Robert Moss – The Soul Recovery Training

Draw from powerful cross-cultural shamanic practices and Mystery Traditions to journey back through time, recover lost pieces of your soul, and experience greater wholeness, energy and passion for life.
Discover poetic enchantments and trans-temporal healing as potent ways to reconnect with your magical child and entertain your creative spirit to gently and lovingly “re-ensoul” yourself.

Ancient shamans knew something that is vital and relevant for our healing and awakening in modern times — the understanding that in the course of any life we are liable to suffer soul loss, the loss of parts of our vital energy and identity.

While we may not know we’ve experienced soul loss, at some point most of us must find the means of soul recovery in order to be whole and feel vital and passionate about life.

Soul loss has many causes…

The world seems too cold and cruel, and part of us goes away. In cases of profound trauma, splitting from our soul may be a survival mechanism.

Our soul may leave because we are compelled to make a wrenching life choice. When we take a certain road or a certain partner in one reality, another part of us rejects that choice and travels on a different road, or lingers at the place where we parted company.

We grieve the death of a beloved person, and part of us follows that loved one, even into lands of the dead.

We can lose soul because we refuse to take on the assignments that nourish and entertain our creative spirit. Soul leaves when we won’t follow dreams, for a reason stated with wonderful clarity by Mary Oliver:

The most regretful people on earth are those who felt the call to creative work, who felt their own creative power restive and uprising, and gave to it neither power nor time.

How do you know you have soul loss?

Common symptoms of soul loss include chronic fatigue; emotional numbness; chronic depression; spaciness; addictive behaviors; low self-esteem; inability to let go of past situations or people no longer in your life; dissociation and multiple personality disorder; obesity or unexplained weight gain; abusive behaviors; absence of dream recall; recurring dreams of locations from earlier life, or of a self separate from your present self.

Some people try to fill this “hole” with relationships, addictions, success, or any number of distractions, but the truth is that the nagging sense of emptiness never goes away.

So how do we address this common malaise that shamans diagnosed so precisely millennia ago?

And how can we use this potent practice to bring greater awakening, creativity and meaning into our lives, even if we’re not suffering from a physical or emotional symptom?

One method to address soul loss, soul retrieval, refers to a shamanic operation in which the practitioner makes a journey on behalf of a client to locate lost aspects of soul, brings them back, and transfers them to the client’s body, often by blowing them into energy centers such as the heart and the crown of the head.

Soul recovery, by contrast, is a broader, gentler and mutually empowering approach in which we help each other become shamans of our own souls and healers of our own lives. It does not depend on a shaman to do the work for you.

In soul recovery, you ultimately become the shaman of your own soul.

Dreams are a Gateway

The practice of soul recovery is, in no small part, a process of dream recovery. Many of us in modern society are suffering from a protracted dream drought. From an indigenous perspective, this is a very serious condition.

Traditional Iroquois say that if we have lost our dreams, it is because we have lost a vital part of our soul — the beautiful dreamer who went missing in early life.

When we remember dreams, we may find that they show us where our missing parts have gone, opening portals for shamanic journeys we can take in order to reclaim the energy and imagination of our younger selves.

What can we offer someone who does not have a dream? Sometimes we can help them to call back an “old” dream from childhood, or a life memory from that time, as the portal for a soul recovery journey.

In the Soul Recovery Training with renowned dream shaman Robert Moss, we’ll explore many ways to break a dream drought and we’ll travel, in group shamanic journeys, to places where we can reclaim multiple aspects of our energy and identity.

We’ll also discver how to grow a dream for someone in need of a dream through a Vision Transfer technique.

In this powerful training, you’ll be encouraged to bring back your magical child. You’ll understand how, as a shamanic dreamer, you can travel across time and play guide and mentor for a younger self who may desperately need help in her own Now time.

You’ll call in your animal spirits, one of the fastest ways to raise vital energy and discern the natural path of your energies.

You’ll be invited to participate in ancestral healing — to release heavy energy of the deceased and multigenerational patterns of addiction and dysfunction.

You’ll find yourself engaged in cultural soul recovery, bringing back knowledge from the wise ancestors of your spiritual, as well as biological, kin.

