An online course that will bridge the divide between your spiritual self and your living reality. This course will provide you with a perspective that may help you understand why our lives are often an emotional rollercoaster, and it will provide new insights that may help you overcome and to grow from those experiences.
Dr. Lindal has been a practicing clinical psychologist for over 40 years. He is the author of The Purpose: Your Soul’s Emotional Journey: Learning how to experience life through a different lens (2014). During the course of his career while working in the areas of individual psychotherapy, couples therapy, family therapy, group therapy, and in the application of regression techniques, such as age regression, past-life regression, life-between-lives regression and entity releasement therapy, Dr. Lindal has developed a theoretical approach to life that is based on spiritual and existential concepts, titled Soul Anchored Living.
In this course the teachings of Soul Anchored Living are introduced in the form of a ‘self-therapy’ format. The teachings are presented in a manner that should be readily understood and beneficial for members of the general public. Clinicians will find these teachings especially helpful, as these teachings provide them with tools that may be incorporated into their work for the benefit of their clients. First responders, veterans, motor vehicle accident victims and medical care personnel, who suffer as a consequence of workplace-related trauma will find this course helpful.
Why Soul Anchored Living?
In order to thrive during difficult times, it is helpful if you have attained a philosophy of life beforehand that provides you with an anchor and a toehold that allows you to pull yourself forward and out of the emotional distress you find yourself in.
Soul Anchored Living (SAL) teaches how this can be done. SAL is based on ‘evidence-based’ psychotherapeutic concepts central to the existential teachings of Logotherapy , and on ‘evidence-based’ techniques developed in Metacognitive Therapy. SAL is a synthesises of these psychotherapeutic approaches. SAL is also based on the teachings discussed in Jane Robert’s Seth Material and in Neale Donald Welsh’s Conversations with God. These teachings rest on the assumption that our consciousness survives bodily death, for which there is now exhaustive ‘empirical evidence’ and ‘evidence-based observation’.
Soul Anchored Living focuses on the age-old questions.
Why must I suffer?
What is the meaning of life?
What is the purpose for my existence?
Answers to these questions are rooted in consciousness, in our awareness of existence. Science has traditionally avoided this area of research and assumed without evidence that our existence is a random occurrence and that our lives have no deeper meaning beyond what meets the eye. Recently, however, with the advent of scientific discoveries in the areas of parapsychology, medicine, biology and physics, the frontiers of science have expanded and discovered interesting observations that demonstrate the far reaches of consciousness and the possible existence of an organizing omnipresent consciousness. An introduction to this research is presented in Module 3. SAL is also, in part, based on this research.
Soul Anchored Living helps individuals integrate the observation and the implication of the ‘survival of consciousness’ following bodily death, in so far as it relates to our purpose for existence and the discovery of meaning during our lifetimes.
Soul Anchored Living provides for a new psychotherapeutic paradigm for understanding the meaning of human existence. It provides an explanation for the emotional rollercoaster we all experience in life and directs us to the discovery of ‘meaning’ following painful experiences by bringing our metacognitions into focus, which allows us the opportunity to confront our dogmas, to analyse our morals and values, and to discover an attitude to life that will allow us to thrive more harmoniously.
THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
- Your consciousness extends beyond the confines of your physical body.
- Your consciousness is dimensional and expresses itself simultaneously throughout your lifetime at the level of your ego and at higher levels of consciousness outside our physical space/time dimension.
- Your consciousness is eternal, and all your memories survive bodily death.
- The main purpose for having a lifetime is to grow through emotional experiences which you do, in hindsight, through the discovery of ‘meaning’.
- You have designed your lifetime to be an emotional rollercoaster, in order to discover and to learn about your inner nature.
- You are the creator of your negative emotions, and you have a choice in how you respond to them when they are strong and overwhelming.
- You pull yourself forward (from outside space/time) by your soul’s consciousness to experience the specific adventures you, i.e. your ego, encounters on Earth.
- Soul Anchored Living helps you explore your metacognitive beliefs that may, unintentionally, be prolonging or worsening your symptoms of anxiety, depression, and anger.

“Dr. Lindal’s extraordinary course addresses some of the most puzzling concerns about existence and the nature of our reality. He explains and expands upon the works of spiritual teachers such as Jane Roberts (The Seth Material), Neale Donald Walsch (Conversations With God) and Victor Frankl (Logotherapy) in a way that makes it easy to understand, and guides you in applying the basic principles to your everyday life. For those with an open mind and a desire to seek truth, this course introduces a philosophy that can help you to become the person you were meant to be. It has been a liberating experience for me, and I highly recommend it to anyone who struggles with negative thoughts and emotions, or seeks an answer to the fundamental question of human existence: Why am I here?”
