“Every book… has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and of those who read it and lived and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens.” ~Carlos Ruis Zafon

It has been said, “The best things in life are free.” We can all agree it’s nice to be surprised with a gift; but not just any gift. The gift that arrives in your life precisely when you are ready to receive it. The gift that is clearly a message to you and for you.

In this case, the gift is Soul Retrieval: Mending the Fragmented Self by Sandra Ingerman.

With graceful delivery of rarely discussed phenomena, Soul Retrieval: Mending the Fragmented Self combines shamanism and psychology to explain the effects of trauma that cause parts of the soul to leave the body and the process by which the part(s) can be retrieved.

WHAT CAUSES SOUL LOSS?

According to Ingerman, “The basic premise is whenever we experience trauma, a part of our vital essence separates from us in order to survive the experience by escaping the full impact of the pain.”

This quiet occurrence, known as soul loss, takes the form of a perpetual feeling and experience of incompleteness and disconnection.

Ingerman says.

The wound is the best place for the light to enter your being, and it may take the work of a shaman to help you fully heal. Sandra Ingerman, a shamanic healer, reveals the importance of soul retrieval for repairing of one’s being. She discusses the nature of the soul, how it can become fractured over many reincarnations, and how we are protected in moments of trauma. This is not just something we need individually, but the world is experiencing a collective loss of soul. As we undertake our own healing, we affect global soul retrieval..I WAS BLESSED TO BE TRAINED IN SOUL RETRIVAL BY SANDRA HERSELF.
