Soul

Retrieval

     Soul retrieval is one of the oldest healing practices found across Northern traditions. In the Norse world, Seiðr‑workers shifted their awareness, entered the deeper layers of a person’s inner landscape, and brought back the parts of them that had gone quiet during shock, grief, or long‑term stress. These pieces weren’t lost — they stepped aside so the person could survive what was happening.

     Modern psychology echoes this idea. Carl Jung — one of the most influential psychologists of the 20th century — wrote about how people split off parts of themselves during overwhelming experiences. He believed healing happens when those parts return and reintegrate. Soul retrieval is the ancestral version of that same principle, carried through a different doorway.

Why I do this work

I do this work because life kept steering me toward it — quietly, consistently, and long before I had words for it. My path was shaped by experiences that taught me how people break, adapt, and set parts of themselves aside just to keep going, and I learned to recognize that pattern in myself first and then in others. Because I’ve lived those depths, I can see when a core part has stepped back and know how to track it, meet it, and guide it home. This work isn’t abstract to me; it’s personal and familiar, something I was built to do. Soul retrieval returns the pieces people had to set down along the way, and I do it because I know what it’s like to lose them — and what it means to finally bring them back.

Who this work serves

This work is for people who feel a quiet distance inside themselves — a sense that a part of them stepped back during a defining moment. They’ve kept going, built lives, and shown up for others, but they can still feel something missing: a heaviness, a hesitation, or the sense that they’re moving through life with less of themselves than they once had. Many who come here have lived through seasons that reshaped them. They learned to adapt, stay strong, and keep going even when the cost was high, but they can feel the strain of holding everything together without their full inner resources. They want clarity about repeating patterns, big reactions, or muted instincts, and they’re ready to reconnect with the part of themselves that stepped aside. Most are deeply self‑aware — they’ve done the reading, the reflection, the inner work — and now want support that meets them at the depth they already operate from. This work gives them a way back to themselves, helping them reclaim the pieces that hold their clarity, confidence, and presence. For many, it’s the first time they’ve felt fully here in a long time.

The typical relief clients report

People often tell me they feel lighter after this work — not just emotionally, but in their body, their mind, and the way they move through their day. In older Seiðr traditions, returning a lost part of the self was known to shift the whole system, and Jung wrote about this too: reclaiming what was hidden brings a person back into alignment with who they are. That’s what I see in the people who come to me. Their anxiety softens, their mood steadies, and the heaviness they’ve carried for years begins to lift. Their sleep improves, their body relaxes, and many describe a quiet, steady joy returning to their everyday life. This work reconnects people with the parts of themselves that hold clarity, instinct, and direction. When those pieces return, life feels more natural, grounded, and fully lived. They respond instead of reacting, stay more present, and feel a peace they didn’t realize they were missing.

The full process takes roughly 45 minutes to an hour, depending on what we’re working with, followed by an integration period that can unfold over several weeks to months as your system adjusts and settles into the return.

WHAT TO EXPECT

     When you sit down with me, we start by getting oriented. I lay a full tarot spread, pull one shadow‑work card, and one animal spirit card. That gives me a clear read on the core wound pattern and the direction of the work. We talk briefly about your natural “happy place” or meditation space — the inner location where you feel steady and safe. That’s where the reintegration will happen later.

     We’ll be seated at a small table, holding hands as our grounding point. I work through my hand chakras — the Hasta Chakras, Lalita and Kalavati — while using breathwork to open and steady the ond, keeping the field stable and the connection clean as I drop in.

     I put on the ancestral rhythm that drops me into theta and supports the trance‑channel state, the same pattern my line has always used for travel.

     Once the rhythm settles, I anchor and shift into channel mode. My ancestors step in at that point. Their role is to help clear out the old density, the stuck emotional residue, and the shadow‑weight that shows up during the journey through your mind‑scape.

     Before I travel anywhere, I ask my spirit animal for permission and protection — for me, for you, and for the fragment. Then I ask your spirit guide to help me navigate your mind‑scape accurately; the animal you pulled from the oracle deck is the guide that steps forward for this work. I don’t move until I get a clear yes from both. Once everything is aligned, I enter your mind‑scape and begin looking for the fragment. When I find them, I check in on what they need, whether they’re ready, and what support they require to move toward reintegration.

     Before we move through the heavier terrain, you’ll make a short declaration to your fragment — a direct acknowledgment and an invitation home. That is the only thing you’ll have speak out loud unless you personally feel drawn to do so. You may feel emotional waves, pressure shifts, heat, cold, crying, shaking, runny nose, drooling — all of this is normal. Your body reacts because something real is moving.

     When we reach the point of return, we bring the fragment back to the happy place you described at the beginning. That’s where the reintegration happens — steady, supported, and intentional. After that, we come back to the physical space, release the contact point, and close the session cleanly.


CLIENT AGREEMENT REQUIREMENT

All clients are required to complete a separate Client Agreement before any session begins. This document must be read carefully AND in full, initialed at each individual agreement, with a signature and the date of the session at the bottom IN PERSON. A completed agreement is required for each session. Most clients will only need one, but if a second session is necessary, a new agreement must be completed again.
