Healing a Broken Heart the Shamanic Way
How Does a Broken Heart Occur?
From a shamanic perspective, a broken heart is more than emotional pain — it is a spiritual event. It happens at a metaphysical level when a part of the heart is lost, given away, or fractured due to intense emotional experiences. This could be the result of grief, betrayal, abandonment, heartbreak or even deep soul-bonds that were never fully resolved.
A broken heart can also occur when we, consciously or unconsciously, give a part of ourselves to someone or something outside of us.
This might happen:
- When we fall in love and never reclaim the energy we gave away
- When we offer our heart in hope of acceptance, but it is met with rejection
- When we care for others at the cost of our own soul’s needs
- When we experience deep loss and a part of us does not return
- When we pour our heart into a project, relationship, business, work
- When we experience a shattering of our dreams
Symptoms of a Broken Heart
Over time, the signs of a broken or fragmented heart may appear as emotional numbness, difficulty trusting, feeling “not all here,” or a longing for something unnamed.
Shamanic wisdom teaches us that what has been lost can be retrieved — and the heart made whole again.
What Is Heart Retrieval?
In traditional shamanic cultures, it was the role of the shaman to restore wholeness where fragmentation had occurred. When a person experienced heartbreak, trauma, or deep emotional upheaval, it was understood that a part of their life force — often anchored in the heart — could become separated from the self.
To heal the broken heart, the shaman would undertake a sacred journey beyond the veil. With the support of spirit allies and the guidance of the unseen realms, they would seek out the missing fragment of the heart and bring it home — restoring what had been lost, gently and reverently.
This sacred act is known as heart retrieval — and it is one of the most profound healing rites in the shamanic tradition.
It does not erase the past.
Instead, it reclaims the energy that was left behind, scattered in moments of deep vulnerability, grief or soul sacrifice.
When the lost piece of the heart is retrieved, integration becomes possible. Joy can return. Love can be felt again. Presence is restored.
Signs You May Need a Heart Retrieval
Heart fragmentation can manifest in subtle or striking ways. You may sense that something is missing, but cannot name it. Or you may carry a constant ache that never fully leaves. From a shamanic perspective, these may be signs that a part of your heart is calling to be brought home.
You may benefit from a heart retrieval if you:
- Feel emotionally disconnected or numb
- Struggle to trust, love or fully receive
- Revisit the past again and again, unable to let go
- Feel scattered or like you’re “not all here”
- Lost joy or passion after a significant life event
- Carry grief or heartbreak that never fully healed
- Sense a deep longing for something unnamed
- Have recurring dreams of someone or something you lost
Shamanic healing teaches us that your heart remembers what has been lost. And when the time is right, that part of you can be found, returned, and made whole again.
Retrieving a Piece of Your Own Heart
If you are ready to retrieve a piece of your heart that was lost or given away, you can undertake a shamanic healing journey to call it home. This is a sacred soul-level journey of restoration anchored in the ancient shamanic tradition of the House of the Bee® – the oldest shamanic lineage.
