what experts are saying

about our teaching methods

“The big answer to our health-care problems in the 21st Century…”

Joe Dispenza DC, International Researcher and Lecturer

“A paradigm shattering synthesis of wisdom traditions and modern science…”

Bruce Lipton PhD, Developmental Biologist

“The shaman and physician for millennia were the same person until the 19th century when they were split apart in the name of science. Now through the lens of 21st Century science, Villoldo and Perlmutter bring them back together.”

Mark Hyman MD, Physician and New York Times best-selling author

“It shatters common misconceptions about us, our relationship to our body and the world. In doing so he reminds us that the key to our healing lies in our ability to embrace ourselves, and the world, as living, conscious and connected.”

Gregg Braden DC, International Scientist & Educator, New York Times best-selling author

A message from the founder, Dr. Alberto Villoldo

The truth is, I was at the peak of my career when I was stopped in my tracks. My heart and liver were near collapse. I went into a state of despair. I realized that if I wanted to live, I had to approach healing differently so I turned to the wisdom I learned from the shamans about Energy Medicine.

Through my own struggle and a successful journey back to health, I realized that what I have learnt in my own life story, must be shared with the rest of the world. The methods I teach in our Energy Medicine program are the same ones I used to grow a new liver, brain, and heart, and bring myself back from the edge of death.

Testimonials

What People are Saying

“The best decision of my life”

“Embarking on the Energy Medicine study at FourWinds was the best decision of my life, bringing about a transformation I could never have imagined. Discovering my ability to heal, assisting people from all walks of life, including those with depression and even helping children and babies, has opened a new world of possibilities for me. The depth of knowledge and the community I’ve found here, along with the incredible support from teachers, have made this journey not just educational but truly life-enriching. I’m now pursuing the two-year Master’s program, a testament to the profound impact this training has had on my life.”

Claudia Kamrat, Germany

“Felt like coming home to me”

“Participating in Alberto Villoldo’s Energy Medicine and Health Coach program felt like coming home to me, rediscovering deep wisdom that now enriches my practice as a physiotherapist daily. Integrating conventional medicine with energy healing has shown me the sustainable power of holistic healing. This journey allowed me to explore my inner self, recognize my potential, and bring my light to the world, a truly invaluable gift from my training.”

Michaela Winkelbauer, Germany

“It feels like the whole package”

“This program was the perfect complement to my profession as a somatic arts psychotherapist. It blends embodiment and therapeutic practices with the element of the communion with spirit and pacha mama. It feels like the whole package. If you’re ready to shift something or step into something, this training pushes you to overcome that in a beautiful and transformative way.”

Maria, Brooklyn

“An incredible enrichment for yourself and those around you”

“Stumbling upon Alberto’s ‘Healing the Dark Side’ course opened a new path for me, leading to my enrollment in the Energy Medicine and Health Coach program in 2020. Selling my motorcycle to fund this journey, I embarked on a transformative six-month online training that not only advanced me personally and psychologically but also revolutionized my physical health through the detox program, altering my dietary habits. My advice: if you feel the call, embrace this course. It’s an incredible enrichment for yourself and those around you. Truly life-changing.”

Karl Heinz, Germany

“it fosters health and healing rather than focusing on diagnoses”

“I was initially inspired by hearing Alberto tell a story of having an experience that made him view the world differently. As a scientist I love the fact that Alberto is extremely knowledgeable in the Shamanic arts, but he’s also very knowledgeable in neuroscience and biology and he integrates the sciences very well. What’s incredible about this approach to the human experience is that it fosters health and healing rather than focusing on diagnoses. It brings all the levels together, including spiritual, energetic, and psychological. The training was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. It goes deep into the essence of who you are.”

Andrea, Columbia

“This training is a life-changer”

“This training is a life-changer. You get to learn a lot about Energy Medicine and the depth of wisdom on the course as well as the amount of content and videos is quite remarkable. You get to speak to Alberto Villoldo, who is a life-changer as well. His books speak to my heart and impacted my spiritual journey so powerfully. Alberto is part of the course as well as the Four Winds teachers, who take you through every step. I’ve grown as a soul and as a person. I’ve understood myself better and become a more intuitive healer. If you have a calling to do this course, then do it. It’s the best investment I’ve ever made in my life.””

Peter, England

“Breakthroughs are happening now!”

“Breakthroughs are happening now! Coming to terms with how I eat, sleep, work, and relate with others! How I’ve inherited a tragic sense of life from my culture, family, and religious upbringing. How resentful and angry I am. How this is what I agreed to at a very young age, leaves me speechless. Having the tools to change the programming is amazing!”

 

“helped me realize that there are many more solutions than I could have ever imagined”

“The Four Winds program has given me this incredible sense of experiencing infinite possibility I had not fathomed before. As a naturopathic doctor, I am always looking for solutions to assist people on their journey, with their health and their wellness. The program helped me realize that there are many more solutions than I could have ever imagined.”
