Daydreaming, lucid dreaming is an important tool in Shamanic traditions to get into other energy levels, as well as the shamanic journey to the upper, middle and lower world to spirits and teachers. In addition to sounds and rhythms, plant spirits are also used in all cultures. Dream herbs often play an important role. They help to intensify fasting rituals and ceremonies, and to go through the doors to the not-everyday reality.

I have been dealing with medicinal plants for many years.
On the spiritual path with my teacher Angaangaq Angakkorsuaq, I also learned to use dreaming as a shamanic tool. Since I have a hard time remembering my dreams, I am experimenting with these shamanic medicines and they help me.
I would like to share my experiences with others, and
some of the herbs I sell on my markets or on request.
