Hands-On Spirituality

This is practical mysticism in action. College students explore spiritual practices that involve the body. In an atmosphere of safety and openness, experiences and insights abound. Students are brave, honest, and valiant. Their journals, quoted with permission, tell their stories of struggle, discovery, healing, and transformation. Various spiritual practices are presented, including: mantra, meditation, chanting, hatha yoga, tai chi, Thai healing massage, pipe ceremony, mandala drawing, labyrinth walk, dying simulation, and Dances of Universal Peace.
