Publisher's Synopsis
It's time to dream the beginning of the world instead of the end. In the midst of emergencies and cultural transformation, the skills of the healer need to take center stage. Right now, we need a solid and shared foundation for a miraculous global recovery, the possibility of wonder, unconventional remedies, and creative revival in our medicine. It is time for us to become the revolutionary healers that we have been waiting for, to embrace effective practices without apology or religious preference. Revolution of the Spirit is a vibrant call to action for all spiritual seekers searching for a guide to create sacred space in their lives and a priceless resource for practitioners who want to dive into the mystic and find evidence based solutions. Based in her own healing adventure with severe clinical depression and years of experience as a holistic medical practitioner, Gerri Ravyn Stanfield has created a breakthrough handbook that gracefully leads readers away from what makes us sick and towards nine ingredients to a more sacred life. While exposing the history behind the divorce between spirituality and wellness in both the Eastern and Western world, Stanfield explores nine ingredients to a spiritual medicine. Her Sacred Exploration exercises, Spiritual Inventory opportunities and Revolutionary Healer Dares offer a personalized challenge to release stagnant patterns and embrace these nine practices as medicinal, timeless and relevant. Revolution of the Spirit features interviews with authors, teachers, activists and practitioners to stimulate a timely conversation about the expansion of our collective health to include body, mind and spirit. Revolution of the Spirit is a peaceful takeover of the contemporary health care system on behalf of the sacred to instigate readers toward a bold vision of wholeness. It offers a dare to people in all stages of their healing journey to leave learned hopelessness behind and become spirited changers of our modern lives.
