Soul Retrieval is the practice of bringing lost soul parts back to the client in order to make the client "whole" again.  Traumatic events from the past, be it childhood, infancy or even past lives, can cause soul loss.  Soul loss is when a part of ones soul goes into hiding to protect itself from perceived dangerous events.  

During this practice, the practitioner will journey on the clients behalf to their underworld or subconcious to reclaim the soul parts, discover any limiting belief or soul contract and bring back gifts to help integrate the new soul piece and new contract.
