Throughout this journey, you will receive 24 personal follow-up sessions with Pål-Esben, providing you with individual support, insight, and guidance to integrate all your learnings and experiences.

This is the ultimate journey home – for those who are ready.

The Primordial Shamanic Path to Unity and Spiritual Enlightenment

At Yggdrasil Shamanic School, I offer my students a unique path to spiritual awakening called “The Primordial Shamanic Path to Unity and Spiritual Enlightenment”. This path is deeply rooted in ancient traditions yet adapted for our modern times.

In our tradition, we do not use psychedelic substances, as the path to enlightenment doesn’t require such means. Enlightenment is achieved through inner work, dedication, and guidance, not through temporary chemical experiences. We focus on lasting transformation integrated into your daily life, rather than transient experiences.

Through a structured and profound developmental process, combined with personal guidance, I help students navigate this fascinating and transformative journey. The school is built on ancient wisdom and tradition but adapted to meet modern humans’ needs for wholeness and balance.

This path offers a deep, holistic practice that guides you back to your true nature and connects you with the universe’s rhythms and wisdom. Through this process, we seek not only to transcend the ego’s illusions but also to regain connection with nature’s power, our spiritual roots, and our innate joyful essence. This is a journey that unites the soul with the divine through practical, grounded methods and deep transformation.

The goal is not merely to learn about enlightenment but to experience and live it – as a lasting and integrated part of your daily life. In our tradition, we don’t seek to escape the material world, like fleeing from our material life or retreating to a desolate place or an ashram. Instead, it’s about living with one foot firmly anchored in our material life and one foot in our divine nature.

This balance between the earthly and the spiritual creates a life that is both meaningful and complete. Through this approach, we learn to embrace and love both sides of our existence – the practical and the transcendent – and use this union to create harmony, joy, and meaning in both our inner and outer lives. This is the core of the primordial shamanic path: living fully and wholeheartedly, anchored in both our human and divine nature.

The Core Principles

The Core of the Primordial Shamanic Path

The Yggdrasil Shamanic School and the Primordial Shamanic Path are founded on timeless wisdom and practical methods that unite the earthly and divine in a tangible way. This path provides a comprehensive framework and structure for deep personal transformation and self-realization. Through ancient wisdom and powerful tools, it guides us back to our true nature while helping us find balance between the material and spiritual realms. Here are some of the fundamental elements that form the core of the Yggdrasil Shamanic School:

The Heart

Heart-Based Shamanism – The Path of the Heart

At the core of our tradition lies the path of the heart – a deep connection to our authentic self and our divine nature. The path of the heart is not merely a metaphor; it’s a life philosophy and practice that invites us to live with openness, authenticity, and integrity. The 9 Pillars for Finding the Heart’s Path make it practical and tangible to live in harmony with the heart in daily life.

The Yggdrasil Shamanic School emphasizes the journey back to our true nature through the path of the heart. The more we heal the ego’s shadow aspects – such as hatred, jealousy, envy, and fear – the closer we come to our heart and our shamanic power. The primordial shamanic path to spiritual enlightenment and self-realization requires an active and conscious approach to the heart’s way. You gain deep insight into how to practically integrate the heart’s path into your daily life.

Healthy Rhythms

Unity with Nature’s Healthy Rhythms

The primordial shamanic path teaches us to live in harmony with nature’s cycles and rhythms, which are the very essence of balance and harmony. This involves listening to nature’s wisdom through active engagement with nature, elemental work, and deep understanding of nature’s interplay and rhythms.

Yggdrasil sjamanskole

Magic

Shamanic Magic and Powerful Tools

The path includes the use of advanced runic magic and profound shamanic rituals to activate hidden potentials, dissolve complex karmic patterns, and strengthen the connection to our spiritual core.

These tools are deeply rooted in our ancestors’ wisdom and meaningfully bring primordial power back into our modern daily lives.

Initiations

Shamanic Initiations – A Faster Path to Success


At the Yggdrasil Shamanic School, you step into an ancient power field – a living network of magic and wisdom that shamans and spiritual guides have carried through the ages. As a student, you are energetically initiated into several fundamental yet deeply transformative tools and methods – the keys to your own inner magical power.

These initiations are far more than symbolic acts. They actually open portals in your energy field, allowing you to gain immediate access to hidden dimensions – layers that could otherwise take years to master through sheer willpower and practice.

Through this process, your own magic gradually awakens – not as something learned, but as an ancient wisdom you have always carried deep in your heart.

This is a path for those who remember – and for those who yearn to remember their true nature.

Through the 7 Golden Keys, we learn the art of mastering consciousness, self-responsibility, free will, strength of character, and emotional balance. This forms the foundation for a profound primordial shamanic development process.

Yggdrasil Shamanic School - Path of the 9 Primordial Dragons

The Dragons

The 9 Primordial Dragons

At Yggdrasil Shamanic School, The 9 Primordial Dragons serve as powerful guardians and protectors of our shamanic heritage and the primordial shamanic path. These majestic beings manifest the fundamental forces of the universe and act as transformative guides on the journey toward higher consciousness.

