Meet Robinette Kennedy

Robinette is an independent scholar, clinical anthropologist and shamanistic practitioner who works at the intersection of consciousness and culture. Her aim is to help people strengthen their relationships with nature, spirit, and self.

Robinette’s experiential workshops are based on original research that brings to life a spiritual practice embodied by the sacred art of prehistoric Crete, where she has lived off and on since 1975, sometimes leading workshops and tours.

In the USA, as a student of Nepali shaman Bhola Nath Banstola, Robinette teaches experiential retreats based on Indo-European shamanism rooted in the Himalayas.

Sacred art in the first European culture (Crete 9,000-450 BCE) illuminates a time when people openly celebrated their relationships with the spirit world and nature as the driving forces of their daily lives. Certain images from this period on Crete suggest that prehistoric rituals included shamanic practices. Until now, it wasn’t known just what these practices were.

In the Sept. 22-24th shamanic retreat, participants will begin to learn the basics of Indo-European-Himalayan rituals and practices.

You are more than you think you are. There are dimensions of your being and a potential for realization and consciousness that are not included in your concept of yourself. Your life is much deeper and broader than you conceive it to be here. What you are living is but a fractional inkling of what is really within you, what gives you life, breadth, and depth.
— Joseph Campbell
