Here is a new way of approaching spirituality - even re-defining what spirituality is, that doesn't require you to leave your family to join an ashram, nor to throw out your favourite clothes and don a loincloth, nor even to give up meat, wine and other carnal pleasures.

This provocative, funny and consciousness-changing story will lift your spirits while grounding you in the unshakeable knowledge that the assumptions and rules of the spiritual traditions we have all grown up with are rooted in our patriarchal societies and thus portray only half of the picture.

According to notable psychologist and consciousness teacher Dr Sidra Stone: "This book is just what the world needs now as our planet continues to move towards political and ecological disaster while the patriarchal systems that still dominate our thinking continue to devalue everything traditionally – and biologically – female.

"In a most perfect balance of yin and yang, of logic and feeling, of humor and gravity, Astra Niedra reclaims for all human beings – not just women – a precious element of that which is truly sacred in life. Her simple, spellbinding stories, her keen intellect, and her unfailing humor make this book a pleasure to read.

"Here is a new way of thinking of spirituality, of valuing our humanity while living a spirit-infused life, and a fascinating (and novel) path to enlightenment! It’s a consciousness changer and I loved it."
