SOUL RETRIEVALS
Soul Retrieval is an ancient healing ceremony that has been practiced in a variety of forms throughout the world. It is based upon the understanding that challenging life experiences can and sometimes do cause soul loss.
Traditionally, signs that soul loss had occurred included when a person stopped singing, dancing, listening to stories, or enjoying the sweet sanctuary of silence. In our modern context, we might think of soul loss as a trauma response.
Common signs of soul loss today include, but aren’t limited to:
feelings of disassociation
depression and anxiety
trouble initiating or following through with creative dreams and aspirations
addiction
compulsive or self destructive behavior
Soul Retrieval for Trauma Healing
When trauma occurs, whether through accidents, dysfunctional environments, addiction, the loss of an important relationship, or abuse, an essence of our being will sometimes disassociate. In the moment of trauma, part of us leaves the physical body as a self protection mechanism. Because the universe does not allow for empty space, an individual who's experienced soul loss may then absorb energy that isn't theirs. This, in turn, can lead to the symptoms described above.
