A daring invitation to readers to discover and claim their identity and purpose through six rites of passage that show us how to find the spiritual freedom to thrive right where we are.
Women want to live their best lives in a chaotic and complicated world, but they know they can't do it alone. Author, teacher, and therapist Dr. Christy Angelle Bauman has been there-and she has dedicated her life to helping women grow spiritually and therapeutically into their best selves, finding wellness, overcoming disconnection from themselves and others, and discovering meaning and profound joy.
In “Her Rites”, Dr. Bauman takes you through the six most common rites of passage in every female's life:
• Birth: The work of claiming how and why you came into the world • Initiation: Coming of Age • Exile: The process of finding oneself • Creation: Bringing something new into the world • Intuition: Acquiring and owning intuitive the wisdom that comes with age • Legacy: Preparing to die well
By guiding reading through these rites, Bauman helps readers to find wholeness and self-knowledge. She includes ritual templates, liturgical scripts, and exercises in each chapter to counsel the reader through her story step by step on the way to integration and wholeness.
Bauman has seen again and again that by learning to pause, reconnect to ourselves and God, and mark the moments and rites of passage through which we travel, we can come home to ourselves and embrace the gift of flourishin.
