"In the age of 'new-age-pixie-channelled-authentic-extraterrestrial- Native-American-Mayan-prophecy-reiki-rainbow-crystal-shamanism' it is delightful to find an intelligent book with a grasp of what shamanism really is and I would like to recommend this book to anyone who wants to actually study the real thing. It's not going to teach you it all, but it's going to give you a good eclectic breadth of knowledge about this world of amazing traditions. And for me I am personally delighted to be able to put it on my book shelf... and it saved me the trouble of writing it too!"
Nick Breeze Wood, Editor, Sacred Hoop, Issue 57, 2007

Imagine having the following dream: A spider appears, tells you that you need an "ego death", and then rips you to shreds. You might think that was a bad thing. You'd be wrong. If you look up "spiders", "ego death", and "dismemberment" in your handy-dandy Encyclopedia of Shamanism, you'll discover that, shamanically speaking this dream is in fact a powerful gift from the Spirit. Intrigued?

The mission of Last Mask Center is three-fold. The first is to offer a high quality shamanic healing from an initiated shaman and the necessary integration of these often chaotic/cathartic experiences. The second is to teach the new "life skills" necessary for you to live in a way that honors and celebrates the wholeness and integrity of your soul in a culture that doesn't. The third is to offer community healing rituals to heal the types of wounds and illness that cannot be healed one-on-one, in any modality.

"The important thing is this: to be ready at any moment to sacrifice what you are for what you could become."
Charles Dubois

Shamanic healer, teacher, and author, Christina Pratt, opened the Last Mask Center for Shamanic Healing in New York in 1990. She has been serving clients on both coasts since then, opening the Center in Portland in 2001. Pratt, a teacher of exceptional clarity, humor, and inspiration, has taught at The Omega Institute, Rowe Center, Hollyhock, Breitenbush Hot Springs, and Sleeping Lady Retreat Center in addition to the workshops produced by Last Mask Center. She is a frequent and honored speaker for the American Holistic Medical Association and local salons. Pratt's book, An Encyclopedia of Shamanism, was received with good reviews. It is available in paper back through our website or in hard cover from Rosen Publishing Group.

Pratt's training began in 1986 amid a lifetime of dance. Her shamanic work is a synthesis of studies with Ecuadorian, Tibetan, Tamang, and African shamans, the Foundation for Shamanic Studies, the Center for Intuitive Energy Processing, and personal shamanic experience. Masks of Illusions and the Authentic Self was first offered in Hawaii in 1992. The Cycle of Transformation has continued each year since, providing opportunities for transformation and initiation.

The Last Mask Center offers a wide variety of individual and community shamanic healing experiences, workshops and classes. Ms Pratt is always willing to travel to work with committed and creative people.
