CHARLESTON, W.Va., Jan. 28, 2009 — Author Ernie Vecchio is proud to introduce his new release, “The Soul’s Intent” (published by iUniverse – http://www.iuniverse.com), a self-improvement book designed to reveal his experiences, findings, and insights while treating individuals recovering from severe trauma.
Vecchio discovered during this intense work with trauma patients that when personality gets stripped away it offers a unique opportunity to rebuild a truer and authentic self. In most cases, Vecchio observed his patients establish identities that were more aligned with their heart’s desire and less motivated by ego concerns or external expectations. He calls this process mediating within or finding one’s place of compromise. The result becomes a more meaningful life and making choices that are purposeful and goal-oriented. Vecchio’s link to the soul’s guidance validates to his patients that they truly have an inner life. Piecing together this understanding ultimately created an image Vecchio calls their Innerscape. Viewing these images and life experiences from the soul’s (above) vantage point provided his patients with the means for self-discovery and healing. In the end, they developed a psychospiritual understanding of their lives, were living fully in the present, less troubled about the past, and felt a renewed curiosity for the future.
In a world where many are angry and afraid because they fear the unknown, Vecchio offers his readers reasons why fear exists in the human condition. There to warn us of outside or impending threat, many of us have lost the capacity to distinguish between what is imagined and what is real. The result is a hypersensitivity to the world around us. Vecchio suggests that we should not have to undergo severe trauma to wake up to our lives or what is most important – being who we were intended to be. “The Soul’s Intent” is that we get here – now.
