Soul Retrieval

 Indigenous peoples of the world are aware that traumatic life experiences can result in the fragmentation of our inner, vital essence or soul. The subsequent loss or disassociation of parts of the self often results in a phenomenon called 'soul loss.' Among the traditionals, soul loss is regarded as the primary cause of illness.

Soul loss can occur in response to severe life traumas such as physical, mental, emotional or sexual abuse. This can include a molestation experience during childhood, a divorce, abandonment, betrayal, surgery or an accident. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder that so many people have experienced as a result of war, famine, earthquakes and most recently, terrorism, is a classic example of soul loss. Yet soul loss can also be the result of something very subtle and personal to an individual. This is often the case with early childhood soul loss in which there has not been an overt trauma, yet the infant has not been welcomed, nurtured, loved and cared for adequately for her to feel safe in the world.

Soul loss is an important life-coping mechanism. It allows us to narrow our awareness and to focus on physical survival. If we were in touch with all our perceptions, they would most probably overwhelm us. So parts of the soul leave and unless they are welcomed back within a few days, they generally stay away until invited back.

There are certain symptoms of soul loss that frequently manifest as feelings of being fragmented, of not being all there; not being able to remember parts of one's life; apathy or listlessness, or a lack of joy in life; the inability to feel love for others or receive love from another. The loss of these parts of the self manifests frequently as despair, suicidal tendencies, addictions and depression.

Among the traditional peoples, those medicinemakers who specialize in soul retrieval work are assisted by their spirit helpers, tracking the lost soul parts, finding them and returning them to the person who has lost them. The result is that the individual's soul is restored to its whole and undistorted state. In the process, the person's vital essence returns as well, something that is frequently experienced as life-changing.

It is a great honor to be initiated into soul retrieval work. I feel that I've been preparing for this for the past twenty years. I'm happy to talk to you more about soul retrieval, if this 'speaks' to you.
