Critics Review

“A guide into deeply integrative spiritual practice. With clarity and nuance, Ray shows us how to bring meditative awareness to the body and to listen to our most immediate and direct experience. His practice instructions are enlivening, pointing to the complete coherence of body and mind.”—Diane Musho Hamilton, author of Everything Is Workable “So many meditative practices take people away from the dark, juicy nether regions of their bodies.

Through these embodiment practices we access surprising wisdom in addition to profound somatic spiritual experiences.”—Richard Schwartz, Ph.D., developer of the Internal Family Systems model of psychotherapy
