Shaman Dan

Dan is a breathwork practitioner, retreat facilitator, and long-time explorer of consciousness who brings a grounded and experiential approach to healing work. A dedicated Wim Hof Method practitioner, he has spent many years studying the connection between breath, mindset, and the body’s ability to recover and rebalance itself.

Dan’s journey into this work is deeply personal. After facing a serious illness and ongoing challenges with diabetes, he began exploring breathwork, cold exposure, and psychedelic medicines as tools for healing and transformation. These experiences became a turning point in his life, helping him develop a deeper understanding of acceptance, resilience, and the body’s capacity for recovery.

Over the years he has travelled widely, including extended time in China and other parts of the world, learning from different cultures and traditions that work with natural medicines and holistic approaches to health. Alongside this, he has gained experience supporting and helping lead retreats, offering breathwork sessions, integration support, and grounded guidance for people navigating profound inner experiences.

Dan also has a strong connection to music and the role it plays in emotional and energetic states during ceremony. His work at retreats blends breath, presence, and practical wisdom, helping participants move through challenge with courage and clarity.

For Dan, psychedelic work is not about escape but about understanding, responsibility, and healing. His presence in retreat spaces reflects a sincere commitment to helping others access the same sense of transformation and possibility that changed the course of his own life.
