Stories have the power to change the world.

Shaman Durek is a 6th generation shaman, an evolutionary innovator, and a women’s empowerment leader. He’s here to bring forth the ancient wisdom of our elders to help heal and bring happiness into our modern society. We’re sharing ancient knowledge in modern times, in order to put the power back in people’s hands. Welcome to the tribe.

    Has helped me so much
    His meditations have changed my life. I listen to one of them first thing in the morning. It’s incredible how my body feels I yawn and yawn, releasing heavy negative energy. Also the episodes when he is by himself are powerful. I listen to them on my way to work. I completely recommend this podcast to everybody.
  • Health_ Coach

    Nourishing my soul
    I stumbled across this podcast randomly as the words Ancient Wisdom pulled me in. I had just been noticing that as modern and technologically advanced as our world has become we have lost sight of ourselves, our purpose, and many have surrendered to the fear and helplessness. I started listening having no idea what to expect and I have fallen in love. Thank you Shaman Durek for being the love, light and hope. You have a beautiful way of communicating and I’m so grateful that I found you xo
  • LucasIsLooseInTheCourtyard
    First Listen...
    Love It! ...for the most part. We get it! The name dropping is cringe not adding another anything to the conversation. But can you stop? Not the guest, I'm talking about the honest
  • Hailey Bachelor
    I love you Durek
    I appreciate your spirit coming to earth to help support humanities evolutionary growth. Your spirit has been on my heart lately and I am remaining in my power to help shift energy to a higher vibration. We are all powerful in our own ways and you have so much abundance coming your way I love you dearly and thank you for existing. Ashe
  • Stargaze Flowers
    So much GRATITUDE & LOVE🧲❤️‍🔥🥰👏🏼✨🌼🌺🙏🏼💕
    The first time I heard one of Shaman Durek’s podcast episode I was literally feeling so down and again lost as well again confused about well life you know….in the one I listened to as I literally searched for things like “love, loving me, powerful, encouragement, something along the lines” I clicked on a Ancient Wisdom Today episode and he was saying things like how if no one has told me yet, I am amazing, powerful, so loved and etc etc. I felt it all and feel so genuinely grateful that I was supported, guided the way I did because I needed the love, uplifting message & encouragement. Afterwards I just listened more & wow I’m literally gaining so much wisdom, insight on spirit hacks & so much more!!! He’s really here guiding us to further step into our power, to remember, be along side us and beyond. I feel so grateful for his existence, what he does and the love that he so unconditionally pours out into the world and into all of us💕🌼🦋
  • whyareyouonlyonitunes
    Truth. Always evolving.
    Wow #50 (2021) episode so powerful. Was refreshing and humbling to have shaman Durek call it out as it is, no fluff. Pure transparency, if one is willing to receive it. I love you, welcome back
  • ArturoSolh
    🐙❤️
    Blessings to you all. Shaman Durek is such a gem, so much I could say, and I kno you kno. Episode 50 was such a lift and such a reminder of how beautiful a tribe/community can be, I resonate a lot with y’all, I’m a bit introvert, almost hermit these days, and something keeps pushing or there like this magnet that brings me back, it’s like I do remember you(shaman) from a far away place. Cant wait to meet you all one day. 🦊🧡

    The best Podcast ever!
    The most amazing podcast I’ve listened to. I’ve learned so much about myself spiritually and the world, and I feel more liberated than ever each day because of the knowledge that Shaman D has shared.. or had us remember:)I’m just really appreciative of all the time and effort and knowledge put into these podcasts. Love you Shaman D and prospect listeners: listen from the beginning! Every podcast brings amazing knowledge with it, and the teachings are wonderful 😊🙏🏽 * Would u mind posting more meditations again?! They were absolutely amazing and helpful to experience the messages within 🙌🏽
  • agentprovocateur234
    Its a fools game
    He’s probably a communal narcissist like almost all self labeled gurus, but if people enjoy it, I guess its okay.
  • Natasha 86

    Shaman D has been and continues to be one of my favorite spiritual teachers throughout my journey. I love that he is unapologetically himself and brings truth to the people! He helps remind me of my power. ❤️
  • 💖Lu
    Are you ready to step into your power?
    This podcast ALWAYS delivers exactly what I need to hear in divine time. Shaman Durek does a beautiful job of simplifying complex topics to help people shift from theoretical ideas to embodying their power.

