BLURB:

 

A TRANSFORMATIONAL MEMOIR OF LOVE AND LIGHT.

In Lani Gonzales' intimate self-help debut, Rebirth of a Sage, readers meet the woman she was when she discovered ayahuasca and commenced her journey toward spiritual rejuvenation. Panicked, fearful, and drained, she hoped for an escape for both her and the lonely little girl she'd buried inside. Guided by the Shamans and supported by friends she made along the way, her cleanse progressed one ceremony at a time, culminating in a state of pure spiritual refinement.

Through eleven soul-stirring chapters enriched with enlightenment and healing, readers experience a kaleidoscope of emotions as they journey with Lani. A heartwarming chronicle ensues, traversing the blissful highs and devastating lows she faced along her way to rebirth. Unburying her darkest demons, she inspires us to do the same, gradually weaving threads of transformation and encouraging us to reconnect and reignite the divine flame within our souls.

Excerpt One:

 

I will not carry the weight of your sin.

It is yours to carry, and not my own. 

When my innocent eyes looked to you,

You took your life, and I slowly lost my own.

But that is your sin to carry, and your sin alone.

 

 

I will not carry the weight of your sin.

It is yours to carry, and not my own.

You taught me that life was worthless,

Something that easily comes and goes.

But that is your sin to carry, and your sin alone.

 

You trespassed on my innocence, the pureness of my soul.

But that is your sin to carry, and your sin alone.

 

I will not carry the weight of your sin.

It is yours to carry, and not my own.

You told me to be silent.  You told me to be still.

But something inside me rotted; something inside me grew cold.

But that is your sin to carry, and your sin alone.

 

I will not carry the weight of your sin.

It is yours to carry, and not my own.

You violated my body, using it for the needs of your own.

But that is your sin to carry, and your sin alone.

 

I will not carry the weight of your sin.

It is yours to carry, and not my own.

The weight I’ve tried to shed. 

The weight I’ve tried to purge.

Deceived into believing it should be shed from my body, the vessel for my soul.

But the weight that should be lost is that of your original sin, your sin, and yours alone.

 

I will not carry the weight of your sin.

It is not mine to carry.

It is yours and yours alone.

topic:  What do you hope readers will gain from your book?

 

Rebirth of a Sage is not your typical self-help book.  Rebirth of a Sage is a story of hope, an offering of love and light to those still searching in the darkness.  The book does not provide a step-by-step guide on how to heal or find self love.  The answers and antidotes that we seek are not from a book, counselor or life coach.  Every answer and every cure is within each of us and can be accessed once we unbury our afflictions.
