Summary of Together Forever

Together Forever is a compassionate guide to healing, inner peace, and spiritual awakening. Drawing from her own profound experiences of loss, Anna Marie Enea, MS, RMT, offers practical tools and timeless wisdom to help readers move beyond suffering and discover who they truly are beyond the physical.

In Part One, Anna Marie shares her personal story of losing her son, Sal and the path she was guided to of deep acceptance rather than despair. That decision led to remarkable healing, lasting peace, and a profound spiritual connection that transformed her life.

In Part Two, Anna Marie shares her continuing connection with Sal through the many signs he sends. She teaches how you too can connect with your loved ones through ancient yogic teachings and her own direct experiences. Her stories invite readers to recognize that death is not an end, but a transition. Loves knows no death.

In Part Three, she provides practical tools for building resilience through meditation, acceptance, mindfulness, yoga, and modern science. Blending spirituality with neuroscience, she shows how acceptance and present-moment awareness can help us heal, grow stronger through adversity, and live with greater purpose.

Praise for Together Forever

Pam Grout, New York Times Best-Selling Author

This paradigm-shifting book offers us "fresh thoughts, fresh beliefs" about the most feared event of our lives and the lives of our loved ones. Anna Marie Enea gives us a blueprint for waking up, for discovering life beyond the physical, and for staying eternally connected to those on the other side of the veil.

Together Forever is brave and powerful and provides a clear roadmap to a realm unconceived in modern language and thinking. Anna Marie teaches us how to transform challenges and even tragedy into abundance, gratitude, and divine love. Through the practice of acceptance and presence, she has laid the foundation for us to walk a true bridge to the Divine.  Together Forever is a most important and life-changing read.

My friendship with Anna Marie began in Catholic high school.  Anna Marie was inspirational for me then, and more recently she catalyzed one of the most powerful changes in my life.  Over the years, my spiritual side had taken a back seat to my finance career. To rebalance my life, I attended several of Anna Marie’s yoga and meditation retreats in San Gemini, Italy.  A life-altering experience happened to me during one of our meditation sessions, and at that moment I became a true believer in the truth of Anna Marie’s teachings.  My mother had died a few months before the retreat, and during this meditation session, I clearly saw my mother’s face, and she was trying to reach me, attempting to push through a plastic-like veil. She could not pierce the veil, but I knew it was my mom and that she was guiding me to follow this path. This vision, furthered by Anna Marie's recommendation to read Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda, was my awakening to the transformative power of meditation and the reality of divine connection. I have maintained a deep and growing meditation and spiritual practice since.

Anna tells the story of her painful outer journey that turned into inner work. She performed alchemy that turned a tragedy into a spiritual awakening. This book is a guiding light for the journey through the most painful, traumatic experiences in life. She found freedom through devastating experiences that cause most people to fall apart. She used meditation as self-discovery and salvation back to the Source within. Furthermore, she has truly tapped into the unconditional love beyond the manifest, physical world. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has suffered from the loss of a loved one.
