Shaman, Healer, Sage

Plot Summary

Shaman, Healer, Sage tells the story of Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D., an extraordinary man who transitioned from a career in modern medical science to one possessing a deep knowledge and understanding of the ancient energy medicine of the legendary Inca and Q'ero shamans of South America. Villoldo gave up a promising career in the United States as a psychologist and medical anthropologist to study the healing practices of the Amazon and Inca shamans with whom he has worked with for more than 25 years. His bestselling book, also entitled Shaman, Healer, Sage, serves as the foundation of this spectacular biographical documentary in which he shares his life's work, showing how your mind creates aging and disease in the body. Villoldo uses the film to start the initiated on a course to reverse this process as a modern-day shaman.
