A handbook for spiritual awakening and healing. From our vantage point in the realm of Spirit, difficult and life-altering events provide the very stepping stones we need in order to reach our goals for a human incarnation. But, why does it have to be so painful? And what do our struggles have to do with spiritual awakening? Heroic Compassion breaks open the mysteries of pre-life planning, the purpose behind your personal challenges, and the magnitude of your own capacity for profound spiritual growth. It unpacks the topics of reincarnation, life lessons, karma, and why we don't remember our life purpose while we're here on earth. ZenDoe Linda Frank's experiences as a spirit medium communicating with those who have passed on, combined with her grounding in traditional Zen practice provide a unique and powerful perspective on life that is both down to earth and vividly clarifying. You will not only understand the why of suffering, but you will also receive the tools and the encouragement to approach your own woundedness with insight and tenderness. If you are ready to embark on a life-changing journey of healing and spiritual evolution, begin by discovering your own Heroic Compassion.
