Christi Eley has been sharing her Anam Cara “soul friend” rabbits for many years with people in her local community. She has visited many senior living facilities and has many stories to share! One very special encounter is shared in Adios – a personal memoir story of Christi visiting a retired Marine Colonel during his final days. It is a real life unfolding of Anam Cara “soul friend,” which in the Celtic Christianity tradition represented someone who would hold space for you, deeply listen and be a guide through life's transitions. 

In this memoir, Christi shares the experience that started off as a routine visit with someone who was nonresponsive and unfolded into a life changing experience. It is a story that needs to be told, so we can all experience an Anam Cara in our every day lives. There won't be a dry eye while reading it, seeing how the rabbits open doors to trusting, meaningful communication and souls connecting to create sacred moments.  

Our wish for you is that you can also create these heart to heart moments in your own life by connecting to an Anam Cara, which can be a person, animal, place or connection to spirit. We provide journaling exercises at the back of the memoir for reflection and discovery. We share beautiful pictures of the real life “soul friend” bunnies who were the visitors to the Colonel and inspirational quotes to serve as reminders for your own practice.  This is a unique opportunity to be still, listen and awaken your soul!
