Book Description
Liberating meditation practices drawn from Black cultural traditions and Buddhism to bring forth courage, transform grief, defeat injustice, and manifest joy Many of us have come to think about justice as a “struggle,” a cause to fight for in the world. But what if the work of justice begins within? What if there were a way to find joy in the journey toward justice? With Joyfully Just, Dr. Kamilah Majied offers an inspiring and unique approach to overcoming injustice with joy, courage, and playful curiosity. She shares many of the insights and experiences that gave rise to her leadership as a joyful champion of contemplative approaches to mental health and social justice. Drawing on timeless wisdom from Buddhism and Black traditions, Majied invites us to play with different ways of being just toward ourselves and all life around us. Here, we discover how to: • Play with creative and artistic practices to develop critical consciousness and become more mindful, inclusive, and anti-racist • Explore language as a pathway to liberation and justice • Unlearn and heal from white supremacy, internalized racism, and other forms of oppression and bias By engaging with these practices, we are able to access the freedom that comes with tearing off the restrictive habits of privilege and internalized oppression as we allow our bodies, hearts, minds, and souls to be liberated, unafraid, and agentive in the world.

Money, Come Dance With Me
Author: Gale West
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781737634409
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
Money, Come Dance with Me, is an invitation to live in the joy and delight of dancing with money as a loving guide and friend. Author, Gale West, invites the reader to consider money's pure potential as a dynamic, living, force field of love, connecting of peoples, cultures and marketplaces. Unfortunately, few can experience money in this way, because it's been imprisoned in an old paradigm of domination and greed. Thus, the pain and trauma created through money is not money's fault. Instead, it aches to be an agent for good in the world. West's international bestselling book brings a refreshing new look at money's place in our lives from both a spiritual and highly practical perspective. It invites the reader to constructively heal personal and ancestral money wounds, become conscious co-creators with Divine Source, and embrace joyous wealth as a way of life beyond more in the bank. Filled with stories and simple practical "dance steps," Money, Come Dance With Me, guides the reader on a powerful journey of transformation, welcoming money as a loving partner in the dance of life. "With her book, Money, Come Dance with Me, Gale West gives us all a gift that will keep giving for a lifetime! Gale goes deeper than I have ever seen on the energy of money and the idea that we are each interconnected with money in the same way we are with friends and family. I love Gale's rich offering of simple steps we can take to dramatically elevate our relationship with money. As a CEO and former financial advisor, I see the vast potential this book provides for each one of us and the organizations we treasure!" Claire Lachance, CEO, Institute of Noetic Sciences "You have a relationship with money, whether you are aware of it or not. It is driven by your beliefs about money and will strongly influence how money treats you. Gale West has spent decades exploring this territory, developing practices to help unload the burdensome ideas that keep money from becoming the lubricant it should be to manifest your sacred vision." Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, Creator, Internal Family Systems Model "Money, Come Dance with Me is an invitation to have a powerful personal relationship with money that is inspiring and transformative, empowering actions that will individually and collectively transport us from our current self-indulgent, exploitative, resource-destructive Death Economy to a collaborative, compassionate, resource-generative Life economy, where all will thrive. I highly recommend it." John Perkins, New York Times bestselling author, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man

Diverse Modes
Author: Tan Kheng Yeang
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1466910801
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 165
Book Description
Diverse Modes, a new four-part anthology of verse by author and poet Tan Kheng Yeang, presents an array of poetic styles and themes. Division One is written in ordinary free verse, while Division Two explores free verse without punctuation marks. Divisions Two and Three offer two entirely new styles created by Tan-first, poetry that uses sentences with no finite verbs and, second, amorphous verse, which appears to be the same as prose in terms of style while retaining the lyricism of poetic language. Tan's keen sense of observation extends to everything under the sun, from the glories of nature to the wide range of human emotions. His insight extends to the very fundamental components of life and the building blocks of the universe. Indeed, the order of the universe possesses a lyricism best captured by the pen of the poet! News Avidity for news Screams the loudest human trait; When one encounters another They trade information About their friends and acquaintances And what has saluted their eyes and ears. The greatest purveyor of intelligence Is the omnipresent newspaper Which diurnally echoes events From all corners of the globe- Earthquakes and volcanoes, Floods and droughts, Robberies and murders, Riots and wars, Actions and plans of governments ...

Magenta
Author: Denis Beckett
Publisher: University of Kwazulu Natal Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 548
Book Description
Bart Dunn is your average South African white guy, distraught at crime and general bungling. But he also holds a rogue view - he sees up-sides to Africa, not just the sunshine and the wonderful vegetation, but the human factor. As Bart rollercoasters through the highs and lows of everyday life, South African style, he is convinced there is a way, somewhere, to grow the highs and shrink the lows. The trail propels him past the wrong end of various gunbarrels, the clutches of a right-wing rebel army, reluctant godfatherhood to a mixed-up teenager with an honor-grudge, and the alluring ankles of the woman he'd never dreamed he could dream of. The leads he has been looking for finally take shape when he meets a shantytown visionary. Bart remains skeptical. Everyone knows Africa needs a miracle. Who is this squatter-shack savant to claim that the morass is just an error, from which the next-phase of human advance will emerge? He must be wrong; but where, exactly, is the flaw in his startlingly simple recipe? Magenta is a utopian thriller - the likes of which you are guaranteed never to have encountered before. Beckett's formidable intelligence, deep love for his continent, and impeccable ear for 'Seffricanese' will have you laughing, gasping, and wincing in equal measure.
