"Home is not an address. Home is where you feel safe. And your body is aching to be your home."-Lyvonne Briggs. How you view your body and your sexuality is informed and strengthened by spiritual practices, but how many of us can say that religion has drawn us closer to our bodies? That's because worship spaces that are intended to be spiritual safe houses have not historically been welcoming to our bodies, forcing us to leave our flesh at the door. This ideological amputation is at best a disservice and at worst a sin. The remedy? Radical self-hospitality. In Sensual Faith, Lyvonne Briggs charts a path for us to practice spiritual wellness that aligns and harmonizes our bodies with pleasure and sexuality. By centering the rich traditions of ancient West African spirituality, Sensual Faith offers a radically inclusive model of companioning one's self. Filled with wellness rituals, journal prompts, affirmations, and practices, Sensual Faith shows us how to celebrate our bodies as our very homes. "Pleasure is your birthright," writes Briggs, so whether it's accepting your flesh, nurturing your intuition, learning the language of consent, or sumptuous self-care, let radical self-hospitality guide you to healthy sexuality"--. $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Spiritual life. $0 (DLC)sh 85126758 650 0 $a Sex $0 (DLC)sh 85120549 650 0 $a Body image in women $0 (DLC)sh 97002859 650 0 $a Religious life $0 (DLC)sh 85112668 650 0 $a Spirituality $0 (DLC)sh 85126779 650 0 $a Self-care, Health $0 (DLC)sh 85119714 650 7 $a Self-Help. $2 local $0 (local)tlcaut2009328170365000 655 7 $a Self-help publications. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Electronic version: $a Briggs, Lyvonne. $t Sensual faith $b First edition. $d New York : Convergent, [2023] $z 9780593443200 941 $a 3 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230502010815.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230502010352.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20230329010356.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=07DF0ABECDF711ED9469B9D436ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b QW8Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
