“I felt a strong resonance with the material that he offered and with the way Simon embodied what he taught. He approached the whole process with a lot of integrity and transparency, always honoring our sovereignty and safety as practitioners.
The shamanic journeys that he led, allowed me to connect deeply with parts of myself that I couldn’t reach otherwise through other practices. It helped me to release many frozen feelings, which had a transformation effect on my health.
I have been struggling with skin issues for years, and I wanted to find underlying causes behind them. The immersion in the shamanic journeys with Simon’s guidance allowed me to re-visit difficult events of my past and recall my energy from unhealthy relationships back to me. One month after the course, I am enjoying my healthy skin again, free from inflammations.
I also continue to work with the Soul Bath practice. I really appreciate it’s simplicity, which, at the same time, facilitates for me deep connection to the natural forces and my innermost being.
I’m incredibly grateful for having answered the call to work with Simon and I hope to experience more formats in the future to bring more understanding of the tools and practices that Simon generously offers.”
A Fresh Perspective in Men’s Work.
Men are no longer necessarily looking for therapies or spiritual paths—they don't need further analysis, more theory, or further transcendence, because they are looking for profound methods that can concretely change their lives.
Not only do they no longer want to talk about the problems of being a man, they want to go all the way and truly rediscover their original strength.
This Training Program Empowers You To Do Just That
Festival workshops where men seeking depth can find you
Energetically palpable core shamanic initiations that can be life-changing
Powerful men's groups that build deep connections with each other
Teaching daily practices that build increasingly harmonious, masculine strengths energetically
Offering men a new perspective based on the supportive energetic fields of the four elements: earth, fire, air, and water
A truly game changing departure from conflict-laden, hierarchy-based archetypes, such as the tyrant and the warrior
A paradigm shift towards harmonious, powerful, supportive masculinity, not only through new and ancient knowledge, but through energetic initiations that can be felt
Private or group coaching sessions of shamanic clarification, healing, and resolution of energetic entanglements
A newly developed method from ancient, rediscovered knowledge, with a profound paradigm shift into the simple, primal masculine qualities and strengths of inner calm and power.
Andreas Nater
“Simon, hearing your voice and feeling your excitement, it’s clear that something deep within you has come alive. There’s a light in your words…It feels like you’ve found that sacred space, the meeting point between heart and mind, spirit and body.
I truly do not believe I would be where I am right now, if you had not come into my life. What happened was nothing short of a miracle… a gift I never imagined I would receive… Your compassion has brought me peace in a way I can’t fully describe. I feel both the weight of memory and the comfort of closure. It is a tender time, and yet, through your help, it has also become a moment of quiet healing…
Your energy feels tangible, a real reflection of something divine moving through human form. And I’m so grateful to be part of this journey with you and your partner, to witness this unfolding, this grounded magic.”
What if…
You could energetically dissolve old emotional blockages in yourself and in the men you accompany on their journey?
And you could help these men step into their own strength?
To then also facilitate authentic, energetically experienceable initiations, based on ancient shamanic techniques, guiding them into an entirely new phase of their lives?
"What I've learned on my own healing journey and through observing others is that many approaches start at the mental level…
…or attempt to bring about transcendental calming through breath or meditation.
This is all very helpful, of course, but in my experience, the real dissolution of the root causes behind various symptoms happens on the energetic level.
I'm continually amazed at how intense even physical pain can dissolve within days when you find and release the energetic root cause. This applies to psychological and emotional states as well.
For this, the shamanic perspective gives us a view into the unconscious, into the compressed layers of old emotions, that we continue to carry within us. Sometimes we have inherited these energies and emotions and they too can be dissolved.
Uncovering, clarifying, and healing these can often catapult us out of seemingly incurable symptoms and unsolvable behavioral patterns or life situations.
