What is Soul Loss?
Do any of these describe you?
- “I’m not all here”
- “Dispirited”
- “Spaced out”
- “Sleepwalking through life”
- “Powerless to move away from an healthy situation”
- “Haven’t come out of it yet”
- “Part of me is still with him or her”
The basic premise is that whenever we experience trauma, a part of our vital essence (Soul) separates from us in order to survive the experience by escaping the full impact of the pain.
Some causes of Soul Loss
- Illness or accident
- Major surgery
- Not feeling loved or abandoned by a parent
- Divorce, separation or break up
- Death of a loved one
- Abusive relationship
Have you spent time in therapy or self-help groups trying to uncover and heal your traumas to become whole again but feel it hasn’t fully helped? From what I’ve experienced, learned and read self-help and psychotherapy are helpful but they work only on the parts of us that are “home.”
If a part of your vital essence (Soul) has fled, how can you bring it back? The ancient spiritual path of Shamanism provides powerful techniques for bringing back parts of our life-energy that might otherwise remain out of reach for years.
Some Signs of Soul Loss
- Memory gaps
- Post traumatic stress syndrome
- Immune deficiency problems
- Grief that just does not heal
- Dissociation
- Depression
- Physical Illness
How Shamanism works to retrieve lost Soul Parts
Shamans believe that a part of our essential life-energy (Soul) can split off and become lost or intentionally left behind in “nonordinary reality.” So this is where we need to travel to if you want to fully heal from our trauma. With the guidance of a shamanic practitioner we Journey into “nonordinary” reality to call back our lost soul parts, call back our power, find answers, meet guides that will create a healed outcome for our life.
Through my Shamanic Medicine Work training I have learned many Journeys and Ceremonies that help get clients unstuck. We work together to retrieve, call and accept back the parts of themselves that was lost or left behind.
