Long before the birth of modern science, the secrets of life were revealed and preserved for future generations among a clan of wisdomkeepers hidden high in the mountains of the Peruvian Andes. Marcela Lobos reveals these ancient secrets and more in her book The Sacred Andean Codes. In an intimate sharing of her apprenticeship with the descendants of that clan—the Q’uero people of today—Lobos reveals how the direct experience of the Munay-Ki initiations can shape our perception of life’s challenges, while leading us into our deepest healing and highest dreams. Whether you’re an artist or an engineer, a homemaker or policy maker, this book is about you, your life, and every relationship that you’ll ever experience. Lobos’ compelling truths of earth wisdom linger in our hearts long after we read the pages of The Sacred Andean Codes, reminding us that we’re always more than the challenges that life brings to our doorstep. — Gregg Braden, New York Times best-selling author of The God Code and The Divine Matrix

Her work will help you go beyond self-help to encounter true spiritual awakening. — Susan Piver, New York Times best-selling author of The Buddhist Enneagram

In these changing times, Marcela’s book guides us like a potent ray of light to awaken and expand our consciousness and to transform heavy energies into love.
