History of the XamAM School

Having worked for more than 30 years of my life with individuals and groups, I realised that one thing that we all lack is education. But I am not talking about a formal, cultural or social education. I am talking about an emotional, spiritual, and mainly existential education (XamAM, Priestess and Psychologist Alba Maria).

What to do when you are facing a decision to make? What to do when a love has gone away? What to do with a message that I hear in the silence of the night or even during my day? How to say yes to my heart or to my intuition? What about my destiny? Who am I?

Most people, most of the time, do not possess the adequate tools to enable them to answer these complex questions.

In this field of learning and seeking, I immersed as XamAM, as a seeker and as a psychologist.  It was by decoding myself that I realized the need to make these responses in my field of teachings. Thus, emerged the XamAM School, an alive School.

And, as every Alive School, it requires everyone there to really want to live.

And to live, specifically means:

• Be honest with yourself and with life;
• Tear apart hidden masks;
• Realise and accept the shadows, changing them into healing tools;
• Strengthen your inner light;
• Develop the five senses;
• Strengthen the intuition;
• Contribute to the process of DNA change, among other needs.

The classes take place by deep immersion in the areas mentioned above. Slowly, with the understanding that this is something that happens as a process, and not a phenomenon itself, each man or woman will acquire the proper tools to use in their daily lives, as well as to apply them with their clients.

The methodology of the XamAM School was constituted and built from purely intuitive moments, knowledge acquired during the 30 years of services provided by the XamAM, Priestess and Psychologist Alba Maria on this planet, as well as from the Knowledge and Trust of each generous energy that inhabits and emanates from each one of you.

It is a 3 year programme, constituting 49 days during each year of intense dive. It is a profound immersion during November until the third week of December of each luna season. Seven moon passages.

It is important to emphasise that if for any reason you are not able to take the full journey, you may take only one module and take the other modules at another time, as you feel necessary. But, the XamAM School’s minimum acceptable enrolment is  one complete module. If you can’t take the full immersion, XamAM suggests you take at least two complete modules. 

Our dives take place as the following. Annually:

• First cycle:  The medicine of the Four Elements of the Nature: Earth, Water, Fire and Air;
• Second cycle: Our Inner Animals: the Healing animal, the Ally or the animal of Power, the animal of Wisdom and the Master animal;
• Third Cycle: The Sacred medicines:  Silence, Search for Vision, Purification Hut, Ayahuasca, Wachuma and Sexuality.

At the end of each cycle, one of the most import requests we have to the seekers is that they apply the tools they acquired to their daily lives, that they remind themselves of the importance of strengthening their tools, so they are sharp and ready to be used whenever necessary.

In the end of the complete process, the seeker should be able to respond to their inner questions and, consequently, be a lot more prepared to be a healer or a Shaman. More than you thought possible was provided to you and with what seemed impossible in the beginning, each one will have to make plans to make them understandable and viable.

The final responsibility is personal. Non-transferable.