  • kimberdancer
    Be cautious even with your faves!
    I love Shaman Durek however I’m giving 3 stars because you have to be cautious even with the people you align with when they interview people like Dr. Diva Nugura... If you’re healing from body trauma, lack of food resources, and/or any other type of body discrimination, be very discerning even with podcasts that you admire and that help you. Food is not medicine! That’s a dangerous mindset that we have been taught. Food is nourishment & NOT a moral measurement! So when “experts” discuss food as being good or bad, I have to say STOP! This mindset is what leads to restriction, diets, and eventually disorder around your body, mind, and soul! I think functional & integrative medicine is on the right track but they do NOT study eating disorders which is a mental health issue that’s a modern issue because of diet-culture mentality! All this to say, take any podcast particularly the spiritual ones because some of the topics can be quite privileged and uninformed around mental health issues! Anything that leads you toward extremes is something that needs to be examined! Fruits & veggies are great for us but they don’t heal diseases! They support us nutritionally! And anytime you hear carbs are bad for you, RUN! Your brain needs carbs to function well, that’s simply physiology! Please doctors & dietitians, study eating disorders & check your privilege before you speak! Again, I love many of SD’s episodes but we’re all spirits living human lives & mistakes can be made!
  • JewleyElls
    Relevant on so many levels
    Thank you Shaman Durek and Team for this amazing Podcast. It just keeps getting better and better. I love the new format of monologue, listener share, discussion with guest, then beautifully closed with reflection by Shaman Durek. It is such a complete package of wisdom and reality and I always receive so much more from listening than I anticipate. Sometimes it takes me days to listen to a whole episode and even weeks will go by before I get to the last section of it and I’m always so thankful that I listened to every last drop. It’s all so good. Also highly recommend the Healing Temple bc it is just as amazing and relevant to your life.
  • ReganY
    High vibe podcast! 🙌🏻
    This podcast will nourish your soul! I love Shaman Durek! His content brings so much value to my life!!!
  • stephanie xoxo
    5 Stars, all day
    Everything put forth by Shaman Durek and his team is gold. This podcast is a favorite of mine. The information is expansive. I love listening to Shaman Durek share his wisdom. The meditations are wonderful as well, I feel as though my meditation practice has been up-leveled. This podcast is for anyone who is open to receiving new information on a spiritual level.
  • Gb12333
    i’m in love!!
    I absolutely love this podcast it always brings me into a higher perspective and higher frequency✨ the meditations are so powerful and i am just so thankful to shaman durek for this gift🙏🏼
  • obacker19
    Raise your vibration! 🙌
    Whether you’re already deep into your journey of spiritual healing and rejuvenation, or just getting started organizing your lifestyle around an elevated frequency - this is a must-listen podcast for you! Shaman Durek does an incredible job leading conversations that cover the entire range of mental, emotional, spiritual and cultural challenges we all face learning to navigate the transition to an awakened life. Highly recommend listening and subscribing!
  • AVPOWELL
    YES
    Shaman Durek really knows how to keep the tribe LIT. I look forward to every single share and especially Meditation Wednesdays that LIFT me and SHIFT me completely into the highest realms of LOVE and POWER. The GREATEST podcast for this generation. Stay giant, powerful leaders. Love you — Update: I’m seeing many people giving 1 star reviews merely for the advertising of products that are all good and will help you on your journey; it’s s not just materialistic junk you’ll use once and throw away. Also, you have the option to skip those parts, you know. I think it’s ignorant to completely dismiss the wisdom and power this podcast provides just for the ads which help keep the pod going in the first place. That’s all. Love you all.
  • Eric 7592748274
    Question of Hypocrisy and Why?
    This is the author of the book “Spirit Hacking” whom expressly states we are sheep people to the mainstream media conglomerates who try to get us to buy whatever shiny new thing to keep us enslaved to “the Matrix”. Our force of will is weak, and we can learn to grow and evolve if we can just have a stronger will. I’m disheartened to see all the advertising on this podcast. It begs the question of hypocrisy, regardless if advertising support this podcast in some way, that I’m no longer concerned with reading or recommended the author’s aforementioned book.
  • AmbyGee123
    Exceptional!
    I love this podcast. Shaman Durek has a very REAL approach. I love his energy and his work. This podcast lights me up. Huge fan of Meditation Wednesday!
  • DubExpress
    It’s a mix of politics & meditation. Confusing.
    He has a great voice. But I can’t stand a hypocrite. Talking about ppl concerned with likes, and we kill the planet. As he sits in an air conditioned room pining for likes on his podcasts 🙄 😂 ❤️ ✌️

  • love over everything
    Exactly what my spirit called for
    He was exactly what my spirit needed & everyone I have introduced him too has said the exact same thing. You get it Shaman Durek, thank you for sharing all of your wisdom with us. You have been pivotal in my spiritual growth, for this I am immensely grateful for. You’ve given me permission to be just as I am. As we all are. Thank you 🙏🏼🦋 I look forward to listening to you every single day❤️
  • Jess Worrall
    The people who don’t like him, need him most
    You don’t have to like what he says but if you’re truly on a journey to find yourself, why not start with a blank slate and let Shaman D teach the lesson. I started with his book before I knew anything about him and I’d follow him into the dark.
  • NEVER2MVCH
    Advertising
    Way too much advertising at the beginning... I get it it helps support the podcast but there’s too many, 1 per video max would be fine.

    So Transformational
    This podcast has been so transformational for me! I love the shares and I’m obsessed with the meditations!!! I get something from them every time and immediately get confirmations on what I experienced within days. I’m so grateful for all that you share here.
  • BaileyCookie
    Refreshingly Positive & Calming
    This podcast makes me feel calm and energized at the same time. Each episode makes me feel like I just took a positive vitamin supplement for my emotions. I hope that makes sense. Anyway, I will subscribe ... and like to listen to my favorite episodes multiple times to really absorb the content. Thanks.

    Thank you for helping to guide me in my spiritual awakening. I still have so many questions and can’t wait to learn more. You truly are a magnificent human and I feel your love and send my love right back to you.
  • YOM and Shaman D
    chills
    I heard you in your own magic with Allie and raquelle mantra and I had absolute chills the whole time. I attempted to find the magic in me when you told Allie to hold her hands out and imagine a bright blue eight: I cannot put into words the chills I got and the power I felt within me. You are the light needed to help guide many! Thank you so much for your wisdom!
