Shamans work with the soul or the spirit. They mend sickness at the spirit level. They pick up information and understanding from working with the spirits of nature, for example, rocks and trees, the land, and they pick up learning from working with spirits of creatures and people, for example, their precursors. For the shaman, everything is alive and conveys data. You can call this soul, vitality, or cognizance.

Keeping in mind the end goal to speak with the soul or cognizance of these things, the shaman will move his or her own particular condition of mindfulness. Shamans can do this through different means, for example, contemplation, tedious sounds, for example, that of the drum or rattle, or through the assistance of stimulating plants. The shaman will then "see" through another arrangement of eyes, they will perceive what is new with you on an otherworldly level.
