4.0 out of 5 stars Whoa there horsie, Aug 1 2002
By A Customer
Some critical reviews on that first page there about the author not teaching soul retrieval and being self important. To teach shamanic soul retrieval in a book would be highly irresponsible. Also if you keep in mind that this is the FIRST book on soul retrieval and that in many ways she was the first person to teach people how to do this in the US, who was she going to reference besides her self? Also the whole thing has evolved since then as well.
This is a nice intro to soul retrieval, its not too complex, and the case studies are meant to give people a good idea of what it is, it is not a how to book. If your advanced in shamanism, this is not likely to teach you new things but might give you some insights. If you find anyone who will teach you shamanic journeying/soul retrieval in a book run the other way. The audiotape is also very nice, and the way she presents the material in the tape is very easy to understand. This is not a Carlos Castaneda type book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great introduction and possible salvation, Oct 13 2003
By J. Towe "Quiet Place" (Bristol, TN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book found its way into my hands. I had no previous information concerning Shamanism or the practices there of. Upon reading this book I felt a new understanding of my own life and wanted to learn more. I found a Shaman who performed a soul retrieval for me. What Sandra Ingerman had written in this book prepared me for the experiences.
As it happened, this book was the catapult into a new "knowing". I've since loaned this book to others, and still have a list of those yet to borrow it. My excitement about this book is comparable to "salvation"! :)
But, I would also interject here that this was my first introduction to Shamanism. Those already familiar with the practices might find this book trivial. If so, please keep in mind the usefulness it holds for "beginners" and that everyone must find their own doorway.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good overview but ..., April 23 2003
By A Customer
This is a very good overview on the general/traditional technique of Soul Retrieval. There are a bit too many examples of client studies and perhaps not enough analysis of the spiritual things which occurred. What is most disturbing is that in the preface the author says something completely contradictory to the rest of the book regarding how to restore the soul part once retrieved.

Perhaps this book demonstrates most clearly the current tension and change in the area of soul retrieval. In general, the formal patterns of shamanism, including the use of drumming being necessary to achieve trance states, are under question and being challenged. Many people today are able to enter shamanic states of consciousness through concentration alone. As more people become capable of shamanic techniques the older assumptions will be modified and fall away.

This book is a good representative of the more formal ideas about soul retrieval how they were understood perhaps ten or twenty years ago. If you read this just remember that it is your awareness and attention that are the real keys to opening to shamanic experiences, not being constrained to specific static techniques.
