Soul Questionnaire
As someone who studies and practices holistic healing, I'm deeply interested in understanding the beliefs people have about souls. Your responses will help expand my research and enhance my approaches to energy therapy so I can better meet the needs of my clients. You'll be able to see and hear the results of this survey in my future blog posts, podcast episodes and hopefully one day a book on the subject.

This survey is anonymous, but if you choose to include your name and email it would allow me to follow up on your responses, should I require further info. Rest assured your name and contact details will be protected and kept confidential and any quotes used will be anonymised. The written answers are also optional, so you can contribute as much as you feel comfortable with.

For the purposes of this survey I'm defining the soul as: the spiritual essence or immaterial part of a human, which is regarded as being eternal. Even if you don't believe in the existence of the soul, you can still take part - I've included an N/A (not applicable) option just for you. This is a comprehensive survey that may take up to 10 minutes to complete.

Thank you for taking part in this survey! Your thoughtful input is much appreciated.

SECTION TWO: MULTIPLE SOULS, also known as soul dualism, is an accepted belief in the doctrine of many ancient traditions and contemporary cultures around the world. Soul dualism proposes that a person can be born with more than one soul and that souls can exit and enter the body at different stages, for a range of reasons. When multiple souls co-exist in harmony and work together towards a common goal, they can benefit a person by giving them a wider range of abilities, ways of thinking and a deeper understanding of the complexities of life. But when multiple souls conflict over leadership and have separate agendas, it can cause tension and chaos within a person.

SECTION THREE: SOUL MATES are thought to be two separate souls that have a strong romantic connection, close friendship or soul family connection and are extraordinarily linked, as if being cut from the same energetic cloth. They accept and know you on a deeper level than anyone else and you feel like you can be yourself around them. You may have the feeling you've known them in a previous life and that you're destined to be together in this lifetime too. Soul mate relationships are usually stable, supportive and nurturing, which makes them ideally suited for lifetime partnerships.
Do you believe it's possible for a person to have a soul mate? (Select all that apply.) *
Required
SECTION FOUR: TWIN SOULS, twin flames, or mirror souls. These are thought to be one soul that gets split into two bodies. One of the main characteristics of a twin soul relationship is that they are both challenging and healing and can cause personal awakening. This is due to the mirroring nature of a twin soul; they show you your deepest insecurities, fears, and shadows. But they also help you overcome them and vice versa—your twin flame will be equally affected by you. There's a common misconception that twin souls are supposed to "complete" each other—which can lead to an unhealthy dynamic between the two. Twin soul relationships can quickly become toxic, unlike a soul mate connection. It is thought that the purpose of your twin soul is to support and help you with your divine mission and purpose. Once this is completed, twin souls may chose to part ways.

SECTION FIVE: SOUL FRAGMENTS. Fragmentation of the soul can feel like an aspect of you has gotten lost or stuck in the past after a period of extreme stress, illness, accident, grief, abuse, neglect or trauma. You may feel that part of you is stuck at the age at which the trauma occurred. In many Shamanistic traditions, certain illnesses are a sign of soul fragmentation, thus in order to heal, one must call one's soul fragment back.
Do you believe it's possible for a person's soul to fragment? (Select all that apply.) *
Required
If you believe that you've experienced soul fragmentation, please give more information about how you became aware of your soul fragment, or fragments. Please include how this may have impacted on your life. (Optional)
Do you believe it's possible to heal a soul after it's been fragmented? *
SECTION SIX: PARASITIC ENTITIES. It's possible that humans are not at the top of the food chain after all. A parasitic entity is thought to be a spiritual being that can sense vulnerability and attach to a person during their life and drain their vital force energy, with or without them knowing.
Do you believe in the existence of parasitic entities? (Select all that apply.) *
Required
If you believe that you've experienced a parasitic entity attachment, please give more information about how you became aware of the entity. Please include: the age you were when it attached, how long it remained, and any changes in your health and wellbeing you noticed during it's occupation and how it entered and exited. (Optional)
SECTION SEVEN: NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCES. This is when a dying person's soul exits their body and witnesses events from a perspective outside of their body. Sometimes the soul can travel through a tunnel of light and be greeted by spiritual beings who impart wisdom before sending the soul back to re-enter the body. When the dying/dead person is revived, they often report being healed from their illness, or a belief that they can be healed, or that the wisdom they were shown while 'out of body' has changed their perception of reality.
Do you believe in the phenomenon of near death experiences? (Select all that apply.) *
Required
If you believe you've had a near death experience, please give more information about why you believe that happened to you. Please include how your experience might have changed the way you perceive your reality. (Optional)
SECTION EIGHT: END OF LIFE EXPERIENCES. These are dreams or premonitions of dying prematurely, or coming close to death, which come to pass as predicted. These type of experiences can be had by anyone at any phase of life. End of life experiences also describe the dreams and visions of those who are dying, who sense deceased loved ones, angels or spirits coming to comfort and guide them through the dying process.

SECTION TEN: SOUL CONTRACTS. A soul contract is thought to be an agenda, mission, lesson, or task(s) which a soul agrees to complete during its next physical incarnation. A contracts function is to help the soul assigned to it balance their karma, learn and mature, and it also gives their life a sense of purpose. An indication that you might have a soul contract could be feeling a strong pull towards: a certain path or vocation, clearing ancestral trauma, serving humanity, or a yearning to achieve personal growth.

SECTION TWELVE: STARSEEDS are thought to be advanced spiritual beings from another planet or dimension who have come to Earth to help humanity heal, evolve and become more spiritually conscious. Starseeds are typically drawn to the star system they are from and can often feel a longing to be somewhere more home-like. After incarnating here, it may take a while for Starseeds to adjust to life on Earth because of its heavier density, frequency and its environmental, cultural and technological differences.

SECTION THIRTEEN: SPIRITUAL HEALTH AND WELLBEING. Modern research is rediscovering what the wise ones already knew thousands of years ago - that people are more than just chemistry and mechanics. We also consist of a subtle and consciousness energy force that animates and sustains our physical bodies. It appears that the quantity and the quality (or coherency) of that subtle energy in our system has a direct impact on our physical and mental health. In science old and new it's believed that we can heal our bodies and minds by nourishing and nurturing our souls.
Do you believe that like your body and mind your soul requires nourishing and nurturing? *
How often do you attend to the health and wellbeing of your soul? *
What are the ways in which you attend to the health and wellbeing of your soul? (Select all that apply.) *
Required
SECTION FOURTEEN: SOUL THERPY. New research points to the biofield being the soul, or at least an interface with the soul. Biofield is short for 'biological electromagnetic energy field', and every living thing has one. The biofield is made from both physical and subtle energy, which is also called vital force energy, prana or chi. It appears the biofield holds the record of a person's life history, their ancestry and their past lives, as well as containing the 'blueprint' for their physical body. By tuning into the frequencies of the biofield it's possible to 'read' it and locate areas of dissonance or chaos where trauma has occurred and transform or heal it.
Vanessa is adept at reading and interpreting biofield information and her skills at releasing and transforming energies continues to grow. Through her unique fusion of modalities she has helped hundreds of clients resolve physical, mental and spiritual issues. Would you be interested in supporting your spiritual health and wellbeing and personal development by doing an energy therapy session (or course of sessions) with Vanessa? *
