The Spiritual Alchemist introduces readers to the practice of spiritual alchemy, a transformational path that allows us to hear the unique voice of our soul -- our purest source of wisdom, creativity, and inspiration. It is the voice that can reveal our true purpose for this lifetime, and help us navigate and overcome all obstacles to our emotional and spiritual growth.
Through a series of engaging exercises, you learn to create and work in a profoundly life-changing inner "laboratory" that transforms habitual ways of perceiving time, self, and the world. Instead of working with a fixed set of someone else s symbols or concepts, you discover your path out of the deepest truths of who you, as an individual, truly are. What you learn will ultimately help you set your life's compass -- as the ancients did -- by your soul's intent.
Natalie Reid, a practicing spiritual alchemist, conducts workshops in spiritual alchemy and other transformational processes throughout North America and Europe. Taken straight from her powerful workshop on spiritual alchemy, this remarkable book gives you not only the discoveries and insights of workshop participants, but also a clear set of hands-on techniques for becoming a spiritual alchemist in your own life.
As Howard Schwarz (author of Tree of Souls: The Mythology of Judaism) writes: "In this luminous book, Natalie Reid provides the clearest explanations of the nature of the soul ('the part of you that is part of the divine') and the means of shaping our inner lives through spiritual alchemy self-transformation. Her quest takes her into the deepest realms of our being, and illuminates spiritual mysteries with unprecedented clarity. Those who find their way to this book should consider themselves extremely fortunate."
