Energy healer and author Linda B. Riddle has released a new eBook, "From Loneliness to Reclaiming Joy," positioning it as a response to what health authorities have labeled a public health crisis. The guide arrives as a 2023 U.S. Surgeon General's Advisory declared loneliness and social disconnection an epidemic, linking them to increased risks of heart disease, depression, and cognitive decline. Riddle's work shifts the focus from external social solutions to internal, energetic realignment.
Riddle, with over 20 years of experience in emotional healing and energetic alignment, describes the guide as "a missing puzzle piece in the journey toward healing." She emphasizes that loneliness often manifests subtly, hidden behind busy schedules or high-achieving exteriors. The practices within the guide are designed to meet individuals where they are, offering what Riddle calls a gentle starting point for self-inquiry. A key component is a holistic self-assessment framework, accessible here, which helps users reflect on their emotional, physical, and spiritual states without judgment.
The guide's methodology is built on the principle that awareness precedes change. "When you can see what's really happening emotionally, physically, and spiritually, you can finally choose your next step with clarity instead of just coping," Riddle states. The content includes a series of body-mind-spirit practices aimed at immediate relief and sustainable transformation. These practices are categorized into grounding the body, reawakening mental clarity, using compassionate affirmations, calming the nervous system, and establishing a holistic daily rhythm.
Riddle explains that the physical body often stores the imprints of loneliness, such as tension in the shoulders, constriction in the throat, or heaviness in the chest. "The body keeps score," she notes. Her approach seeks to identify and release these energetic blockages. The eBook serves as an entry point to her broader work, with many readers subsequently booking a one-on-one Flourish Forward Consult, which can be scheduled here, for personalized energy-clearing sessions.
The guide is priced at $9, with a limited-time free access coupon code, JOY, valid through February 28, 2026. It is available for purchase here. Riddle clarifies that her role is not to "do" the healing but to facilitate a process guided by divine energy and the individual's own capacity. She positions this eBook as the beginning of a larger body of work focused on reclaiming self-worth and reawakening joy, with plans for additional guides and a full-length book. The release highlights a growing intersection between holistic wellness approaches and mainstream public health concerns, offering an alternative pathway for those seeking to address the root causes of disconnection.
