The Magic beyond Form – A Journey of Discovery

Author Silvia Hagen 1st edition, June 2023 published by Sunny Edition Print ISBN 978-3-9522942-9-1 eBook ISBN 978-3-9522942-4-6 English

A book about courage. The courage to look at things in life from different perspectives. To combine spirituality and science. To take a closer look at and fathom the collective consciousness that influences each individual, but also companies.

At the age of two and a half, a world breaks down for Silvia Hagen. Due to a tragic accident, she finds herself facing the ruins of her previous life. This planet is not for her. Pain, isolation and the feeling of not belonging here characterize her everyday life.

But then – at the age of 20 – she takes a decision and her whole life changes. She finds a way out of the victim role to more awareness and personal responsibility. This opens the way to her real calling in organizational and consciousness development.

This work takes everyone who is faced with supposedly unsolvable tasks in life, whether in the private or professional sphere, on a journey. It shakes awake and challenges to dare the leap into a new consciousness.

This book is a great inspiration for everyone that wishes to make the best of his life and potential. No matter where you are today, everything is possible.

On my Youtube channel you can find an interview (in German), a conversation about the making of the book and its contents.

The book can be purchased at any official bookstore – in English and in German.
