A must-read for everyone desiring to thrive but feeling stuck. In God's In A Box On My Dresser: An Inquiry Into The Human Capacity To Thrive, Dr. Luciana Passeri takes readers on her journey to the Peruvian Amazon Jungle as she struggles with God and religion while traversing childhood abandonment, abuse, and an eating disorder that almost took her life.


Passeri finds healing, hope, and a transformed relationship with God while living thirty days on the little island in the Amazon where she ingested ayahuasca, an ancient plant medicine that was administered by Shipibo Shamans. The snakes, caiman, a tarantula, and other jungle critters become some of her teachers as she delves into and heals memories.


Her memoir is a story of redemption as she cultivates the capacity to take full responsibility for the totality of her life and steps into her power and calls others to do the same. In God's In A Box On My Dresser: An Inquiry Into The Human Capacity To Thrive, you will discover a roadmap to clock your disempowering narratives, transform them, and experience the freedom to thrive--without the medicine or Shamans, but with the power of Passeri's own experience and healing words.