Soul recovery also becomes easier when we know we are safe and protected within the nurturing energy of a family of kindred spirits. A deeply nourishing and comforting feature of Robert’s course is that you will almost immediately find yourself deeply at home in the best of all intentional families: a heart-centered community that will support your life journey.

By creating true community, and traveling together on group shamanic journeys to places of healing and guidance in the larger reality — including our Lands of Lost Girls and Boys — we help each other to move beyond fear, to open the space for soul recovery, and to celebrate the return of vital aspects of ourselves.

Remembering Your Essential Self

The Soul Recovery Training is about more than recovering lost soul. It’s ultimately about soul remembering: reclaiming the essential things you knew on the level of soul and spirit before you came into your present body. It’s about growing soul.

You’ll be invited to go all the way to spiritual enthronement, which is what happens when you’re ready to welcome your Higher Self to take up residence in your body and in your life.

Are you ready to call down the radiance of your Goddess or angelic self and let that light shine through all your days?

You’ll find this program exciting and mind-expanding on both intellectual and experiential levels as you draw on ancient wisdom traditions, mythology, cross-cultural shamanic practices, and Mystery traditions.

You’ll discover how to journey, with the aid of your imagination, “beyond the veil” for healing, guidance and initiation — into a way of living that’s more energized, creative and lively.

When you “re-ensoul” yourself in this way, you connect with a larger field of energy as well as with beings who can help guide your path, ranging from ancestors to guardian animal spirits to your higher Self.

Opening to the practice of soul recovery can turn your nights into a time for transformation, healing and receiving valuable guidance.

The Value of an Expert Guide

During The Soul Recovery Training, you’ll have a chance to explore the core principles and practices for soul recovery directly from Robert Moss, the bestselling author of close to a dozen books on dreaming, shamanism and the imagination as means to enhance and transform the quality of our lives.

Robert Moss is the creator of Active Dreaming, an original method of dreamwork and healing through the imagination, which synthesizes ancient shamanic practices with modern dream science and numerous spiritual disciplines.

Robert has inspired hundreds of thousands around the world with his books and workshops during a lifetime of teaching.

As a wise elder, Robert Moss can show you how to use time-tested principles and practices of shamanic dream journeying and use states of the imagination to access multidimensional states of consciousness that allow you to journey into the past for deep healing.

Robert Moss also has an uncanny way of helping you shift your core beliefs and self-conceptions to see the bigger story of your life. And Robert Moss uses story as a teaching tool — one of the most enjoyable aspects of his teaching, according to his students.

Robert Moss was initiated early into the life of a modern-day shaman with his near-death experiences as a child, which provided him with early experiences in other realms. Some of his capacities also derive from his early learnings from native aborigines in his native Australia. This awakening led to a lifetime committed to mastering Dreamtime (which includes both nighttime and “waking” reality) and sharing what Robert Moss’s learned.

Robert Moss’s since traveled the world sharing his teachings as an independent scholar. His dozen books on dreaming, shamanism and imagination have been heralded as essential reading for those on this path.

Robert Moss was called to his path as a dream teacher and soul healer by his visionary encounters with the ancient Native American shaman he calls Island Woman. She reminded him that the most important thing to know about dreams is that they reveal the secret wishes of the soul, and that the responsibility of decent people in a decent society is to gather round the dreamer and help her recognize what the soul wants — and then take action to honor those secret wishes.

In this profound 7-part virtual training, you’ll:

• Open a deeper connection with your dreams and the powers that are seeking you in dreams
• Receive practical guidance on energetic cleansing and protection
• Discover how to journey to a place of healing with the help of the animal doctors
• Reclaim vital energy by bringing back parts of yourself that went missing because of pain or grief or trauma in your earlier life
• Develop a personal set of vibrant, living symbols
• Journey across time to younger selves who need help and support in their own Now time
• Learn the key principles to reopen your connection with your Higher Self
• Find your own power songs and share them with others
• Become a “word doctor” who can help others to heal by offering them the right stories
• Meet the Soul of your Soul on the highest level accessible to you now
• Celebrate and entertain your magical child and call in your creative spirit

The Soul Recovery Training, like all of Robert Moss’s work, follows a principle stated beautifully by the philosopher Plotinus:

There are parts of what it most concerns you to know which I cannot describe to you; you must come with me and see for yourselves. The vision is for the one who will see it.

