Publisher's summary

Following in the footsteps of the success of The Completion Process, best-selling author and modern spiritual leader Teal Swan offers an in-depth exploration and understanding of loneliness. Drawing on her extraordinary healing technique, the Connection Process, Teal offers a way to experience connection once again.

Loneliness is reaching endemic proportions in our society, reflected by rising suicide rates and increased mental illness. Now, more than ever, we need to find a way to connect. Loneliness is a feeling of separation or isolation; it is not necessarily the same as the physical state of being alone. This book is for people who suffer from loneliness, the kind that cannot be solved by simply being around other people. Their aloneness is a deeply embedded pattern that is both negative and painful; it is often fueled by trauma, loss, addiction, grief, and a lack of self-esteem and insecurity.

In The Anatomy of Loneliness, Teal identifies the three pillars or qualities of loneliness: separation, shame, and fear, and goes on to share her revolutionary technique, the Connection Process, a form of intuitive journeying, usually involving two people, a "receiver" and a "journeyer". Through a series of exercises, each person experiences "walls" and "blockages"; as they move through the process, both participants face their fears, learning from these to reach a place of unconditional love and acceptance.

Beautiful and life changing

This book is a powerful compilation of Teal's teachings. It truly is life changing information. I cannot begin to describe the changes I have seen I'm my own life since I started implementing the techniques taught in this book.

This information allowed me to begin to love myself, and in turn, to love my life. I am grateful to have found such empowering information.

36!

What can only be described as unbelievable, Teal Swan has produced an, in my opinion, wonderfully written and executed book outlining how loneliness is manifested and transpires in each of us. How she has accomplished this insight at her age and without any stated professional education is beyond me. While I am a masters student at a late age this having much common experience behind me, Teal Swan, who is probably being jeered by professional Psychologists and therapists out of jealousy because of the wonderment of her poetry and writings. I know nothing of her spiritual healings and teaching but her uncanny gift for bluntly stating the obvious without getting into theoretical psychobabble is incredible!!
