Loana's Way: A truth inspired journey about the healing power we hold within

By LISA GOTWALS

Loana's Way is the incredible true story, told in novel form, of a young woman's spiritual journey from trauma to deep healing, freedom, and peace ― think The Shack meets The Untethered Soul. As the book opens, Jenn, a high school student with a troubled past, finds herself in a psychiatric hospital after being raped at a party. Her mother, with whom Jenn has a complicated relationship, has dropped her off at the entrance with no offer of emotional support. Then, through her despair, Jenn hears a beautiful, angelic voice telling her she is loved and never alone. Thus, begins a beautiful spiritual transformation that unfolds in parallel with her struggle to overcome a series of devastating life events. Upon her release from the hospital, Jenn must deal with the consequences of the attack, and a devastating personal decision, on her own. Her mother kicks her out of the house, and her father and stepmother are too wrapped up in their own lives to understand what she is going through. There is one bright spot during that time - her relationship with Christian. Generous, loving, and loyal to a fault, it seems he will do anything to keep her safe. Just when Jenn thinks her problems are over, his "love" turns toxic, threatening her mind, body, and soul. After much hard work, Jenn builds a successful life as a wife, a mother, and nurse. Outwardly she has everything, but the feelings of worthlessness and anger continue to bubble to the surface. In order to save her family and herself, she travels to Hawaii to embark on a Soul Journey. There, surrounded by the lush beauty of nature, she is guided by a Shaman, a Native American elder, Owl, Wolf, and Hawk. Jenn soon finds herself unravelling her pain and suffering as she is met by the angelic being Loana.Loana reminds Jenn of her true essence as she shows her a system of healing, passed down from Native American elders, that encompasses energy work and plant medicine, that clears energetic blockages and the diseases they cause. Most importantly, she discovers her purpose in life is to bring that healing, Loana's Way, to others. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Lisa has always felt a deep connection with healing energy.
