As a TV/Radio talk show host, I have to read a lot of books. Itzhak Beery's, The Gift of Shamanism was that rare thing in my experience, a book that hooked me from the start and kept me glued throughout, taught me much that I did not know, and inspired me to not only want a private session with Itzhak, but also to learn more about my own shamanic gifts." |

“Can dreams reveal future events? Can we prove that we have had past lives? Are spirit animals hovering to help us? Beery tells stories from his own shamanic experiences to invite readers into the mysterious world where spirit realms intersect with everyday life. As a self-described "atheist Jew who grew up in a communist kibbutz," he seems continually astounded by his own visionary and healing abilities. His questioning attitude make spirit helpers and flying through the air seem possible and maybe even likely. The book features cheerful, straightforward prose; a demeanor alternately awestruck and humorous; and simple, almost childlike vision paintings. A former ad man, Beery in his shamanic role rubs shoulders with businesspeople and celebrities as well as New Agers, and his open invitation to "unleash your inner modern-day shamanic powers, to ignite your natural intuition, and to become a shamanic warrior, one that learns to face your innermost fears and to act decisively to achieve your goals and dreams despite them" may appeal to a wider audience than more esoteric books in this genre.

"A talented story teller, Beery engages the reader from the very first page. This mixture of biography and teaching helps communicate the worldview of traditions shamans. It is a fascinating tale beginning with Beery as an atheist and sceptic through his experiences with the unseen and advancing spiritual maturity leading to his role as a teacher and healer. Beery communicates well and reminds us of the urgent need to rediscover ourselves in a world lost to materialism and consumerism." "Itzhak Beery is a naturally gifted storyteller, journeying through the hidden realms, returning with gems of wisdom and wonder. Beery brings alive in vivid colors the world of the shaman, and in walking this journey with him, we discover that healing and visionary powers are a gift that anyone can access. By revealing his compelling transformation from skeptic to respected shamanic healer, we too become believers in the universal power of the heart." |

“The Gift of Shamanism is a superb exploration of the altered states of consciousness implicit to shamanism. Beery describes his encounters with the spirit world and its transcendental energies in beautiful and moving detail....By adding this personal touch, Beery has avoided producing just another guidebook to shamanism, and instead created a companion to the shamanic journey. |
