Who we are

The Edinburgh Shamanic Centre was established in 2003 by co-founders Claudia Goncalves and Mark Halliday, working deep, doing, creating, and co-creating deep healing work in the community. Passionate about the Shamanic ways of being and living, we work closely and support the community in so many ways and levels. We have a deep commitment to the old ways, teaching the shamanic ways of living from the heart, the ways of harmony, humility, self-empowerment, and treading lightly on our Earth Mother. What inspires us

Our inspiration comes from the examples of indigenous communities all around the world where since the very beginning of human times, they always worked together for the benefit of the whole, working in communion with Spirits to receive and pass on deep spiritual teachings, blessings, and healing for each member of the community. What we do

We offer Year 1, 2, and 3 of Shamanic training, Level 1, 2, and 3 of Feather Stone Energy Healing training, Guided Meditation training, weekly online Shamanic Guided Meditation, Shamanic sessions, Readings, Women's Empowerment, Community events and so much more. We work with people from all backgrounds and from many parts of the world. How we work

Our work is always moved by great joy, a deep sense of responsibility, and deep commitment and service to our Earth Mother and to all her children. With our Shamanic work, we help people manifest their dreams and visions. We help people to empower themselves and find the inner voice of the Great Spirit within. Guided by that inner voice and coming from the heart, one begins to remember who they truly are, and becomes happy, stronger, secure, and confident. With whom we work

We work with people of all races, creeds, and beliefs. People of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds come to the Shamanic Centre to find their own inner power and spiritual authority. We help them to find the answers that lies within. Needing empowerment, self-belief, healing, clarity, or direction? All you need to do is contact us. We are here always happy to serve. We serve with humility and great joy in our hearts, supported by our loving Spirit guides. Like you, Claudia and Mark, are also seekers of truth and self-empowerment.

Hello you all dear followers and friends of the Shamanic Path 🪶 🌕

Sharing with you a short reading from a bigger chapter of Claudia’s book Shamanism as Medicine and some perspective from the shamanic eyes on mental health and spirit attachments.

We understand it can be complex subject but having worked for many years with attachment and extraction work successfully, our book has great detailed insights on what was gathered over many experiences with the spirit world.

Feel free to share below your thoughts and if it interests you, the book Shamanism as Medicine is available to be purchased online in our shop- either in paper or e-book form.

We are deeply grateful to the Madha and Yawanawá elders and beautiful Musician Runuiná, for their powerful visit to Scotland and for sharing their sacred medicines, songs, and ancestral wisdom with such generosity and heart.

Your presence has left a profound imprint on our spirits and on this land.

Thank you for trusting us with your traditions and for guiding us through such deep and transformative work.

To everyone who joined us on this journey — thank you for showing up with open hearts and courage. The energy, connection, and healing that unfolded among us was truly life-changing. We are walking away forever changed, more grounded, and more connected to the sacred.

With deep gratitude and love — thank you.
