The wick needs to be wet when it is used, and I find that soaking it in a little soapy water helps to break down the water resistance that some of the materials seem to have. You may add the wick when repotting by stringing it through the drainage hole in the pot and up over the top rim, then adding potting mix and the violet. Alternatively you may put the wick in after potting by using a hook (I use a hook made from stiff florist wire, but some prefer a crochet hook, and a long darning needle also works.) Simply push the straight end of the tool into a hole on the bottom of the pot, catch the wicking material in the hook, and pull on the tool at the top of the pot to bring it on through... do watch out so that leaves don't get punctured. The wick should dangle out the bottom of the pot and into a reservoir of water below (without the pot itself making contact with the water.)

Shamanism is believed to be the traditional religion of the Hmong people is still being practiced today in America. Shamanism involves a shaman (in the Hmong language, txiv neeb) that is known to be a healer of many things that are medically, haunting, or spiritually “wrong.” He travels to the spirit world to learn about the problems that are caused and brought upon someone from the real world (Xiong, 1998). They’re able to interact with spirits and able to call spirits back into the person that is “sick”. A shaman isn’t anything easy to become; you can’t just become a shaman because you want to, but you are given it through a visitation of the spirits either through a near death experience or a recovery from a severe illness (PBS, 2008). Most shamans are men but there are quite a few female shamans also.
