Year 2: Master & Seidr Magic

Become certified as a Master Practitioner in Shamanic Energy Medicine, and as a Shamanic Priestess, Tradition Keeper of the Völva, the Path of the Wise Woman in Norse Shamanism

Year 2 is for you if

You want to dive deep into the Cauldron of the Ancient Mothers, letting them awaken you into the feminine magic you are here to weave into the world.

You feel the call from the Ancient Mothers, and you know it is time to take your place, so you can assist in the birthing of a new consciousness.

You’re willing to undertake an in-depth and intensive Master Training in Shamanic Energy Medicine and Seidr Magic, so you can let HER wisdom flow through you - and into your life.

The Master Level is very experiential

On the Master Training, you’ll journey into the mythical landscape of your soul, learning powerful tools such as:

  • Feminine Tracking

  • Advanced Ancestral Healing

  • Seidr Magic Soul Retrieval (in a very embodied way, so completely different from what you learn on Level 1)

  • Norse Shamanism and Seidr Magic

You’ll work especially with Healing Seidr, through ancestral techniques, soul retrievals, embodied remembering, and channeling your own ancestral healing power, wisdom, and magic.

Awaken your ancient wisdom with the power and magic of Seidr

Experience the magic of Seidr

Seidr is an ancient Norse form of shamanism, and it is very powerful.

You’ll learn to work closely with Spirit through trance work, vision quests (utesita), oracular prophecy, embodiment, and journeying into the World of Spirit.

You’ll learn various forms of Seidr, such as:

  • Seidr for Healing

  • Seidr for Prophecy and Divination

  • Seidr for Soul Retrieval and Distant Healing

We all journey with Seidr in different ways, depending on our own skill-set, energy, ancestral wisdom, and how Seidr wants to work through us. Cissi will adapt the different forms of Seidr so as to make sure you can journey with it in a way that’s safe - both for you individually, and for the group, as Seidr is very powerful.

You’ll meet the Norse Goddesses: Freya, Hel, the Norns, Idun, Skadi, the Valkyries, Ran and her nine daughters.

You’ll deepen your relationship with the World Tree Yggdrasil, and journey into the underworld with the Dark Mothers Ran and Hel – to find the golden medicine of your soul.

And most importantly – you’ll reconnect with the ancient feminine power that lives within you. She rises like an inner Valkyrie, radiating light and guiding you to your highest path – where you share your healing medicine, soul gifts, and ancestral wisdom with the world.

The path of the shamanic-witch-Priestess

This form of shamanism was practised by the Norse shamanic-witch-priestesses, known as Völvas. These wise women were healers, seers, and spiritual leaders of their communities.

Most völvas were women, and they dedicated their path to Freya – whose name means "Our Lady." She is not just a goddess of love, but the First Völva, the original shamanic-witch-priestess, who taught Odin the art of Seidr.

She is a powerful goddess of magic, witchcraft, death and rebirth – the one that initiations us into our Seidr Magic – and she helps us step into our power and be like a light in the darkness.

What you need for the Level training:

  • A staff (made of wood, reaching to your heart chakra)

  • A shamanic drum

  • A handmade rattle, made from natural materials

If you’re travelling from overseas, you can borrow a staff during the England retreats.

Two live modules where we dive deep into Seidr magic

Step into the Magic of Seidr in England

Having completed Level 1, you already know how to journey into the World of Spirit.

Now, through Seidr Magic, you’ll begin to embody the ancestral medicine and ancient feminine power that’s meant to work through you – and you’ll experience this when we meet up for our trainings at our retreat venue in Oxfordshire, England.

During these two retreats we dive deep into Seidr Magic, where you’ll be guided by the feminine in a way that’s completely beyond the mind’s ability to understand, or control. This is why you first needed to develop a strong foundation during your Practitioner Training, so that during your Master Training you can dive deep into the cauldron and strengthen the structural feminine within you even more, allowing your feminine magic to blossom and expand.

This master training includes:

ONLINE COURSE IN ADVANCED SHAMANIC ENERGY MEDICINE

You’ll gain access to an in-depth home-study course covering:

  • Feminine tracking (advanced shamanic work)

  • Healing linguistics

  • Ancestral Healing

  • Structuring of an advanced shamanic healing session.

This is rooted in Cissi’s years of experience as an Osteopath, Naturopath, NLP Trainer, and Shamanic Energy Medicine Practitioner and Teacher.

ONLINE COURSE IN NORSE MYTHOLOGY & SEIDR MAGIC

You’ll explore the Norse Creation Myth, journey with goddesses like Freya, Hel, Ran, Skadi, the Valkyries, the Norns, and more.

These journeys awaken the archetypal forces embedded in your soul and help you prepare for Seidr.

