AnimalInstincts
A self-paced video course in shamanic drumming journeys, shadow work, and inner guidance — for empowered decision making and trustworthy leadership. Watch on your own time, at your own pace, with no live sessions to schedule around.
"Intent is not a thought, or an object, or a wish. Intent is what can make a man succeed when his thoughts tell him that he is defeated. Intent is what sends a shaman through a wall, through space, to infinity."— Carlos Castaneda
A self-paced course, built to fit your schedule.
This is not a live program. There are no Saturdays to clear, no Zoom links to join, and no group to keep pace with. Every lesson is pre-recorded and waiting for you — start today, take a break for a month, and pick back up exactly where you left off.
Enroll & Get Instant Access
The moment you enroll, all 4 modules unlock. Nothing drips out week by week — the entire course is yours from day one.
Watch On Your Own Time
11 hours of pre-recorded video teaching, broken into short, focused lessons you can move through in one sitting or spread across months.
Journey at Your Own Pace
Each module's drumming journey is a recorded audio track. Press play when you're ready — pause, rewind, or repeat a journey as many times as you need.
Keep Returning, For Life
Lifetime access means this isn't a one-time watch. Revisit any module, journey, or worksheet whenever your practice calls for it.
Your animal nature holds the wisdom you've been looking for.
In a world that prizes overthinking, this course reclaims something primal — entirely on your own schedule. Through pre-recorded shamanic drumming journeys, reflective shadow work, and a private community of fellow students, you'll learn to decode your emotions, dissolve ego defenses, and access an inner guidance system that is always — already — available to you.
Each module blends video teaching, a recorded drumming induction, and guided imagery you can revisit as many times as you need. Your private online community stays open day and night, so the work keeps moving even between modules — on your timeline, not a class schedule.
The drum is the oldest technology for inner travel — now it's a recording you can press play on, anytime you need it.
Four Modules. Four Layers of Awakening.
Each module builds on the last, moving you from clarity of intent through the depths of the unconscious — and back into your life transformed. All 4 modules unlock immediately, so you can binge the whole course in a weekend or take a month between each one. There's no wrong pace.
Via Positiva & Via Negativa — Clarifying Your Intent
Intent is the rudder of your ship. We don't just focus on the positive — we have the courage to look at the shadow side, where real power is held.
- Setting a potent, unconscious-directed intent
- Via positiva & via negativa — the shadow holds your power
- Identifying what must change in your life
- Recorded drumming journey: meeting your intent
'Allyship' — The Inner Guidance System
Trauma severs our trust in ourselves and others. Learn to rebuild that sacred connection through trusted allies — human, animal, elemental, and divine.
- How trauma disconnects us from inner knowing
- What animal instincts truly are (and are not)
- Deconstructing self-importance and ego defenses
- Recorded drumming journey: meeting your power animal ally
Reactivating the Imagination
Your imagination is the diving board to the deep unconscious. Learn to use it as a tool (not a stress machine) to access the dreamtime.
- Tonal vs. Nagual — the bubble of perception (Castaneda)
- The right and wrong uses of imagination
- Breaking habitual patterns of thinking, dreaming, acting
- Recorded drumming journey: entering the dreamtime
Integration — Trusting Your Animal Knowing
Bring everything together. Learn to distinguish real inner guidance from ego fabrication — and carry these skills into your leadership and daily life.
- Real inner communication vs. ego fabrication
- Applying animal instincts in leadership decisions
- Building a sustainable personal practice

Meet Your Instructors
Nisha
Nisha has spent years working at the intersection of consciousness, the subconscious mind, and emotional healing. Her work began with lucid dreaming and expanded into the deeper territory dreams inevitably reveal: our inner guidance systems, our relationship patterns, and the stories we carry about who we are.
Her entry into this work was anything but ordinary. During a sleep paralysis episode, she found herself seeing two realities simultaneously — her ordinary bedroom through one eye, and the luminous dream world through the other. A voice told her clearly that this was part of her purpose: to see both worlds at once, and to teach others to do the same. She has been doing exactly that ever since, and her recorded teaching carries that same warmth and respect for the pace of each person's unfolding.
Norma
Norma brings deep expertise in shadow work and trauma-informed healing to this container. Her practice is built on the understanding that what we most need to heal is often what we've most carefully hidden — from others, and from ourselves. She is the founder of the Journey to Completion shadow work and trauma healing modality.
She specializes in guiding people through the parts of themselves that have been exiled: the grief that never had space, the anger buried under "keeping the peace," the self who learned too early that love had conditions. Her recorded teaching holds space for the shadow side of the journey, where the most transformative power — and real inner knowing — begins to emerge.
