Igniting the Inner Life
Book by Regina Sara Ryan
The inner life is the intrinsic spiritual dimension of existence. To ignite it is to make a pilgrimage within--to move from "out there" to "in here" in the orientation of life, work, choices and relationships. This book is immensely practical and is directed to anyone with a focus on spirituality, self-understanding, contemplative prayer, God or the awakening of the heart's knowledge regardless of the religious tradition they follow.
Regina has been a keynote speaker at our conference on "Mothering and Spirituality" and led a teleseminar with us around the chapters of her book The Woman Awake. She will be a featured presented, along with Rahima Baldwin Dancy at a workshop in February, 2011 on "Igniting the Inner Life through Parenting."
