Publisher's Synopsis
It can be easy for us to feel that darkness is overwhelming and inescapable. In our fast-paced lives, we are inundated with stories of suffering, trauma and loss. Even within our own minds, we can face a daily battle with our own doubts and limiting beliefs.
It's important now more than ever for us to rise up and shine, connecting with the light within us to transform and heal ourselves and the world around us. In hey radiant souls, Heather Mays combines artwork and messages channeled from her Spirit Guides with stories of life as a psychic, intuitive and energy healer. Activities at the end of each chapter help the reader integrate the messages. Reconnect with your light. Reflect your radiance. Excerpt:As an Intuitive Counselor, I've worked with so many beautiful, amazing and fiercely talented individuals who, despite their successes, feel disconnected. They feel at odds with the daily grind; out of step with their goals, marching in footsteps that aren't the right fit for their own natural strides. Many feel surprised at how they got to the present moment. A seemingly successful life should feel blissful, joyous and ecstatic. Yet something felt amiss, a key out of tune in the overall melody. The pressures of everyday life can tug and pull at our Spirit. The expectations others have of us and those we place upon ourselves exert a gravitational force that reshapes us. When we experience disappointments, traumas or loss, we can lose our footing. Our past, present and future shift underneath us like tectonic plates colliding with such force that we feel uprooted, upended and completely restructured. The fault lines that result from these geological soul shifts can plunge us into a fractured darkness. It is from within this inky blackness, through the shadowy caves of anxiety, fear, confusion and grief that we learn just how brightly we can shine. But few of us have the right tools to excavate those dark caverns. We look for the quick fix - the new job, the new house, the new diet. We look to the new president, prime minister or political party to deliver the life or society we feel we deserve. We think the positive thoughts, we "vibe" higher, we cleanse our auras, we do_all_the_things...and yet we still feel shackled to shadows we are unable to release. We pretend it's ok. We pretend that we're whole. We pretend that the scar tissue will smooth over and we'll magically wake up happy. Content. Perfect. But there is no easy fix. Shadow work is the energetic exchange required for navigating the new geography. It is the toll we pay to venture farther along the highway of possibilities. Our own shadows are illuminated only by our own unique light. When we reconnect to our radiance, we mine the sparkling gems buried within the darkness.

Some parts of the book had me laughing out loud, while others had me cringing with discomfort. The author has a way of expressing herself that truly makes you feel like you're right there with her.