Another key that I have discovered is that it doesn't only depend on us as practitioners or coaches, but also on the daily practice of the client or workshop participant, after the healing or clearing. The Soul Bath™ practice, that can be shared with clients, is what distinguishes this new path from other self-development and healing methods. The one who is being coached and experiences healing is initiated into self-empowerment."
-Simon Sanud
With this system, you can teach men to achieve self-empowerment.
Learn to fundamentally heal men's lives—with the only method combining shamanic men's initiations, Soul Bath™ practice, and men's facilitation. Dissolve triggers at the energetic root. Help them transform energetic blockages, release emotional baggage, activate unshakeable inner strength, and discover ancestral power through deep energetic initiation!
Thomas Engel
“Empathetic, authentic, attentive, trustworthy, full of dedication—this is how I experienced Simon during my shamanic journeys. He brings shamanism to life with his own Soul Bath technique.
I was able to experience my own male initiation. This allowed me to reconnect fully with my masculine power. I feel powerful, courageous, and have more clarity! In personal exchanges, Simon is always very attentive and open. Thanks to the audio files of my own shamanic journeys that were made available to me, I have the opportunity to strengthen and consolidate this connection at any time.
I am very glad and happy to have met Simon and can only recommend every MAN to have this experience for himself with Simon's special guidance!”

Benefits of Integral Initiations & Practice
Meet Simon
simon sanud
Author of ‘The Peaceful Power of the Initiated Man’
Simon's three decades of intensive spiritual practice—including Siddha Yoga, Tantra Yoga, and more than 500 shamanic drumming journeys—have cultivated profound mastery in facilitating energetic healing and initiation for men.
He has received hundreds of darshan initiations on the siddha path, dozens of energetic initiations in tantric experiences and shamanic journeys, and continues to be initiated by trusted spirit world collaborators, including the being of the earth and the being of the sun. Through his spirit world shamanic journeys, he has received initiations from collective energetic healing fields of the ancestors, mother soul, father soul, spirit of the earth, spirit of the sun, energetic disentanglements, and the powers of the four elements.
Distilling his acquired knowledge, Simon has created the Integral Men's Initiation Path™ and the daily Soul Bath™ practice, which form the foundation of this practitioner training.
He now facilitates these initiations in group shamanic journeys, private sessions, and teachings—and trains practitioners to carry this work forward. He doesn't just teach methods—he initiates practitioners into their own power, guiding them through their personal healing journey while developing their skills and energetic capacity to facilitate this transformative work for other men.
He has written a book about men's initiation that helps men gain new perspective on harmonious masculine qualities and advance in their self-development.
Massimo Montana
“I attended the Men's Initiation and have such a vivid and powerful memory of the shamanic journey we undertook, that during the session I truly felt I was in another dimension. This and the practices to follow, that Simon teaches, have emphasized in me a self-awareness and non-judgmental attitude, radically transforming me.”
Massimo received the men’s initiation online - proof that online shamanic work happens on an energetic level and creates lasting change!
A Few Words About the Program
Phillip Bauchrowitz
“The world needs men who have the courage to discover their spiritual selves—and for me, Simon Sanud is the best companion on this journey. In his workshop “Men's Initiation,” I learned to live my masculine energies more consciously—strong and gentle at the same time, during the storm and in calmer times. It is a workshop about breaking the inner knot. Healing the inner child and setting out on the path to healing your deeper soul parts.
His well-guided shamanic journeys (without any substances) and the Soul Bath practice helped me to finally organize my energies, deal better with triggers, and reconnect more deeply with Mother Earth.
Since Simon's workshops, I feel more grounded, clearer, and more alive—in my everyday life as well as in my relationship.”
Praise from Respected Practitioners after Workshops & Private Sessions with Simon
-
“Simon’s integrity and insight bear the hallmark of the mystic who has truly done his own inner work. It is rare to encounter a man in the healing arts who holds such a powerful balance of emotional maturity and fluency with the symbolic, mystical material of the unconscious. Simon’s presence is grounded and reassuring. He is an excellent practitioner who I endorse whole-heartedly.”
