Body of Wisdom

A chakra in our breasts that emits spiritual nourishment into life...a secret substance in our bodies to heal the earth...a direct connection from our wombs to the creative center of the universe...In Body of Wisdom, Hilary Hart identifies nine hidden powers alive in women's bodies and instincts, waiting to be used in contemporary challenges such as the creation of community, healing of the earth, and the restoration of life's spiritual nature. Based on interviews with the world's most visionary spiritual teachers and women's dreams and experiences, Body of Wisdom ushers in a new spirituality in which the body and the shared body of the earth are known as a seat of mystical power and women take responsibility for spiritual work that only they can do.
