Available in paperback for the first time: The Heart of the Shaman.

The Heart of the Shaman will take you on a journey into the sacred world of the shaman, through stories, dreams, and ancient rites.

In his latest book, Alberto Villoldo sets his focus on the dreaming and time-travel practices of the medicine men and women of the Andes and Amazon, whose wisdom radically changed his worldview. Villoldo shares some of their time-honored teachings that emphasize the sacred dream: an ephemeral, yet powerful vision that has the potential to guide us to our purpose and show us our place in the universe.

The practices in this book will help you forge a sacred dream for yourself. They will help you craft a destiny infused with courage, and driven by vision. You'll be invited to follow the footsteps of the luminous warrior and learn how to break out of the three nightmares surrounding love, death, and safety that have held you captive, and transform them into the experience of timeless freedom, known as the Primordial Light. This creative power exercised by shamans will lead you to create beauty and healing, and dream a new world into being.

The Heart of the Shaman is a straightforward, priceless guide to achieving balance and joy in our lives. Truly a must-read. -- Mark Hyman, M.D., #1 New York Times best-selling author