Louisa Elena Kolker, MA LPCC, Ethical Mysticism | Spiritual Mentorship | Embodied Psychotherapy
-
“i must say that the little innocent workshop i have done with Simon really changed my life. Simon is super humble and a very knowledgeable teacher, with a lot of life experience. He has very good skills to guide men and women to their full potential and bring more abundance to relationships. i'm really recommending working with him."
Roni Averashi, Trauma Informed Somatic Practitioner
-
“I am Eva, a psychologist and I worked for some time as a couples therapist. I want to share that I was very pleasantly surprised by the approach that Simon offers with a holistic vision of relationships, as well as the dynamics, exercises and guided meditations that he proposes in his workshops and sessions, which not only facilitate the deepening of the couple's relationship but also as a tool for development and growth at a personal level in a very practical and healing way.”
Eva Sanchez, Psychologist & Couple Therapist
-
“Simon has an exquisitely attentive and grounded way to hold space, either in active listening , journeying with a drum or walking in nature. His gift is beyond that of a coach or therapist, it’s coming from a place of deep spiritual practice, service and spot on intuition. I am so grateful to have benefited from his experience, guidance and wisdom.”
David Taurel, Tantra Practitioner & Shamanic Yoga Teacher
Björn Fosnell
“I have been working with Simon for a couple of years now, and I can say that his guidance and healing have been life-changing. After my shamanic healing journeys with him I’m always feeling more energized and stronger. Simon has helped me release old blockages that were holding me back.
He is an incredibly skilled and intuitive healer, with a powerful presence that creates a safe space for deep healing to take place. The results I've experienced have only deepened over time, and I believe this ongoing journey is key to achieving true healing.
I’m grateful for Simon's support and expertise and highly recommend his services.”

The Origin of Soul Bath™
Soul Bath is a shamanically-inspired self-healing practice, developed by simon sanud, that your clients can use in their everyday life. Rather than having a single healing or clearing experience with you and then falling back in to their previous day to day challenges, you can invite them to tune into the help of the earth, sun, source and healing fields you have initiated them into. The participants in your workshops learn from you how they can release old layers of pain from their energy system, heal and integrate frozen soul parts, and find their way back to their own inner strength.
In effect you offer them a unique way, a new path, which is helping them empower themselves and hopefully tell others about the miracles of your teachings, healings and workshops.
Soul Bath™ combines:
Yogic meditation for awareness and clarity
Tantric energy work for conscious channeling of life energy
Core shamanism (Michael Harner, Paul Francis) for genuine transformation
And you can teach it to anyone – even without prior experience.
Sacred Container & Mutual Agreement
Simon’s New Approach to Sacred Men's Work
This training program operates as a private gathering of men, choosing to walk a transformational path together. When you join, you're entering a sacred tribe of men based on mutual respect, shared purpose, and authentic connection.
What This Means:
Equal Partnership - We meet as men supporting men, not as client and service provider;
Private Community - This is an intimate circle, with men working together privately on a profound basis of group dynamics and a deep man to man connection;
Mutual Choice - We all choose to embark on this sacred journey together;
Sacred Exchange - Your value investment is a compensation between you and Simon Sanud as the founder of this path as private men that honors the time, wisdom, techniques and energy shared;
Sovereign Space - We create a container where each man's autonomy is respected; each man retains his sovereignty and the self-responsibility for his emotional, spiritual, psychological well being, as an adult, who vouches for his ability to take part in deep internal inquiry and healing;
The Soulrise Community Framework
By participating, you become part of the free private soulrise membership club - dedicated to authentic masculine development through ancient wisdom and modern techniques based on core-shamanism, tantric energy work and regular meditation;
In this private membership the exchange and communion isn't a commercial business transaction; it's a coming together in sacred agreement, an ancient sacred communion of men in the private realm who recognize the value of walking this path together; simon sanud is not employed by engaging in this shared human experience; he is a living man sharing his knowledge and practical techniques from the authority of his own research and experience;
Simon Sanud
“We meet as equals in our circle. I merely bring this particular gift, of a ready made, initiating, energetic field based on 30 years of regular practice, plus my deep connection to trusted power animals in the spirit world with me. Through this, you can access depths of initiation and healing, you might not have reached on your own. There ios no need to take on a new belief system. Through your own real energetic experiences and growth process you can adjust your cosmology at will. There is no consensus of a common world view needed for this work. It’s not about having to believe, but all about results each of us can feel and know with certainty.”
