I just recieved a new client coming out of this group in Glastonbury Connecticut. She been pretty emotionally raked over the coals and betrayed. Some crazy stuff. More research needed to confirm... The group is called the "Naughty Shaman" which I find a bit disturbing.

She was an assistant teacher at The Four Winds Society https://thefourwinds.com/. This is Alberto Villoldo's group.
... there's a number of reasons why Villoldo is clearly a fraud, one of the worser ones in my opinion because of the amount of damage he's done. He's an exploiter in academia, along the lines of Castaneda, Harner, Martin Prechtel, and Mehl Madrona, which means that he knows better and just doesn't care, and also that he tries to use his academic credentials to promote the acceptance of this kind of exploitation.
Like Harner, he's one of the so called core shamanism people. There are a number of threads in here on the topic that I'd urge you to look at.
Yet at the same time he claims to have been trained by alleged (and always unnamed) elders in Qero Peru. Qero is the Sedona of Latin America, a mecca for Nuage falsehoods, dubious claims, silliness, and wishful thinking. Anything or anyone claiming to come from either place should be taken with a whole plateload of salt.
LIke Castaneda, most of what Villoldo passes off as Native is actually from Asian traditions, Hinduism, Buddhism, or Taoism. Both men count on their victims being ignorant of not only NDN beliefs, but Asian ones too. The next post will go into that fraud's site in detail.
