New Shaman Directory, We’re Working Hard
Shaman Links has begun working on a new Shaman Healers and Shamanic Teachers directory. The directory will allow people to log in and edit their own listings, add a photo, and additional information. It will allow visitors to search for shamans by location, and will show the results on Google Maps.
We’ve been working on this for a month now, and we are expecting a couple more months before we fully roll out the new directories. We have divided the site into regional sections, to make it easier for visitors to search by location. We expect to roll out smaller ones first, Canada or Australia. Regions with more listings such as the United States may take a while longer.
If you already have a listing on Shaman Links there will be a way to “Claim Your Listing” so that you can add details and a photo. We hope that the new directory will make it much easier for clients to find you on the web and for our visitors to Find Their Shaman!
Working on the new directory has slowed down processing new applications, so we appreciate your patience.

This is very exciting! Will you also have a space to list free community events? I have a free online workshop for shamans and healers I’d love to list (how to run your own webinars and online classes). Would love to make it accessible to practitioners on this forum.
Unfortunately, as a free website, with a volunteer staff, we won’t be adding community events to Shaman Links. As it is, we are often behind processing applications to be listed on our Shaman Healer Directory. The new directory will automate the listing process.
Based on the progress so far, we won’t be launching the new directory until 2017 at the earliest. We did successfully move Shaman Links to a new website host, which was necessary for the new directory to work well… so we are working on it!
If you want to list your events somewhere, ShamanPortal.org has that service, although you might want to find a website that lists a variety of events so you can attract people from many backgrounds. Often a local publication, such as one for yoga, acupuncture, metaphysical, or holistic healing is a great place to list events. Sometimes even a local paper, or library newsletter, if is well established with listing community events will work well too.