This principle perfectly describes the way Robert Moss teaches. He opens doorways to direct experience of other realms, and to ways in which we can see and remember who we truly are, where we came from, and what our greatest purpose is — both in this life and beyond.

More than anything, The Soul Recovery Training will illuminate a paradigm shift in how you relate to spiritual growth — expanding your understanding of how to open the portal between worlds as a way of gaining healing, spiritual awareness, and the courage to live as your full, authentic self.

What You’ll Discover in The Soul Recovery Training

During this 7-part transformational program, Robert Moss will guide you through the fundamental insights, skills and practices you’ll need to recover the missing pieces of your soul to create and experience a more creative, lively and passionate life.

Each teaching session will build upon the next so that you’ll develop a complete, holistic understanding of the practices, tools and principles to develop advanced shamanic practices and dreaming skills for soul recovery.

Module 1: Growing Your Soul Tree

We’ll start by discussing the causes and symptoms of soul loss. We’ll open a space for soul recovery through spiritual cleansing, invoking spirit helpers, and by finding the songs and stories and poetic enchantment that call soul back to the body.

We’ll learn a fun, fast way to share dreams and life stories that is mutually empowering and can make us shamans of the breakfast table. We’ll practice shamanic journeying and grow a Dream Tree — a tree of vision — we can visit again and again and use as the portal for many journeys to worlds of soul and imagination. We’ll discover how to break a dream drought and how to present our life issues to a sacred guide and healer in the night through dream incubation.

You’ll receive from this module:

• A deeper connection with your dreams and the powers that are seeking you in dreams
• A power place that will never fail you — your Soul Tree or Dream Tree
• Songs and stories to call soul back home
• Practical guidance on energetic cleansing and protection
• Soul-affirming everyday practices for sharing dreams and life stories
• Ways to put your life questions to your dreams and the world around you

Module 2: Reclaiming Your Animal Spirits

When shamans embark on soul travel and soul healing, they operate under the protection and guidance of animal guardians. Forging a close relationship with one or more power animals is invaluable in maintaining healthy boundaries and defending psychic space. A conscious connection with the animal guardians shows us how to follow the natural paths of our energy. A strong working connection with the animal powers brings the ability to shapeshift the energy body and project energy forms that can operate at a distance from the physical body. Our ancestors believed that we are born with a connection with a particular totem animal. On a shamanic path, you may develop connections with many animal spirits.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• How animals that have figured in your life or your dreams can become shamanic allies
• How to journey to a place of healing with the help of the animal doctors
• How to let your animal spirits raise your vitality, show you the natural path of your energies, and heighten your instinct, intuition and psychic protection in daily life
• What you can apply from the natural habits and the lore surrounding your power animals, and how to feed and nurture their energy in your life

Module 3: Bringing Home Your Magical Child

You are now ready to make a shamanic journey to meet younger aspects of yourself who checked out of your life when the world seemed too hard or indifferent, and to support others as they make their own journeys. You may be astonished to find that a child self of you has been held safe all these years in a different dimension, like the Land of Lost Boys in Peter Pan — or has been hiding out in an old place. We’ll travel together to an extraordinary location in non-ordinary reality where you will have access to many aspects of yourself, and their gifts.

You may discover that you are also a time traveler and can journey to a younger self in her own Now time. As a voice in her mind, you can provide the encouragement and counsel she may need at a time of unbearable pain or challenge. You can be the friend and protector she lacked when her need was great. From this can flow tremendous healing for both of you, for you in your present time and for her in her own time.

In this module, you’ll be encouraged to:

• Open and follow the path to your magical child
• Use your personal dreams and life memories as portals for soul recovery
• Participate in a group shamanic journey to a special place where you can encounter and reclaim multiple aspects of yourself and their gifts
• Reclaim vital energy by bringing back parts of yourself that went missing because of pain or grief or trauma in your earlier life
• Journey across time to younger selves who need help and support in their own Now time

Module 4: Soul Journeying Through the Energy Centers

A self-scan of the energy centers is a wonderful tool for self-diagnosis. Journeying through the energy centers with the help of guided meditation and shamanic drumming, facilitates the deep shift in consciousness that is required for accurate self-diagnosis and takes us far beyond diagnosis into realms of healing and empowerment. The journey opens gateways for soul recovery and release from life blockages. It can raise tremendous life force and channels the movement of energy into harmonious, unrestricted flow.

