Flying in the Face of Grief: The Ever Being of Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780473727079)

When seventeen-years old Tim crashes his car at the turn of the millennium, his younger sister, Laura is inconsolable. Their mother, Annette, is also devastated, but unlike Laura she struggles to accept this is the end of Tim's life; especially when whispered voices in her ears encourage her to remember - but remember what?

Beginning in the small harbourside town of Lyttelton in the South Island of New Zealand, serendipitous encounters lead Annette to the universal truths of ancient wise masters, imparted through a gifted channel in her city. Excited to learn about soul agreements and discover that life is never ending, it is one thing to have knowledge but quite another to actually live it - she has much inner work to do if she wishes to sustain her otherworldly relationship with Tim.

The perfect protagonist arrives in the form of German world cruiser, Manny. During the course of six years sailing around South Pacific islands, he challenges every inauthentic part of Annette, who has now reinvented herself as the adventuress Corky; except he never calls her by that name

Stripped of former beliefs, Annette enters the dark night of the soul. It's a terrifying time of uncertainty and yet, she must make the leap of faith that will carry her into an entirely different way of living in the world - one that is heart centred. There is one tiny snag; the aching pain in her heart

Back in her hometown, once again at the feet of ascended masters, she heals her heart through their wisdom, coupled with energy healing. It's a joyful time as her heart opens and expands and, as her level of consciousness rises, she once again communes with Tim. She attracts the attention of a large collective of souls who wish their story of suicide to be told from a spiritual perspective. Another collective ask her to write about catalytic earth events such as the earthquakes that toppled her city of Christchurch in 2011.

Hugely insightful and helpful to those yearning to connect with loved ones in the afterlife. And heartwarmingly comforting knowing there is no death, but the continuation of life. Especially during this time of change on Earth when a great number of souls, having fulfilled their soul agreements, are returning to their state of pure consciousness.

ANNWYN and Tim's message means that untapped gifts held within grief

can now be appreciated and utilised as tools of transformation,

allowing the bereft to not just survive, but thrive!
