Wisdom Walk: Exploring Practices from the World’s Spiritual Traditions

In 1984, Dr. Sage Bennet was suffering from a spiritual crisis. After completing her PhD and securing a coveted job as a professor at the University of Wisconsin, she still felt empty. At night she had trouble breathing, like a great weight was sitting on her chest. The crisis lifted when, through a chance encounter, she joined a meditation centre and began her own Wisdom Walk, a spiritual quest that would result in many life changes. Putting into practice the wisdom learned from many years of study, she developed an eclectic spiritual life that borrowed rituals from many religions and spiritual traditions, including Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism and Islam. In her new book Wisdom Walk , Bennet outlines some of the most powerful of those practices, making spiritual and religious traditions accessible without diminishing or losing respect for their more subtle nuances. With depth and respect, it provides an accessible, easy-to-follow guide for bringing the world’s spiritual traditions into your life through practical, powerful rituals.
