Curanderismo Soul Retrieval

Mind Body & Soul Ezine: Curanderismo Soul Retrieval - Ancient Shamanic Wisdom to Restore the Sacred Energy of the Soul by Erika Buenaflor MA JD. Published by Bear & Co. RRP US $18.00 : Can $22.50 

The author is well qualified to write a book on this topic as she has a Master’s Degree in religious studies, specialising in Mesoamerican shamanism from the University of  California. She has studied and practised Curandera and ancient shamanic healing traditions of Mexico, Maya and Peru for more than 20 years. In this book there is a step by step guide to Curandera soul retrieval method. Soul theft, fragmentation, etc., require trance journeying into the Underworld, Middleworld and Upperworld to locate and reintergrate the soul. 

The soul is explained, how trauma affects the soul, and the physical and mental illness that can result. Breathwork, dance, intoning and chanting, and hand postures, and pressure points are explained. The five cardinal directions are explained as a portal to the Otherworlds. Contemplative exercises are included with animal guardians and meditations help the process. 

We need many types of healing and this one is interesting and working with these energies as I am doing, I find them powerful and most importantly safe. No psychoactive drugs are mentioned, so for a change, shamanism is taught without the dangers of drugs.
