“While others may lose sight of the purpose of life during a depressive episode, a spiritual person will keep a connection to the great wisdom of the universe.”
This book is an exploration of the dark night of the soul and a guide back toward the light.
This is the second book I have purchased from Emily Jennings and she has done it again! The issues I have had in my life she addresses them in this book. It’s like she’s gone into my head and knows how I feel. If you feel like you are in dark part of your life or need healing due to trauma do yourself a favor and get this book! Highly recommend!

The dark night of the soul is an important part of the spiritual awakening process, but it is also the most challenging time you’ll ever face. As you lose faith in the universe and you are pushed to let go of everything you once believed in, you must establish a new connection with the divine realm on your own terms. The journey is a blind walk through a dark tunnel with no reason to hope for the light to be found again, and yet your soul knows that there is some reason for it all. It’s not forever. The light does come back. It is a rebirth.
