With the Sun in My Eyes: The story of Char Sundust, psychic healer and shamanic practitioner Book

This unusual book illustrates the life and wisdom of the Northwest healer and psychic, Char Sundust. Mikaya Heart was asked to write this book by Char, on the instructions of the spirits who are always at Char's side, offering invaluable advice. For two years, Mikaya followed Char around everywhere she went, re-visiting her childhood haunts and delving into her shamanic healing work. A skilled interviewer, she spent many hours with Char's family, friends, students and clients, gleaning in-depth information, then spinning this into a gripping narrative.

Char was trained in Native American shamanic healing methods from the age of fifteen, and as a young adult she quickly began to heal others, radiating love and light. Now she does psychic readings to help people access the full potential of life; she does house blessings, which involve cleansing the energy of a space, removing stuck energy that might be manifesting in the form of ghosts, poltergeists, or simply unpleasant vibrations; and she does soul retrievals, which are about re-uniting an individual with parts of herself that she may have lost as a result of traumas on life's journey. Her greatest gift is being able to recognize and shift old, outmoded energy that is attached to people, things or places. Mikaya has been able to describe in detail the extraordinary healing that occurs in Char's work, with vivid concrete details of the different realms, entities, power animals, energies, archetypes and spirits that Char relates to on a daily basis.

This is not only a delightful adventure story, it is also educational, chronicling in detail how healing of all kinds can be addressed on levels other than the physical. Char is a particularly gifted psychic, but all human beings can access a sense of the vastness of all-that-is, to a greater or lesser degree, and can choose to work with that sense, fine-tuning it to specifics. Everything that we see as solid was in the form of pure energy before it became visible to our physical eyes. This book explains, in clear detail, how one healer learned to work in the arena of energy to change what is being manifested. Others can follow in her path, or make their own. Even for those who choose not to be healers, the understanding that the world of physical form is only a tiny portion of what is occurring around us is profoundly life-enhancing. You cannot read this book without realizing that the potential of being human is huge, and the ability to choose joy lies within us all.
