About the author
Paul Francis is the author of The Shamanic Journey: A Practical Guide to Therapeutic Shamanism, self-published under his own name. The book presents shamanic journeying as a structured practice open to readers without prior training, framing it as a way to access what the author describes as the healing dimensions of the mind through altered states of consciousness. It is written in an instructional, first-person register, addressing the reader directly and positioning the practice as accessible to anyone with an open mind rather than requiring special aptitude. As a self-published title, it circulates primarily among readers already interested in shamanic and therapeutic approaches to spirituality rather than through a wider publishing imprint. The book functions as a practical manual, guiding readers step by step rather than offering historical or comparative analysis of shamanic traditions.
