| Sumario: | This study aims to investigate the understanding that naturologists trained in the University of Southern Santa Catarina have about the term “shamanism”, systematizing the main categories of the shamanic medicine of naturology and analyzing whether other knowledge would be incorporated into this form of shamanic medicine. The research subjects were only people graduated from the University of Southern Santa Catarina. The clipping is justified because although naturology is a phenomenon of European origin, only at the University of Southern Santa Catarina shamanic medicine is part of the training in naturology. The study uses a qualitative approach, and the survey method was the interview. Four guiding ideas were identified for what naturologists call “shamanic medicine” – (1) healing; (2) four elements (Fire-Earth-Water-Air); (3) subtle energies; and (4) cakras – in addition to five practices that were cited more frequently – (1) medical wheel; (2) color medicine; (3) number medicine; (4) animal medicine; and (5) crystal therapy. Regarding these practices, it was noted that almost all of them do not have indigenous origin, but a strong influence coming from European esotericism and the New Age ethos. The resignification of shamanism by naturology occurred in a double relationship between a search for valorization of the main ideas of the first historical phase of Brazilian naturology and the guidelines created in the second phase, that naturology should be based on traditional medicines. We have, therefore, the creation of a tradition, in which the practices dear to the first historical phase of Brazilian naturology take on a new form as “traditional shamanic medicine”, so that it could continue to be taught to students of naturology |
