I have had the good fortune to sit in circle with Heidi McBratney to both experience and witness the effects of her down-to-earth teachings and exercises. The simple exercises allow participants to focus and get out of their own way and gain new perspectives.
I love witnessing the ‘aha’ moments.
Rev. Gillian Edwards
I was recently diagnosed with PTSD, depression, and anxiety with panic attacks, and I was immediately taken off active duty to attempt to manage my mental health. My family referred me to Heidi who helped me process trauma I faced as a Police Officer as well as trauma from my childhood. With Heidi, I experienced a spiritual awakening which allowed me to release all of my trauma, which impacted me so profoundly, it was life changing. I believe it would have taken years of traditional therapy to get to this level of healing. Heidi guided me to help me retrieve my soul that had been lost for years. She gave me the tools to help me evolve and I’ve been able to return to my career healthier in all aspects: physically, mentally, emotionally, and better equipped to help my community. I can’t thank Heidi enough.
K.S.
Working through the concepts in this book is so life-affirming and uplifting! I really appreciate how Heidi’s explanations and personal examples are easy to grasp and how I’ve been able to apply these ideas within my daily life. I have emerged with a clear spiritual compass, now that I know myself, I know my strengths, and I have rediscovered the light of my soul.
E.C.
On our eternal quest for peace and happiness, Heidi provides us with a road map to guide us home to our true self. She eloquently leads us to discover our true nature and the importance each one of us plays in the collective whole. She takes us to a place where spirit flows through effortlessly and where life is infused with joy, love, and wisdom. Much gratitude, Heidi, for writing this book at a time when humanity needs to feel and honor its inter-connectedness more than ever
