Psychopomps & the Soul

Featuring a cross-cultural introduction to psychopomps, this book brings light to times of uncertainty and fear that often accompany the process of dying or its living corollary—the dark that comes from shame and the shadow parts of the self.

In Psychopomps and the Soul, psychotherapist Tiffany Lazic offers ancient wisdom to ease modern distress around grief and inner darkness. Whether you experience loss through physical death or psychological soul death caused by living inauthentically, psychopomps (soul guides) can provide a toolkit for navigating from unfamiliar liminal space back to peace.

Tiffany not only introduces you to psychopomps from cultures around the world, she also acts as a psychopomp herself, sharing personal reflections that illuminate key aspects of the journey out of the dark and back to self. She teaches how to be of service to someone experiencing a similar transition as well. With rituals, meditations, and ceremonies, this book offers tools to guide you through the most challenging times and difficult emotions to find strength and hope.