They relate to the transcendental transition between time and space and the timeless and spaceless. Through their unique presence, The 9 Primordial Dragons assist students in transcending these boundaries, enabling them to directly experience the unity of the infinite and boundless.

The dragons’ wisdom and power provide support in overcoming deep inner challenges, dissolving complex karmic bonds, and strengthening the connection to cosmos, nature, and the student’s own soul.

Othala

The Personal Shamanic Othala

Early in the primordial shamanic development journey, students at Yggdrasil Shamanic School are energetically initiated into their own personal, shamanic astral temple – a deeply anchored energy field integrated with the soul’s inherent resources and a diversity of metaphysical forces. This temple, which we call the Personal Shamanic Othala, acts as a catalyst in the student’s spiritual growth, facilitating a faster and more profound development process.

Through their Personal Shamanic Othala, students can within mere seconds alter their state of consciousness and enter the shamanic dreamworld. Here, the door opens to direct contact with light beings, angels, power animals, and various forms of magic and energy work – all in a far simpler and more accessible way.

The Personal Shamanic Othala is unique to Yggdrasil Shamanic School – an extraordinary gift not found in any other shamanic direction, tradition, or school.

Modern + Ancient = Holistic Transformation

When we unite modern science with ancient wisdom in our teaching, we open the door to a new and deeper understanding: Even the most mystical and spiritual shamanic insights become tangible, accessible, and meaningful – for all who seek.

2 Worlds

The Best of 2 Worlds

We combine the best of 2 unique worlds to achieve rapid, objectively measurable results.

Modern Science
Here, we integrate the analytical, critical, and pragmatic approach from academia – focusing on concrete and verifiable outcomes. Through the application of the latest insights in functional medicine, chronomedicine, and neuro-behavioral psychology, we support both body and mind in a scientifically grounded and effective manner.

Ancient Wisdom
Here, we access the shaman’s profound insight and unique connection to universal forces – powers that most in our modern society have lost touch with. Through powerful and time-tested shamanic methods, we often achieve immediate and transformative effects in people’s lives.

Modern + Ancient = Holistic Transformation
When we unite modern science with ancient wisdom in our teaching, we open the door to a new and deeper understanding: Even the most mystical and spiritual shamanic insights become tangible, accessible, and meaningful – for all who seek.

Results

Objective Measurable Results in Your Daily Life

There’s a fundamental difference between theoretical knowledge and practical experience. Information alone has limited power – unless it awakens something essential within you, touches you deeply, and allows your life to unfold in new and more meaningful ways.

At Yggdrasil Shamanic School, it’s not just about acquiring knowledge – but living what you learn. Here, the journey focuses on creating real, measurable changes in your daily life. Not necessarily as dramatic events, but as subtle shifts, authentic transformation, and moments where you feel: This is different. This is real.

Step by step, you’ll discover how life gradually falls into place, in harmony with your heart’s deepest longings – as if you’re slowly but surely returning home to your authentic self, and to the life you’ve always known was possible.

Spirituell Opplysthet og din første fødsel: Det opprinnelige rene sinnet

Safe Space

A Safe and Secure Space

Since I began teaching in Norway in 2004, creating an environment where every student feels safe, supported, and fully included has been my heartfelt mission. In our community, you’re embraced by a warm and supportive atmosphere – where both beginners and advanced practitioners are met with deep respect, genuine openness, and authentic human connection.

In our unique learning environment, there’s no place for bullying, exclusion, gossip, or unhealthy competition. Here, we lift each other up, and each individual is free to flourish as their authentic self – without fear of rejection or judgment. At our core, we prioritize heart-centered growth, creating fertile ground for personal development, inner transformation, and a profound sense of belonging.

Transformation

The Second Birth

An essential part of this journey is the shamanic death – a profound inner metamorphosis where the ego’s grip loosens, and we experience our “second birth.”

Through this deep-reaching process, we liberate ourselves from lifelong patterns, existential fears, karmic bonds, and illusory beliefs that have held us captive, rediscovering our original, true essence.

Path to Unity

Complete Liberation through Spiritual Enlightenment – The Journey Home to Oneness

For those who are ready, this represents the ultimate goal on the Primordial Shamanic Path: A total liberation from all limitations that bind consciousness to time, space, and illusion. Here, the portal to the boundless opens – to a living experience of unity, where you no longer perceive yourself as separate from the Divine Source.

In this profound awakening, you understand the essence of true freedom: A state free from fear, resistance, and inner division. You rest in an unshakeable trust, recognizing in your heart that the material world was never something to fear. This deep, peaceful knowing not only transforms your inner landscape – it revolutionizes your entire experience of life.

This is not just a journey. It is a homecoming to your true self.

The Ultimate Goal

The Ultimate Goal of the Primordial Shamanic Path

The Primordial Shamanic Path is more than just a spiritual practice – it is a transformative way of life that can guide you toward your deepest truth, complete freedom, and a lasting state of enlightenment if you are ready for it. The goal is to experience a profound unity with all that is, liberate yourself from life’s suffering and fear, and step into an existence filled with deep joy, unconditional love, meaningful direction, and crystal-clear insight. This is a journey back to the timeless and boundless, where we merge with our original divine nature.

