Whole Hearted Soul Retrieval
About the work

What is soul retrieval?

Reclaim your wholeness, vitality, and authentic self.

Have you ever felt that something essential is missing from your life? Perhaps you're moving through the motions, doing all the things you're supposed to do, yet something inside feels distant, quiet, or asleep.

In shamanic traditions, it is believed that when we experience trauma, loss, heartbreak, or overwhelming life events, parts of our soul may withdraw as a way of protecting us. This is sometimes called soul loss.

Soul retrieval is a sacred practice of inviting these lost or hidden parts of ourselves to return.

Meet your guide

Spirit is ready to assist.

Crystal Poppy is trained in Peruvian Shamanism by Nikki with the White Hawk Medicine lineage. She also draws on her unbroken Celtic ancestors, plant spirit medicine, and energy weaving in her spiritual practice.

Her gifts first revealed themselves through prophetic dreams as a teenager. Her connection with plant spirit medicine deepened when she was pregnant with her first child.

Your life is waiting for you.

Soul retrieval is an invitation to this kind of homecoming: to rediscover courage, creativity, tenderness, passion, and joy.
