Soul Retrieval
What is Soul Retrieval?
A shamanic practice that heals by bringing back fragmented parts of our soul: restoring our life force energy.
Shamanic healing sees illness as soul loss: our life force is unavailable to us because it is trapped in a loop of woundedness. Our energy is caught in past situations where we experienced trauma(s). To survive those experiences, it was necessary to separate from that part of ourselves to survive- what psychologists often refer to as disassociation. Our life force -our soul part(s)- may not be able to return or may not understand the threat is no longer present.
As time passes, we find it increasingly difficult to move forward in life because we lack access to this essence and its spiritual gifts and skills. For lack of a better word, we feel stuck, unable to overcome obstacles and behaviors that keep us from being the best we can be.
- The goal of soul retrieval is to revisit those places with the intention to
heal the trauma - Retrieve the soul pieces and recover one’s spiritual gifts
- Bring back a power animal, a spiritual ally, who teaches us how to use our gifts and move forward in life, moving out of old unhealthy habits and behaviors and establishing healthy, joy-filled, loving patterns of living
Preparation for Soul Retrieval begins with intense dream analysis.
Before we begin your Soul Retrieval, you will receive a detailed document explaining each process step. The first step is dream analysis. Each night before you go to bed, you will state your intention (aloud) where you ask the Universe/Creator/Your Helping Spirits to remove from you any obstacles that keep you from being whole and complete: to remove any obstacles that would keep you from receiving all soul pieces that are ready to return. Before you get up and into your day, pause and write down your dream.
Keeping a detailed dream log is a significant part of your healing process. This log should include as much detail as possible about your dreams and any triggers you may have experienced during the week. Triggers can be events, emails, phone calls, or conversations that evoke a strong negative response. You will share this log with me weekly, and I will provide a comprehensive analysis of each dream. Once I start noticing repeating patterns, wounds, and issues, it’s a sign that you are ready for your Soul Retrieval.
The Soul Retrieval session itself is a three-hour process. During this time, I will drum until I have journeyed to all the places I am shown and retrieve the soul pieces ready to be returned to you. Once this is complete, I may use my rattle to begin sealing in your energy. After that, you will hear the first words of your healing story – your spiritual gifts journey. Following this, I will journey to retrieve your power animal, a spirit ally that will offer you the right and perfect medicine to use your gifts and skills in everyday life. I make a recording of each journey, and you will need to listen to these recordings until you have integrated the energetic healing of the soul retrieval process. Soul Retrieval can be done remotely. I will review this process with you before we proceed.
I schedule a thirty-minute call to discuss your progress two to three weeks after the retrieval. During that call, you share how life has changed after your retrieval: what areas are better, where you feel more secure and vibrant in life, and where you think you are still having difficulty expressing your authentic self. In most cases, no further work is required, and you continue with life. Sometimes, a second shamanic session is needed to return to a power animal for further advice or suggestions on integrating the healing experience better.
For those clients who have experienced complicated traumas, psychiatric hospitalization, or suicidal episodes, I recommend working with healthcare professionals such as therapists, psychologists, or psychiatrists to integrate further the healing work begun with Soul Retrieval.
Soul Retrieval is a deep, authentic, energetic, spiritual healing. Its transformative power reshapes your life by restoring lost aspects of Self and empowers you to embrace new, healthier ways of living.
