I'm a Harvard trained scholar of comparative religions and mystcisim and an intrepid spiritual cowgirl who's spent the last dozen years traveling the world exploring spirituality --from whirling with Sufi dervishes to meeting the Dalai Lama on my 21st birthday; from taking the host from a Croatian Catholic mystic who had the stigmata (truly) to having life-altering visions with a shaman, and just about everything in between. I’ve lived in Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Cambridge, India, Nepal, Tibet, and Turkey, and now reside in San Francisco. I’m as comfortable talking about the pagan history of religious traditions, politics, and metaphysics, as I am about designer jeans, sex toys, and holistic health.www.spiritualcowgirl.comMy first book "THE RED BOOK: A DELICIOUSLY UNORTHODOX APPROACH TO IGNITING YOUR DIVINE SPARK was published late June 2006.I wrote The Red Book because I've found that many spirituality books are just too woo-woo, academic, serious, traditional, cheesy or boring for my spiritually jaded yet still spiritually curious generation. I wrote TRB because I grew giddy when I imagined what this planet might be like if more young women empowered themselves from the inside out. I also wrote TRB for roughly one million personal reasons that sound a lot like my heartbeat and taste a lot like chocolate and if spoken aloud would definitely make a priest faint.What the hell is it? "The Red Book" is nothing less than a spiritual fire starter—a combustible cocktail of Hindu Tantra and Zen Buddhism, Rumi and Carl Jung, Kali and Mary Magdalene, goddesses and psychics, shaken with cosmic nudges, meaningful subway rides, haircuts, relationships, sex, dreams, and intuition. It's a book that encourages women to live more consciously so they can start making clearer choices across the board, from careers to relationships, politics to pop culture and everything in between. For smart, gutsy, spiritually curious women whose colorful and complicated lives aren’t reflected in most spirituality books, The Red Book is an open invitation for women to find their true selves and start sharing that delicious truth with the world.And btw, guys like it too. And people of all ages. And pets.Right now I'm trying to get this puppy out into the world and need all the help I can get in spreading the red.