MEET UP LIVE ON ZOOM FOR SHAMANIC TRAINING

Regular live sessions on Zoom (2–7:30pm UK time) where you practise advanced shamanic techniques in a safe setting, supervised by Cissi and her teacher team.

You’ll also complete:

  • 6 supervised case studies

  • One written assignment

  • Two practical exams – where the final one is done after all the modules are completed.

TWO MAGICAL LIVE MODULES

You’ll experience two intensely transformational retreats, where we’ll dive deep into the Magic of Seidr. These retreats are held in England, at Charney Manor in Oxfordshire (you’ll have your own room).

You’ll also visit Glastonbury (Red and White Springs), the heart chakra of the world.

You’ll go through such a deep transformation that will help you EMBODY the sacred energies of the Divine Feminine, and this will forever deepen your relationship with your Ancient Mother.

GODDESS MYTHS & DISCOVER YOUR WAY OF WORKING WITH SPIRIT

You’ll dive deep into various Goddess Myths, so they can become your teachers, such as Inanna, Persephone, Hel, Ran, Skadi, the Valkyries, Freya, Brigid, Idun, Saga and Mary Magdalene.

Each one reveals another face of the Ancient Mother, and as you get to know them, they’ll reveal their medicine for you.

This is when you really begin to awaken your own feminine magic and intuitive knowing - it’s already wired into your DNA, and these myths acts as keys, unlocking this ancient wisdom within you.

Certificates awarded upon completion:

  • Master Practitioner in Shamanic Energy Medicine (after you have completed all the modules, assignments and exams).

  • Shamanic Priestess & Tradition Keeper of the Völva, Path of the Wise Woman in Norse Shamanism & Seidr Magic.

  • Dedicated to the dark mother

    Held by Cissi, there is no abyss too deep, no pain too unbearable and no height too high to dare to face it. Held by her immense power and love, anything is possible. I can say with certainty that my healing, which took place deep within me and my past, was only possible thanks to her. Cissi is a primal force filled with love, dedicated to the Dark Mother and the healing of all of us. A heartfelt thank you!

    Regina Schwartz, Sweden

  • The most transformative time in my life

    The Master year with Cissi has been the most transformative time of my life. I’ve learned so much and for the first time truly stepped into my power. I’ve been deeper down and higher up than ever before. I’ve awakened the wise woman, the queen and the goddess in me. It’s been intense for sure, but the reward when you put in that effort is so magical.

    Frida Alsterlund, Sweden

  • Allowing the wise woman to rise

    I have embraced the light within myself in a stronger way, with a new found passion, an excitement for what is coming. I am allowing the wise woman within to rise and to birth new dreams, new beginnings. It’s a deep knowing rather than a learning, an expansive awakening allowing me to evolve on my journey in this life.

    Lindsey Henderson, UK

  • Awaken the Wild Woman Within

    Cissi is an exceptionally talented Wise Woman and Teacher. She gives her All.

    If you are willing, she will awaken you to the Wild Woman within you and open your heart to peace and love.

    Mairead Kenny, Ireland

  • You will not be the same person as you started

    Having studied various healing pathways both in the UK and as far as Peru, I can honestly say her teachings go far and beyond anything I have ever encountered. It is a deep dive and journey into the world of spirit where I’ve been able to reconnect with my higher self, the wise woman within.

    Joanna Brodie, UK

Journey with your soul sisters and

Cissi Williams

Cissi trained in Osteopathy and Naturopathy in London (she qualified in 1997 with First Class Honours), in NLP and Hypnosis (she’s an NLP Trainer).

She’s done various shamanic trainings, such as from the Norse, Celtic and the Incas wisdom traditions, having studied with many different teachers, including from Four Winds Society, Spirit of the Incas, Glastonbury Goddess Temple, Q’ero wisdom keepers in Peru (Don Fransisco, Don Alejandro and Dona Maria), and she’s been inspired by many shamanic teachers such as Zindra Andersson, Linda Fitch, HeatherAsh Amara, Alberto Villoldo, Sandra Ingerman, Jane Burns, Evelyn Rysdyk and Asha Frost.

 

Her NLP teachers include John Grinder, Carmen Bostic St Clair, Michael Carrol, and David Shepherd, and she’s been deeply influenced by spiritual teachers such as Marianne Williamson, Neale Donald Walsch, Denise Linn, Louise Hay, Tosha Silver, Gregg Braden, Chameli Ardagh, Andrew Harvey, Caroline Myss, Meggan Watterson, and Norse Scholar Maria Kvilhaug.

Cissi has given more than 25,000 healing sessions, helping her clients, patients and students tune into their inner wisdom and connect with Spirit’s guidance. She’s reached many more through Awaken Your Inner Wisdom, a podcast with over half a million unique downloads, as well as from being the founder of two spiritual magazines - Inspire in Sweden (which she sold in 2017), and Inspired Wellbeing in UK (which later became the podcast).

