Announcing Eric Hoffer Award Nomination. Coming Out of The Metaphysical Closet” has been nominated for the Eric Hoffer Award in the Non-Fiction Spiritual category.  

The Eric Hoffer Book Award was founded at the start of the 21st century (with permission from the Eric Hoffer Estate) to honor freethinking writers and independent books of exceptional merit, and since its inception, the Hoffer Award has grown to become one of the premiere international independent book awards. The commercial/political environment for today’s writers has all but crushed the circulation of ideas. It seems strange that in the Information Age, many books are blocked from wider circulation, and powerful writing is barred from publication or buried alive on the Internet. Furthermore, many of the top literary prizes will not consider independent books, choosing instead to become the marketing arms of large presses.

The “Hoffer” honored books are from small, academic, and micro presses, including self-published offerings. Throughout the centuries, writers such as Emily Dickinson, James Joyce, Walt Whitman, and Virginia Woolf have taken the path of self-publishing, rather than have their ideas forced into a corporate or sociopolitical mold. Today, small and academic presses struggle in this same environment. The Hoffer will continue to be a platform for and the champion of the independent voice. Winners of the Hoffer are given prizes, honors, and worldwide media exposure, as well as being covered in the US Review of Books.

In 2016, Lisa self-published “Journey of a Dream Master“ for two reasons:

Firstly, her illnesses were so grave at the time she believed she’d die with her stories still in her, and she did not want that. So, she wrote it for herself and her father, and if it reached anyone else…that was a bonus.
And secondly, to see if there was any interest in all what she had to say.

All the 5-star reviews from around the world, strong reviews by esteemed peers like Dr. Hank Wesselman, the countless enthusiastic private emails and heartfelt messages (with people posing with the book) from fans, clients, friends, family, peers, and strangers were an overwhelming affirmation that her work matters and she was right to publish it.

Lisa has mostly recovered (much to the astonishment of all the “white coats”) and is completing her expanded new book which is three book in one with many more stories, photos, teachings, and metaphysical offerings.

The original “Journey of a Dream Master” has been pulled from publication by Lisa. (If you bought one, it is a rare limited edition collector’s item!)

THE TRANSITIONING OF Dr. HANK WESSELMAN
A FOND FAREWELL TO THE CHIEF

Hank Wesselman


UPDATE: AUGUST 11, 2023, It is with a heavy heart that I share the bittersweet news that Jill Kuykendall left this world on August 10, 2023.

Here is the initial statement from the family:

August 10, 2023
Journal Entry by Cj Barfoot
Today, in the wee hours of the morning, our beloved Jill passed away into non ordinary reality, peacefully, from the comfort of her home. Friends, family, and caregivers were present and close by, yet unaware, as she chose to transition quietly and unobserved. Warm Aloha to all of you who have supported, loved, and witnessed her journey throughout all these years.
Blessings,  Erica, Cindy & Carol

It is with a heavy heart that I share the bittersweet news that Dr. Hank Wesselman left this world on Monday, February 15, 2021. Hank passed peacefully to the other side to be with his ancestors, with his wife Jill by his side. Here is the post that Jill made to announce the sad news:

“Today is the day. Hank passed this morning into the realm of his ancestors and other beloveds after releasing his final breath, his Ha. He was comfortable, no pain, no struggle. I was blessed to be bedside, to hold his hand, speak to him and kiss his forehead. The staff was kind and compassionate, had come to really love him and cared for me as well.

Your Love and Aloha were palpable in the room. I know he felt it and it brought him peace.

Mahalo – Thank You – from me for all you offered in these last few days and over the years in which we have enriched each others’ lives.

What a guy! What a soul! He was my beautiful Hank!” 

“Some Buddhist traditions teach that February 15 is the day when the Buddha achieved Parinirvana, or complete Nirvana, upon the death of his physical body. Hank would appreciate that.” ~ Jill

Decades ago a friend told me about Hank so I looked him up, bought his books and eventually became a student of his. My life changed the day Hank came into my awareness. Both he and his lovely wife Jill not only became my teachers and friends…they became my family. What a legacy he has left for all.

I have far too many stories about our wondrous experiences together to write about here. Plus, I cannot bring myself to write about them because I am still in complete shock. All these wonderful memories flood my mind and they overflow as tears down my cheeks.

I know that when we exhale our last breath our soul takes flight back to the other realms from whence we came. I find Chief Hank’s passing so very bittersweet. I know without a doubt we shall continue our friendship and our work (perhaps doing even more work not that he’s not limited by a body, time and space!)…but damn it, I’m gonna miss being able to see his sweet smiling face, hear his amused laughter at his own jokes, the mischievous twinkle in his eye when he was telling one of his amazing true tales and just to be able to give him a big bear hug and say, “I love you!” to him again. I wouldn’t be here today with Hank and Jill.

The LOVE that he had for his “Lady Jill” was so palpable that you could see and feel it radiating from him and between them. It didn’t need words although he always proclaimed his great love and respect for her (and she does the same). That kind of love doesn’t even need words. I can see auras. The energetic field and exchange of energy between these 2 was a dynamic sight to behold! They were so cute together and their amazing love story has always given me hope that I too will find a true love like that one day. Their love story is not over. It is simply in the next new phase. Jill and their 2 daughters, Anna and Erica, and family all have our love and support (which I know Hank appreciates).

People all over the world have been blessed by Chief Hank’s life, love, humor and work. We all will pick up the torch and carry on his good work in his honor and in loving memory. So, for now with a heavy yet hopeful heart, I’ll just say mahalo nui loa and a hui hou, my dear friend, beloved teacher and kupuna, Chief Hank. We shall meet again in the DreamTime! Aloha, Much Love & Light, Lisa
