YES! I WANT THIS!

Connect to your Power Within. 


Step into your calling. Learn to hold powerful space.

Become the practitioner others trust.

There’s a reason you’re here. You feel it — that pull toward something deeper.
A knowing that you’re meant to hold space, to guide others, to work with energy, spirit, and transformation.

But most trainings leave you unsure.
Surface-level. Rushed. Missing the depth you know this work requires.

This is different.

YES! I WANT THIS!

This is where you become the practitioner.

Set in a remote valley in Wales, this immersive training is designed to take you beyond theory and into embodied practice.
You won’t just “learn shamanism.”

You’ll become someone who can:

Sit confidently with a client in deep process

Navigate the spirit world with clarity and trust

Hold grounded, safe, transformational group spaces

Facilitate real, lasting change

Build unshakable confidence in your practice.
Many people finish trainings still doubting themselves.
Here, we do it differently.
We start with the foundations most courses skip — because without them, real confidence is impossible.

You’ll develop:

  • A strong, grounded personal practice
  • Energetic awareness and protection
  • The ability to open and close space safely
  •  Deep trust in your own intuition and connection

    So that by the end, you’re not asking “Am I ready?”

    You’ll know you are.

Learn to work with clients and groups — for real

This isn’t just personal development.

You’ll be trained to:

Work one-to-one with clients confidently

Hold group ceremonies and circles

Facilitate transformation while staying grounded and present

 

Work in a trauma-informed, professional way

 

This means you can begin practicing as soon as you complete the training.

Jim "Wolf" Gardner. 

Texan native Jim Gardner is a Toltec shamanic teacher, master fire walk instructor, and workshop facilitator devoted to guiding others toward true fulfilment and joy.

This awakening became his life’s work.

Through what he calls the Journey to Joy, Jim has developed powerful tools and insights that help others release what no longer serves them and reconnect with what truly matters.

With a passion for meditation and transformational practices, Jim supports you to:

• Uncover your true passions

Here's what people have to say about working with me

I love the idea of meditating, I know all it's benefits. Can I do it? So, so difficult! Until I took one of Jim's classes. He guided me with utmost patience and the most amazing holding of space through all my blocks and difficulties that I had about and with meditating. I was truly held and understood. And I did it! Even my head went still. And that's a huge achievement for me! Thank you, Jim!
 MARIE SCHLEMM TAO OF CHOCOLATE “ Much gratitude to Jim for leading by example. I appreciate Jim's authenticity and teaching style. I am so glad I signed up for 7 Keys to Meditation. I appreciate that this course has given me the foundational tools helpful to meditate and the consistent support in establishing my own daily practice. I was ready to commit to a consistent daily meditation practice and this course appeared at the perfect time. If you are ready and you want the extra support and accountability, I recommend this class. The group is small, confidential, and safe. No previous experience necessary. TARA CAMPBELL Dancing Eagle Designs “ I started meditating many years ago, and explored different teachers, styles and learned a lot. About meditation. About myself. I can easily say it changed my life. And the journey continues as I recently joined a meditation group led by Jim. I was blown away by how he weaves real-life stories of his own vast experience (and those of his students) into his teaching. He provides the group with a safe space, so that it becomes easy to drift into deep meditation, let go and experience the moment. I can't wait to see what else I will discover in his upcoming course! BEATE JANSSEN The Wize Dog “ Before I attended Jim’s class, my mind was always concentrating on the future. I was worried, not being able to quiet my mind and live in the present. I quickly realized that I was even rushing my breathing during meditation class, thinking about the end result. And then I decided to let go, started breathing from my soul level, and experienced the joyful and peaceful life everyone deserves to have. I am so thankful to Jim for his meditation classes and for the fierce firewalking experience! LORA GEORGIEVA Destination College “ I joined the seven keys to meditation with Jim to shift from doing guided meditations and develop my own meditation practice. The seven keys and the container Jim holds with the group helping me build a solid practice for and within myself. TAMMY SHOTWELL. Owner, Salon Iris “ view more

FAQs

WHAT IF MY MIND WANDERS?

We develop our ability to focus and choose where we focus by redirecting back to focus during meditation. So your wandering mind is an opportunity to develop your focal superpowers.

WHAT IF IT IS UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN I SIT ON THE FLOOR?

We will meet you where you are and make accommodations to facilitate you starting your daily mediation practice. We welcome practitioners at all levels.

WHAT IF I HAVE TRIED BEFORE AND WASN’T ABLE TO MEDITATE?

I have been teaching groups of meditators for over a decade and consistently get the feedback that someone was unable to meditate previously, but was able to do it within the container. It is those people who inspire me to teach meditation.
