Frequently Asked Questions

What is Toltec Shamanism?

Toltec Shamanism is a spiritual tradition rooted in ancient wisdom, particularly associated with the Toltec civilization of Central Mexico. It encompasses a holistic approach to life, blending physical embodied activity and a deep connection with nature. Central to Toltecquity is the pursuit of personal freedom, self-awareness and shifting your sense of perception.

Comprehending it necessitates practice and first-hand experience since the depth of understanding goes beyond what reading alone can convey.

Do you run any workshops outside of Cornwall?

Our workshops take place in Cornwall, a location chosen for its profound historical and energetic ties to Mexico, the birthplace of this transformative practice (learn more here). Additionally, we offer online 1:1 Recapitulation workshops, allowing you to participate from any location. To schedule a session, kindly contact us here.

What types of workshops do you offer?

We provide inclusive 1-day, in-person workshops suitable for individuals of all abilities, as well as more immersive 2-3 day experiences set in back-to-basics natural environments (with camping, or basic accommodation, depending on the workshop). It's important to note that these longer workshops require a foundational level of physical and psychological well-being, given their invigorating and challenging nature.

Please note that attending a Recapitulation Breathwork workshop is a pre-requisite for attending a 2-3 day immersive workshop.

Why do you have to take the Recapitulation workshop before any other workshops?

Recapitulation breathwork stands as a fundamental pillar in our approach and is a recurring practice in all 2-3 day workshops. It's crucial to grasp the basics and cultivate your own understanding and practice before engaging at this level. This transformative practice empowers us to release energetic attachments, reclaim lost energy, and reintegrate it into our holistic being, embracing both our physical and energetic bodies.

Is there a recommended order for taking the workshops?

Aside from starting your journey with Recapitulation Breathwork, there's no predetermined sequence for our workshops. However, we recommend participating in multiple workshops before undertaking 'The Burial' or 'Leap for Freedom' due to their greater physical and psychological demands. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need further clarification.

Can I train with ‘The Way’ to be a Toltec Facilitator?

Following your participation in multiple workshops, we can initiate a discussion about the possibility of undergoing training to become a facilitator for future workshops.

I have a question, who can I contact?

We invite questions! Please contact Founder of ‘The Way to Awareness’ and Head Facilitator, Caroline, here.