To understand this journey, we can use a powerful metaphor: Our material reality can be compared to a single grain of sand – a limited part of what we experience and identify with. This grain of sand represents our experience of time, space, karma, intellect, and ego, which restricts us to a narrow perspective on life and existence.

But our true nature is like the Sahara desert – infinite, boundless, and filled with freedom. Most people live their entire lives without realizing they are more than the grain of sand. Through the primordial shamanic development process, we gradually learn to recognize our Sahara – our complete nature – and transcend the limitations that the grain of sand represents.

When we connect with this Sahara within ourselves, our perspective on life transforms completely. The experience of suffering, fear, and meaninglessness melts away like dew in the sunlight, and we begin to see the world through the eyes of love and unity. In this state, we become capable of living with perfect balance and harmony between the material world and the timeless, spaceless existence that is our essence. It is here that we experience the complete liberation that guides us toward a self-realized life.

Can I Become Spiritually Enlightened?

While Spiritual enlightenment might seem like an unattainable goal reserved for the specially chosen, it is accessible to anyone willing to engage in developing their consciousness.

Ultimately, Spiritual enlightenment is the process of reclaiming our complete consciousness and using it to perceive the world as it truly is.

In a world dominated by distractions, suffering, fear, limitations, and illusions, this is more important than ever. It allows us to break free from the constraints of our senses and ego, see the ultimate truth, and live a life filled with clarity, purpose, meaning, and fulfillment.

How Long Does It Take?

The journey toward spiritual enlightenment is as unique as the person walking it. There is no universal timeframe, as the path depends on where you begin, your dedication, the challenges you encounter, and how receptive you are to transformation and change.

For some, insight and awakening can happen quickly, like a sudden breakthrough. Many of my students experience their first deep realizations of Oneness within six months on this path. For others, it’s a gradual process requiring years of continuous self-examination, practice, and guidance. What matters most is not how quickly you reach the goal, but that you’re moving in the right direction, one step at a time.

Spiritual enlightenment is about lasting transformation, and this depth cannot be rushed. With the right guide, patience, and authenticity to the process, the journey will lead you where you’re meant to be, at your own perfect pace.

Your Most Important Priority?

The path to Spiritual enlightenment should be a person’s most important life priority because it offers the opportunity to see beyond the illusions of the physical world and experience the ultimate truth.

By expanding your consciousness and breaking through the layers of perception that distort reality, you can live a life filled with clarity, peace, and deeper understanding.

The journey to enlightenment can be challenging and requires a suitable guide or mentor, but it is the most rewarding journey you can embark upon, as it leads to the realization of existence’s true nature.

Results

Results Are What Matter

Whether you’re seeking a way out of burnout or health challenges, wanting to strengthen a demanding relationship, yearning for deeper meaning and self-awareness, wishing to develop your spiritual abilities – or walking the path toward complete enlightenment – one thing is crucial:
That the methods you learn actually work. That you experience concrete, positive changes in your life.

AN AMAZING JOURNEY

Several years ago, I was burnt out and broken, worn thin to the point of being unrecognizable to myself and those I love. I was searching for help, and fortunately for me, I found you, Pål-Esben. And with that began an amazing journey, a journey that has brought me to a life I truly love and one that, hand on heart, I would never have been able to create without your help. Of that I am certain.Ylva Linnestad

From Darkness and Isolation to Joy, Freedom, and a Deep Connection with Nature

When Cathrine Emilie Kronen began her education at Yggdrasil Shamanic School, she was seriously ill. She suffered from treatment-resistant depression, slept 20 hours a day, and had severe social anxiety – so intense that she didn’t even dare to collect her mail for fear of meeting her neighbor. The future seemed dark and hope was almost gone.

But then she began her journey with Pål-Esben – a journey that literally transformed her life.

With small, confident steps and powerful tools, she began rediscovering nature’s healing wisdom, learning self-regulation, and developing the ability to meet life with awareness and choice. From barely daring to step outside her door, she progressed to sleeping alone in nature – in complete safety and trust. Today, Cathrine Emilie works part-time, gives lectures about her journey, and experiences joy, mastery, and a renewed sense of purpose.

In this inspiring interview, she openly shares about:

  • How nature and the teachings helped her overcome depression and anxiety
  • The insights that proved crucial – like the ability to make conscious choices and take responsibility for her life
  • How old patterns like overeating were replaced with new, healthy ways of facing challenges
  • The profound power of shamanic tools including runes, the 9 pillars of the heart’s path, and connection with nature’s cycles
  • The importance of online teaching combined with practical exercises in nature
  • And how Pål-Esben’s teaching style, warmth, and integrity created a safe space for transformation

Cathrine Emilie’s story is living proof that there is a way back – even from deep suffering. With the right support, tools, and an inner willingness to grow, we can not only heal – we can flourish.
