Author Description

<b>Burnout -- How a Desert Lizard Restored My Faith</b> is Book 1 in the Burnout to Bliss series. It tells the story of an ordinary woman who experienced extreme burnout, aka dark night of the soul or existential crisis. The story begins with a murder that happened while she was lecturing. It relates all the ways the author sought relief - from self-medication with alcohol, drugs, and sex to psychics to counseling and psychiatry. Most importantly, it reveals how real healing began when the author camped with shamans in Mexico, with a culture vastly different from her own.
