What if sleep didn’t just heal the body-but opened a door to another world?Dr. Janet Petrie, a New York psychiatrist and sleep researcher, believes she’s on the verge of uncovering the biological purpose of dreams. But when her own insomnia and grief begin to blur the line between science and spirit, she slips into a mysterious realm of dark matter-a parallel dimension where the boundaries between life and death dissolve.As she navigates this strange, luminous world, Janet must confront her failing marriage, her husband’s dementia, and her son’s dangerous descent into addiction. When tragedy strikes, her journey through dreams becomes a quest for meaning, healing, and the possibility of redemption beyond the limits of the waking mind.Blisstopia is a hypnotic exploration of consciousness, loss, and the invisible threads that connect us across time and space. With poetic precision and psychological depth, author and psychiatrist Carol W. Berman invites readers into a story where neuroscience meets the metaphysical, and where the heart learns to find light in the darkest night.If you’ve ever wondered what lies between sleep and eternity, open Blisstopia and find out.Buy your copy today and step into the world between worlds.Carol W.
