SHAMAN ELIZABETH HERRERA is a healer whose life has been filled with miracles. She was raised in a Christian home but lost her faith in her early 20s. A decade later, Elizabeth discovered Native American spirituality (shamanism). After practicing shamanism for several years, she inadvertently began experiencing miracles for herself and others—which eventually led her back to God.
In 2010, she wrote a memoir, Shaman Stone Soup, which received glowing reviews. Tragically, after she finished the first draft, her mother was struck and killed by a car while riding a bike. However, a few days later, her mother’s spirit gave Elizabeth the greatest miracle of her life and changed the course of the book.
Her second book, Dreams of Dying, is due out January 7, 2014. Prior to writing Dreams of Dying, Elizabeth had a vivid dream where she was shown four pivotal scenes. The remainder of the story was divinely inspired, unfolding as she listened closely to her heart.
Elizabeth combines her shamanic practice with the teachings of A Course in Miracles. She offers shamanic healing and spiritual counseling as well as teaches shamanic journeying.

<p>FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES<br /><br />At barely nineteen, Angelica Donovan became one of the more successful winners of the T.V. show Our Next Super Model. The world assumed she was destined for a happy, fairy tale life as ‘Angel,’ the beautiful girl who was living the dream; sadly, that wasn’t to be the case. As the years passed, she flashed her million dollar smile to all her fans and fought to stay on top in a profession where you never knew who it was safe to trust while the fashion industry took big bites out of her heart and soul. And trust was a constant challenge for Angel due to the painful childhood secret she guarded as carefully as she did her heart. As a result, she never did find her true love on earth.<br /><br />When she wakes up ‘dead’ from a heart condition a month before her thirty-fifth birthday, Angel is at first relieved to find there is no death, just a change of state, like ice to water, and then she’s scared because her biggest and most important adventure is about to begin.<br /><br />Angelica is chosen to be an angel in training as a spirit guide for three souls on earth! Her assignment is to help two women to gain the courage and confidence to find, recognize and embrace the love that had eluded Angel in life. But her biggest challenge will be to save a very special little girl from the same evil experience that had poisoned Angel’s own earthly happiness and altered the course of her life.<br /><br />Will Angel be able to heal her own shattered soul in the process? And will the three souls she is guiding be able to recognize her, not as a ghostly threat, but as one of those ‘friends in high places’ we all have; the kind who often end up earning their wings.<br /><br /> </p>
