Book Description

August 1, 1996
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.”

About the Author

Laurelynn G. Martin, a full time writer and inspirational speaker, had a near-death experience in 1982 during a routine surgical procedure that left her clinically dead. This at age 21 at the height of a promising tennis career. Her near-death experience, along with the twelve year healing process, is the subject of her book, “Searching for Home”. She is an active member of the International Association of Near Death Studies (IANDS) and is on the IANDS Connecticut speaker’s bureau. She recently spoke at the IANDS international conference and has appeared on numerous radio and TV shows. She was one of three near-death experiencers portrayed in McCall’s Magazine.

Ms. Martin received a Master of Science degree in Physical Therapy from the University of Rhode Island. She also lectures about alternative healing, psychic surgery and the near-death experience and health care. She currently lives in Connecticut with her husband and son and has started a company, Light Endeavors, with the mission to “support all beings as we journey home. We are committed to the highest vibrational light and invite divine unity consciousness to fill our every endeavor.”

5.0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking, possibly life changing!, April 21, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Searching for Home: A Personal Journey of Transformation and Healing After a Near-Death Experience (Paperback)
I started reading Laurelynn Martin's book with a curious, but basically scientific frame of mind. I wanted to know the what, how, and why this incredible experience happens to people. But by the time I was half-way through I realized that none of those questions were important to me anymore. What was important, what the book conveyed to me, was that no matter how separated we sometimes feel from each other by race, religion, social standing or ethnic background, we are all interwoven, with our own paths, that will ultimately lead us all to a place that we will gladly call home. Mrs. Martin's writing style put across feelings and emotions that until now, I thought were too difficult for words. This book has a beautiful power that could set anyone into motion to embark upon their own spiritual journey. An excellent and truthful book with a loving message for every reader

5.0 out of 5 stars An update from the author, October 20, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Searching for Home: A Personal Journey of Transformation and Healing After a Near-Death Experience (Paperback)
Searching For Home continues to be sold to interested parties. However, finding those interested parties continues to be a challenge. The process of marketing a book and letting people know about its existence is no easy task. I believe this book is reaching people who it is supposed to. My publisher is well intentioned and a very dear man. However, with a small publishing and marketing budget, consumer awareness is low. Yet, the consumers who know about this book send rave reviews. I suppose every author's dream (and publisher's dream, too!) is to have a best selling book. My dream was to write down my personal story and share it with others. I've done that, and hope by sharing my story, others will be inspired to share their story too. Sending Blessings. Laurelynn Martin, author