Her absolute passion is to help you tune into your inner wisdom, as she knows there is an incredible power embedded in your bones – the power of the Wise Woman - who is longing to be awakened and rise once more, so she can share her medicine with the world.

She’s the author of the book Your Heart Knows How to Heal You (published in April 2025 by Findhorn/Inner Tradition).

 FAQs

 

  • The advanced material for Level 2 you lose access to after the training. It is there only to support your learning for Level 2.

  • As you pay for the training in instalments, all money paid is non-refundable (including the deposit).

  • Yes, you can pay in 11 or 19 monthly instalments (the deposit counts as the first instalment).

  • The time commitment is 450 hours.

    This training is very intense as it not only requires you to learn new material, but also invites you to dive deep into the cauldron of healing, transformation, magic and rebirth.

  • The pre-requisites for the Master Training is that you have done the Level 1 training with one of our Teachers who run trainings that follow our curriculum (Debbie Price, Lindsey Marquez and Lina Lanestrand).

    You can sign up for the waiting list for Level 2 once you are enrolled in a Level 1 training.

  • The number of students will be limited in such a way that we can all safely journey into the Sacred Cauldron of Transformation, Magic and Rebirth together.

    We make sure students are well supported by the Teacher Team, hence we limit the numbers of students.

    The group is a mix of new students, and also students who are already qualified Master Practitioners who are journeying into the cauldron of Seidr Magic again, as each spiral takes us deeper.

    Hence, the cauldron is VERY strong, as the group is firmly committed to awakening this ancient feminine power and magic within us.

    So be prepared to dive DEEP.

  • If you miss one or two of the online dates, then you can watch the replay videos afterwards, so you can catch up that way. You then also have to book a private mentoring session with someone from the Teacher Team, who will then support you in moving through the exercises of what has been taught on the day you missed. Each missed day equals 4 hours of missed supervised teaching, and you can book these 4-hour ‘catch-up’ sessions with one of the teachers (price is only £100 for a 4-hour slot).

    Each module has to be passed in order to move into the next module.

    You must attend both face-to-face modules - if you miss any of these dates then it’s better to wait with doing the training to another year.

  • Attending the live modules are mandatory for both being allowed to continue the training, and for certification.

    The live modules are deeply transformational, healing and magical - and during these modules you’ll also become initiated into the ancient wisdom of the Divine Mothers of Darkness & Light, so they’ll be your mentors after these modules.

    This is something that has to be experienced live, on site, and cannot be bypassed.

  • Everyone who wants to be certified must do the exams.

  • This training is for all who feel called to awaken their inner feminine wisdom, magic and power.

    An absolute key ingredient is that you are willing to heal deeply, willing to witness your own shadows and inner wounds, and willing to take responsibility for your own healing, transformation and awakening.

    This training is VERY intense and you need to be committed to put in the work needed to move through it.

    You also need to be willing to learn how to journey into the World of Spirit in this shamanic way, and be able to receive feedback so you can grow and develop as a practitioner.

  • If you regularly take recreational drugs, micro-dose on Amanita muscaria, or have an alcohol dependancy, then this training is not suitable, as we journey deep into our bodies, connecting with our emotions and the feminine - and we need our full awareness, presence and connection with our body to do that.

    For this reason, as we do Seidr Magic, during the whole training, students cannot take any mind-altering drugs or plants. Once you do Seidr with the intensity we do it, you will absolutely understand why.

    The training is also not suitable if you have a clinically diagnosed mental illness, such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, psychosis, or clinical depression.

  • The minimum age for the training is 23.

  • Yes, as part of the training you’ll be required to have a minimum of three private shamanic energy medicine sessions during the training with one of the Teacher Trainer Students (who are already certified by Cissi as Master Practitioners in Energy Medicine). These sessions will be at a heavily discounted rate (£350 for all 3 sessions, which can be paid in monthly instalments).

    These sessions will help you to go much deeper in your own healing journey, and it will also give you a deeper understanding of how it feels to be taken through a shamanic energy medicine session in a fluid and intuitive way.

    Of course, during the training you will both give and receive many sessions with your fellow students - which is wonderful, and how you’ll learn. AND it’s also highly useful to receive sessions from those practitioners who have more experience in this way of working with shamanic energy medicine.

  • No, this is a very unique training, weaved from Cissi’s extensive experience in working with the body (osteopathy), mind (NLP, hypnosis and A Course in Miracles), and Soul and Spirit (shamanic energy medicine wisdom from the Incas, Norse and Celtic).

    So you will need to do Level 1, or having completed a Practitioner Training in Shamanic Energy Medicine with an approved Teacher, who is following a similar curriculum as the one taught at Nordic Light Academy of Energy Medicine.
