Every woman has a journey. Most journeys begin before death. Laurelynn Martin’s journey begins after death. Declared clinically dead during a routine surgical procedure that goes awry, Martin’s near-death experience sends her on a voyage beyond this world. She reluctantly returns from a loving Light called “home” to a life filled with chronic pain; thus begins her journey: “Searching for Home”. Her twelve-year journey of an “incurable condition” leads her to seek and study allopathic and alternative medicine. She experiments with acupuncture, meditation and many energy healing techniques. She travels to the Philippines for faith healing, receives information from spirit guides and finds love at the soul level. Seeking fullness of life in motherhood, she is undaunted by Western medicine’s high risk label. Undergirded by trust in the light and the love from the “other side,” her health is restored. She has a normal pregnancy and joyfully delivers a healthy son, Elijah. In her book, Martin poignantly demonstrates that medical miracles and spiritual gifts are possible. We discover how to search for the healing powers within ourselves, align with our true spiritual nature and call on guidance from beyond to overcome any obstacle in life. “Searching for Home” is a book not only for the 13 million Americans who have had a near-death experience, but is also for anyone who wants to heal from chronic illness, faces the fear of dying, grieves the loss of a loved one, or wants to reconnect to their true spiritual nature. Martin shows us that “healing comes from within and ‘home’ is not a place to go to, but an idea to be lived every moment of every day.”
