Love and Above: A journey into shamanism, coma and joy

What happens when you are in a coma for a month? Where does the soul travel? How do you come back? And may you become when you return with other-worldly secrets?

Award winning journalist and international author Sarah Bullen and her filmmaker husband were the hottest golden couple, with thriving careers and two young children. Then Llewellyn realised that what he'd thought were entranced moments were in fact symptoms of a brain tumour. He pursues an African shamanic path to fight the cancer and the couple are catapulted into a strange, magical world of ritual and ceremony.

Alongside hospitals, surgery and treatments comes another wilder journey of spiritual searching. Then the impossible happens, Sarah too falls ill. While in a month long coma, Sarah travels through near-death and into other realms and worlds.

She comes back with an urgent message from beyond, and a spark to follow which becomes a roadmap to allow her to write a new life story. From African rituals to a Greek island of tantra, sex and celebration, Love and Above is filled with wild rapture and infinite possibility.
