Seek not abroad, turn back into thyself, for in the inner man dwells the truth.

Soul Hunting Testimonials

The journey for me this summer has led me to this place, but the Soul Hunting Retreat was the biggest thing that has ever happened to me. The change in me is so deep and so profound. Your words ring around my head on a daily basis and I act upon them with integrity. Having that integrity has brought flow and magic where it was not before. I feel truly honoured to have been part of such a group.......it was a truly magical experience and just the very beginning of my shamanic journey.

This weekend I participated in your Soul Hunting Ritual in Manhattan. I just want to thank you for the most liberating and cathartic experience I’ve had in my years of practicing and teaching Shamanism. What I thought would be a fun evening (a friend gifted me with the surprise of this ritual workshop) became the turning point of a long and unconscious struggle. The awareness of a deep embedded trauma and the reconciliation of the memory within my consciousness unleashed tremendous healing. Thanks to your work I am now enjoying the magical freedom of Being.

What a magical time the past months have been for me! I've had chance to catch my breath now and to my surprise, the magic continues. Each day holds a discovery of greater ease for me. My long time companion, Miss Anxiety, has far less of my attention. As I move through the day, there is a quality of timelessness and yet a gentler connection than before that keeps my attention to the details of the moment.

My Soul Hunting experience is difficult to describe in words. There is a "knowing" I took out of the workshop but I can't explain it very well. I just know it was the only time in my life when I completely let go of myself, let go of the control. I was terrified at first, but ultimately the release was incredible. Very powerful! I made huge strides along my healing journey. I highly recommend the Soul Hunt for anyone who is ready to really heal. I mean REALLY heal, not just sit around and talk about healing. The Soul Hunt is an experience, a physical, mental and spiritual experience. Sometimes I am able to go back to that place and relive that incredible part of my journey.

So in my Soul Hunt my tiger led me. I could feel a force I think of as God... having his hands over my heart as to allow me to keep my soul. I experienced a lot of relief, or more like part of me has come home. Things at home have been a lot different, much more peaceful and accepting. I did share this with my children, we all cried, and they thought it was great.

I attended the International Conference On Business And Consciousness in Acapulco, Mexico in December, 1999. While there I had the good fortune to participate in an evening Soul Hunting Ritual with Wilbert Alix. During the ritual he guided 300 of us into a 'trance' where I became an animal, a black panther, full of strong muscles and tremendous life force. Soon I realized that the black panther was ME! It showed me that if I trust my instincts, my gut instincts, and move with them then the strength that flows through me guides my life as sure as the stars guided the Polynesians and the Hawaiians. When it was time to dance as my animal, the black panther, I danced until my skin glistened with sweat. Then I danced even harder and grew stronger. I had never enjoyed dancing more in my whole life. It felt so good to be moving, sure of myself, sweating, unafraid of anyone around me, confident in my actions. Moving on instinct and flowing with it. That's what I've taken away from that night in Acapulco with Wilbert Alix.

On my first Soul Hunt I travel into a trauma that I had experienced in my teen years that had an insidious way of manifesting itself over and over again in my life. I had deep fear of abandonment. Through Wilbert and the Soul Hunt experience, I was able to reclaim that 'child' piece of myself that had left my body as a result of the trauma. I have learned to love her and understand her pain and keep her home with me, safe in my body, and felt in my heart. Soul Hunting is a must do part of the recovery process.

"I am very grateful for the work you do and the impact it has had on my relationship with someone that I love very much... someone who was in your workshop in Denver this year. The Soul Hunting work that he did in your workshop definitely effected BOTH of us, even though I wasn't a participant in the event... at least I wasn't there in the physical realm. Thank you."

The workshop was awesome and freed up my energy. I can feel my personal power now and my shamanic vision has grown leaps and bounds in the past week!! Can’t wait to work with you again.

And I have to tell you that the healing I had at the Soul Hunt has affected my life in untold ways around relationships, my graphics/art, and lifestyle. Mainly the shifts I find in myself aren't the old familiar fears I had before and life is just "different". The last time I recall such a dramatic lifestyle change was in the One Experience back in '85 and that is saying a lot considering how much I have done in the growth/spiritual arena over the years. In fact, I will send you some images of the fine art paintings I am doing these days. They are quite amazing portraits of people here in Sedona and, again, a confidence in what I do has emerged since the Soul Hunt.

Since the SouI Hunting Ritual I have been processing soooo much energy and want to put out a bigggg hug and much thanks to you and your staff. I feel like I released 10 years of therapy in one night thru this ritual process. My body released remnants of early childhood... it was vundebar AND last time I released this level of trauma started me on this path at 16.

I have been Trance Dancing for several years now, have participated in a number of Soul Hunting rituals and attended the One Experience two years ago in Atlanta, Georgia. It has been a journey of profound insight and growth. Wilbert Alix has an extensive knowledge of human beings and our capacity for spiritual expansion. He has deftly woven shamanic ritual with modern-day personal growth techniques to create workshops that explore the recesses of our psyche and energize our spirits. I am grateful beyond measure to have experienced this work.

Wilbert, You create such a safe environment and with so much love and compassion. THANK YOU !!! I am still processing my experience. Much light and love, Simone

For me, Soul Hunting is a form of spiritual healing. Until I had this experience I did realize that during my life I had pieces of my soul taken from me. This experience has allowed me to retrieve back some of the many pieces that I have lost, but I have also learned that I must continue to work on my spirit and my ego so that I will not lose these piece again.

Thank you you lovely man. I am truly grateful to you for your strength and the courage and commitment that allows you to hold such a safe and powerful space for all of us who took your Soul Hunting Workshop in Asheville airport. I am still graced by the results of that experience...
