Welcome

To the home of ‘Rewilding the Soul’, created by Samara: seer & spirit walker, animist, teacher, shamanic healer, writer, spiritual mentor, nature & spirit connection guide, earth based rites of passage guide, forest school leader and Ph.D student.

I offer 1-1 spiritual and wellbeing mentoring, shamanic healing, ecotherapy and archaeotherapy, plus a variety of group based courses, both in-person and online. You can find information about these offerings within these pages, which are slowly being updated (2026).

For the last year, I have been researching for a Ph.D in history, exploring people’s connection with the land and spirit over the past 400 years, specifically in Devon, challenging the perception that people in Britain didn’t have earth-based spiritual practices in the more recent past. The projects primary focus is around people’s perception of nature and draws upon understandings of animism to interpret people’s beliefs and practices in the past. I will capture my ideas and research, as the project unfolds, on Substack, which you can access and sign up to below.

Additionally, I have been researching the old ways of ancient Britain for many years, as a prehistorian (BA, MA), particularly focused on the spiritual heritage of the British Isles.

You can find out more about the ethos and foundation of my shamanic practice and offerings within these pages. If you have any questions or would like to explore connecting, you can reach me on email at samara@rewildingthesoul.org
