Near-Death Experience Gives Therapist Glimpse of Alternate Realities Sonia Guadalupe shares her story and a guide for the body’s energy system in her new book
DETROIT, Mich. (Apr. 16, 2018) – In a frustrating and desperate time in her life, Sonia Guadalupe’s existence was about to end. On her way to work, Guadalupe’s car slid towards a tree and she heard a voice telling her it was “Time to go.”
In “Illuminated Universe: A View from the Source,” Guadalupe recalls her near-death experience, as well as the journey that followed.
“I was pulled out of my body, before my life was about to end,” Guadalupe said. “What followed was a life-altering journey into simultaneous realities, where time ceased to exist.”
A polarity therapist and reflexologist, Guadalupe shares her life-changing experience, as well as practices for discovering, aligning and transforming one’s energy awareness and well-being in her book. She provides readers with a greater understanding of her work and the function of the body’s energy system. “Ancient cultures have used this information for centuries,” Guadalupe said. “Modern society and our health care practices have been slower to catch on. The energy system is more than vital; it is what we are and what runs everything else.”

"Illuminated Universe: A View from The Source" by Sonia Guadalupe
Sonia Guadalupe reveals her experience with ‘The Source’ in new book
Author explores energy she expounds exists in everything in ‘Illuminated Universe’
In “Illuminated Universe: A View from The Source” (published by Balboa Press), author Sonia Guadalupe describes her encounter with “The Source,” through which she explains she received an illuminated perspective on “All That Is,” as well as the adventures that followed her re-entry into earthly life.
“I think this book will appeal to readers because it gives them the opportunity to go beyond what they believe they know and to understand themselves and their world in a way they may not have previously thought to or dared to,” says Guadalupe. “It’s a little book with a lot of information and a message for everyone who reads it.”
Guadalupe notes that through her experience she saw the spirit that exists within everything. Regardless of any reader’s particular religious leanings, she says the book is a message for all humanity. She adds, “Energy awareness is knowledge essential for getting ourselves out of the box and into the realm of possibility. With this knowledge we can create in new ways and build a reality which is more fitting to who we really are.”

KIRKUS REVIEW
In her debut book, a holistic therapy practitioner, reflexologist, and artist relates her story of a near-death experience and its resulting insights.
In January 2015, author Guadalupe, disheartened by difficulties in her professional and personal lives, asked herself, “Is anything I do any good at all? Does it even make a difference?” Just a few minutes later, her car spun out of control on the road, and she experienced a transformative encounter with “The Light” (which she also calls “Source” or “God”). She says that she came to realize, among other things, that people’s lives on Earth are just a small part of their existence. She also says that she heard a voice ask her, “Do you want to live?”; after she responded affirmatively, she found herself back in her car, with no indication that an accident ever happened. She says that she then went on to experience a sense of heightened awareness over the next several months, even sensing life in inanimate objects. However, she became depressed when she tried to reconcile her experience with her profession, but by exchanging therapy sessions with a colleague, she was able to better integrate her encounter into the rest of her life. Her realization that all life is sentient, and that everyone chooses their own life, informed by beliefs, attitudes, and decisions, made her accept her connection with the Source. Overall, Guadalupe presents complex ideas in an easily comprehensible manner. Her account of her near-death experience is engaging, but its true significance in the narrative is in how it affected her professional practice. As a result, readers who are merely looking for a thrilling, supernatural account may be disappointed. The book also includes a clear discussion of polarity therapy, a holistic healing technique based on the idea of energy flow within the body. The final chapter, “Alignment and Transformation,” reads like a self-help book, and as such, it provides invaluable practical advice on changing one’s viewpoint in order to effect positive change in one’s life.
A memoir that offers intriguing insights into how one’s decisions affect one’s body and mind.

Love This Book
"Love this book! Not because I've known the author for almost 39 years, but because her treatise on positive energy is spot on! Having been in the position of having to deal with a lot of negative experiences in my life, it's very difficult to simply hold your head high. Taking the time to reflect on those short instances of negativity, and dousing them with a healthy dose of positive energy is what's needed. This book will put you on that path.
Thanks for the great read Sonia! Hope there's a follow up......" - S. Gross
Illuminated Universe conveys an amazing experience and a whole lot more!
"Illuminated Universe conveys an amazing experience and a whole lot more! It describes an expansive "peek" behind the veil of what most consider "reality" to be. Illuminated Universe offers explanations to help understand the depths of our being and underlying "forces" that guide Life. The author uses information acquired during and after her phenomenal experience, along with her practical experience, to offer methods that can aid others in developing a more fulfilling life. It is a short but powerful read. Approach it with an open mind!" Karen D.

"Don't let the small size of this book fool you. You will want to take your time reading it to think things over. I found the author's personal story riveting. It was a great introduction on how one can help themselves make connections. The second half of the book has great ideas. I would not read this book once, it has things to ponder, to try, to reflect on and refer to." P. Opolsky
