Here's an insight from the Shaman's blog; "You, who is on the other side, reading me in this moment, I wish you well. May the deepest peace immerse in you. May your eyes be cleared to see all the beauty available. May your ears hear the sound of the Goddess. May your nose smell the fragrance of life. May your mouth taste the flavours of love. May your hands dance on the feet of an eucalyptus tree being blown in the wind. My heart feels your love and whoever you are, there is a little space in me that is only yours. Remember whenever you need, that this Shaman even without knowing you personally is always with you. Always. "  Shaman Alba Maria's Blog 

Prayer to the Great Mother


Our mother who is in the sky, the earth, and everywhere,
Blessed is your beauty and your abundance,
Bring to our hearts the key which opens the portal of Love,
May each one of us respect every being's path and
The exercise of forgiveness become part of our existence,
May we welcome at our table those
Whom want to share with us the sacred food,

Our mother who is in the sky, the earth, and everywhere,
May the greater Purpose guide our steps,
And the beat of our hearts unite with the heartbeat of the Earth,
So we may pulsate as a single rhythm,
May the stars guide us through the dark nights,
And the sun shine brightly on our bodies,

Hey Great Spirit,
Hey Great Mother,
Hey Shaman!

Shaman Alba Maria


Alba Maria is a Shaman, spiritual teacher, psychologist, an author and the first visionary of the Terra Mirim Foundation, a well recognised and long running intentional community in Brazil, where she has been continually working and living for the last 21 years. Alba Maria has been guiding people for over 30 years in several parts of the world through journeys of self-discovery whilst passing down the teachings learnt from her Indian grandmother and ancestors.
 
Shaman Alba Maria walks on the path that the Mother Goddess guides her. Free from rigid thoughts, she tries to see life with eyes emptied from already existent concepts. The Mother Goddess is her guide, her greater Love. Through the night she walks in Terra Mirim's little piece of Atlantic Forest, in the afternoon wanders across the surrounding vulnerable villages in the Valley of Itamboata, visiting people, listening to the women claiming for a more dignified life, and their citizen rights. At night observing the trees, she offers them her days and prayers.

She shares with others her own internal transformation, and serves all those who are ready to dive into the depths of their inner nature and look at themselves without fear,  showing how each and everyone of us can encounter his/her real self - the divine beauty and love, that inhabits us all.
 
Alba Maria is dedicated to serve the Highest Will, living her life with love for nature, the Divine Mother. Her daily life is lived very intensively with the community as a form of "continuous inner awakening in practise".

 



 

Terra Mirim

 
Terra Mirim Foundation & Shamanic Community is a 23-year-old, intentional movement. Located in the Metropolitan Region of Salvador, the capital of Bahia, in the north-eastern part of Brazil. Terra Mirim as an ever-evolving communitarian movement works to transform the reality of the territory where it is located, thus also being a place of planetary healing in action. It is based upon the ancient Shamanic tradition of the people of the Earth, and through its experience has developed a methodology known as Integrative Ecology, in which a conscious unity between humanity and the planet is recognised as a fundamental principle to be lived for a healthy humanity and planet. In Integrative Ecology people learn to re-integrate nature inside and outside through deep contact and relation with the four sacred elements (earth, water, fire, air) to the four dimensions of being: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. In fact, according to the Tradition of the Great Mother the healing of the planet is interdependent with the healing of the human being. The work in the external territory starts with the work over oneself and, beyond theory, Terra Mirim’s socio-environmental methodology brings value to action and to the ever growing learning spiral which comes as a result of being its own actions.

Over the last two decades, Terra Mirim has developed a diverse range of social and environmental services and programs (see example below) aimed to stimulate human emancipation, care for the Earth whilst empowering the people from the surrounding Valley as well as, before all, remaining a Shamanic Centre of Light and School for numerous seekers who tirelessly arrive from several lands across the world, searching for a meaningful and
conscious possible way of living and honouring our Mother Earth, learning with the guidance of ShamAM Alba Maria to dive deeply into ourselves, dreams, shadows and highest purpose. In Terra Mirim everyday a precious lesson is offered to be learned and honoured - where an invisible thread is weaved from the stars to our innermost sacred core.
