Decolonizing the Self: A Latino Journey of Ancestral Healing

What lives within us that does not belong to us-but to those who came before?

In Decolonizing the Self: A Latino Journey of Ancestral Healing, Marisol Santiago weaves a powerful tapestry of psychology, spirituality, and cultural memory to explore how the legacy of colonization lives on in our bodies, beliefs, and emotions. Drawing on ancestral wisdom, epigenetics, and the practice of biodecodificación (biodecoding), Santiago reveals how inherited trauma, shame, and internalized oppression can be understood-and transformed-through conscious healing.

Each chapter guides readers deeper into the process of remembering and reconciling: from uncovering the hidden stories within the body to recognizing the "colonizer in the cell," to learning rituals of purification and forgiveness that restore balance to the lineage. Santiago shows that healing is not about rejecting any part of who we are, but about integrating Indigenous, African, and European roots into a harmonious whole.

A work of profound honesty and grace, Decolonizing the Self offers a map for those ready to face their ancestral wounds, reclaim their voice, and walk the path of spiritual sovereignty. It is both a mirror and a medicine for anyone seeking to turn inherited pain into ancestral power.
