Lost Soul, Wise Soul by Karen Joy

How Challenging Past Lives Shape Our Future

Drawing on her most compelling client cases, author Karen Joy shows you the natural arc of a soul’s journey over many lifetimes—including violent or negative ones—until we finally come back to the light. This book reveals how souls begin, how they enter lives on earth, and how, from experiencing a diverse range of lives, they become wiser and happier.

Previously published by Llewellyn Worldwide, the paperback was relaunched by MediaLuna in 2025. You will find the eBook, paper back on Amazon.com and Amazon.com.au.

The audio book is available on audible and other audio platforms. If you are coming to Maleny, Queensland (Karen’s home town), Rosetta Books and Nexus has plenty of paperback copies available. Other booksellers should have it or be able to get it. If you have any problems obtaining a paperback copy, please contact Karen via the Contact Page on this website to arrange purchase.

Past Life Books Reviews

Praise for Lost Soul, Wise Soul by Karen Joy

"Gives new info that former LBL books did not"

Highly recommended, good stories and lessons, well structured. Karen's book truly contains some disturbing information about how the spiritual sphere works. She reveals truths that former LBL books, including especially those of Dr. Michael Newton, did not: as an LBL-junkie, I have read every single LBL book from the Newton Institute.

Finally, there are some LBL books on the market (this is the 2nd one, as I count), that deal with a NICHE topic within LBL (Pieter Elsen's book being the 1st, specializing on spiritual enlightenment/advaita, and LBL).

"Outstanding"

This book offers much hope for those of us lost in pain and suffering that it is indeed for a reason. It offers a balm for those who feel distraught over the possibility that this life is all there is. May it bring hope to many!

"Important addition to reincarnation literature"

Well-written book that places negative experiences and troubling lives in the context of the purpose of reincarnation--growing toward enlightenment. Offers valuable information about the development of the Soul and its journey. While learning that we have a troubling lifetime in our past may at first be upsetting, the explanation given here about the arc of the Soul's development is reassuring and inspiring. Includes many fascinating case studies. The information in this book is a valuable addition to our understanding of the Soul's development.

Praise for Other Lives, Other Realms by Karen Joy

"A very interesting, informative and well written book"

I'm a pragmatic person, having had to live a life based on facts, so this is an unusual subject for me. However because the author so eloquently illustrates her subject citing facts from both a multitude of individuals but interspersed with personal experience lends credence to her narrative. A very interesting, informative and well written book.

- Amazon customer

"Thought provoking and stimulating"

Karen’s choice of chapters, like Body Selection, reveal the practicality of her work making this a valuable journey of insight, not just a collection of experiences. While reading I strongly identified and released my own issues, and am wiser, more empathetic and more excited about my own spiritual journey than before.

- Amazon customer

"I highly recommend this book!"

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and found it hard to put down. The clients personal stories and experiences were fascinating; so much so that I was so intrigued and excited about what they had uncovered that I also had a past-life regression with Karen and just like the clients in the book, I was blown away by the experience and came away feeling very enlightened about my life and life in general. It was a life changing, learning experience for me and I will be forever grateful.
