ABOUT SHAMAN JOHN WHITEHORSE
MEET
JOHN “WHITEHORSE” SCHWAB
The Shamanic Trekker

John Whitehorse is a shaman trained by the Four Winds Society and initiated in Peru by indigenous Shamans of the Q’ero tribe located in the High Andes. He has received multiple rites and initiations, including the nine rites of the Munay-Ki, which were energetically transmitted in Peru by the indigenous shaman elders. His private practice is located in Santa Fe, New Mexico and in Denver, Colorado.
John is very much like you. He was born and raised in a small mid-western town in rural Wisconsin. He went to church, went off to college, got married, and eventually got divorced. He lived within the confines of corporate America working for several of the largest banks in the United States. he gained status, accumulated cars, a big home and all the trappings of living the American Dream
Then through a period of self examination he started fundraising for a national charity. Through this service for others he began to find himself.
Driving to his executive office he really began to question an unexamined life. It was time for a change and re-invent who John “was”. That’s when the path of the Shaman opened up and presented itself in an unexpected way. John took action into the unknown and trusted his intuition. John met his future self through his shamanic work and journey. When John stepped on this path he met his twin flame and wife Kristen who shares similar core beliefs of spirituality and living the life you deserve.
A life free from traditional expectations, and projections, and be in a place of service to others.
Together, John and his wife Kristen White, felt guided to share the beautiful teachings of the indigenous shamans of Peru with the world. They travelled to Peru to a remote village with a film crew in 2016 and created an award-winning documentary, Shamanic Trekker: Journey to the Source.
John had a vision of a white horse that kept visiting him in his mediation and dream work. He decided to accept the vision and take on the power of the horse archetype in his work with others and the planet. Soon after this decision, John was gifted a real powerful and stunningly beautiful white horse who now lives on his ranch in Santa Fe. A magical confirmation from the spirit realm that John is working in his true path to serve humanity. John works with individuals and small groups both virtual and in person by providing shamanic energy medicine healing sessions and training on the shamanic traditions, rights and initiations.
When spirit calls, John offers a cultural spiritual immersion experience in Peru with the shamans from the film. He has a vision in the works to share their teachings with the planet through the development of a College of Shamanic Healing Arts. The guiding principle is that the training and the connection to this lineage will help support the awakening of consciousness unfolding on the planet right now. The ancient shamans foretold of this time in the future hundreds of years ago, we are now able to “dream into being” a deep level of transformation for all who seek illumination.

ABOUT
ALBERTO
Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D.

John’s mentor is Alberto Villoldo. Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D., a psychologist and medical anthropologist, has studied the healing practices of the Amazon and Inka shamans for more than 25 years. While at San Francisco State University, he founded the Biological Self-Regulation Laboratory to study how the mind creates psychosomatic health and disease. Dr. Villoldo directs The Four Winds Society, where he trains individuals throughout the world in the practice of energy medicine. Founder of The Four Winds Society, Alberto instructs individuals throughout the world in the practice of energy medicine. Dr. Villoldo has written numerous best-selling books, including Shaman, Healer, Sage; The Four Insights, Courageous Dreaming and Power Up Your Brain.
Dr. Alberto Villoldo studied with a number of the Laika elders to distill the essence of their healing practices of energy medicine. He trained with the jungle medicine people and traveled and collected stories and healing practices from the Nazca region to Lake Titcaca, the Sea on Top of the World, which legends say the Inka were born.
Working with Don Antonio Alberto reconstructed the many threads of the Laika healing traditions to create a set of sacred technologies that transform the body, heal the soul, and can change the way we live and the way we die. They explain that we are surrounded by a Luminous Energy Field (LEF) whose source is located in infinity, a matrix that maintains the health and vibrancy of the physical body.
“When you practice living consciously, you’re fully conscious of the impact of each thought, intention, and action you have, and you take care to make them positive and healing instead of selfish and destructive.”
