The Return of the Healers
Book 1 in the series 'The Story of a Thousand Lifetimes
In the golden light between roots and branches, a healer remembers her name. Ancient vows break open, and the path of healing unfolds in silence and storm.
What if your life didn’t begin at birth—but unfolds across countless lifetimes, woven together by an invisible red thread?
​
In this first part of 'The Story of a Thousand Lifetimes', Joy takes you on a deeply personal and spiritual journey. When her seemingly ordinary life cracks under the weight of inner questions, she is unexpectedly pulled into the depths.
​
Through intense ayahuasca ceremonies, visionary encounters with guides, and confrontational relationships with loved ones, she gradually peels back the layers of her true Self. Between heaven and earth, loss and liberation, a mysterious path unfolds—full of ancient promises, karmic connections, and a soul task that extends far beyond this one life.
This is not a manual for enlightenment, but a living account of transformation. A book that doesn’t explain, but breaks you open.
