Portals to the Vision Serpent cover

PORTALS TO THE VISION SERPENT

by Carla Woody

Available in trade paperback in North America, UK and Europe. The Kindle version is available in the UK, Europe, Japan, Brazil and India.

ISBN-13: 978-1-930192-03-4
Soft cover, 282 pages

Preston Johns Cadell is tormented. He attempts to outrun discontent and the void in his heart. His mother is hardly around. His father's origins and disappearance are shrouded by family secrets. His sole remembrance of his father is flying through the stars nestled in his arms.

Any comfort Preston derives is from an unseen advisor who teaches him of the invisible world. Now he is coming of age. Memories arrive from long ago when a brown-skinned woman cared for him. But she, too, vanished. Finding the buried remains of his father's altar, Preston must answer the draw to his destiny, to discover his lineage — even though he has no idea how or where it will lead him.

Portals to the Vision Serpent is a Hero's Journey into the realms of shamanism and the Maya world. Interwoven are the struggles of indigenous peoples to preserve their way of life and tragedies that often come from misunderstandings. Through a family saga of dark wounds and mystery, spiritual healing unfolds.

Editorial Reviews

Standing Stark cover

STANDING STARK:
The Willingness to Engage

by Carla Woody

The gift we have been given is the one called possibility,
whose intent offers to tie all together,
creating strands of a whole life rather than a disintegrated one.

Currently available in trade paperback in North America. The Kindle version is available in the UK, Europe, Japan, Brazil and India. Watch for wider distribution soon.

ISBN 1-930192-02-9
Soft cover, 204 pages $14.95

With these words, Carla Woody sets the stage in this ground-breaking guide toward leading a rich, authentic life. This remarkable book not only offers means to engage with the more confounding encounters and paradoxical nature of the spiritual path, it suggests profound questions that accelerate growth.

Poetically relating mesmerizing stories and teachings, Woody incorporates her own decade-long, esoteric adventures with mystic Don Américo Yábar, her intensive work with others and the learning gained through the balance of community and solitude.

Navigating through such diverse geography as energy awareness, bliss states, dark nights and the challenges of everyday living, she presents ways to integrate the compassion of the heart with the clarity of a mind made wise. In this honest, explicit accounting, the committed spiritual traveler is empowered to develop their own capabilities toward nurturing a direct relationship with the Core Self -- and the Divine Presence that permeates everything.

Reader Reviews

The Core Self is the heart of every true religion and spiritual practice. Carla Woody teaches us to soar to new heights of consciousness and open magical portals into our Core Selves. Miraculously, she also addresses terrorism, environmental destruction, medical dilemmas, and other modern issues that distract so many of us from following our true paths. Standing Stark is a magnificent adventure, as well as a fascinating read!
