Living As Light (The Awakening of Mystical Consciousness)

In "Living As Light," Brent shares with us his journey to spiritual awakening through trauma. Ultimately, his story is our own. The traumas of our lives are a map to spiritual awakening. Inherent in the bodymind are the keys to conscious awakening as the quantum creators we are intended to be. Through his healing work with over 14,000 trauma survivors and his own intuitive abilities inherited from his family, Brent leads us into the realm of true alternative healing -- the emergent fields of somatic psychology and energy psychology. We have been oppressed for centuries by an outdated "moral responsibility model" which was severly handicapped by its ignorance of the power of trauma to control our decision-making process. Even "Genesis" speaks to us anew of the power of trauma and shame (not moral failure) to drive us from our natural Edenic existence. In this new era of awakening, the familial, religious, social and even political systems are awakening to the deleterious impact of trauma on decision-making. Trauma and shame impair decision-making and deprive us of the very outcomes we seek. In the 24 chapters of this book, Brent guides us through the principles and insights that help us to actualize our "Inner Physician" and the "Mystic" we each hold within. Our natures are naturally intuitive, healing, connected to all that is, and designed to draw to us our highest good, if we but honor the lessons of trauma. The traumas of our lives often present us with the "map of the soul" and its path to spiritual awakening and higher evolution. This work serves as a guide to help us along this path which is our destiny and our future.
