Guardian of the Sámi ancestral tradition
Eirik Myrhaug Partapuoli, originally from Norway, is a Sámi healer and shaman who merges modern science with ancestral traditions.
An engineer by training, he worked for Skanska and the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE), standing out for his knowledge. In 1981, he became a key figure in the hunger strike against the Alta River project, advocating for environmental and indigenous rights.
Starting in 1992, he embraced his shamanic heritage, creating "Shamanic Healing" courses and gaining recognition as "the shaman who calmed the storm in the north." With over three decades of experience, he has healed thousands of people and trained a new generation of healers.
He combines indigenous wisdom with an analytical understanding of systems and sustainability, acting as a bridge between the ancient and the modern.
