Almost Disappearing: Reclaiming
the Territory of my Body

Stumbling with her clumsiness, the young woman desperately seeks her body,
the expression of her feelings, the flight of her grace. She had entered the world
of adolescence pushing herself with her mind. Controlling her actions seemed
to be the way that would shield her from a hostile world. In college she chooses
to become a performer, but finds herself unable to express her inner world.
Then the young woman realizes that she has lived most of her life almost disappearing.
The truth is named. She is anorexic.

This novel shares with our readers Corazón's journey through anorexia in fictional form. It is part of the Beloved Body Soul Collection.

"Almost Disappearing: Reclaiming the Territory of my Body" is a magical autobiography in which I share the story of how I healed from anorexia during my shamanic training in The ShamansDance Way," reveals Corazon Tierra.

The novel is a weave of narratives about the experiences of my childhood and adolescence that led to my condition as an anorexic young woman. Intertwined with these stories is another world: a universe of shamanic journeys, inner spaces of self-healing where art becomes a transformative force.

"The novel reveals how I discovered a way to heal anorexia during my healing process," adds the author. "I began to adapt the processes, awareness and tools I was learning from my teacher, Maria Mar, to address the specific issues that were coming up for me. That is how the Beloved BodySoul System was born."

As the reader journeys with me through this healing process she understands that anorexia is a disease of the soul, a hunger for a perfect world and a rage at not being able to erase the pain of that world. My healing process lead to the creation of my own path, Journey to my Center. For more information, please read my biography and my healing journey.
