Gratitude is an important aspect when working with Spirit.  The shaman makes an offering of thanks to Spirit first, before a request is made; as opposed to the standard way of offering thanks or money, etc., after a service is performed.  It is a conscious action, not perfunctory in any way, creating a balance of giving and receiving between Self and Spirit.
