Produktbeschreibung
Awakening the Healing Soul is a paradigm busting exploration of contemporary psychology that updates the profession with ancient shamanic wisdom. Having traveled to remote regions of the world exploring "jungle medicine" Blanchard, through storytelling and in fine trickster fashion, charts a hopeful healing course for the suffering person. Shamans and sangomas are among the author's instructors. The healing power of the human mind, rituals within ceremonies, community involvement, and plant medicines can remedy most any malady from trauma to addictions. Age-old aboriginal concepts of sacred magic and the super natural hold equal standing and can be as effective as many Western healing practices. After being successfully applied for tens of thousands of years, evidence-based methods are the hallmark of indigenous medicine. Similarly, best practices are not just mechanical in nature but spirit infused - another time-tested way of healing.

Autorenporträt
Geral Blanchard, LPC, BCCP, NCP, has enjoyed the privilege of serving patients in a psychotherapeutic setting over several decades. His professional career began in the field of child abuse, and later he addressed both sides of the equation-abusers as well as victims. Gerry has worked in a variety of settings as a consultant assessing violent individuals including rapists, lust murderers, and serial killers. With training in anthropology and psychology, Gerry has become increasingly appreciative of the diverse ways in which antipodal cultures respond to trauma, addictions, abusive behavior, and other seemingly irreparable physical maladies. In the last decade, his practice has shifted focus to incorporate indigenous healing wisdom into contemporary treatment models impacting a wide variety of patients. Gerry has observed and worked alongside shamans and sangomas in a variety of locations: South Africa, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Swaziland, Rwanda, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Canada, and the United States. He has participated in many indigenous rituals and ceremonies that incorporate plant medicines into the healing process. This experience has given him a strong interest in the efficacy of psychedelic medicines, especially when introduced in sacred treatment settings. Gerry has a psychotherapy office in Des Moines, Iowa, and can be reached at blanchardgeral@gmail.com.