In a series of 7 short journeys, you’ll:

• Create your personal energy chart and living “totem pole”
• Connect more deeply with animal guardians and discover where they want to live in your body and assist in healing and empowerment
• Develop a personal set of vibrant, living symbols
• Open your throat chakra so you can speak your truth and be heard
• Release your inner creator in spontaneous drawing from your journeys
• Construct a map you can use for further journeys for empowerment and soul healing

Module 5: Singing Soul Back Home

In Celtic tradition, you can sing the soul back home. Gwydion, the shapeshifting shaman-poet of the Mabinogion, sings a lost soul down out of a tree by chanting a poem he composes. Guarani shamans perform soul healing by giving you the right words. When a shaman is talking to you, they say, he or she is giving you soul. Their words are soul, and the Guarani actually have a term, ayyu, that means “word soul.” This comes alive in you when your heart is touched, and the magic words enter you and change you.

We can learn to be soul singers and word doctors for each other. We can learn to grow a dream — a healing image, a soul story, a song that calls back soul — for someone who does not have a dream.

In the class you will be invited to learn the arts of dreamgrowing, story swapping and poetic enchantment for the benefit of others. You’ll learn Robert Moss’s powerful and original Vision Transfer technique, which has brought fire and spirit to many. You’ll rejoice when you see it working in the life of someone you’ve been concerned about through the brightness of returning soul shining in their eyes.

In this module, you’ll discover how to:

• Help others connect with the animal spirits
• Grow a dream for someone in need of a dream
• Guide others to places of healing and empowerment in non-ordinary reality
• Become a “word doctor” who can help others to heal by offering them the right stories
• Find your own power songs and share them with others

Module 6: Spiritual Enthronement

Of all the guides and mentors that may become available to us in a lifetime, the most important is a friend of the soul that will never lie to us and will never judge us. It is the Higher Self, which the Sufis call, beautifully, the soul of the soul. Ultimately we can only make peace between the many aspects of ourselves by opening a direct and conscious connection with the Self on a higher level — the Self that is no stranger.

When we have opened a space in ourselves for healing and transformation, it is sometimes possible to bring through an aspect of the Higher Self that we have not previously embodied in this life experience. This goes beyond soul recovery or soul retrieval. It can be called spiritual enthronement: the enthroning of a larger spiritual presence in the body and personality of the receiver.

What is enthroned is in no way alien to you; it is an aspect of your own deeper and fuller identity. This may bring the memory of many life journeys, and of the character and structure of the multidimensional self. It may be perceived as an angelic being, or as a deity or goddess. Fusion with an aspect of the Higher Self produces a quantum leap in the evolution of individual consciousness, and brings through radiant energy and Light. This class will be an extraordinary journey.

You’ll be invited to:

• Look in the mirror of the Sun Goddess
• Meet the Soul of your Soul on the highest level accessible to you now
• Practice deep soul remembering, reclaiming the knowledge of who you were before you came into your present body
• Connect with your soul family across space and time
• Embody knowledge and energy from your Higher Self in your present life — and keep it with you!

Module 7: Entertaining the Spirits Growing Soul on Your Spiral Path

When we are passionately engaged in a creative venture — love, art or something else that is really worthwhile — we draw support from other minds and other beings, seen and unseen. We draw greater support the greater the challenges involved in our venture. Great spirits love great challenges.

When we bring something fresh and new into the world, we entertain the spirits and delight our own creative genius, and our lives are infused with natural magic, confirmed by the play of synchronicity. Soul claps its hands and sings when you find what you love and make that your calling. You discover that the world can be your playground, not your prison — and the child and the creator in you come out to play with you.

In our final class, we’ll play wonderful new games together, and you’ll be inspired to:

• Nurture soul friends and become a true soul friend for others
• Dialog and play with your family of selves, in this life and beyond this life
• Celebrate and entertain your magical child and call in your creative spirit
• Walk an everyday path of magic by paying attention to signs, symbols and synchronicity
• Travel through life on a spiral path of conscious evolution
• Do what you love and let the world support you
