The Red Book

Author Sera Beak expands the range of divine possibility by showing readers how to express prayer through a variety of creative outlets: altars, rituals, spoken word, dance, song, art, writing, imagination, sharing, loving, breathing.

 

The Red Book offers a stripped-down, reclaimed, retuned, redecorated, re-energized experience of prayer that puts young women more closely in touch with their real selves, and brings them closer to knowing the divine. With hilarious stories, vivid examples, and clear and powerful exercises, author Sera Beak offers a unique hybrid perspective that bridges old religious doctrines with the new age of individualism, brought into focus for the needs of the modern young woman. Beak addresses common potholes along the spiritual highway – sputtering out, despair, the dark night of the soul, suffering, paradox, and the feeling of being “tested” by the divine -- and offers guidance, along with warnings for those who follow gurus. The Red Book is an invitation for women to crank up the spiritual intent behind their daily choices and add a luminous spiritual dimension to their lives.