Can Real Shamanic Transformation Happen Online?
Most men wonder if deep healing work can truly happen through a screen. Here's what we've discovered after facilitating online shamanic journeys:
Shamanic journeys are internal experiences connecting you to spiritual realms that exist beyond physical location. Many participants report their online initiations are actually deeper because they feel safer and more comfortable in their own space.
The 20-minute daily practice changes everything. While other weekend programs leave you inspired but struggling to integrate, Soul Bath gives you a proven daily practice that continues the transformation long after we finish online.
Superior audio quality delivers crystal clear guidance for shamanic journeys - often clearer than physical retreat spaces.
If this sounds like what you've been looking for as something you can offer other men - real transformation that works from anywhere - you're looking at the right place, right now.
THE BREAKTHROUGH:
Why the Combination of Initiations & Soul Bath Works
Online Experience + Ongoing Daily Practice = Lasting Transformation
The Real Problem: You've given weekend workshops that inspired your participants, but you found out later that their transformation faded within weeks. This isn't about peak experiences, (although they are a part of it) - it's about the integration practice you offer them from then onwards! From in person-workshops to online integration calls and techniques your clients can continue profiting from, generating long term positive changes.
Deep Initiations - working at an energetic level, connecting with strengthening and healing energetic fields
Immediate Application - Practice Soul Bath with your participants to solidify the connection to these powerful healing fields
Offer Guided Audio Practices - So your clients can continue on their own and reap the rewards of their 20 minute daily practice
Integration Calls - Offer integration group calls in which your clients share with each other, get to ask you questions and stay involved in their process
Frequently Asked Questions
“Do I or my clients need previous experience in meditation or shamanism?”
“No. Soul Bath is accessible to everyone – even if you or your clients or workshop participants have never meditated or worked with shamanism before.”
"How long are the online sessions in the training program?"
"Each session is 2.5 hours maximum - the optimal length for sustained attention and deep work. We've tested this and found it's the sweet spot for this particular online transformation work."
"Can shamanic work really be effective online?"
"Absolutely. Shamanic journeys are internal, energetic experiences connecting you to spiritual realms beyond physical location. Online participants often even report deeper experiences because they feel safer in their own space, and the superior audio quality enhances the journey, if they use headphones."
“What happens if I can't make one of the sessions?”
“We strongly recommend attending live for the full energetic experience. The recordings are really meant for continued integration after the sessions. However, all online sessions are recorded and made available to you exclusively on our online platform, along with the shorter MP3s of guided meditations from the last sessions as audio downloads. Not only can you catch up flexibly, but you can also continue working with the material after the workshop and continue your self-healing."
"What exactly happens in a shamanic initiation?"
"You'll be guided into a deep meditative state using shamanic drumming, where you can connect with spiritual allies and receive healing and initiatory energy. It's safe, supported, and you remain conscious and in control of what happens throughout. In the training you also learn to journey shamanically with the drum and get to practice this in a supervised space before working with others."
“What distinguishes Soul Bath™ from other methods such as coaching or mindfulness?”
Soul Bath™ is a daily, energetic practice that works beyond the mind effecting more lasting change and healing on an energetic level. It combines deep spiritual work with concrete everyday application. It's a simple 20-minute morning practice using the techniques you learn in the weekend. You'll have recordings to guide you from day 1 onwards, and it's designed to fit into any schedule."
