What is a soul retrieval?
Sometimes it feels like a part of you is missing. You may experience sadness, pain, inconsistencies in your thoughts and emotions, and even anger. Feeling this loss, you may want to seek unusual help. A soul recovery may be just what you need.
What is it?
From a technical perspective, soul retrieval is a tool used by shamans to retrieve a part of the soul that has been lost due to trauma, internal conflict, deep pain, excessive stress, or a birth event that created a loss of power.
How does it work?
Soul recovery begins with a conversation with a shaman or a shamanic practitioner who will ask questions about why the individual feels this loss occurred and what they are experiencing as a result of it. The shaman will then communicate with their energy field and, through a myriad of practices, will determine the chakras most affected by soul loss and gain additional information or energies to assist them in the recovery itself. The shaman will ask you to lie down on a table or on the floor and they will go into a deep trance where they will recover the soul. Drums, music, or breathing techniques can be part of going into a trance. A soul recovery guides the practitioner to the soul of the individual receiving the healing.
Once in a trance, the shaman will energetically and consciously travel to a place called the nether world where the chambers of the soul exist. In these chambers are the energies of the lost soul part, the contract or decisions made after the soul loss occurred, the energies to heal the part, and other gifts or healing energies to advance the individual’s life. The shaman will travel to each of these chambers to recover, learn and heal the loss of the soul.
Once his work in the nether world is complete, the shaman will ask the animal spirits for guidance and one or more animal spirits may choose to assist in integrating the healing and return to a shaman. The shaman will then travel back to the present with the healing energy, gifts, and animal spirits that choose to return.
Once back, the shamanic will bring the energies to the individual’s chakra and entire energy system as guided to purchase his guides. Finally, the shaman will perform a complete healing and balance the new energies in the individuals system. Once the physical healing is complete, the shaman will share his information of what he saw and experienced on the journey to the nether world with the individual and will offer the opportunity for healing to occur on a very deep cycle psychological level.
The ramifications of a recovery can last for months and can also be affected by future recoveries. This is not an experience to do every day, rather, a deep and moving practice that must be done with reverence and understanding of the sacredness of the event.
Soul Recoveries can last from one to three hours and are offered for a variety of body, mind, and soul challenges. As a shamanic healer, I have personally offered recovery sessions for chronic illnesses, trauma like rape and child abuse, life path questions, and stressful situations like the loss of a parent, child, or spouse.
I am not saying that these traumas are always indicative of the need for recovery. There are times when INLP, hypnotherapy, shamanic counseling, or other integrative therapies are more appropriate forms of healing. Work with your individual physician to see what is best for your personal situation.
Namaste and many blessings,
