Human beings have been sharing stories for hundreds of thousands of years.

And with those stories came the emotional, spiritual, and physical knowledge of the ancients.

Sharman Durek, a sixth generation shaman and best-selling author of spirit hacking,

bridges the gap between science and spirituality and brings us back to our roots. He's here to

bring forth the ancient wisdom of our elders to help heal and bring happiness into our modern society.

The time has come to end co-dependency and put the power back into people's hands.
