Shamanic energy teacher Karen Johnson writes with both hope and compassion in a book described by bestselling author and noted shamanic teacher Alberto Villoldo as The owners manual for embracing grief with courage and transforming it into wisdom, to discover the ultimate and lasting gift of joy.Karen Johnsons fast-paced professional life came to an abrupt halt when she lost her twenty-seven-year-old son to a heroin overdose. Rather than grieve in a way that made people around her comfortable, she did the unexpected. She retired, sold her house and all her household goods, and went on a two-and-a-half-year journey that took her all over the world, finding a spiritual practice along the way.Karen didnt think she could ever find her way out of despair, but she found a process that worked-a sacred journey and map-that she wants to share with others so they can heal too. This book is structured around practices that are part of the Four Winds Medicine Wheel as developed by Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D. Karen blends her personal story and meaningful experiences with each direction of the Medicine Wheel, offering exercises related to each of the four practices.Writes Karen, I want you to know something really important. You may be feeling stuck in your grief and wondering why you cant seem to get over it. I felt the same way until I realized we do not get over grief. Its not like catching the - u; we arent sick. There is no cure, and we cant medicate it away. Grief is a state of being that carries energy that you can tap into to create a new life. Just as we use the energy of other newly acquired states of being like marriage or parenthood to transform our lives, we can likewise use the energy of grieving to transform.

I am so honored to be able to express my gratitude to those who are an integral - photo 1

I am so honored to be able to express my gratitude to those who are an integral part of my journey and who guided me and were my cheerleaders through this process. To my son Ben who taught me about life on earth and life after death. To my daughter Caty who held me up through the funeral arrangements, encouraged me to leave my home, my job and all that was familiar to become a homeless seeker of answers to the great question, What is the meaning of grief? To my son-in-law, Hans Otten, who opened up his basement to the boxes and bags I left behind for two and a half years and who allowed me to crash as needed. To my little grandson, Vaughn, and baby Anika whose love brings me home. To my little Westie dog, Murphy, who comforts and loves me every day.

I owe a great debt of gratitude to my Hay House editor, Melody Guy, who always has sound advice, who allowed my authentic voice to flow, and who led me, a brand-new author, through the publishing process seamlessly. I must also mention kn literary arts who helped me find a great editor, Annie Wylde, to help me with my initial drafts. I also want to express my gratitude to Hay House who encourages new authors, took a chance on me, and brought this book forward. And, so much love and gratitude to Jol Simone Anthony, mortician, author and teacher of Sayin It Louder: A Conversation about A Good Death in a Racist Society. Thank you for becoming a dear friend and for reviewing my book for cultural sensitivity.

Every day I thank Elizabeth Lesser, founder of Omega institute and author of so many books, for taking a moment to respond to me, a woman she never met, when I was in the depths of despair and who continues to support and encourage me. Elizabeth, you may not know it but you saved my life that day. Thank you to Linda Star Wolf, a shaman sister whose work I love, who wrote the foreword to this book. I also want to thank Dr. Alberto Villoldo and Marcela Lobos for their continued guidance and support and all the staff and faculty of the Four Winds Society. You taught me well. And much love to all my students who allow me to walk the path of the shaman with them.

Finally, to all my Besties. To Martina Von Rettig who traveled with me, befriended me, laughed uproariously with me, and held my soul in her mystical hands. To Nettie Jean Scarzafava; who opened her home to me to write non-stop for three weeks on her dining room table, and who continues to offer food and comfort. To the lake ladies who wrapped their loving arms around me. To Karen Peters who painstakingly edited my drafts. To Maria Fernandez who read and loved and supported. To Bobbie McCartney who advised and read and kept on reading. Thank you, Beloveds.

Ben was three weeks overdue He didnt want to be born I believe he knew this - photo 4

Ben was three weeks overdue. He didnt want to be born. I believe he knew this life would be difficult and he put it off until the last moment. He was in crisis. No heartbeatthen a faint onethen an emergency C-section. He was blue. I was frantic, his father fainted, and Ben was rushed to the NICU. Maybe Ben knew how much we loved him; maybe he knew he had a big purpose in life. In any case, he lived.

Sixteen years later...

Ben wanted to play football his freshman year in high school. The physical showed something was wrong with his spine. He was diagnosed with a condition resembling a hunchback, which got worse every year. He was nicknamed Quasimodo by his friends. In his senior year, Ben ended up having a 12-hour surgery to insert two 17-inch rods in his spine. He missed most of the school year and had to graduate from an alternative high school. He also had hammer toes that had to be straightened with rods. It was an experimental procedure that failed, and when the rods came out, he ended up with jointless, floppy toes. It could be that he had a mild case of Marfan syndrome, a genetic disorder affecting the connective tissue, often resulting in joint and spine issues and heart defects. Indeed, his autopsy showed an enlarged heart consistent with the rest of his symptoms.

He railed against me and his father, saying he was a freak of nature and should never have been born. Even dating was difficult for himhe believed he was deformed and was self-conscious about the long scar on his spine and his floppy toes. We tried so many things to minimize that scareven an expensive and painful laser process. Trying to reason with him that he now had a straight back led to more angry exchanges. He refused to take off his shirt in public or wear sandals. What I only dimly realized was that the scar was not only on his back, but it was also on his soul.
