unstable, yet they are the very places where inner guidance begins to gather and your deeper purpose starts to take shape. It emphasizes that resilience is not created in moments of certainty, it forms slowly and quietly in the spaces where you are being reshaped by experience. By recognizing this subtle forging, you can meet the unsteady moments with more patience and trust in your own unfolding.
Text on Image: “The in‑between feels unsteady, yet this is where guidance gathers and purpose brightens beneath the surface. Resilience forms here, slowly, like stone shaped by water.”

Sacred Care Amid Uncertainty
🗓 February 26, 2026 · 10:00–11:30am PST
When acclaimed filmmaker Wim Wenders suggested that art should not be political, and when spiritual teachers encourage detachment and equanimity, a deeper question arises:
What happens when “neutrality” protects injustice?
This gathering challenges the modern myth that inner peace alone is enough. Across ancient traditions—from Confucian ethics to Buddhism to the Egyptian principle of Ma’at—spiritual integrity has always been inseparable from ethical action. Personal healing is not a substitute for collective responsibility.
In this time of repression and rupture, we are witnessing something else emerge: neighborhood networks, quiet care, block-by-block organizing rooted in land, lineage, and relationship. Not reaction, but steady devotion to one another.
Together, we will explore:
* How trauma-informed care, spiritual grounding, and organizing sustain one another
* How understanding state violence as historical—not isolated—changes our response
* How to stay present with grief without collapsing into despair
* What mycelial organizing teaches us about resilient, relational power
This is a conversation about thinking smaller, closer, and more connected. About blending spiritual practice with movement practice. About remembering that care begins near—and grows outward.
Guided by Lyla June, Kaira Jewel Lingo, Jessica Rosenberg, and Rae Abileah.
Let us gather not to escape the world
but to learn how to stay with it, together.
Free Online Event in 2 Weeks!
Join Michael Meade on March 5 for a free online event that explores how if we awaken to our own calling, face our own fears and find our own destinies, then we become able to help change the outer world.
Each soul has something unique to offer and each can express a part of the truth. In order to be part of transforming our culture, we have to find the ground on which our souls would have us stand. For some that means literally standing up and speaking out for truth and justice. It can also mean finding places of refuge for ourselves and others or making music and art that helps heal our broken hearts as well as our shattered institutions.
The hidden gift in a period of crisis is the potential for a psychological breakthrough that leads to greater sense of imagination and a deeper sense of unity. Ultimately, what stands against “man’s inhumanity to man” is the awakened individual soul. If we do not abandon ourselves, we do not abandon the world. For, what changes the soul also helps change the world.
This free online event weaves together story, mythic insight and in-depth Q&A periods.

Adjustments for CoVid19.... I am working from my Home. I am able to offer full, wise & accurate Readings. I am able to offer Shamanic Healing, Insights & Teachings. And I am able to offer Clinical Hypnotherapy. I can do this with a combination of technology...Phone, Skype, Duo and Digital Recordings. In fact, clients are saying that at this current time? They are appreciating the privacy, having a Recording to go back over, and the ability for us to still connect visually through video calls. Win-win. Rates are being adjusted to budgets...as I am fully aware that resources may be strained at this time.
Kokums’ Den is the safe, comfortable place where I live, and do healing work. We are blessed with a gorgeous acreage that is 15 mins. east of downtown Maple Ridge. Kokum is one of the Cree words for Grandmother. I am Haudenosaunee & Nêhiyaw Michel Band #137 - Cree, with French & Irish Ancestry running in my blood as well. ;)
What is my work? Spiritual Healing, “Shamanic” Healing, Energetic Healing & Clearing, Clinical Hypnotherapy, Readings, as well as Teaching & Ceremony. I began learning & gathering skills for the purpose of healing in 1999, almost 30 years ago. I am still learning, still gathering and yes, still teaching.
The work that I do is a fusion of all that I have learned.
There are Traditional Elders & Indigenous Healers, worldwide, from many Nations, who offer to teach healing techniques and understandings to others, willingly and openly. I lift a Prayer of deep Gratitude for them. So many dedicated, loving and generous people changing the World. I was taught by Elders and Teachers from many Nations...Katzie, Cree, Tibetan, Mayan, Celtic, Tahltan, Coast Salish...as well as Goddess & Womens’ Wisdom Traditions... I have great respect for them. I also give thanks to the modern Teachers of what is called “Shamanic” Healing...it takes courage, bringing spiritual healing to your people in a climate that denies the importance of the Soul.
I also thank the experts in the field of Clinical Hypnosis, professionals who teach their techniques because they see the value of sharing what works. Hypnosis is a fantastic way of accessing the healing power of our own minds....because sometimes it really is just a matter of changing the way that we think, and feel. The links between the patterns of our minds, our emotions and the dis-ease in our bodies is undeniable. This is powerful Work.
I raise my hands in Gratitude for the teachings of the Energy Healers, the Reiki Masters, Healing Touch Practitioners, Traditional Healers, and the Hands On Healers that clear stagnant and blocked energy from our fields. Pulling out what we no longer need, and offering revitalization. People all over the world have been practicing this kind of healing since the beginning of time. These generous Healers kept the Wisdom alive, and now we have many beautiful people doing this Good Work.
I am grateful to be living, working, and playing on the Ancestral Lands of the Katzie People. I wish to honor a 12 year relationship with Katzie Elder, and my relative...Uncle Mel Bailey. He not only supported my work, he trained me to some of his ways of healing. We sat together in the Cedars, under the Eagles, and in our Kitchens, becoming very close. He is a member of my family, and it was said that I am now one of his. Hy’ch qa!! My hands are lifted to you, and lifting you Uncle. Prayers for your People, your House, and your Family.
My name is Monique Wilson, and I am called to this Good Work. I am blessed by everyone who has shared their Knowledge, Medicine, & Craft with me. Including those who have come to me for help, or Healing. I thank you for your trust, and for teaching me as well. Feel free to contact me for more information or clarity.
