astrid johnen 2002 after having my life threatened by breast cancer, a near-death experience, i took part in my first shamanic journey in a clinic supported by the german national health service. after all the weakening and discouraging therapies i had endured, i finally found peace and experienced healing. Since then i have been taking the shamanic path.
