Publisher Description
A practical guide to releasing the burden of transgenerational legacies and reclaiming your power to create the life you want
• Explores the principles that govern your family energy field and the many ways this ancestral field can support you as well as how it can hold you captive
• Provides exercises and tools to help you recognize and release negative family patterns and heal ancestral trauma
• Discusses the importance of honoring your ancestors, sharing suggestions about altar creation, prayers, and the Vedic ritual of Tarpanam
Many people find themselves feeling stuck, unable to reach their goals. The same problems keep showing up in jobs and relationships no matter how much they try to make changes and overcome obstacles. What if the patterns that repeat in your life and relationships didn’t originate with you? The source of your challenges could be rooted in ancestral trauma calling out to be healed. Experiences and wounds of your parents or grandparents as well as more distant ancestors can affect you; sometimes themes reappear in a family for several generations in a row—patterns of financial distress, sibling rivalry, divorce, or conversely long happy marriages, good health, and good humor.
An energy practitioner specializing in ancestral and emotional healing, Anuradha Dayal-Gulati provides exercises and tools—such as journal practices, visualizations, mind mapping, and the Vedic ritual of Tarpanam—that can help you recognize and release negative family patterns and enhance positive ones. She shares her own healing journey and her experience with family constellation therapy, explains how to honor your ancestors, and explores in depth the use of flower essences to transform emotions and release generational trauma.
Teaching you how to recognize the patterns that manifest in your daily experiences, Heal Your Ancestral Roots shows how you can lift the unconscious, invisible barriers that keep you from creating the life you want.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this compassionate entry, personal development coach Dayal-Gulati (Global Corporate Citizenship) charts a path for readers to heal from ancestral trauma. While those who find themselves emotionally stuck tend to resort to external fixes—changing jobs, ending relationships—it's often necessary, the author writes, to address deep internal forces, such as harmful "ancestral energy patterns," that recur across generations as a result of damage to the "family energy field." To achieve healing, she suggests "family constellation therapy," in which practicers process deep-rooted ancestral pain by, for example, rewriting their "parental stories" in order to release unaddressed suffering: the observation "I have felt unloved," can morph into a more healing insight, such as "I know my mother was too depressed to express her love to me." Tackling transgenerational pain can also include meditating on shame-causing family secrets and learning to emotionally let go of negative energy. Dayal-Gulati also recommends ingesting specific flower essences: honeysuckle can help release limiting memories, while wild rose treats apathy. This entry takes a nuanced approach to addressing family suffering, and readers will find her advice actionable and cathartic. Dayal-Gulati's wisdom will easily attract the spiritually inclined.
