| Summary |
Complete with useful, provocative tools and down-to-earth teachings, Sweat Your Prayers is a radical new perspective on the architecture of the soul, revealing simple yet profound methods to integrate spiritual practice into everyday life |
|
In Sweat Your Prayers, movement and theater artist, author, and music producer Gabrielle Roth brings to us the insights of her lifetime of teaching personal and spiritual development. Roth has harnessed the raw power of rhythm into a path of self-realization that gives us a practice, a perspective, and a philosophy that allow us to celebrate the wild, ecstatic dancer within. Inside this dancer beats the heart of a tribal individual, the part of us that knows how to love, reminds us we are not alone, and inspires us to be our true selves. This book is an expedition through five universal rhythms - flowing, staccato, chaos, lyrical, and stillness. These rhythms catalyze motion deep in the psyche. Each is a practical tool of awakening that will release us to dance on the edge, to be outrageous, to transform suffering into art, and art into awareness |
