What is a power animal retrieval? Are practices like power animal retrievals only effective for leaders or can anyone in a work situation benefit as well?
The power animal retrieval is a process by which a shaman will “journey” (a meditative process) to find and return a power animal to you. This animal totem will empower you and, if you use it properly, give you guidance on important life issues. It is the essence of the animal that serves you and they can be retrieved for an individual, project, or organization. It’s not a new idea. After all, that is what mascots are. If you think of Merrill Lynch, what comes to mind? A bull. The United States? An eagle. Russia? The Democratic party? A model of automobile? How about your local high school football team? The power animal for “The Corporate Shaman” book project is a Raven, a messenger, a healer, and one who can do its work over long distances. It seems appropriate. When you learn how to journey, anyone can find his/her own power animal. And it is a useful process for anyone, no matter what level in the organization.
