About Steve
Steve J. Wagner is the founder of Integrated Shaman and the creator of Structural Consciousness Integration SCI, an advanced trauma-informed energetic treatment protocol developed to address the fragmentation, dissociation, and identity collapse of consciousness historically referred to in shamanic traditions as soul loss. His work emerges from over two decades of direct experience in shamanic threshold practice, energy medicine, metaphysical inquiry, and the ongoing examination and dismantling of modern spiritual fallacies.
Steve’s professional background is built on a foundation of private education and dual business degrees from the University of Central Arkansas. A pivotal period of study in World Religions at the UCA Honors College renewed his exploration of ancestral roots and led to formal apprenticeship training in shamanic traditions. During this time, he served as Fireman and Keeper of the Fire for Lakota inipi ceremonies and vision quests, experiences that grounded his understanding of initiation, transformation, and reintegration as lived processes rather than symbolic abstractions.
A seasoned shaman, ordained minister, certified energy medicine practitioner, Reiki Master, paranormal investigator, and author, Steve has dedicated his life to spiritual exploration, teaching, and functional healing. His energy medicine practice weaves together indigenous wisdom, intuitive insight, and scientific interest, integrating traditional techniques with contemporary tools to support embodied restoration.
In 2015, he established the Journey Circle and Earth Medicine Chakra Workshops at the Academy of Holistic Arts in Little Rock, and in 2020, he formally introduced SCI. While rooted in traditional Soul Retrieval, SCI reflects a refined understanding of how consciousness fragments under trauma, religious rupture, and life-altering thresholds, allowing for reintegration without reliance on symbolic performance or spiritual bypassing.
Steve’s broader experience includes certifications in hypnotherapy, personal training, and past-life regression, as well as two near-death events that profoundly shaped his understanding of consciousness under extreme conditions. His investigative work in paranormal research, along with television appearances on platforms such as Paraflixx and Amazon Prime (The Others' Side), reflects a commitment to examining anomalous phenomena with discernment rather than spectacle.
As an author, Steve's work mirrors the same evolutionary arc found in his practice. Early books such as SIMPATICO, SIMPATICO's Essential Supplement, and The Major Arcana engage spiritual development and systems. His metaphysical fiction, Celestial Currents: The Unscripted Soul explores incarnnation into this reality and the breakdown of divine planning. His popular article Practical Ways To Be More Spiritual offers accessible insights to make daily activities profound spiritual events.
His most recent writings represent a pivot into critical examination and metaphysical deconstruction. Essays and blog posts, including The Dark Side of Ascension: Not Rapture, But Rupture, The Illusion of Linear Time: The Root of Modern Spiritual Fallacies, and The Botched “Divine” Experiment: Bungle in the Jungle, reflect a deepening inquiry into the flawed energetic architectures and assumptions underlying modern spirituality.
Known as the "Integrated Shaman," Steve works at the intersection of practice and critique. He honors traditional shamanic roots while refining the language, understanding, and application for conteimporary life, offering grounded experential work focused on reintegration, reversing dissociation, healing truama, and the restoration of the Qi Life Force and functional wholeness.
Drawing from ancient wisdom, moderen source, and diverse belief systems, Steve delivers truly natural and integrated healing methods for holistic energetic wellness and continuity. His unique blend of knowledge empowers others to recognize the "archietecture" in which we operate and to recognize their inner healer. Whether you seek spiritual direction, face personal or spiritual thresholds, or wish to reclaim your personal power and "lost" pieces of Self, Integrated Shaman offers treatments that resonate across Mind, Body, and Spirit.
