How do so many of us transcend trauma? Trauma can initiate a natural evolutionary dynamic, and transport us into otherworldly realms that support healing. Yet these revolutionary findings are overlooked by traditional psychology. Dr. Janet Colli presents compelling stories of spiritual awakening, out-of-body experiences (OBEs), lucid dreams, and near-death experiences (NDEs)—revealed during trauma therapy. Those who experience a dark night of the soul often develop special awareness or enhanced perceptual abilities. Trauma can be a portal to a biologically-based transformation of the human personality. Case stories—of the healing of cancer, traumatic brain injury, eating disorders, and sexual abuse—-reveal the healing potential within us all.
