The Bridge Between Two Worlds. A Shamans View of Schizophrenia & Acute Sensitivity. Available now as an Ebook

Before I found my feet on the contemporary shamans path I had what feels like another life. It was all about theatre, acting, performing, teaching etc. Between that life of theatre and the life of the shamans path I unraveled to a degree that I heard voices, felt incredibly ill, shaved my hair off, isolated to the point of deep depression and found myself looking deeply into the eye of madness. However underneath it all there was a message of guidance building but it was so deep in the subconscious I had no idea what was being called to be created.  This is what came from the rite of passage of madness that I walked through. This was the path to recovery.

Here is the introduction to the book and following is a forward from Anne Deveson

“Odette Nightsky has had the courage and sensitivity to present an alternative view of schizophrenia and of other psychotic illnesses. She believes that people with schizophrenia are deeply spiritually disturbed, and acutely sensitive to the world and the universe – around them. The healing pathway she suggests is one that helps people reclaim the ground of their being, and achieve harmony and balance within their lives. Illnesses like schizophrenia are mysterious – even for people like me who grew up wearing shoes of science and have since flown in all kinds of directions trying to understand what’s going on. What I like about Odette’s book, The Bridge Between Two Worlds, is that she isn’t proscriptive. She gently suggests how she sees psychotic experiences, and then allows the possibility of numbers of paths to healing, including the traditional ones of medication if that’s how people feel safest. Her approach is a responsible one”.
