How I Changed My Life! A Journey From Engineering to Shamanism By Author Trevor Cowan

Cover Blurb

How I Changed My Life! charts Trevor’s spiritual journey unfolding as he searched for answers to his deepest questions. This is a memoir, of sorts, from childhood, through education, on to a career in engineering, before consciously stepping onto his path and being drawn to shamanism.

Shamanism is one of the oldest healing modalities on Earth, stemming from indigenous ways of living in harmony and balance with nature, based upon the inherent human connection to all life on this planet. Trevor’s journey from engineering to shamanism was dotted with signs and synchronicities, tragedy and joy, profound encounters and experiences, and an underlying curiosity to discover what it is that lies beyond our conscious selves. This has been the journey of a lifetime…

Author Bio

Following university and several years travelling, Trevor’s twenty-five-year career in engineering and project management took him across the globe, working for a number of years in Hong Kong, Mexico and Brazil, before returning to the UK. However, like most on a spiritual path, Trevor knew there was something more he needed to be doing, especially as his health began to suffer. Digestive problems, coupled with acute tinnitus, eventually forced Trevor to leave work and seek his own healing path, as the mainstream healthcare offered was ineffective for him.

For over twenty years Trevor has been working consciously on himself, beginning with yoga and meditation, followed by forays into various other esoteric areas and practices, before coming to shamanism and nature-based spirituality. This, Trevor knew, was his calling, and led to him completing a two-year training course on the medicine wheel and qualifying as a contemporary shamanic practitioner.

Throughout this journey, Trevor filled many journals and knew he should share some of the profound insights he was privileged to have been given. From these writings, his book, Change Your Life! was born. Trevor is now based near the lovely town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea, in North East England, where he works with individuals and groups offering ceremonies and workshops, alongside private sessions for spiritual connection, personal development, healing and growth.

He has recently published his second book - How I Changed My Life!
