shamanism
There difference is very subtle ! both belief systems are nonscientific and also provides a way for common people to tackle real hardships of the world. The major difference is scale of influence. If some powerful empire will follow a saman belief system and spread it across 1/3 of the world .. it'll become something like christanity. SO in that sense the belief systems which are regional with limited institutionalization are usually termed as shamanism.
Love and respect for all things around you and the belief that all things are apart of the great spirit.

Shamanism, with a capital "S", is the religion of the Tungus people of Siberia. However, shamanism, with a lower-case "s", is NOT a religion. Shamanism has come to be the term applied to similar practices from around the world. A shaman acts as the priest, or priestess, of an animistic society. Shamans commonly provide such services as soul retrieval, medical service, and prophecy for his/her tribe or village.
