2026 · New in 2026

Nine Paths to One

A Book of Remembering — a metaphysical novel

Nine women. One old agreement. A field that has been waiting. A metaphysical novel that holds the Sixty-Four — a circle of ordinary people facing extraordinary questions. Nine paths through the same essential one.

  • Twelve Transmissions

    Twelve lines from the book — one will catch the way the body knows water. Carry the one that returns for a second look.

  • Seven Deeper Transmissions

    The Threshold, What the Hand Remembers, the Name You Carry, the Forge, the Seam, the Witness, the Return.

  • Nine Tongues, One Refrain

    “Fundamental Peace is not the absence of pain — it is the transmutation of its energy into love and compassion.” Translated by nine grandmothers, sheikhas and elders across the novel.

  • The Stone for Today

    Nine stones, nine places, one sentence carved in a language older than Spanish — one was carved for a name not yet written down.

  • A Seven-Day Practice

    The Rooms walked as a week of contemplative practice — for solo readers, for circles, for facilitators.

"There is a kind of book that arrives at a person before they ask for it. This is one of those. If you are here, your nervous system has already read the line beneath the sentences."

Sister Songs · The 64

A Global Mantra Cycle — companion to Nine Paths to One

Sixty-four women, sixty-four mantras, sixty-four cultures, four kingdoms (animal, plant, mineral, human) singing humanity into the next era. A four-album mantra cycle (Albums IV–VII, now streaming) and an interactive cosmology mapping the Meta Pets archetypes onto real women, flowers, stones and cosmic animals.

  • The Wheel of the Year

    Four albums for four seasons, four directions, four elements — walked as a calendar or as oracle.

  • 64 Women · 64 Cultures

    Maya, Tibetan, Yoruba, Sami, Maori, Wixárika, Ainu, Sufi, Kabbalist, Druid — each carrying a mantra in her own language.

  • A Council of 256 Beings

    64 women, 64 cosmic animals (192 real creatures integrated), 64 Auroville flowers, 64 ancestral stones — all four kingdoms honored.

  • A Lineage of Lineages

    Sister work to Human Design, the Gene Keys and the Dream Arc — sixty-four as I Ching hexagrams, codons, yoginis around the Goddess.

Hypnotherapy: The Essential Guide
2025 · Book of the trilogy

Hypnotherapy: The Essential Guide

To Fundamental Peace and Conscious Realization

More than a manual — a mentor in book form. An integrative roadmap blending psychology, neuroscience and the wisdom traditions, from a practitioner's first induction script to the heights of conscious realization.

  • Trance as a gateway

    Harness the power of trance to access the subconscious, uncover root causes of pain, and release old fears and blockages.

  • Ericksonian storytelling

    Use metaphor, indirect suggestion and story as a precise instrument of transformation.

  • The neuroscience of peace

    Brainwaves, neuroplasticity and the somatic anchors of lasting change.

  • Spiritual integration

    Weave non-dual philosophy, contemplative practice and the wisdom traditions into the therapy room.

  • A mentor in book form

    From first principles to advanced practice — induction scripts, parts work, regression and the passage to Fundamental Peace.

"From the ancient wisdom of the Upanishads to the latest in trauma therapy, from one's first induction script to the profound heights of conscious realization — Gallardo leaves no stone unturned, yet remains grounded in compassion."
